I'm not really meaning to argue, as I essentially agree with you.

I still miss Carolyn on the Donald's side of the table, as I thought she was a good example of a serious, hardworking, intelligent woman. I'd take her & George over the Trumplettes any day, but Ivanka has done a fair job of maintaining her composure amid the silliness and keeping her poker face on.

I agree - its nice to see the brains behind some of these faces (like Carol Alt). As for a Chippendales dancer, I don't think that interests the Donald.

I also miss Carolyn, but Ivanka is actually pretty good. I actually think she's a little more objective than Carolyn who seemed to side with the girls over the guys but didn't like the sexy women very much.

I think she looks and sounds a lot like Shannon Tweed..

I'm always amazed by how many of these "Celebs" have or did have some sort of business connection to....(drumroll)..The Trump Organization!! Golf stars who won tournaments at his clubs, poker player who won things at his casinos, comedians and singers who appeared at his casinos and/or Mar a Lago, fighters who fought at his sponsored events...the list goes on and on...It's all about Donald and his business interests, after all...

Yes it is, that's why it doesn't surprise me at all.

Donald Trump is the very definition of egocentric.

I don't think Melissa was on Celebrity Mole. She was on that I'm a Celebrity, Get me out of here! show and I think she came in second. But she does seem competitive.

I didn't watch Celebrity Mole so don't know about that, but you're right - she was on that "I'm a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Her" show. I didn't like on that show either.

Thanks for letting me know that. My reality shows are starting to blur together, it seems......

I thought the same thing. In fact, from promotional clips of the show, I thought it was Shannon Tweed. Too bad Gene Simmons was on last season. It would have been interesting to watch his dynamic with a Shannon look-a-like.

I disagree. Actually Brande appears to have some brains, is adorable and pleasant. I'm not crazy about glorification of a Playmate, but her portrayal in THIS show is not such a bad role model. You can tell how genuinely interested she is in charities. And Annie is quite smart too - a bit strong at times, but she is definitely in a world where you must hold your own. The golfer seems to be quietly doing very well. I think she'll appear stronger when she decides it's tactically smart to be a project manager. Obviously Joan Rivers prefers very strong women - but I'm still glad there's a lot of "mushy" women around. We need ALL kinds of women!!!

I really like Brande so far on this show but looking at her face, I felt like it was clear she'd had some plastic surgery and botox there, so just out of curiosity I looked up her age - she's only 34. Doesn't she look older? I thought from the plastic look she has that she had to be at least 40. Anyway, don't get me wrong she's beautiful and she does seem to have some intelligence and social skills, but I feel like her plastic surgeon really did her wrong on the look that she has right now. Maybe it will look more natural eventually.
