The results are in and Black folks have a new person at the top of their S**T list. But it's not who you think... It's Mark Burnett, creator of the Apprentice (and every other decent reality show out there.) "Why," you ask? Simply, from a pool of more than 1 million applicants-- across two seasons-- he managed to pick the two craziest Black women in the country to participate in this high profile game show... Omarosa and Stacie J. Let's backpedal.
Omarosa probably slipped through the cracks because she interviews well. I can imagine her presentation of good-looking credentials, stylish flair and diva attitude that TV producers salivate over. BONUS! She worked at the White House. But by the end of her run on Apprentice 1, it was obvious that she was a two-faced, conniving liar that was willing to do or say anything to suit her purposes. I weep for her husband...
Fast forward to Crazy J... First red flag, "Don't I recognize her from somewhere?" Yep, she's a model. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but there aren't many high profile models running major corporations...except in movies. But she's a restarateur! Ummm, actually, she owns a Subway sandwich shop. That's like calling the manager of gas station an oil baron. She's a FRANCHISEE as far as I'm concerned. And so we're on the same page, that's not a bad thing either, but we're establishing a pattern of burnishing the truth, n'est-ce pas?
So we have this strikingly beautiful RESTAURATEUR and the first thing she does is freak out her WHOLE TEAM by vigorously extolling the divinational powers of a "Magic 8 ball!" Has this chick never seen a reality show in her LIFE! Did she not witness how Kwame's "keep below the radar" strategy took him to the final two? Did she not see how quickly Omarosa became the most reviled reality persona in recent memory.
Sistuh, PLEEEZ! Armed with her melt down, the majority of the barracuda brigade at "Apex Corporation" wasted no time in putting her on the chopping block for the next two weeks. She caught a break when Bradford got suckered punched out of the game. By all rights, worthless Ivana should have been packing last week. But with Ivana's "borderline psychotic" estimation of Stacie's mental health and the solidarity of the rest of those pit vipers, she couldn't escape the ax this week. Kudos to "the Jennifers" for at least trying to keep it real and mentioning that over-budget Maria should have been the one fired this week.
Alas, the game is over for Stacie J; at least she'll sell a grip of Subway-branded Atkins wraps this week.
