Dennis Rodman fired: Former NBA susperstar Dennis Rodman was fired from Donald Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice” on Sunday night.
Rodman was ousted from the business-themed reality TV show after his team failed to produce an adequate presentation of a skin care product operated by Trump’s wife.
As the Huffington Post noted, Rodman’s Team Power had lost four challenges in a row. However, Rodman’s could not spell the name of Melania Caviar Complexe C6, the skin care product correctly and instead, spelled Melania as “Milania.”
“Dennis there is a problem, her name was spelt incorrectly. That is a problem. That is not good. That is a bad one,” Trump said of the typo.
Rodman, however, contended that the error was a minor one.
“But we did not write the name, I don’t understand,” he said. “People do make mistakes, everyone does, that was a minor mistake that can easily be corrected.”
Trump shot back: “Well it is a minor mistake, but it is the ultimate mistake.”
But Trump heaped praise on Rodman, calling him “the comeback player of the year.”
“Dennis is a great guy, a great character and I hate to lose him,” he said, but ultimately uttered the famous last words to Rodman: “You are fired.”
