A “dramatic” situation is percolating on Celebrity Apprentice this season: Deaf actress Marlee Matlin met Gary Busey for the first time, and she immediately observed that he spoke too loud and had trouble understanding conversations. She realized he was partially deaf and pulled him aside and suggested he see her hearing doctor. The doc told Busey he had only 40% of his hearing and fit him with a hearing aid. (Since it was filmed for the show, he probably got it free.) He communicates better now, but what he says is still pretty outrageous.

LOL Natalie. Thanks for the laugh. Gorgeous photo of Marlee Matlin by the way Janet.
Good for her, but couldn’t his doctor, family or friends tell him long ago?
Too funny Natalie! I got a big chuckle out of that one.
Either Marlee Matlin is aging pretty darn well or someone has been playing with the photoshop again. Regardless, she is a lovely lady.
Anger management is needed.
I think it’s awesome, but I’m very curious to know how she could “observe” he was “speaking too loudly” when she herself is completely deaf. Someone must’ve told her. I do get that she could notice that he was having trouble understanding, though. Good for her for sticking up for him in the boardroom, too!
