(Spoiler alert: Do not read on if you have not yet seen Monday’s episode, titled “It’s Like a Booze Cruise with Knowledge.”)
“Real Housewives of Atlanta” star Kenya Moore finds an adversary on any team she’s on and this week’s episode of NBC’s “Celebrity Apprentice” was no different.
On Monday’s episode, Moore battled Vivica A. Fox, with the ladies tossing verbal jabs at each other in the board room. When host Donald Trump asked Vivica if she was a fan of Kenya, all the actress could say was “she’s attractive” — far from a ringing endorsement.
“Well, I haven’t had any plastic surgeries to my face,” Kenya fired back.
“Stop it, baby,” Vivica advised. “You sitting over there with a badonkadonk that’s fake as hell so don’t go there. She had them boobs done, sitting over there with about seven packs of lashes on.”
The ladies were up for elimination with Geraldo Rivera and Team Vortex project manager Kate Gosselin. They lost after failing to create an interactive theme to showcase the high-end Trump National Doral resort in Miami.
Despite the ladies’ quarrel, Trump fired a shocked Kate.
“Wow. I didn’t see that coming,” Gosselin said as she left.
Earlier in the episode, the contestants split off into teams and recreated a Circle Line cruise in New York City. “Deadliest Catch” captain Sig Hansen stepped up as project manager for Team Vortex while Brandi Glanville filled in for Team Infinity.
Reviews from cruise guests selected Brandi’s team as winners of the challenge. Sig’s team faced criticism for its “Sexiest Catch” theme with Hooters’s waitresses and for Geraldo’s hosting that included shouting “Screw the terrorists” while passing the newly built World Trade Center.
“It just seems very hard for me not to fire you,” Trump said to Sig, noting the reality star’s experience as a captain.
Omarosa vs. Piers Morgan The woman America loved to hate, “Apprentice” alum Omarosa Manigualt, went toe-to-toe with journalist/host Piers Morgan on the spin-off's first season. On one episode, Omarosa welcomes Morgan to the “war room” by spilling her wine on his head. But Morgan came out on top, winning the season.

The late Joan Rivers vs. Annie Duke and Brande Roderick Don’t mess with the Mother Hen. Ever. Melissa Rivers and her mother, Joan, were both contestants on Season 2. But in “Right Guard, Right Way Out,” Donald Trump fired Melissa over poker player Annie Duke and Playboy playmate Brande Roderick (“Baywatch"). Joan wasted no time slinging insults at the pair after the board meeting. “You are a piece of shit,” Joan says to Duke with a stern finger before calling Roderick a “stupid blonde” all in the same breath.
NBC
Dennis Rodman vs. Clint Black NBA Hall of Famer Dennis Rodman went from “0 to 100” quickly during Season 2. Rodman had enough of Clint Black after the country singer-songwriter won a coin toss for team KOTU to take the second presentation slot. Rodman curses at Black and rips the microphone from him, slamming it on the floor. In the end, Rodman’s erratic behavior, drinking and sudden absences led to his firing.
NBC
Meat Loaf vs. Gary Busey Actor Gary Busey was known for his antics during Season 4, and it infuriated the “I Would Do Anything for Love” singer. At one point, Meat Loaf believes the “Lethal Weapon” actor stole his art supplies. Cue tirade. “You do not want to fuck with me,” Meatloaf yells. And Sugar Ray frontman Mark McGrath keeps Meat Loaf from lunging at the actor.
NBC
NeNe Leakes vs. Star Jones This verbal showdown happened between "Real Housewives" star Nene Leakes and former "The View" co-host Star Jones on Season 4. After Jones suggested Leakes as project manager for a task, the “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star called out the shadiness. “Who the fuck died and made you in charge of project managers?” Leakes asked. “Who are you? Who are you? I will take you down.”
NBC
Arsenio Hall vs. Aubrey O' Day Arsenio Hall made former Danity Kane member Aubrey O’ Day cry on Season 5 when the talk show host couldn’t hold back his agitation with the singer's ego. “She won’t remember, because if it’s not her idea, she won’t remember it. I’m not saying anything that’s not true,” Hall asserted.
O’ Day tried to refute Hall’s claim, even stating she had lost respect for him. “Because I have to kiss your ass for you to admire me,” Hall said, much to the shock of Trump.
NBC
Gary Busey vs. Gary Busey
The Oscar-nominated actor was never short on words or phrases during his stint on Season 4 and the “All Star” edition. He even had his own definition of “fun”: finally understanding nothing. On one episode, Busey takes the time to explain who he really is. “I’m an angel in an Earth suit,” he said while pointing to himself. No argument here.
