Celebrity Apprentice Recap: A Reversal of Fortune

Did Team Prima manage to beat out Team Arete? That was one of the more pressing questions on the latest episode of Celebrity Apprentice. Team Prima realized they were losing their ladies quickly after the loss of Snooki.  The teams met up at the Peterson Automotive Museum to be briefed on their next task. Both teams were in charge of creating a full photo campaign for Kawasaki motorcycles.  Kyle was named the project manager for Team Prima, while Carson was the manager for Team Arete.  There was some confusion over what the men were actually doing, but it seemed like they were planning on using naked drag queens for their pictures.  Kyle stepped back from giving ideas to the team because her most recent ones only got the team in trouble. Brooke decided to call in her husband for a photo shoot as the face of the campaign.  However, tensions flared when David worried that he would not look masculine enough if he had his picture taken on the back of a bike. Is this dude for real? In the boardroom, Gemma told Team Prima that David deciding at the last minute to sit at the front of the motorbike ruined their campaign.  Team Arete won… again! Kyle was upset that her team lost again and quizzed Patrick about what went wrong for them, but he was quick to point out that this was the third time she had cost her team a win.  Kyle took Brooke and Porsha with her back into the boardroom. It was definitely odd that she opted to choose them when you consider the fact that the pair contributed a lot.  After a huge argument about who was at faults, Kyle was terminated.  Arnold grew concerned about the women losing pretty much every competition and decided that it was time for the teams to be changed up.  Vince, Chael and Carson joined up with Lisa and Porsha, while Brooke and Laila joined Jon, Boy George, Matt and Ricky.  The teams were then told they would create a candy, and the aim was to sell the most. Team Prima were quick to start selling, but Team Arete were concerned about the quality of the product.  Team Arete was struggling, but then PK and Dorit showed up from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills with $80,000.  In the end, Team Prima eked out the win by making over $378,000.  Ricky refused to accept defeat and chose Jon and Laila to return to the boardroom. This was the first time this season that the right people were all in the boardroom.  After much back and forth, Arnold was quick to reveal he could not get over the fact that Jon only sold $500 of products and he was terminated.  They really are dropping like flies on this show.  What did you think of the latest drama for the stars? Hit the comments.  View Slideshow: Celebrity Apprentice Cast: REVEALED!

Here’s How President Obama Is Spending His Last MLK Day In Office

President Obama’s Last MLK Day Today January 16, 2017, marks President Barack Obama’s last Martin Luther King Day as Commander in Chief. The President has a busy schedule today that includes a White House visit from the World Series Champs, the Washington Cubs. According to right fielder Jason Heyward, it’s a huge honor and the significance of being a black man meeting with the first black President on MLK day isn’t lost on him. Via ESPN: “This is the ultimate time to go to the White House as an athlete, to meet the president after winning a ring,” Cubs right fielder Jason Heyward said at this weekend’s Cubs winter fan convention. “For me, being an African-American, there’s something (special) about it. And for my teammates who are from Venezuela, there’s something about it, guys from Alabama or Mississippi (or wherever), there’s something about it for them. Yes, there’s a lot of significance for a lot of different reasons.” Later President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama will complete an MLK Day service project. The First couple will take to Jobs Have Priority Naylor Road Family Shelter to meet with needy families. They will also donate a White House swing set previously used by Sasha and Malia Obama. We’ll miss you President Obama! AP Images

The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 9 Episode 10 Recap: Kenya’s Mistake

