Celebrity Apprentice: Team Changes, Comedy and OnStar (5/8/11)

This week was a jam packed three hour marathon show. Alot happened and alot changed. I've been trying to figure out how to sort this out since there were two seperate tasks. So I will just sort is out this way:

Teams to start show:
Team Backbone: Jon Rich, Lil Jon, Latoya Jackson, NeNe Leakes
Team A.S.A.P: Star Jones, Marlee Matlin, Meatloaf

Well NeNe got swapped over to Backbone to get her away from Star and that really pissed her off and she ended up quitting before she even got to officially join her team.

In this first challenge of the night, the teams had to recruit comedians and then put together a comedy show. This also was a fundraising challenge so the winning PM would get all the money raised for their charity.

Team A.S.A.P.-Winning Team
Project Manager: Meatloaf
In my opinion I wasn't rooting on the team, I was rooting on Meat. He got really emotional about gambling all the money that he raised for his charity and risking it all. So much that Jon Rich told him that if his team lost that he would personally match the money they raised (which ended up being $102,000). Alas Meat's team won and he got close to $190,000 for his charity which actually made everyone happy.

Team Backbone-Losing Team
Project Manager: Latoya Jackson
Well despite Jon Rich being able to get Jimmy Fallon to help on the show (and even wrote a fun song), they still didn't raise enough money to win. Latoya ended up being fired, literally a day after getting a second chance, mainly because she didn't raise enough money and was the PM. It was the right decision.

Teams now:
Team Backbone: Jon Rich, Lil Jon
Team A.S.A.P: Star Jones, Marlee Matlin, Meatloaf

The second challenge was to make a new promotional video for OnStar.

Team Backbone-Winning Team
Project Manager: Jon Rich
Why am I not surprised that the two of them won this? They had the better video. They showed off the project, emphasized the point of what they were advertising and even included special effects. The Jons are amazing together as a duo. They both deserve to be here.

Team A.S.A.P.-Losing Team
Project Manager: Marlee Matlin
This video was kind dull and boring especially since it was so short. The fact that they included a terrible cliche cop donut job sold it for me. What I didn't expect was the massive arguement between Meat and Star. The two of them went at it and it was entertaining to watch. When the smoke settled and Trump got down to the problem at hand, it was deemed that Star really couldn't get along with people so thus then she was fired.

Going into next week's show I am very happy with the final four, I have no real problem with anyone winning, but I am indeed rooting on Jon Rich.
