Hope Dworaczyk: 'Apprentice' Was 'Horrible,' Dionne Warwick the Worst

By Rob Shuter Posted May 6th 2011 11:34PM

EXCLUSIVE: The gorgeous Hope Dworaczyk, who was just voted off 'Celebrity Apprentice' this week, was relieved when Donald Trump told her she was fired, telling me that working for the mogul was "horrible."

"It was so bad," Hope told me on my HDNet show. "We were up every morning at 4:30 in the morning and a girl needs her beauty sleep, that's my first problem. And then they work you for 17 hours a day and you're with bitches ... it was horrible!"

Hope explains that the cast is made to shoot three episodes a week. They would get a new task and the next day they would execute it then wake up and do it again. Needless to say, Hope was "so happy" when Donald gave her the heave ho.

"The first thing I did when I got fired is I got in the car that they put you in to drive you around and I said, 'Take me to the Mandarin Oriental. I need to go to the roof and have a dirty martini,'" she said. "I was so happy -- I am not kidding!"

Hope also throws in a dig at the big bossman himself, saying he barely does a thing! "Donald shows up to announce your task and then he shows up again in the boardroom," she reveals. "But he sends his son and daughter to go spy on you."

The Playboy model with Texas roots shared some horror stories regarding her cast-mates as well, starting with who-else, 'Buddy Holly' actor Gary Busey.

"I had Gary on my floor and Niki Taylor and Star Jones. Yeah, so there was someone yelling at night for a sundae at night. It was Gary. The waiter would bring it in and it would be melted and I would hear him screaming at the person bringing him room service that the ice cream was melted ... and it happened every night!"

Surprisingly, Hope reveals that the most difficult person on the show was not Gary or NeNe Leakes, but singer Dionne Warwick.

"First of all, Dionne Warwick called Niki a hussy ... [she] was actually the hardest one to work with out of everybody! The 70-year-old Dionne. And it's hard to call your grandmother a c-word. So that was hard, having to bite your tongue. Because you want to be respectful. And then they fired LaToya, but they brought her back after I was fired. And I was thinking to myself, 'We just got rid of this bitch and now she is walking back in the boardroom!'"

Hope also reveals that she thinks Trump will run for president, although he will not be getting her vote: "I am an Obama girl."

For my complete interview with Hope, tune into 'Naughty But Nice' exclusively on HDNet at 1:00 PM and 7:00 PM on Saturday.

What the hell? An Obama girl? Is it possible for a Fox watching moron to make ANY statement without bringing it back to the man who is responsible for ridding the US of enemy #1? Get a frigging life, JIM!!!

By montana

Oh Please Hailnhardy , Obama just happened to be the lucky one who got rid of Enemy #1 he was voted in because every Niggr went out and voted based on skin color and you know it . Who the Hell are you kidding? Nene and Dionne just proved what every white person in America knows... Unless you are college educated you are GHETTO and I mean GHHHHH E TTOOOOOOOO

By Tom

Montana, Obama was voted in because Bush and Chaney nearly put the U.S.A into a great depression. A lot of white people voted for Obama. He won by 10 million votes. By the way did you finnish high school?

By Meredith

Jim - just curious - do you work 17 hours a day? Most people I know usually do 8 to 8 1/2 . . .

By brilynnel

I'm just sure that you work 17 hours a day! Who are you kidding Jim?

By barbie

You've got that backwards. The rich get rich because they work the heck out of their employees for minimum wages while they take in BIG profits.

'Apprentice' Was 'Horrible,'

Life could be tougher Hope. You could (Should?) be selling happy meals.

By starqz

Makes me think Hope was that blind item featured the other day when someone said they were only going to attend the season finale because it was written into their contract..

By tony

im guessing the don wont get her vote if he runs for prez,not that he will want it.

By whereisvic

Pretty sure, if he runs, he'll be begging for EVERY vote he can get...LOL

By Nadine

I was waiting for the day when a former contestant would blast
"The Donald"....LOL Thanks, Hope. I could see Dionne was a bit difficult to work with. She didn't seem nice or helpful at all. There was always a rumor about her temper. As for Gary, well he was just being Gary.

She will be out there begging people to make the rich "pay their fair share" not knowing that the rich pay 70% of the taxes in this country and most of the Obama voters pay NO TAXES>>

By bazel

Yes... one should always beware of huge flaring nostrils. Dionne is a demon. I think she really is unaware of her "lack of people skills and Diva antics". She really did herself a disservice going on the Apprentice. That said, she probably is telling the public (who dislike her) to go fan themselves. I hope she has a lot of money stashed, because she is very unlikeable. You sure got an array of wild personalities among "the sistas" this season. Wouldn't want any one of them as a friend, colleague, or enemy... with the exception of Latoya.

By pugz

dionne should have just called one of her psychotic friends and asked them who was going to win!

By B Me

Whine, whine, whine. Why did you sign on for the show? Plus you got paid for the gig. My friends work 60+ hours a week in and make a thousand times less than you were paid. Share your whinning with someone who cares.
