Stripped of Ivana (Finally, Someone Too Tacky for Donald Trump)
The Edmonton Sun ^ | 12/3/04 | Steve Tilley

Posted on 12/03/2004 9:50:05 AM PST by gopwinsin04

There are a lot of important life lessons that can be learned from NBC's 'The Apprentice.'

Things like 'passion and desire are key components to sucess' and 'you should never underestimate a competitor' and 'if youre a woman, you can get pretty much get anything you want by acting like a complete whore.'

One thing you cannot get by acting like a whore, though, is respect, and Ivana Ma, a 28 year old 'venture capitalist' from Boston found that out the hard way on last night's episode.

Dont get me wrong, I was as happy as the next guy to see Jennifer and Sandy dressed like a pair of streetwalkers, and happier still to watch Ivana take off her skirt and reveal her skimpy panties.

But it also made me a bit sad. I know, can you believe it? Disappointed by cheap sexual shenanigans that demean an entire gender? I think I must have the fever.

Sandy and Jennifer of the Mosaic team tried a slightly different tatic selling their candy bars on Wall Street in that they dressed like the 'M&M Sisters' which is apparently the new slang term for 'pair of bleached blond sluts who are almost too old to even make this look work.'

And work it they did, by traveling around in a van and preying upon groups of horny construction workers who eagerly bought the bars for $5.00 on the chance that Jen might drop their change and have to bend over and retrieve it.

When Ivana realized what the Mosaic strumpets were doing, her solution was naturally, was to offer to take off her skirt for anyone who paid $20.00 for the chocolate bar. Oh, the savage irony. Two minutes earlier she was saying Jen and Sandy looked like 'strippers from a cheap beer dive in Texas, with peanut shells on the floor.'

Then suddenly, she's flashing her snug fitting girlie panties for all the world to see, in a bid to out trollop the trollops.

When she realized that the long knives were out for her, Ivana finally came to life in the boardroom and had the gall to suggest that the hypereducated Kevin as 'not as smart as her,' and got a verbal spanking from Trump's underling Carolyn for being disrespectful to the Donald.

Ivana backpedaled and backpedaled and did just about everything else aside from dropping her skirt again, but it was to no avail: Trump axed her like a teenaged victim in a horror flick.

I've met a few girls in my life who concentrated so much on destroying me or someone they were jealous of that they ended up destroying themselves in the end. Ivana is very insecure.

Trump stated in the first season that "sex sells" and if you could use it to your advantage, it was okay.

There's a difference between being sexy and being a slut.

What Jen and Sandy did was smart and sexy. They dressed the part for selling to the general public.

What Ivana did was slutty. Pure and simple. We all now know what type of girl she is when the pressure is really on. I'm certian, that for the right amount of money she would have gotten naked. It's just a matter of haggling over the price.

Donald would have a tacky girl to match his tacky comb-over.

He probably just didn't like her cause she's named Ivana.

I bet Mr. Trump doesn't speak at to many "follower" conferences. She blew it more than once.

Speaking of poor conduct for an executive position, did anyone notice what she was wearing before she pulled her pants down?

Jen has cheated her way through tight situations i.e. the jeans fit wheel for instance.

Just browsing and have never watched the show, but did you mean to say "incredibly cunning stunt" or should it have been "incredibly stunning c***?"

[Jen] and losing every mission in which she was PM

Jen was the winning PM during the dog washing episode.

That seems like an in-depth report.
I have never seen the show.

And that is why i am saying it might be a very well-played stratagem.

And here is something else i wrote about Jen:

However Jen should not be ruled out. She is extremely smart (though she does not show it .....which could be a very judicious stratagem on her part since she is extremely underestimated by everyone on the show), and she is alluring/hypnotic/mesmerizing! She could snatch victory right under Kelly's nose.

Looks like the Olsens. I heard they do about $80M/year.

Before the spin-dry cycles.

Maybe you thought i said Jen was somehow dumb. She is not. I think she has not accomplished as much in the show as the other members of the final four (in terms of contributions as well as win/loss ratios), but i have said several times that she is accomplished in her profession and is probably the biggest (and more significantly only) threat to Kelly in the group.

I did not say Jen was not smart or that all she did was 'hypnotize' everyone (including her professors at college) to get by. What i did say is she has not accomplished much on the show, that she has managed to stealth her way through to the final four under the radar, and that i agree with some of the contestants who said she is a Fembot who hypnotizes.

I think she is playing quite adeptly, and i said in my opinion she will be in the final four and might just trounce Kelly (might). However she just has not excelled at all in the past few weeks, and has managed to sneak past through guile (eg when she literally stole Ivana's idea for the jeans catalogue that was in the form of a rotating circle by making it seem as if she came up with it in front of Trump ...tot he extent Trump congratulated her for it ....even when ironically she herself had been the number critic of the idea in the first place).

Again, I think Jen has not excelled in the show. But she is definitely smart enough to know who she needs to beat (two people in the next round and Kelly in the final), and she may just manage to pull it off.

I think Trump is aware of Jen's nonproductivity. I think he's more impressed by Sandy.

Ivana never had a chance to win. She can't control her emotions or her reactions. She wen't into the record-shipping repeat mode again last night and her emotions and body jerks are transparent. Trump wants a cool character and she ain't it.

It was funny when John Kasich interviewed Carolyn on Fox News. He started out by saying that he never watched the show and then proceeded to ask her plenty of questions about business, in general, but nothing about the show. Very interesting and she didn't seem to know how to react to him.

"what- no pictures?"

Believe me, you don't want to see this. It is not worth it for free, forget the 20 bucks some idiots paid.

Kevin. Although none are really even as good as Trump's sidekick Carolyn. Carolyn is smart and hot.
