Just watched the first episode online: who knew Lisa freakin' Rinna was such a two-faced pain in the ass? I can already tell she's going to work my last nerve for the time she remains on the show.

Say what you want about Star, she is high maintainence, holier than thou, and irritating as hell, but it cannot be denied that she is a baller, for real. Nene and Lisa Rinna can talk all that smack about her but at the end of the day, Star was rollin' in with those connections dropping big money. This heffa can get heads of island nations on the phone to pay $5,000 for one pizza pie. Then she got her $40,000 friends to still front money when without delivering the preiviously agreed upon 40 pies. Nene please. Sit down, girl, you are out of your league.

Star did the damn thang, I cain't even front on her connex.

Nene was appropriately low-key, but we ALLLLL know that shit is just game cuz she'll be kicking her shoes off and jumping up in somebody face soon enough.

Rarrrr rarrrrrr, like a dungeon dragon!!! (I cut to that Busta line e'rytime she gets amped)

I wanted to choke that bitch...I HATE working with people like her. Star did her job, and although I didn't agree with EVERYTHING she did, she did the damn thing, and worked it like hell. Shit, I want her to do a fundraiser for me so I can kill off the rest of my mortgage.

Did anybody else notice that the $40,000 pizza looked like it had been crushed a bit......

For real! She's effective but her manner/approach could use some help. I'm the type of bitch that you can tell me or ask me to do anything but my response to you is based primarily on HOW you come at me. Starrruh would seriously need to check that tone if I was working with her.

There's a gossip guy on the Today show right now and he went to Star's viewing party last nite. He said that she raised $80k for the Heart Assoc last night. Like her or not, she's on point.

He also said Lisa Rinna said, they all, herself included, need to be wearing orange jumpsuits cuz they crazy.

I know it's going to sound tuurrible, but outside of Housewives and the books she wrote off the coat tails of the show we really wouldn't know Nene from a needle in a haystack. As much as Star annoys me, I do appreciate her good old fashioned climb to the top via school and an actual job. I'm so tired of reality stars popping up and getting the kudos for fabulosity and success when all they've done is let cameras film them in their kitchen for 6 weeks.

Gurl, and how come the athelete's 'wives' ain't usually nothing more than baby mamas ??

Ain't been no vows exchanged, no wedding rangs, no license, nothin'! Just some babies, a good shoe collection, and occasionally the dude rolls through if they're even still with them in the first place!

They should just be short and sweet with it and go with "Ho's", that'll pretty much cover the lot of 'em and save space for their constantly inflating lips on the title screen.

Ooooh, you are a true heathen!

Damn that Star! She's on Today right now and said that her fundraiser on Sunday actually raised ANOTHER $170K for the Am. Heart Assoc. Yeah, she bad.

I guess I'm moreso hoping for Nene's comeuppance and, if there's a God, annihilation. I NEED her to pe eradicated like a pox.

But if this heffa wins this shit, she'll be utterly indestructable. For real, it'll be Nene and the cockroaches when the world comes to an end.

She does have that rather Godzilla like quality about herself, don't she?

the crazy factor this season is irresistable

Robin said the same thing, this morning on Stern. I wasn't planning on hanging in, but my mom saw it and seems keen to discuss it, so I'll try to stay the course.

Lawd, these fools herre. Star and Dionne wanting top billing was some ridiculous shit. Love Marlee. They shoulda did a story about a deaf kid to teach about tolerance and acceptance of folks with any kind of difference. Easy fuckin' peasy. Hell, I think Marlee wrote a children's book about that subject. Derrrr!

[Edited 3/13/11 18:53pm]

I thought the story the guys did was flat. I liked the story the women did about the little lioness.

FEH. And Dionne...ol' diva lady. She reminds me so much of my grandma.

Star and Dionne are tough and they know how to play this game. I'm glad to see Lisa go.

Celebrity Apprentice's Richard Hatch Sent Back to Jail

Richard Hatch is headed back to the slammer.

The Survivor winner -- and current Celebrity Apprentice contestant -- was ordered to return to jail for nine months for neglecting to pay taxes on the $1 million prize he won as a part of the CBS series in 2000.

