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.

Dionne Warwick is a horrible woman, she fooled everyone back in the day when she was selling records.
I have to wonder if the woman has any friends, if she does, they must be as cold and rude as she is.
I hope she was good at saving money, for sure, not one person would pay a cent to hear her rude voice now.
I hope one day, someone treates her as cold as she treats others.

Well , i am disappointed in Hope . I thought she was a quiet and hard-working person that minds her own business . Bad mouthing people behind their back is not what I expected . Instead she proves here that she is just another whining immature contestant on the Apprentice show . Very disappointing .

They'll never have Oscar winners on this show, only delusional has beens. They take advantage of people whose careers are hitting the skids. Who are the real "Apprentice's"? Trump's kids.....period. The only thing keeping Trump from going under is the show. He's a trust fund baby who took Casino's and ran them into the ground. He needs endless amounts of attention and is a blight on modern culture.

Dionne is a ghetto druggie...I don't care how old she is..if she treated me like she was treating everyone...I would have told her to her ugly face...she used to be a star..but she hasn't been one for years...so she needs to get over herself...she is NOTHING!!!!!!

This is why Obama votes are going up because Trump is gaffe.

By NAUGHTY BUT NICE ROB

I was amazed at how such she wanted to be voted off.....she did say donald was a good leader!!!

By jeannie

By montana....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 .

This is the kind of person we don't need. Just a big loser. People of every race voted for him

I thought the idea was to raise money for a charity. Anything
you have to do shoud not be a chore but a privilege. She never
mentioned her charity. Sounds a bit lazy.

If the show were broadcast live then there would be a reason to watch--to call in the launch codes. If we could get Trump and his spawn, Oprah, Dr. Phil, Sean Hannity, and the cast of The View in the same building, then bring it down!

You are all taking this to seriously. This is theater folks. They are all playing a part. Trump is the biggest theatrical star on TV. Neely is playing a part on her reality show and carrying it over to this show. Star is an exaggeration. The models are playing models. Gary and Meatloaf are exaggerations. You fool yourselves if you think you know how anyone really is from this show. They may or may not be given a script but the film crew is selective in the moments it captures. Get real.

Perhaps Hope just bumped into the ghetto culture that the majority of the sistas brought to the boardroom this series. Those chocolate divas have a supreme level of entitlement and have absolutely no shame in flapping loudly about whatever they don't like. But then, Hope, those are "Obama girls", thinking that the world exists for them. Thank God we'll never hear from Hope again. Perhaps she can marry an NBA star.

@Montana.....So now you speak for every white person in America....Pleeeaase. First you need to take your white sheet off your head and think. If you are gonna use a negative term at least spell it right or are you afraid (even under your sheet) to spell it all the way out.

By Ernie D.

I heard that Dionne Warwick is supposed to perform on CBS's "The Talk" next week. I might not be watching then. I cannot stand that woman after being fired and still blaming someone else for her problem.

What an arrogant person. She needs to worry about the fact that she is not getting any younger.

By gobluespartyon

Hope is pretty & beautiful. That is Gary being Gary about his icecream. Pretty good interview with Hope. At least she told the truth that she likes Obama and I don't care that she likes obama or not.

Celebrity Apprentice sucks. Trump lets them run around acting like 5 year olds. If Trump runs for President I will leave the country.

Go Obama

By Allison

Go Obama. Trump and his show both suck.
