EPISODE 713
TITLE: “UNDER THE HAMMER”
TASK: CHARITY AUCTION & CONCERT

As the finalists work down to the wire preparing for the charity auction and concert, one celebrity fears the entertainers will refuse go onstage if their demands can’t be met. The other decides to limit the food for the event, hoping the guests will be more generous with their bids if they are drunk. The moment of truth arrives, and so do the stars. With the auction over and nearly a half million dollars raised for charity, Donald Trump is faced with the final decision – who will be fired, and who will become the Celebrity Apprentice.
The Celebrity Apprentice does not win a position in Trump’s organization, but wins $250,000 dollars for their charity.

Trump’s Eyes and Ears: Ivanka Trump and Donald Trump Jr.

First as a proud member of a group that rides for heroes to protect them, started out to be from many protesters and now, that but also to honor them, I extend thanks to your family member.

But on another note, I wonder if he is one of the people that Piers had donated one of the tickets to as he said he wanted to on the 20th.

I found this on TV Squad.

"Utilizing the region where this season's Apprentice was shot . . . Los Angeles . . . the live season finale will be held at the famous Hollywood Bowl, one of the largest natural amphitheaters in the world and home to the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The theater, which seats over 17,000 spectators, is a fitting place for Trump, who is not known for being too conservative when it comes to showing off. The finale will air at 10 p.m. on April 22nd."

Live Apprentice Finale

That was a totally different season (season 6 I believe) - not this one - the finale is in New York and is live for the most part - and it is on TV this Thursday the 27th

Ooops!! - replicated what had already been said!

oh go ahead - play it again sam - er - say it again

I know I do that too - I start to post and then dont see that someone answered almost as soon as I hit submit

Whooops!! Yes, you are right. I was in a hurry and went by what the google blurb said and didn't check before I posted.

This is what it looked like - you can see how I might have messed up my info -

Does anybody know the exact location to answer safrinha's question? I can't seem to find it anywhere.

I don't think I've been this excited for a show to start in a long time. Used to feel that way about the season premier for ER.

It's being held in just THREE MINUTES
In studio 8 (where they film Saturday Nite Live!!)
Gotta go!!!!!!

Thanks!

I am so lovin' Trace...but I also love Piers....I want Piers to win it!!!

It seems as if Trace has the audience in his favor right now!
He is a pretty funny guy!

It sounds like you just want someone to say hello to Trace for you.
Are you really sincere in your thanks?

I can't believe BSB have the audacity to act in such a manner. This explains why NOT one of them is successful and the group's practically forgotten until Trace revived them...only for them to show who they really are...FORGETTABLE! I'll NEVER support BSB in anything they do EVER again. Wheat grass juice and black nail polish?? Are they for real?! Go TRACE from a NYC girl who loves you!

I agree with you but he needs to be aggressive to win and I wish Omarosa
wasn't even on the show.Almost didn't watch tonight beause of her.

well of course Trace is gonna be great at that part - and remember that he said 2 out of 3 and he had already predicted that Piers would beat him on the auction part so .... shot I wish it would come on here - another hour but I am reading parts on another board

P4P~
That is correct!
Piers got his money fair and square!
And I would like to add that I thought having the US forces there was really a great feeling!!!

Trace just showed his true colors and Trump is just as rude.
Piers did not say anything bad about Trace's donors.
He is exactly right about Steven also,they should get get off of his back
Trace couldn't raise jack crap..

The Back Street Boys should be embarrased and ashamed of their "DIVA" perfomance on the Celebrity Apprentice tonight... Grow up boys, you are too old to be acting like spoiled babies!

I'm on the west coast and the show just started. Would someone please tell me who won?

Who won?

No one yet.

how long is the show 2 nite?

2 hours

Definitely not fair tonight.

Of course, the majority of the celebs would pick Trace because he's such a "good ol' boy".

Piers did absolutely nothing wrong during his run on the Apprentice.

I fear Trump will choose Piers.

BTW. Nice hit Piers made on Omarosa.

Well, it's almost over. I hope Trace takes it.

