Omarosa: "Honey you make cupcakes, I’ve worked at the White House…"
I never watched The Apprentice, so didn't understand the uproar over Omarosa. Now I get why white (and some black) people don't like her. For those who watch Scandal, who couldn't relate when Rowan said "You have to be twice as good as them to get half of what they have"?
There is nothing wrong with building yourself up, promoting yourself and furthering your "brand" but if you have to do so by continuously having to pull or drag others down to make yourself look better then I personally have no respect for you. IMHO that is what Omarosa does, that is her method of operation and if she is being looked upon as a role model for young African American women then I feel sorry for those who have bought into her methods to get a head in life.
Yes Donald Trump is in her corner, for one reasson only, because the ridiculous theatrics of a black woman on tv cause the Jerry Springer type fans to tune in and generate comercial revenue.
I have no respect for either Omarosa or her puppet master Donald Trump.
Exactly what I was thinking! LOL! Omarosa and her twin make some excellent points, but do undermine themselves with their own poor rhetoric.
To quote the butler in Gosford Park.
Dorothy, I'm especially
surprised at you.
..disappointed too as we have had some great talks.
I guess you've spent some time living in Canada because is exactly how dem gwan. I really can't take the Canadian style of skinning and grinning and then cutting someone up behind their back.
Well at least your true feelings have surfaced...they always do....and I now know to watch my back around you.

Not sure what you have been reading. I watch The Apprentice and she has never been held up as a role model for young Black woman...she is known as "the woman we all love to hate" and her particularly those with Piers Morgan have really helped the ratings on that show. Ditto when she backstabbed and sabotaged one of the of the other contestants.

I don't think is respect they are going for..is de ratings and especially de dollahs dem a deal wid. When she is on it does boost ratings...that is why he has brought her back 3 times.
She is also right about you can be White and mediocre and still make it. The "Donald and I" bit was more than a bit extra.
Bethany is no dummy either. Clearly Bethany knew exactly what she was doing by paying her $10,000 to come on the show and boost HER ratings.
Don't take my word for it. Up until now I didn't even know Bethany had a talk show. Her BFF Ellen described her show as "sinking" and told her to zip it about her divorce if she wants them to get better.
Here’s How To Save Your Sinking Show: Ellen DeGeneres Tells Bethenny Frankel To Stop Talking About Her Divorce
Ellen DeGeneres has told her protégée Bethenny Frankel to zip it and stop taling about her bitter divorce from husband Jason Hoppy if she’s to have a chance of rescuing her sinking talk show, RadarOnline.com has been told.
As we revealed, Frankel’s new daytime talk show has limped to a disappointing #13 among her talk show peers, falling behind big names like DeGeneres and Dr. Oz – even less popular shows hosted by Steve Wilkos and Rachael Ray. “Ellen wants Bethenny to stop yakking about the divorce because there is a public perception that she’s to blame for the split,” a source close to the situation told Radar. PHOTOS: Reality TV’s Hottest Stars “Jason is very sympathetic figure — a doting dad — and quite frankly, many of Bethenny’s viewers and fans don’t understand why she dumped him. “Whenever Bethenny opines about how hard the divorce has been on her and bemoans that Jason wasn’t the love of her life, viewers turn the channel.

Damage Control? Ellen DeGeneres Appears on ‘Bethenny’ To Declare She’s Not ‘Distancing’ Herself From Ratings-Starved Talk Show
Trouble in the talk show world? Bethenny Frankel’s struggling television show is bringing out the big guns on Wednesday with her good friend Ellen DeGeneres to shoot down
“During Bethenny’s trial run, DeGeneres pulled some strings and got Justin Bieber to come on. DeGeneres’ former booker is now working for Bethenny but he’s been unable to get Sandra Bullock, Gwyneth Paltrowor Miley Cyrus. The big name celebrities don’t want to go on a talk show hosted by a former Bravo housewife. It’s causing major drama behind the scenes of Frankel’s show, which is struggling in the ratings,” the source said about the talk show hosts’ relationship.

