Anywhere this Kenya goes, drama follows. Vivica Fox Calls Out Kenya Moore For Stealing Her Phone After solidifying her spot as the twirling epicenter of nearly all bird beef on Real Housewives of Atlanta , it looks like Kenya Moore is taking her crazy on reality TV tour with an appearance on Celebrity Apprentice. We’re not sure if she thought this move would catapult her into NeNe Leakes-level notoriety , but it seems to have backfired as she has reportedly easily become the most hated cast member in Apprentice history. Reports have surfaced that she was very harshly fired by Donald Trump after stealing Vivica Fox’s phone and sending catfishy tweets about the woes of menopause and 50 cent’s appearance to Vivica’s 244k followers. Via DailyMail : Fiery Kenya, 43, appears on the new season of the NBC reality show and had a spectacular fall-out with actress Vivica Fox during filming – in which she tweeted a message from Vivica’s phone complaining about the menopause. She also had blow-ups with fellow contestants, Cosby Show actress Keshia Knight Pulliam and Brandi Glanville, a source confirmed. And we’re told that Mr Trump was left furious by the Detroit-born former beauty queen’s behavior on the show during filming over the past few months. A source said: ‘Kenya was fired and it was really one of the most brutal firings ever seen on The Apprentice. ‘She stole Vivica Fox’s cell phone and posted a message on Twitter complaining about the menopause pretending it was from Viv. ‘And that’s not forgetting her rows with Brandi and Keisha. Mr Trump had truly had enough of her by the time it was time to fire her ‘He told he ‘You’re the most evil woman I’ve ever met in my life’. All this drama and the official lineup of Celebrity Apprentice hasn’t even been announced yet! Kenya’s a little crazy no doubt…but EVIL? She must really be cutting up during filming. The tweet in question, where “Vivica” complains of acting a fool due to menopause and claiming that “50 Cent just isn’t sexy,” has since been deleted. Vivica had some choice words for her phone thief via Instagram on Tuesday evening. Hit the flip to see what she had to say.

The L.A. County D.A. has reduced the felony vandalism charge against Lil Za, who smashed a jailhouse phone while in custody this winter, to a misdemeanor. The stated reason for the change is that the phone Lil Za smashed was worth less than $400, the threshold for felony vandalism. But there’s also this: Lil Za: Arrested for Drugs! His pal Justin Bieber will be likely charged with misdemeanor vandalism for egging his neighbor’s house … to which he inflicted much more damage. Charging Za with a felony for the phone assault when the pop star caused an estimated $20,000 in damage to the home screams of racial profiling. Za himself said to look at his skin color after the arrest and felony charge, and it’s likely officials did, as they reduced the charge against the rapper. As for the ecstasy found on the Lil guy when they both got popped for the egging, he’ll likely plead down that charge as well when the case goes to court. TMZ reports that drug diversion, which would require him to take classes and/or rehab as well as tests but keep him out of jail, is the predicted outcome.

Brandi Glanville and Kate Gosselin both became famous without doing a lick of work and they clearly have no intention of changing their ways now. The somehow still relevant reality stars traded in their signature attire (form-fitting cocktail dresses for Glanville, fleece and sweats for Gosselin) for the trademark red cap and shirt of the Pie Face bakery staff while shooting season 14 of Celebrity Apprentice . But as workers and customers at the growing NYC chain soon realized – you can put the girls in a uniform, but you can’t make them work. One onlooker described the pair as “not really working at all” and noted that they appeared to be keeping their distance from one another. “I know my kids’ names, if you want to ask that,” Kate bafflingly joked to a customer. The remark reportedly earned her a hateful glare from Brandi. Shawn Johnson, Leeza Gibbons and Kenya Moore of Real Housewives of Atlanta fame were also on hand as the ladies compete for a place in Donald Trump’s heart. Apparently some people consider that a prize. Celebrity Apprentice Cast Pics: Who’s In? Open Slideshow 1. Kate Gosselin Kate Gosselin is a pretty terrible human being.
