LaToya Jackson will be on 'The Celebrity Apprentice'

[morsmordre]

I can't believe that NeNe said that stuff. It was horrible. I disagree with NeNe that it wasn't Latoya's win - it absolutely was her win.

I was surprised that Hope wanted to throw Latoya under the bus, too. Latoya is the only one on the girls team that I like now.

I don't understand why they all seem to be out to get her... I mean she has never attacked either of them. What Nene said to her was plain rude when she called her an "old woman". I can't wait to see her go..

Mark was stupid to have said that he would take the blame before they found out if they lost. Gary needs to get fired ASAP!

 

[ginvid]

Not only did Nene call her old but also called her Casper. What a classless prick! I do not like her one bit. I hate women who are all mouth and if someone tries to check them on it, they start crying. She's so weak. I like when LaToya said they were cut from a different cloth.

 

[gerryevans]

Woo hoo! Go LaToya, go! You showed those backstabbing B*****s! I didn't expect to be cheering for LaToya so much when this season began but after witnessing the negativity of the other women week after week and how LaToya carries herself with quiet dignity I really want her to do well.

Oh Lord how incredibly rude and classless of Nene, calling LaToya an "old lady". That woman is disgusting.

Nene totally crossed a line. And I don't know what planet she's floating on that she can say whatever she wants negative about LaToya in the boardroom, but a negative comment about her gets her foaming at the mouth. She's a big mouth idiot.

 

[suzynyc]

Yikes, did you all see the preview for next week? LaToya cooking over flames and big mouth Nene's (yet again) rude comment? This time she's using Michael for her rudeness. Somebody smack her (don't do it LaToya, heh).

I really like that LaToya sees right through these women, she remained strong and didn't let them break her down. And yet through it all she never stooped to their level. I love it!

 

[morsmordre]

^I didn't see the preview.. what happened?

 

[Love.him]

Not surprised that LaToya managed to get a win. Those women feel threatened by her. It's interesting that no one goes after Hope. They enjoy hanging out w/her but she doesn't seem to do much.

 

[suzynyc]

Well, they show LaToya cooking on a flaming barbecue or something. Then they cut to Nene saying LaToya was about to do a Michael Jackson on her (can't recall her exact words). It's another mean comment about the MJ fire accident.

They won because the men fucked up ...Latoya was pathetic as a "project manager". She has absolutely no managerial skills...She is NOT an entrepreneur as she is claiming.

I still can't believe the women won...they were THAT bad as a team.

 

[noirnoar]

Wow...that is all I can say. But what on earth is going on with Nene? In my opinion she has big loud mouth, but also it seems, she can be very easy manipulated. It seems that she conveys the atmosphere inside the girls team. I can't believe it, that she actually cannot control herself. Nene, Nene, when you think she is strong, she comes out very foolish. When Donald told all that girls team won, then addressed to Nene, telling her that she should apologize to LaToya, she shakes her head, and says No. Hm...I can not see Nene as a winner in any project. In short term she is good, but on long term project, I think she loses it.
Latoya did good, her team won. She could have done better if she used Hope, who knows. ASAP won. Backbone lost. Gary seems to have short term memory. I have to say I do enjoy men's team, a little more, they are very creative, very risky, and not very into mind games. I think Star wants to win no matter what for her charity, and she is manipulating the entire group, with her mind games. Her only advantage is computer/software skills, that all girls do lack.
Nene snapping on Latoya was so unnecessary. I still can't wrap my mind around it. :nooo:

 

[DMGJACKSON]

Nene needs to shut her mannish mouth ! on top of today's episode and the up-coming Inappropiate comment/Joke towards latoya about her Beloved brother Michael..I mean what a lack of control of Judgement and speech!
''trying to do the Michael Jackson'' wth??!! stupid fire comment:
leaky chic you don't want a taste of the stomp and kick Jackson style ,otherwise Respect Is In order.

Yes, I agree with you.
LaToya was the image of class, grace, and beauty. :agree:

Latoya wasn't the best project manager, but I didn't think that she was pathetic. You have to give her credit for realizing that she needed something more, and coming back with the winter/snow idea the next morning.

Her team clearly didn't want her to suceed. They've been setting her up to get fired for the last few weeks, and this week they thought they had their chance to take her down. I kind of think that Latoya is going to regret winning this task - things are probably just going to get worse for her. Star, NeNe, Marlee, and Hope aren't going to give up.

That is the excuse she has been using. She was a horrible PM #Fact

But by some miracle she won, so good for her.

But the whole show is a big joke to me. And Donald Trump firing Mark over Gary Busey proves my point.

She has been using it as an excuse, but it's true. They did the same thing to Lisa in the second episode.