From what I could tell on the one episode of the show I saw with her husband, he probably dumped her as she became too much of a legend in her own mind but that is another story. (See thread in Relationships). I've only seen Housewives once and the show with her husband once...man was she putting him down.
If you ever book Omarosa on a talk show, prepare to get read. She comes prepared to snatch a wig or two!This week, she didn’t hold back as she slammed Bethenny Frankel, on her own show.
It all started, back in 2010, when Bethenny visited The View and had some choice words when the hosts attempted to compare her to Omarosa. Bethenny got offended, and told the hosts that she is different because she has a realbrand, a show, and two New York Times best-sellers under her belt. From there, Omarosa snapped back by claiming Bethenny’s hubby was gay, and calling her a EDIT and things got pretty ugly!
Yesterday, three years later, the ladies sat face-to-face and the claws were out as Bethenny tried to deny that she ever talked bad about Omarosa, and she claimed that she never said, “I have a real career.” She was so adamant that she didn’t say those words that she bet Omarosa $10,000 and ended up losing it moments later when they pulled up the transcript online. [ How embarrassing!]
From there, Omarosa popped off about white privilege after Bethenny asked her to explain exactly what her brand was:
I’m unapologetic about being a strong, African American woman who does not apologize. It’s different for you and I. I’m an African American woman. You get to walk around and be mediocre and you still get rewarded with things. We have to be exceptional to get anything in this business.
I think it’s important to understand that you don’t stay a decade on television, on reality TV, without being smart and creating a brand that people want to see. If the audience didn’t want to see Omarosa, they would never book me again. You booked me to be on your show today. There’s a brand there. There’s a commodity.[...]
You’re not [COLOR=#009900 !important]walking[/COLOR] in your own truth. The moment you accept your real truth, everything is going to open up for you. Everything, your happiness, your joy, your relationships, but it cannot happen until you accept your own truth. Truth is, 10 years later I’m still here. I hope that you’re still here a year from now.
The conversation continued:
Bethenny: I meant what I said. You do have a career. I invited you here because you know — I don’t think that you have a brand. I think that you’re infamous. I’m on [COLOR=#009900 !important]the show[/COLOR] because I want to give a point of view. I don’t think you have a brand–
Omarosa: Honey, you made cupcakes. I worked in the White House. Get a grip.
Bethenny: What’s your brand?
Omarosa: I’m a strong businesswoman who celebrates in being smart — and there is a brand in being smart.
Bethenny: Your brand is smart? So Omarosa’s brand is being smart. Is that in yourbusiness plan?
Omarosa: Oh, absolutely. Hear this out, you’re entitled to your opinion, but you’re not entitled to your own facts. I have an accomplished career.
Bethenny: What is it? What is your business?
Omarosa: I teach young people and I hope that the young people don’t get discouraged from watching two women who have an opportunity to put things behind them. We have a chance to turn this thing around.
Bethenny: No we don’t.
Bettheney was on point here...she really let this 22 year old former teen mom and porn start have it about her poor parenting.
She said "I'm good". Clearly she wasn't.
'She's very rude!': Farrah Abraham takes a swipe at Bethenny Frankel for grilling her on how she's raising daughter.. and says host is in a 'dark place'
Farrah Abraham is one mad talk show guest.
After being grilled by Bethenny Frankel over her parenting skills to her daughter Sophia, aged four, and having an audience member call her 'crazy' during a taping last week, the Teen Mom star is hitting back.
On Monday - the same day her talk show interview is set to air - she told RadarOnline her host was 'rude' and was bent on making her look bad, even telling people to not buy her sex toy line.
'Before going on the show, I was told that it would be a positive and inspirational talk for mothers and business women,' Farrah, 22, told Radar in an exclusive interview.'But as soon as I met Bethenny, it turned into a judgmental zone. She did not like how I valued my daughter’s opinion and care so much about her that I allow her to have her own voice.'
The pin-up reality star has said such outrageous things as Sophia has her 'her own life' and her 'own friends,' and done such unusual things like waxing her daughter's eyebrows. During the sit-down, Farrah, who has been dating Brian Dawe, let it slip that she did the waxing while her daughter was asleep, further raising eyebrows.
'I actually got a lot of fan mail from girls who were younger, who did have uni-brows and they only wished that their moms would have helped them,' Farrah stated during her interview.
'My head is going to pop off. I swear. That is crazy,' said the audience member. 'You're making a little girl believe that without you plucking her eyebrows she won't have pretty pictures. She's four, she's beautiful.'
The sometimes model was miffed that the eyebrow waxing was even discussed.
'She brought up very old misconstrued tabloid topics like my daughter’s unibrow and had judgmental women who were in the audience act disrespectful towards me and twist my opinion — as a mother, I care about my daughter’s hygiene — to suggest Sophia would not be beautiful, even if she had a unibrow,' Farrah argued to Radar.
'It was rude and I felt Bethenny siding with these women and their untrue statements.'
Ah pobrecita!
Bethenny - who is a single mom herself to daughter Bryn, aged three, who she had with estranged husband Jason Hoppy -
Hold on a second....she , got pregnant THEN married him and was brazen enough to flaunt all of that openly on TV. I actually did feel sorry for her in the one Episode of Houewives I saw when the blonde was mean to her but lost sympathy for her when she did that.
... let the audience member go on for a while, but then interrupted.
'Okay, someone just said so much for the no judgement zone and I don't invite people on here to beat them up,' says Bethenny, 42. 'That's not what this show is about. It's about having a conversation so we can all get to the next place. So are you okay?' Farrah said she was 'good.'
But on Monday the MTV favourite told Radar that Bethenny was 'degrading to women.'
During the show, Bethenny pointed out that Farrah had a sex toy business, and she also tried to encourage the audience to not purchase her line because she was 'a Teen Mom and that’s all' she'll ever be, Farrah said.
Good for Bethenny though really, she shouldn't talk she was older than Farrah was when she got pregnant and should have known better.
'This was very rude as my life has moved on from all of this, plus, it made no sense at all being the first release of the sex toys are for men not women,' said the single mother.
No Bethenny was not being rude. The society is sliding further and further into the cesspool and someone has to take a stand but Bethenny is hardly in a position to cast the first stone.
