You might not think the cast of All-Star Celebrity Apprentice knows anything about art — and you’d be right — but that didn’t stop Donald Trump from asking the celebs to make and sell their own creations on the show’s March 31 episode. Lisa Rinna and Lil Jon headed up the two teams, which called upon their many celebrity contacts to reach deeply into their pockets.

Come board-room time, Lisa said she’d ask back the two lowest earners — which happened to be Stephen Baldwin and Gary Busey — if her team lost the challenge. Fortunately for her, she didn’t have to put them on the spot, as her team made $225,000 and Lil Jon’s only made $179,500.

Omarosa Reveals Yet Another Dark Side

In a shocking (yet not-so-shocking) twist, Omarosa turned on Lil Jon at the drop of a hat. She told the Donald that Jon should be fired for his “laid-back” approach to being the project manager. Dennis Rodman also had to defend himself for under-selling his signed Derek Jeter bat.

Lil Jon called Dennis and Omarosa back to receive the Donald’s judgment, but most of the judging came from Piers Morgan, who pulled no punches with Lady O. “Did you just say ['integrity'] with a straight face?” he asked her.

Ultimately, Omarosa was fired. Yes, it’s true; someone finally took down the Big O!

“I knew that people would be gunning for me,” Omarosa admitted in the car ride from Trump Tower. (Duh!)

Could the self-proclaimed Queen of Mean have a soft side? Lisa Lampanelli breaks down in tears in this preview video from the April 15 episode of The Celebrity Apprentice, and unsurprisingly, no one seems to feel sorry for her — especially her arch rival Dayana Mendoza.

If you’re a regular HollywoodLife.com reader, you may recall me predicting that Lisa would emerge the winner this season — and while I won’t revoke that statement until Donald Trump actually fires her, this video certainly isn’t boosting my confidence.

Donald Trump tasked the teams with creating a commercial for Entertainment.com on the April 8 episode of The Celebrity Apprentice, but as always, the real entertainment came from the drama behind the cameras. With Teresa Giudice as project manager, Team Unanimous employed the old “sex sells” philosophy for their ad, while Dayana Mendoza‘s Team Forte took a much safer approach. So which team won the task?

Team Unanimous! The Entertainment.com executives liked the way their commercial showed how the app actually works, while Team Forte’s commercial focused too heavily on the characters.

Of course, the real surprise of the night was seeing Dayana actually getting along with Lisa Lampanelli. In fact, Lisa actually defended Dayana’s decisions against Lou Ferrigno, who sort of threatened to put Lisa through a wall. Lou was so mad at Lisa, he was shaking throughout the entire boardroom meeting; I was ready for him to rip off his suit and go all Hulk on her.

Lisa, Lou and Dayana ended up being the final three celebs in the boardroom, where Lou revealed he still hadn’t forgiven Lisa for calling him a “f—ing loser” last week. Dayana defended herself a little, but mostly sat in silence as Lou and Lisa went at each other’s throats.

Ultimately, Lou was the one fired.

“Take it back,” he told the Donald. “I don’t want to be fired.” But as we all know, the Donald’s decisions — much like his hair — are unwavering.

What did you think of this week’s Celebrity Apprentice? Did Lou deserve to be fired? Are you glad Aubrey is still in the competition? Cast your vote, and hit up the comments section below:

When you’re a contestant on The Celebrity Apprentice, feuds are par for the course — but what happens in the boardroom doesn’t always stay in the boardroom, which Dayana Mendoza discovered this week when Lisa Lampanelli cruelly mocked her Venezuelan heritage during a radio interview. Now, for the first time, the former Miss Universe gives HollywoodLife.com her exclusive response to Lisa’s racist attack.

“I understand that it’s Lisa’s job to make fun of people for a living,” Dayana tells us. “If poking fun at me can help her sell tickets to her shows, no problem, I am happy to help her put food on her table. However, when she uses racial slurs, she is not only targeting myself,  but degrading an entire hispanic culture.”

We couldn’t agree more! In case you missed Lisa’s original comments, she said:

“I actually would love to see [Dayana] giving birth. She’s a s**c! she’s going to do it f***ing soon, anyway. She’ll be knocked up before the end of the week.”