PHOTOS: Stars at court

Hatch -- who was released in 2009 after serving a three-year sentence for tax evasion -- still owes an estimated $2 million to the IRS. As a condition of his release, the reality star was ordered to file his 2000 and 2001 tax returns and fork over additional funds, but he failed to do so.

"This isn't a complicated matter as much as you tried to complicate it," Judge William E. Smith told Hatch on Friday. "As far as I can tell, you've made no effort to put any money into the government's coffers."

VIDEO: Apprentice winner Bill Rancic handicaps Hatch's chances on the series

In addition to a nine month jail term, Judge Smith also ordered Hatch to serve 26 months of supervised release, during which the IRS will garnish 25 percent of his gross income.

Hatch is expected to surrender to U.S. Marshals on Monday. The Providence Journal reports the finale of NBC's Celebrity Apprentice will still air on May 22, regardless of Hatch's imprisonment.

Dionne is awful. I hope she gets the boot next. Hatch cant catch a break, huh?

I LOVE the fact that they throw senior citizens into the mix! They're usually the most aggressive ones. Dionne is mean and crachety, just like I like my old people. Joan rivers kicked ass last season and was my favorite to the end. Why is Dionne actin' like she gettin' royalties offa this book? She sittin' there arguing with everybody like she fightin' with Clive Davis for some production points on a record. She's so not a team player that eventually that will be the nail in her casket, but for now watching her be ornery is fun to watch. She reminds me of old people who nip on apple brandy and curse you out for walking across their front lawn

Lawd, poor Lisa is just out of her league with this competition. She is lazy, indecisive, and has no hustle whatsoever.

How come LaToya already had boots that fit in with that Lion costume?

Didn't Marlee look like she wanted to pass out knuckle sandwiches in all the meetings? Homegirl looked mad as hell (and deservedly so).

Good gawd almighty if the sqawking chicken wasn't THE perfect part for Nene.

Umm, on the mens side---how did 4 year old theatre time turn into a dirty south baby hip hop concert ? I was expecting Lil John to bust out with "YAY-UH, O-KAAAAY" at any moment. They are so wrong for that

They shoulda went with Marlee's idea. I think that woulda been an easier concept for kids. I have to admit I holla'd when Nene showed how fast Marlee was signing when she got mad. Nene stupid

YES! Ugh. Don't get me started on Dionne and her old self. I can understand this being a business competition, but good LAWD the woman was dripping with aggression! I kept seeing an angry old brown junkyard dog barking and snarling every time she talked. When my grandma gets angry enough, she's the same way. Usually she's sweet as can be... I found myself saying "dang grandma, chill!!" to the TV! She sure ain't a doggone team player....wooooeee!

I felt slightly sorry for Lisa, but understood her plight to a certain degree. I too am uncomfortable in the role of a leader, and I'm more of a brainstormer and behind-the-scenes kind of person. So with so many strong personalities, it's hard to stand out. On the other hand, what happened to no? I guess she was overwhelmed. Well, it backfired. It hurt her a lot when the truth came out, and I was a bit proud when she tried to have some balls about it. In the end, I was hoping for her A-game.

Figures Latoya has an outfit for any kind of uh...anything..LOL. She was perfect for that part. Same with NeNe. When I heard that "awk awk awk", I knew it was her. You weren't the only one waiting for Lil John to scream that phrase, either. THAT would have made for a great story.

Marlee SHOULD have whooped somebody. I hated how her concept was looked over. Still, the whole idea of being yourself was just fine for kids 4 and 5. When I was that age, I knew what shy was. Although my ideas of adulthood changed as I grew, I WAS pretty comfortable being myself.

I'm an ol' softie, ya know? I know it's a hustle for getting money for the charity of your choice, but do we have to be jerks to get there? But then again that would be boring TV....:-J

@ junkyard dog

That's exactly what she look like wit her hair color matching her skin

OK, I fell asleep watching it last night. Who got the boot? I remember seeing the meetings and Lisa not being able to get her shit together until the 11th hour. I remember seeing Marlee getting the ass and NeNe mimicking her ballistic signing saying "she was about to lose it!" That was funny. Nene does have her moments. I do remember being awakened by someone squawking like a chicken, but then I drifted off again.
