Reply to: That sexy R&B type black girl from The Apprentice

[bogeyman]

R&B in the modern sense is music with whining lyrics, tedious rap or both...

So not R&B at all, in other words.

Why, in God's name, give the name of a great musical genre to that sort of fatuous, drivel?

[gingerjedi]

Agree.

What's so 'R&B' about her I'd like to know - although she did look a bit like Howlin' Wolf.

R&B in the modern sense is music with whining lyrics, tedious rap or both, its pop for people who don’t appreciate proper music and would rather listen to a genre where each track is indistinguishable from the last, very popular with chavs.

She was thick as mince and ugly....totally deserved to go

Er..sexy? She wasn't sexy, nor did she inhibited any form of intelligence.

So shes halfway perfect then.

I quite like brown sugar myself! ;-)

This time it has the worst candidates ever! How can you possibly sell ice-cream to a shop that makes its own ice-cream.
And three appoinments were ice-cream makers and they ended up cancelling one appointment, so they only sold to two major clients. How to snatch defeat from the hand of victory...Lindy should have gone sooner...I just think about the 24/7 laundry hotline.

Wonder if they'll do a fifth series?

She was tulip - end of...

Yeah the bit in the intro where he says "the prize is getting to work with him".

what a load of tulip.

I find watching The Apprentice inhibits any form of intelligence.

Have to agree there, I find it a hard program to bring myself to watch these days. Clearly none of the 'candidates' have any business acumen, and come across as a bunch of ego centric sales consultants, boasting about how great they are, and then grovelling for a job with Amstrad.

Are they even aware of the some of the ridiculous products Amstrad have churned out, such as the GX4000 games 'console', an 8-bit atrocity trying to compete with the 16-bit Megadrive and SNES. Unsurprisingly it was relegated to the stalls of Sunday markets shortly after launch, being sold for a few quid. And what's that E-m@iler phone all about?

I found Richard Branson's 'The Rebel Billionaire' far more entertaining. I particularly like the episode where Branson dresses up as an elderly taxi driver responsible for picking up the shows contestants from the airport. The taxi driver (Branson) struggles with their suitcases, and makes an assessment of the contestants character based on their response to this, those that did not show any compassion were canned. Very good

The girls watch it at my house... sometimes its just too cringeworthy for me

I watched about 30 seconds of it once, summed up Sugar as a loud mouthed bully, and have avoided it since.

[cailin maith]

Why do we end up watching such drivel though?

You watch it because you think it might be a more intelligent version of Big Brother.
What actually happens is you end up thinking... where the hell did they get such useless candidates from?

[DimPrawn]

Because my missus likes to watch it. This series is terrible.