If this were all about who could raise the most money, Piers should have been handed it on day one. He obviously has the contacts. This needs to be based on integrity and honorably representing your charity.

Phone bids are completely acceptable. The fact remains if this is solely about being able to get on the phone and raise money they should have given this to Piers on day one. I'll be completely disgusted if Piers wins.

I always thought Trace seemed like a good person. After watching him on The Apprentice....I LOVE TRACE. He has integrity and quality of character. He may not be able to raise large amounts of money, but he can be proud of the way he played the game. I would have Trace on my side any time!

I guess that means I'll have to wait until tomorrow to find out who wins.

Take it home Trace, you can do it. I think Piers made a huge mistake taking a phone bid.

They might as well change the title to the I love Trace show. It's quite nauseating.

Sucks that Trace didn't win that being said. Congrats to Piers and his charity.

Wooohoooo!!!!!!!!!!!!

Piers is the Celeb Apprentice.

Eat that Omarosa!!!!!

To our new celeb apprentice, Mr. Pires Morgan. He is soo disgusting and vile, that it kills me to congratulate him. Trace should have won.

I'm so disappointed that Trace didn't win! They both had great charities. Trace may not be the celebrity Apprentice, but he is definatly the better man in my eyes.

lol..awww ....lets be good sports about it ole bean!!!!

This will be the last time I watch "Celebrity Apprentice". Dollars raised should not be the ultimate goal of competition. Honesty and values should be seriously considered, as well. If you had to work for Piers or Trace, who would you work harder for? If Trace or Piers was your CEO, which company would you work harder for, in order to achieve success?

Thanks Donald for once again proving that nice guys finish last.

I just heard - and just now watching it - at least we all know that Trace had the popular vote from what I heard everyone - (except for 2 for Piers) gave their respect to him. He went far and fought the fight the only way he knew how - respectfully and with dignity which is what he said all along.

Now off to watch it and at least enjoy seeing Trace perform.

CONGRATULATIONS PIERS!
YOU DESERVE EVERY BIT OF THE FAME.

Trace Who?

But if you truly beleived that to be the case (DT was always up front with the criteria....) why did you watch it anyways?

I just registered to post this ..

Trace Adkins had me in a crying mess within 2 bars of his song ..

I relate very well to every lyric but especially the beginning, with the 18 year old girl not realizing how precious those moments are.

I think I'm a Trace Adkins fan for life now .. thanks to the Celebrity Apprentice!

Tonights conclusion and the emphasis on winning even if that means doing so without character, integrity, honesty, or class is why the Ken Lay's of the world are screwing over the people of this country.

The Piers may have won but I'll take a smaller % in my portfolio, a smaller return on my investments, and if running a charity, a smaller contribution if it means I have to recieve it as a result of the behavior demonstrated tonight and throughout the series by Morgan.

And I used to think Trump had some class. Maybe Rosie was right!

In business values take a backseat to money. Which company would be more successful? One under Piers or one under Trace?

Well the dollar amount was the goal Cindy, it was about raising the most amount for charity.

Three cheers for Piers !

He's honest, direct and funny. It's wit not viciousness.


wb ...

To the PM of the Trace Adkins forum, you can now kick my ass for good, Piers has won as I know he would, I was reported twice, lets end it tonight, to the people who reported me because you have nothing else to do or says.. the battle is over, the UK has won, Piers was the best..and I have to commanded him for choosing the charity... so to all of the others, go back to your Country Music BS!!!

I was disappointed in the final decision of Mr. Trump. I think that Trace should have been crowned the Celebrity Apprentice. Anyone else agree?

this was a sham. piers only won because he knew people with more money. Trump always wants to go against what everyones opinion is, this time he has lost me as a viewer. This was just a ridiculous decision.

If this was going to be a battle of the rolodex then the deck should have been stacked with people who were all on the same level playing field. Not one of the other players had a chance against Piers' huge number of contacts. Trump should have been up front about his criteria from the start if it was going to come down to who had the richest contact.

I never watched the Apprentice before and I won't be watching it in the future because of the bad decision made tonight.
