Fan stuff

One of my favorite candidates from TV's The Apprentice, a 21-year-old whiz kid from the first season.  Unlike many other candidates, she conducted herself with decorum, politeness and class, and she displayed a great deal of intelligence as well.  Her accomplishments were certainly impressive, given her young age and her lack of a college education.

I know this is kinda shallow, but she's also rather pretty.  Despite this, she did not join some of the other female candidates in posing for a questionable spread in FHM magazine.  Good for her.

Beauty, brains and composure.  In that regard, she was rather like a young Kendra Todd, my favorite Apprentice contestant ever.  She was certainly prettier than Erin and Audrey, two Apprentice wannabes who made a big deal of bragging about their beauty.

I also liked Elizabeth Jarosz.  She didn't acquit herself well on the show, but she did display a great deal more charm afterwards.  Oh, and she was pretty, too. Ditto for lovely executive assistant Robin.

I think that Jessie got a raw deal.  She was dismissed for failing to defend herself adequately against Omarosa's attacks.  I understand Trump's reasoning, but I think that he was overly harsh.  Frankly, I tend to side with Jessie; I think that was a time when further bickering would have been counter-productive.  Perhaps she could have defended herself more, but I admire her for erring on the side of diplomacy.  (And, according to at least one interview, she did defend herself more than what the program showed.

Yeah, she got a raw deal.  Back in the early days of the first season, the contestants didn't quite know what Trump expected.  (Hence the overly harsh dismissal of David Gould in the first episode.)  That's why there was a lot more backbiting and boardroom shrillness during subsequent seasons -- although thankfully, there were a few candidates who rose above that pettiness.