Lisa and Dayana’s feud heats up on the April 8 episode of The Celebrity Apprentice, and we’ve got an intense preview video below:

Celebrity Apprentice viewers were stunned when Patricia Velasquez was fired on the March 25 episode, but fellow contestant Clay Aiken used a different word to describe his reaction. “I was OK with that,” Clay revealed on the Today show. “Because it meant I was still there.”

Of course, Clay might not be in the competition much longer if Penn Jillette has anything to say about it.

“Last week, I had a little issue with Penn Jillette, and next week… I have a little issue with Pen Gillette,” he said. “It gets really explosive. … I don’t like to admit it, but it’s probably because we’re too much alike. He’s so smart! And he’s probably a threat to me. That can scare you a little bit and make you do things you wouldn’t normally do.”

Clay says Celebrity Apprentice is “20 times tougher” than American Idol, explaining that “you’re up at 5 a.m., you’re done at 10 p.m., it’s six days a week, and you’re doing stuff you don’t know how to do.”

It sounds like Clay is getting a taste of what it means to really work — and he doesn’t like it.

Donald Trump, 64, is not known for his beauty sense– he gets plenty of criticism for his crazy comb-over. But walking into his Mar. 2 appearance on The Late Show With David Letterman, Donald’s look was particularly unusual!

Unfortunately, it looks like Donald hit a bit of a wind tunnel, which caused a serious hair malfunction: his comb-over lifted in the wind and flew to the front of his head! Plus, we noticed that Donald seemed particularly bronzed. Was he wearing bronzer for the TV cameras, or was he the victim of a streaky self-tan? Either way, Donald was not having his best beauty day!

Don’t worry, Donald– we still love you! And we know you’ve got bigger things to think about than your beauty routine, like the next season of The Celebrity Apprentice and your soon-to-arrive grandchild! But if you’re going to run for president, may we suggest you hire a new stylist?

With his health improving every day, Bret is ready to get back to work!

I’m so glad to hear that Bret Michaels is recovering well after his sudden and shocking brain hemorrhage back in April — and I’m super excited to see him back on TV! People is reporting that Bret, 47, plans to sit down with none other than Oprah to talk about his health in an episode that will air May 19. And if all goes according to plan, Bret will be making his first LIVE appearance on the Celebrity Apprentice season finale May 23! 
”We really hope that Bret is well and able to join us at the finale,” Apprentice host Donald Trump tells the mag. “I have much respect as he is a fighter and strong competitor.”

Of course, there’s still the question of whether or not Bret would be participating in the finale as a competitor, or merely a bystander. It all depends on what happens on the show this Sunday! Bret is one of five remaining constants in the pre-taped competition, which also includes celebrity chef Curtis Stone, former WWE Diva Maria Kanellis, actress Holly Robinson Peete and the Princess of Darkness Sharon Osbourne.

Be sure to tune in Sunday at 9 p.m. ET on NBC to find out if Bret makes it through to the next round!

Now that Bret is fighting for his life, can you honestly say you don’t want him to win Celebrity Apprentice?

Bret Michaels‘ team, Rocksolid, got kicked around pretty hard on The Celebrity Apprentice last week — but they finally made a comeback on last night’s episode, winning Donald Trump‘s challenge and banking $40,000 for Bret’s charity of choice, the American Diabetes Association. But it was so bittersweet watching Bret celebrate his victory, knowing that he’s presently in the hospital under 24/7 doctor surveillance after suffering a debilitating brain hemorrhage. I don’t know about the rest of you, but Bret’s condition has definitely made me his #1 fan.

Now, don’t get me wrong — I think Bret is a great competitor, and I’d hope the best for him even if he was in perfect health. But the fact that doctors speculate his hemorrhage could have been connected to his own type 1 diabetes makes me even more hopeful that Bret will bring in as much money as he can to the American Diabetes Association. And the brief tribute message to Bret that aired after last week’s and last night’s episodes has really gotten to me both times.

It’s especially making me value him over Curtis Stone. I couldn’t agree more with what Sharon Osbourne and Cyndi Lauper said last night — that guy needs to go! He really does think he’s hot stuff, and he can’t see how his negativity is hurting his team. It was a big mistake sending Summer Sanders home last night over Curtis, just because she didn’t stand up for herself!
