Celebrity Apprentice Betting Heats Up
As expected, this season's Celebrity Apprentice is heating up nicely
as egos clash, tempers flare and the claws come out, but for betting fans who
bet on former Governor of Illinois and alleged crook, Rob Blagojevich, their
luck ran out Sunday night after the Donald unceremoniously fired him.
So with 4 celebrities gone, 10 remain in since this season of Celebrity
Apprentice, and online betting sites are doing a brisk trade as punters
wager on who will stay hired and who will ultimately be fired. As it turned out,
teen wizard Harry Potter was responsible for Rob Blagojevich sudden departure.
In a challenge where each team was asked to come up with an interactive 3-D
display for a forthcoming Harry Potter attraction at Universal Studios in
Florida. As his team's project manager, Blagojevich flew down to Florida to meet
Universal's execs, get the brief and relay it to his team in New York.
But as it turned out, Blagojevich proved inept at communicating with his team
using email, text messaging or phones so he asked teammate professional wrestler
Brett Michaels to step in as team leader. However, by not giving Michaels any
direction or strategy, the team was doomed to fail the task.
And fail it did. At some point frustrated Australian celebrity chef Curtis Stone
even expressed his anger at his team's lack of leadership when he said, 'There
wasn't a plan for the presentation. The plan for the presentation is we don't
have a f**king plan.' So the men's team faced Trump in the boardroom.
Facing Donald Trump in the boardroom later that day, Blagojevich may have tried
to avoid being fired, but like his upcoming appointment with a federal grand
jury to faces charges including racketeering conspiracy, wire fraud, extortion
conspiracy, attempted extortion and more, his departure was inevitable.
So with just 10 celebs left, 9 of which will be fired, here's how leading online
betting site BetUS rates their chances of surviving until the end of Celebrity
Apprentice:
Sharon Osbourne: +150