Trump was obviously considering ratings when he made the decision to fire Mark. Gary is just more fun to watch than Mark.

Mark went home because he basically challenged Trump to fire him, and you NEVER do that. If he didn't do that and also brought Meatloaf back in with him, Gary could have went home.... But it was MARKS FAULT and no one elses...
LaToya wasn't the best PM but she wasn't horrible... Marlee doesn't even like LaToya and I'm sure if she was that bad she would have said so. The womens team NEVER do well in the creative task. The men always beat them. Its not just Toya NONE of them are creative. In the beginning I was like damn Toya you need to get it together and it looked like she was going home.. Then in the end she turned it around with that snow theme. Also she was the one who came up with the theme, not her teammates, they did what was asked though. The thing about the womens team is that they only do what they are told, so if something goes wrong, then they can't be blamed. They all are very catty and they don't work together well. Nene ran up to Don Jr and complained about LaToya before they even knew who won or not.. They also throw each other under in the boardroom before they even know the results. Nene is also just negative... Idk how many of you are Real Housewives of Atlantas fans, but this is finally the real Nene you are seeing.

I kinda agree the men did blow it, but they didn't win based on the theme, which is the reason the women won.

I agree... It wouldn't look bad on them if every week they weren't putting Toya down even though the execs gives her praises. I understand their critizm about Toya but they make it seem as if its her fault they were losing. Then she isnt as outspoken as some of them and they see it as weekness... I'm surprised but Toya does speek up for herself in the boardroom. The women just love to bash each other. Star has been pretty quiet but Nene sure is filling the void for her.

The women only have confidence in a few players, if you aren't one of those, then they won't really support you... But as Marlee said Toya is more of a Macro manager than a Micro manager... (macro- delegates but still gives you freedom to do and add more.. Micro- gives a more direct task). Toya could have also been a stronger leader, she should have put Hope in that swimsuit.

They won because the men fucked up ...Latoya was pathetic as a "project manager". She has absolutely no managerial skills...She is NOT an entrepreneur as she is claiming.

I still can't believe the women won...they were THAT bad as a team.

However, Latoya can hold herself with class and a certain poise. Latoya knows how speak confidantly without any hesitation. I enjoyed seeing Nene running her mouth while Latoya simply responds, "Nene, I'm right here, you don't have to shout." Very true that Latoya and Nene are "cut from a different cloth". I'm still rooting for her.

However, in recent interviews Nene and Latoya been saying they now call each other and are on friendly terms I guess.

 

[Roosje]

I feel so sorry for the men. What to do with Gary? I cringe every time he opens his mouth. He is impossible. LaToya did fine and when at first I thought she was just sweet but not really intelligent, I'm starting to think she's not just sweet but a really good person and also smart. Still I doubt she could ever win this. Nene was so nasty. Star was lukewarm this time, as was Marlee. And Hope is just utterly forgettable. I don't understand how she is still there.

I agree about Gary being more of a ratings draw, but with two other contestants being fired for volunteering to be fired, for Mark NOT to have been fired too at this point would have been wrong.
Mark was overly confident that his team won. He thought the pirate theme was uber great and put himself out there, not thinking he was making any sacrifice because he wasn't going to lose. His ego blew it for him.

 

[ruchie]

I really want Latoya to win the whole thing.The rest can go and eat to Gravy train dog food. I mean Trump would have to have a good reason to Fire Latoya but if he did that he'll make some of us fans angry because of The Friendship between Him and Michael or is it because he can brag that Michael and Lisa Stayed at his Hotel for a spell and since Michael is not with us ,Trump will have full reign to fire her. But Latoya did the best she could and I'm glad The Women won for a Change but The Guys are still ahead with the fires at 2 while the women are at 3 fires.FIRE NENE PLEASE.TOO MUCH MOUTH... Marlee looks like she'll throw Daggers and Star is ready to sue anyone at any moment and the other gal,I think Trump is eyeing his next wifey. LOL
GOOD LUCK BIG SISTER LATOYA,I'm Rooting For Yah.

Go team latoya!!

I was really impressed by how Latoya handled herself while NeNe went crazy. I couldn't do that. If NeNe said stuff like that to me, at the very least, my champagne would have ended up in her face.

Speaking of champagne, wasn't it sad that no one on Latoya's team seemed to wanted celebrate their win with her? Latoya should have had her moment to shine with her team, and instead she gets Star, Marlee, and Hope sitting on the couch, looking glum, and NeNe screaming at her.

I liked Gary after the art project, but all of my goodwill went away after last night's episode. He was just horrible last night. He is entertaining, though.

My perception of Latoya changed a lot, too. I think that she's a lot more intelligent than she's given credit for. Also, she just seems like a genuinely nice person.