With Matt Jordan proving to be a ticking time bomb, Kenya Moore was forced to contemplate what she could do to ice him out on The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 9 Episode 10 .  However, Kenya was shocked by the return of Marlo Hampton and found herself questioning why all of these people she hated were in her life.  Watch The Real Housewives of Atlanta Season 9 Episode 10 Online We kicked things off with Sheree Whitfield, who was still struggling to finish decorating her home. She got Marlo in to help her pick wall coverings because no one else wanted to help her.  It did not take long for Marlo to start making fun of Kenya. Marlo was annoyed because Kenya did not invite her to her birthday or housewarming parties.  Marlo revealed that Kenya had invited NeNe Leakes and felt like it was a bit of a slap in the face because of how much of a good friend she had been to Kenya over the years.  Meanwhile, Kenya returned home, reeling from all of the drama that Matt had caused in Charlotte, but she was in for a rude awakening.  Matt had smashed windows, painted over security cameras and even damaged her car. There really is no filter with this dude and Kenya should really find a way to get him out of her life.  Kenya turned to Kandi Burruss, who quizzed her about what her father would say. When Kandi suggested a restraining order, Kenya revealed that she did not think that would put her at ease.  Kenya went to visit Phaedra for some advice.  “I’ve been in a bad relationship and so I feel it with any woman who is going through it with a spouse or a partner,” Phaedra said to the camera.  Phaedra then admitted to Kenya that counseling did not work for her and Apollo Nida, so she did not think it would do much to fix things.  “Once you’re married to someone the bad behavior intensifies 100 percent because then they got you,” Phaedra warned her friend.  Kenya was quick to point out that she still wanted to be with Matt, but not the evil one she had witnessed recently. This did not sit well with Phaedra because she felt there was no way Matt would change now.  Sometime later, the ladies were preparing for Phaedra’s charity pop-up shop. There was confusion over how much of the proceeds would actually be donated to charity, but they eventually agreed on 50 percent.  Sheree was the first lady to get annoyed. She did not like that Kenya had a big picture of herself on her booth and felt that she was doing her best to bank money at the charity event. Kenya then said that Sheree’s booth was “as empty as her chateau.” Marlo then showed up and made her presence felt. Kenya quickly called her over for a chat.  “I just wanted to tell you face to face that I am so sorry that I did not get a chance to invite you to my housewarming,” Kenya said. “It still is unacceptable — a friend you don’t do that to,” Marlo replied.  Kenya still felt like they were friends and tried to imply that she forgot all about Marlo.  Marlo then stormed off, calling Kenya a “bitch.” That marks another new enemy for Kenya Moore! As the day ended, it was revealed that they raised $7500.  What did you think of all the drama? Sound off below! View Slideshow: Real Housewives All Stars: Who Should Be Cast?

Illegitimate-Elect: Donald Trump Calls Civil Rights Leader John Lewis “All Talk” On MLK Weekend!

The Audacity Of Orange: Donald Trump Tweets Badly About John Lewis This has gotten out of control… If you saw the film “Selma” you probably will remember watching a young John Lewis on the screen, living out his legacy as a Civil Rights leader who walked beside Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Lewis, as pointed out by Goldie Taylor of The Daily Beast , “was president of the Student Nonviolent Coordination Committee (SNCC) and is the youngest and only living member of “The Big Six.” Lewis was one of the original 13 Freedom Riders, young people who risked their lives to challenge racial segregation in the South. He was arrested 45 times, beaten and bloodied in the name of human rights. Lewis became a congressman who represents Georgia’s 5th Congressional District… But Friday he told Meet the Press” he will miss his first Presidential inauguration in 30 years in Congress because he doesn’t feel that Donald Trump is a legitimate President. Of course Lewis’ comments didn’t sit well with Trump who struck out (where else?) on Twitter. Congressman John Lewis should spend more time on fixing and helping his district, which is in horrible shape and falling apart (not to…… — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2017 mention crime infested) rather than falsely complaining about the election results. All talk, talk, talk – no action or results. Sad! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 14, 2017 Hours later Trump added to his rant: Congressman John Lewis should finally focus on the burning and crime infested inner-cities of the U.S. I can use all the help I can get! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) January 15, 2017 If we thought he was an idiot before our opinion is now even lower. Lewis is a national hero who was beaten bloody for our freedoms. He sacrificed a lot in the name of progress, facing arrest some 45 times. Don’t be misled by Trump’s tweets. While crime and poverty rates are above the national average, the area is neither “crime infested” nor falling apart. It’s actually thriving — home to the upscale Buckhead neighborhood, several Fortune 500 companies — including Coca-Cola and Delta Airlines — as well as Emory University, Georgia Tech, Spelman, Morehouse and Atlanta’s airport. And as for Trump’s assertion that Lewis is all talk and no action is PURE HOGWASH… Also via Daily Beast : In 1994, when the country was caught up in hysteria and pushed a crime bill that later destroyed whole communities, John Lewis was one of only eleven black members of the House to stand against it. One of the “results” of Lewis’ activism was the Fair Housing Act, the very legislation under which the Justice Department sued Donald Trump and his father. SMH — can it get any realer than that? It is unfortunate that it is easy to believe that @realDonaldTrump would've have been proudly standing against John Lewis then as he is now pic.twitter.com/DSDzy0xduz — Khary Penebaker (@kharyp) January 14, 2017 There has been a huge wave of outrage on social media over Trump’s latest attack but we thought the tweet above said it all. Lewis has fought for what he believes is right his entire career, why should he be expected to stop because Trump was elected. In the meantime the NY Daily News is reporting that Trump has canceled an MLK day visit to Smithsonian Museum of African American History and Culture over scheduling issues. You may recall President Obama urged Trump to visit the museum after he said during the presidential campaign that there has “never been a worse time to be a black person” in America… Clearly Trump needs to brush up on his American history.

