LISA LAMPANELLI: WHERE CREDIT IS DUE

Back in 2012, insult comic Lisa Lampanelli, 57, had gastric sleeve surgery and lost 107 pounds. She promptly divorced her husband and decided to quit doing stand-up and hosting celebrity roasts, and become – of all things – a life coach! She’s got the whole thing going nowadays with workshops, podcasts etc. Nice to see that she’s still enjoying her new shape AND she wants to help others re-direct their lives. We like success stories…

WILL QUEEN OF MEAN LISA LAMPANELLI LOSE HER EDGE ALONG WITH HER WEIGHT?

It will be interesting to see if her weight loss changes Lisa Lampanelli’s attitude. Lisa and her husband Jimmy have both had gastric sleeve surgery and as a result, she’s lost 60 lbs. When she was on Celebrity Apprentice, Lisa was an angry overweight comic – she gobbled fast food and was critical to the point of cruelty to her slim and pretty competitors. As smart as Lisa is, she must have seen her negativity on the show turned off a lot of viewers and did little to enhance her popularity. Now that she’s losing weight she not only LOOKS better, she seems happier and less combative, but still funny. Feeling better about herself makes a difference. Good for her!

ARSENIO HALL PARLAYED CELEBRITY APPRENTICE INTO A SHOWBIZ COMEBACK

We were happy to see Arsenio Hall turn out to be the winner on Celebrity Apprentice. Happily, neither of the smart but mean spirited women, Lisa Lampanelli or Aubrey O’Day, came out on top. When his talk show went off the air in the mid 90’s, Arsenio disappeared. During his heyday, he palled around with Eddie Murphy and they ruled the club scene and made funny movies. When that ended Arsenio dropped out of sight and we’re betting he felt forgotten by his showbiz friends. So it was nice to see him resurface on Celebrity Apprentice and use it as a way to get back in the spotlight. It worked. He’s got several offers for another talk show and seems thrilled with it all.

LISA LAMPANELLI AND OTHERS SHOW THEIR “TRUE COLORS” ON CELEBRITY APPRENTICE

Lisa Lampanelli is using “Celebrity Apprentice” to make herself more famous but also universally disliked. Her outright bullying and egotistical tirades against Dayana “Miss Universe” Mendoza on the show are an embarrassment. (And a disgrace to the female sex!) Yes, contestants are paid a lot to be on this show and they are pushed to have conflicts and meltdowns. But to completely abandon the idea of decent manners and treatment of others is inexcusable. One can criticize another person without histrionics and demeaning insults. Donald Trump seems to be gleefully bringing out the WORST in everybody. Aubrey O’Day has the same kind of ego and sense of entitlement as Lisa, but she’s SNEAKY about it. And Arsenio Hall and Clay Aiken aren’t the nice guys we thought they were. Of all people, New Jersey Housewife Teresa Giudice so far seems clearly appalled by the others’ behavior. As a result of these performers destroying their own reputations, the show is MESMERIZING.

LISA LAMPANELLI TO VICTORIA GOTTI: “YOU CALL YOURSELF A WRITER???”

Celebrity Apprentice continues to be fascinating, although Sunday’s “Medieval Times” theme was not so hot. Still, a lot of celebrity quirks were revealed and Victoria Gotti ended up the big loser. Our favorite moment occurred when the women’s team leader Lisa Lampanelli slammed Victoria Gotti, saying “She calls herself a WRITER, but I noticed she spelled medieval “MID-EVIL!”
