Natalie Gulbis premiered on The Celebrity Apprentice last night in episode 1. Natalie didn’t get much “pub” on the show… similar to the commercials promoting the show this year. Not sure if that was by design or not.
Natalie looked somewhat nervous in this episode kind of taking a back seat to what was going on. Could have been Natalie actually being nervous or the producers playing on the other personalities and just giving viewers the impression that Natalie didn’t appear that involved. I think thats something to watch as the season goes along. Jennie Finch was quiet and not involved last year and got the boot early. Natalie Gulbis is a smart business person and I think she will be fine.
It was a simple boys versus girls contest in week one, with the team that sold the most dollars for the cupcakes they made winning. The producers gave us the impression the men were doing very well as they continually showed us the big checks coming in. The women, as it appeared, only received one very large amount at the very end of the competition.
As it turns out, the girl’s cupcake won a taste test and an additional $15,000 in sales as a result. This amount pushed them ahead of the male team and they won the challenge. All along it looked like Natalie Gulbis‘ team was going to lose and in the end they came out big winners.
Highlights included Natalie Gulbis getting blamed for a recipe error during the baking of the cupcakes that actually turned out to win them the competition when the recipe was doctored a little, Joan Rivers winning $150,000 for her charity as the project manager, and Andrew Dice Clay getting fired as a result of his lack of true effort and almost quitting the show in the boardroom.
All in all an interesting week one on The Celebrity Apprentice with Natalie Gulbis.
