I totally agree about the Apprentice. The challenges are just so lame. This last one actually had to do with some corporate work. I wish he had the two older assistants with him. I can only think of the man's name, George. They were gentle yet firm. Donald Trump needed that influence to calm some of his ego down. Now he has his 'wonderful' daughter to just feed his ego. I think he will agree that Los Angeles was not the best place to have The Apprentice. And the whole tent thing is a whole new thing that I would prefer not to go into tonight, or any other time!!!

I thought Melinda was incredible tonight (as usual)...I also liked Jordin (of course) and Gina. Lakeisha...eh. I don't care for her especially, although I do understand that others enjoy her.

The guys all suck, IMO. Of all the performers, I think Melinda and Jordin have recording careers in their near futures. I don't think the rest have anything special going for them. Sanjaya should GO already...gee, he's weak. Hailey has a career in her future, but IMO it's not singing. Acting would suit her better, as she's basically eye candy. The judges are really trashing her! Either she or Sanjaya should go tomorrow, I think, so who knows what's gonna happen? It wouldn't surprise me if both stay and maybe Phil goes - his chemotherapy look is creeping me out. I do think he sang nicely tonight, although he should have listened to Tony Bennett and picked-up the pace. But, again, he's got a creepy look going and I really think he may be gone...


...but who knows.

I thought Lakisha acted like she is getting a little to sure of herself tonight. I didn't like the song, her dress or her attitude. And did I see a tatoo on her right breast when the dress started falling off her chest? Melinda was my favorite again. She didn't look as awestruck after she sang, like maybe she is actually believing that she is a star.

Unfortunalty according to a website that predicts how the voting has gone, Sanjaya is safe a gain. This website only predicts from the phone in votes and cannot count the text message votes. Melinda is on top and Gina is #9.

I wonder how often the performers themselves choose thier own wardrobes and how mush influenve the show's production staff have. Haley needs to realize that she needs to let her singing be what shows and not get the male vote from her body shots.