I really want Latoya to win, but I doubt that it will happen. The sharks are circling now, so I wonder how much longer she's going to last.

Yeah, you're probably right. Mark shouldn't have said that he would take the responsibility if they lost. He was just too confident in his idea and in his team. I think that he forgot about Gary when he was saying that stuff.

 

[enlightenu]

Congrats to LaToya for winning for the women's team---albiet barely. I was a little worried about her because it did seem like she was blank as to where she wanted to go; but she was able to get it together.

Now with the rest of the women. LaToya is not being paranoid nor super-sensitive. Those women (especially the big 3: Star, Nene, and Marlee) have been on LaToya for weeks accusing her of basically not doing anything, just skating by and not stepping up. However, I find it strange that Hope has managed to escape them even though she has appeared to contribute even less than LaToya.

I wish LaToya would have been a better project manager (for example, she should have used Hope as a model); but considering what she was dealing with in her team, I think she did ok. It's hard to keep your bearings when you know there are people in your team that have repeatedly under-estimated you and just waiting for you to fail so they can pounce on you in the board room; and those women wanted her to fail.

I was a regular watcher of Atlanta Housewives so I am familiar with Nene's big mouth and literal in your face tactics. At times, I like Nene because she can be funny and she's forthwright (when it's not laced with meanness). But it was low of her to pick on LaToya like that....calling her 'Casper'.....come on, we all know what she was hinting at. And then talking about LaToya only getting by because of her last name. Excuse me, Nene, you've only been known for just 3 years and that was only by being a brash, bigmouth bully on a reality show--boo, boo.

I notice how even Hope have kind of joined in. I think it was because she was mad at LaToya for not using her as the model for that sunscreen they were advertising. So I guess LaToya is now on her ish list.

I've been impressed with LaToya so far. Yes she has an annoying baby voice. Yes she can come of as kind of kooky. But the woman is not a dummy. She's a lot smarter than what she has been given credit for. And she played a large part in the women winning last week as a teammate. And even though she started out shaky, she enabled the women to have another win this week.

That was really sad. They should have celebrated with LaToya instead of wishing or helping her (unsuccessfully) to fail. These women are not team players.

It was never mentioned in the boardroom that LaToya went over budget. Guess it wasn't as big a problem as Star tried to make it? I'm glad LaToya stood her ground with these bossy loud mouths.

 

[ginvid]

Did anyone from NY watch the news afterwards to see who Trump said he had a soft spot for on the show? I was wondering if he said LaToya.

 

[marebear]

Nene should apologize to Latoya for her comments especially the old, casper and now if she brings up Michael and his fire accident. That's not right. I really hated that Casper comment. It rubbed me the wrong way and I just thought how Nene was ignorant. If they are talking now post show then maybe Nene apologized or something. I know I wouldn't talk to her if she didn't. It's one thing to want to win but it's another to get personal and attack someone. That is classless no matter what.

 

[prettygirlmj]

I watch the show for Gary Busey. The man is just so crazy and out there....love him. When he gets fired, that's when I think I stop watching the show.

From the little I cared to watch in the women's team, Latoya didn't know what the hell she wanted. In the end, by default, I don't like LaToya because of her betrayal to Michael years ago, so I really try to blank out when she comes on my TV screen. When Nene called her casper, that was dead wrong. People who made fun of MJ would say cruel things like that about his skin. And LaToya doesn't even have vitiliago. That was wrong. What I did like was when Nene said she gets by with the famous Jackson name. That's fact. At least LaToya didn't go crazy and walked away.

I was also put off about her reference to Michael's Pepsi commercial incident. "She's trying to do a Michael Jackson Pepsi on me." How Unclassy.

I agree with all points in your post, except the Atlanta Housewives one, because I've never watched it.

But I think LaToya gets badmouthed, and Hope is virtually ignored, because LaToya has an existing friendship with Trump. Remember, in the first show when everyone addressed him as Mr. Trump, she called him Donald. And then Trump did the apparently unforgiveable, he generously praised LaToya in the first couple of shows. They've been ripping her every since, and she's smart enough to realize that's part of the reason. They want to lower his opinion of her.

I also agree with all this, accept the Housewives part. I also never saw Nene on that show.

 

[MJFan07]

I have to agree with everyone that's saying this show has changed their opinion of Latoya. I never thought badly of her before, but I did find her to be a little too much. Something about her irked me. However, on the show she comes off as very classy and graceful. I think she is the only female (other than Nikki Taylor, who also came off well on the show) that hasn't come off as rude or childish. I definitely have a new found respect for her.

I think she's got a shot at making it a long way. I don't think Donald will fire her unless she really messes up because she's performed well up to this point and he definitely has a fondness towards her. I'd love to see her win!
