As
we mentioned last winter, NBC will feature an Olympian on the next installment of The Apprentice. The viewers voted and they chose... Angela Ruggiero. In case that name doesn't ring a bell, Ruggiero was on the American women's hockey team. She's a Harvard grad so the girl ain't no dummy. In case that gimmick isn't enough, Trump's also taking his show on the road to Los Angeles.
Of Ruggiero, Trump says, "We'll see if Angela can ice the competition as we take the board room to the West Coast." Barf.

Here's my message to the
internet: stop trying to rip off the Narnia rap from SNL!
It was hilarious. You are not.
Case in
point: Mark Feuerstein (from
Good Morning, Miami) and Adam Stein launched an East Coast/West Coast rap battle
with SNL'ers Andy Samburg and Chris Parnell, the geniuses behind the
Lazy Sunday, aka
Chronic-what?-cles of
Narnia rap video.
Boys, you really shouldn't enter into a battle you cannot win. The two 'Steins
created a West Coast version of the rap, called
Lazy Monday
(because no one in L.A. has a job). They take their bad asses to drink Macchiatos and paint pottery at a Color Me Mine
store. It's not nearly as funny, or as catchy of a tune as the Narnia rap.
Nothing beats
the original.