Exclusive: Bobby Shmurda Gets More Time To Mull Prison Shank Deal Due To THIS Bizarre Reason

Troubled Rapper Accused Of Possessing Jail House Shiv Bobby Shmurda will get a few more weeks to think over whether he should take a deal in his prison knife and perjury case – but it’s not what you think. The “Hot N***a” rapper was in Bronx Criminal Court this week for a “decision” hearing on his prison shank and perjury case. Prosecutors offered him a deal of 1.5 to four years, to run concurrently with his current seven-year sentence for gang conspiracy and weapons possession. But Shmurda’s lawyer, Paul London, called the court that morning and said he had a bad case of the flu, and asked for the hearing to be postponed so he could recover. “Mr. London called this morning,” the judge said. “He’s got the flu and is requesting a two-week adjournment.” The Bronx District Attorney’s Office accused Shmurda’s gal pal of trying to pass him a “sharpened metal object” while in the visiting area of Riker’s Island in 2015 – and then lying about the incident to the Grand Jury. The gal pal, Kimberly Russeau, has already pled guilty to promoting prison contraband. Shmurda, dressed in khakis, and button-down crisp white shirt and flanked by two court officers, said “aight,” after the judge informed him of his lawyer’s illness. The Brooklyn artist is due back in court next month, where he’ll reveal whether or not he’ll take the deal.

The Bachelor Preview: What Did Corinne Do Now?!?

Grown men and women are not meant to play in bouncy houses. These large, inflatable items are intended for kids to jump around in and for parents to grow frustrated by when their kids refuse to come out. But try telling that to Corinne Olympios! Consider this a warning ( The Bachelor spoilers ahead!), but the following sneak peek at Monday's all-new episode of this ABC favorite once again features Olympios doing something to piss off her fellow suitors. And that something is basically Nick Viall. She's basically doing Nick Viall. Not literally, of course. We know Nick has a lot of sex this season and possibly even impregnates a competitor , but there's no intercourse depicted in the following clip. Instead, there's just some defiling of a bouncy house. For some reason, one of these giant items ends up on the property of the mansion, with Corinne wasting little time in pulling Nick inside (inside the  bouncy house , that is!) They jumped around. They scream like maniacs. They attract the attention of all other women in the house. And just as the women arrive, wouldn't you know it?!? They find Corinne straddling Nick, planting her mouth on his like she owns it. The nerve, right?!? Check out the controversial (and sexy!) clip below and please accept our apology up front: You may never look at bouncy houses the same way ever again…
