As we all know Donald Trump is running for President and because of that NBC and him parted ways. That means The Celebrity Apprentice is left without a host.
Today at the NBC TCA Summer Press Day, I was kind of expecting them to name who would be replacing The Donald, but that was not the news we got. NBC’s Chairman Robert Greenblatt instead said that they were giving the reality competition show a year off. He elaborated, “We’ve actually been overwhelmed by a number of really exciting people who have come forward and are interested in taking over the show.” When it comes to the rumored names like Magic Johnson and George Lopez, he says some are true, some are not. One thing he wanted to make clear today, is that there is absolutely no way that Trump will be back on the show even after he ends his campaign for President.
When they finally settle on the new head of the boardroom, he promises to let us know. Then he added, when it happens it will probably be big news. Which really makes me wonder who are some of the names that threw their names into the hat.
I don’t know about you, but I can’t wait for the announcement and for the show to come back. Even though Trump thinks the show was about him, it wasn’t. It was about the celebrities competing on the show. Anyone could’ve sat in that seat and the show would’ve just done as well.
UPDATE: Donald Trump took to Twitter and claimed that NBC did not say to him, “You’re Fired!” He Tweeted, “People don’t understand that I left The Apprentice to run for Pres—the Apprentice DID NOT leave me. Bob Greenblatt & folks @NBC were GREAT!” While this year might have been mutually agreed upon because of his candidacy, the future seasons were probably not.
NCIS is one of those shows where the male actors don’t have to take off their shirts, which is a shame after looking at this photo of Michael Weatherly. Seriously wouldn’t you like to see DiNozzo topless on the #1 show more often? I know I would and you don’t have to slap the back of my head for me to see that.
After several box office duds, Will Smith is looking to go back to his roots. TV Line is reporting that in the next few weeks, his production company will be pitching a reboot of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Details are still sketchy because it is in the early stages.
Even though they don’t say it, I am sure Will Smith’s youngest children Jaden and Willow will have roles on the show, since what else are they doing. I mean, it isn’t like their dad hasn’t bought remakes for them before.

Thirteen year old Molly Bergman wrote a musical letter to Donald Trump and she sings what most people are thinking to him. She tells him that he is embarrassing the nation and that he needs to take a vacation. Then after calling him a bully, she explains to him that it was fun at first but now he blows. This is all stuff I have been saying, and yet a teenager was able to turn it into a catchy song. One you will be singing until he finally drops out the race. Sadly, I thought that would’ve happened by now but it hasn’t. Who is left for him to insult before that happens?
When it comes to Molly, too bad that American Idol is ending before she is old enough to audition for it. I think she would’ve had a chance to win it all.
Craig Robinson is a wizard with the piano and yesterday on The Late Late Show, James Corden and him worked their magic with some classic kids songs. They sexed up Mary Had a Little Lamb, rocked out to For He’s a Jolly Good Fella, funked up Wheels on the Bus, got trippy with She’ll be Coming Round the Mountain and finally they brought the house down with the Itsy Bitsy Spider.
What they did was such a joy, I hope they consider releasing an album with those nursery rhymes done like that. I know I will be getting down with the updated version of Wheels on the Bus with my 20 month old niece because that is her favorite tune. It will be nice to change it up the next time she forces me to read that book to her. Not that I have a problem reading it to her.
