Coming to you from the same person who successfully stalked Erin Kaplan of The City comes yet another batch of celebrity sightings -- this time with pictures.

Writes the stalker:

Here are some photos from a few weeks ago when I came out of the subway and stumbled across an amazing sighting. I figured Blago and the other Celebrity Apprentice people wouldn't mind if I took pictures. In fact, Bret Michaels was even taking photos of people taking photos! Erin seems like less of an fame whore so I left her alone.


Behold some pictures from the latest edition of Celebrity Apprentice after the jump.

As many people may know, I've been an Apprentice fan since the very beginning — loyally standing by the show even as an undeserved backlash nearly threatened to sink it completely (okay, the Los Angeles season DID suck, but it still had its moments). However, for as great as I believe the series is, NBC and Mark Burnett unceasingly botch the finale every single season — producing a bloated, awkward, and generally disappointing final episode that's usually more noteworthy for its length than anything else. In fact, it's been my longstanding theory that after season two's disastrously long finale, the buzz turned on the show as people focused less on its entertainment and camp value and more on its propensity for product placement and overblown statements from Trump himself. Whether or not that theory holds true, it's fairly undeniable that the Apprentice finales always seem to be lacking in some way. Either they're total blowouts by one player or they're crammed full of dumb filler segments (ie. musical numbers or polling audience reaction) or they simply lack drama. And let's not forget about the awkward "reunion" elements of the show, which are always equal parts dull and unsatisfying (unlike Survivor, which knows how to do a reunion right, the Apprentice always drops the ball in magnificent ways by rarely asking noteworthy questions and dedicating only about two minutes of airtime to the segment in general).

However, that all changed on last night's epic finale. It had everything we always wanted and needed from such a show, and finally we were served up a climactic episode that was enthralling, exciting, and full of the intense hatred we like to see from celebs in competition. In short, it was amazing.

Hey, remember that awful season of The Apprentice that took place in Los Angeles and totally jumped the shark and nearly ruined the entire franchise? Well, the house that all those people stayed in (or at least the ones that weren't stuck in the yard) is up for sale. The estate has nine bedrooms, ten bathrooms, and enough space to tent as many losers in the backyard as you see fit. So if you've got a few extra million hanging around, why not give it a shot? It's part of reality TV history!

So how about that Apprentice? If you didn't see it, watch it. Or at least watch the video clip at the end of this post. Explosive might be an understatement. I'm not even going to bother with an intro. I'm just gonna get right into the recap...

Let me start off by saying that I've not been covering Celebrity Apprentice, but I love it dearly and more people should watch it. Second of all, what the HELL was that?


Saturday Night Live was only okay this past weekend, but one of the highlights was the above clip, which imagines what exactly might happen if President Obama were to lose his cool.

After the jump, another two of my favorite clips — a Celebrity Apprentice bit and a bizarre yet funny pairing of a sportscaster and an alien.

It's always exciting when two drag queens get into a spat, but since I don't have a clip of that, I'll show you the next best thing: Omarosa appearing on The Wendy Williams Show. Now, I loved Omarosa on Celebrity Apprentice, but I've come to realize that I can only tolerate her in the presence of Mr. Trump. Everywhere else, she's pretty much insufferable. Case in point: these clips, which are bitchy and awkward right from the first few seconds. I gotta give Wendy Williams props (you won't hear me saying that often) for biting her tongue (for the most part) and attempting to stick to the interview. Not that she's totally restrained. This is Wendy Williams after all, a notorious DJ who famously tangled with Whitney Houston in 2003. Even on her best behavior, she can't resist slipping in a few catty comments about Omarosa's implants and face ("Black don't crack. She's crackin'."). This is what live TV is all about, people.

The first catty clip is above. A second video featuring continued passive-aggressiveness (and then full-on aggressiveness) after the jump. Note that these cilps are several minutes long. You can skip around to your favorite parts, but I must say, watching Wendy Williams's face repeatedly go sour is well worth taking in the entire experience, as it were.
