Andrea Lake, a 31-year-old sticker company owner from San Diego who had shown herself to have something of a brash and abrasive personality, became the ninth person fired from The Apprentice 5 after she became cross with her team and they turned on her in the boardroom.
In order to make room on its schedule for next week's week-long Celebrity Cooking Showdown reality cooking competition, NBC opted to air back-to-back The Apprentice episodes last night. The broadcasts saw two more losing project managers bite the dust, with Lenny Veltman going home after being unable to relate to his task's judges and Leslie Bourgeois later joining him after her failure to properly price Gold Rush Corporation's product resulted in the team's fourth consecutive task loss.
Done in by his refusal to place his team's failure to win the week's task on anyone who contributed to it, Bryce Gahagan, a 28-year-old home builder from Kansas City, MO, became the seventh contestant fired from the fifth edition of The Apprentice.
Deemed to have failed to bring the person whom Donald Trump thought might be most responsible for his team's task failure into the final boardroom, Dan Brody a 31-year-old clothing company owner from Miami, Florida became the sixth contestant fired from the fifth edition of The Apprentice.
Having premiered to less than stellar ratings NBC's The Apprentice 5 looked to rebound with last night's second episode broadcast which featured a lopsided win and a double firing.
NBC has revealed the identities of the eighteen candidates who will be competing on The Apprentice 5, the upcoming fifth edition of the Donald Trump reality show that will premiere Monday, February 27 at 9PM ET/PT.
