Omarosa is back on Celebrity Apprentice and it didn’t take long at all for her to find herself at odds with some of the other people on the show. Losing her fiance’ Actor Michael Clarke Duncan not too long ago, Omarosa has talked about the hurt that she still feels over his untimely death and how she was managing to move forward with her life after the loss. Michael Clarke Duncan’s death has been brought up on the show and has driven Omarosa to tears. La Toya Jackson wasn’t buying her tears though as La Toya pinned Omarosa as the one responsible for Michael Clarke Duncan’s death and says she felt Omarosa was using his passing to get sympathy. Appalled that La Toya would make such harsh accusations, Omarosa clapped back at La Toya Jackson and is suing her for saying that she had anything to do with her fiance’s death. La Toya is sticking by her words though and looks to not be the only one who has their issues with Omarosa over her fiance’s passing.
And as for the funeral that Omarosa put together for her fiance’, Claudia Jordan said that the service was run was all for attention purposes. In an interview that she did with Power 105.1 The Breakfast Club, Omarosa was questioned about where she stood with Claudia and spoke on Claudia’s comments about the service that she had for her late fiance’ and calls Claudia thirsty for snapping photos during the service when it was made clear that that was not allowed, Omarosa saying that that sealed the deal as far as her friendship with Claudia was concerned:
“We were [friends] until she started tweeting from Michael’s funeral. And she’s sending stuff to the press during his funeral. And that just, that changed the game…You know, it’s so tacky, it’s disrespectful and I was done at that point. You’re that thirsty at my fiance’s funeral that you’re tweeting, texting and all that. And there was a big sign that said, ‘No pictures.’ Three-thousand people and she’s the only one. What kind of friend is that…There were three-thousand people there and I was dealing with it. Different members of the staff were coming and pointing out things and they were like ‘Should we escort this particular person out?’ And I said ‘I just have too much to deal with. Y’all handle her.’…I had his family there and people from all over the world so you know, that was just something I couldn’t deal with that day. But I knew I was going to handle it…”
An insider also revealed to Sister 2 Sister Magazine that Omarosa isn’t worried about Claudia and her commentary and that Claudia has made up beef going on in her own mind, the same kind of beef that Claudia Jordan said Tamar Braxton had with her:
“She’s not thinking about Claudia. It’s Claudia having a beef in her own head. Omarosa never had a red carpet [at Michael’s funeral].”
The insider also informed Sister 2 Sister that Omarosa would be sitting down with Oprah Winfrey in the near future.
Even after saying her piece on The Breakfast Club, Omarosa had a little more to say about Claudia as she called her a jealous bum for her comments about Michael’s funeral:
Peep the clip below of Omarosa’s interview:
Why does Claudia need to be jealous? lol
Both of these ladies need to have a seat. Bickering back and forth over a man’s funeral. Let him rest in peace!
I so agree!
SMH. I wish they would both drop it. I think it’s disrespectful to Michael’s death to argue and fight about this and do interviews about it.
Yes!
Exactly.
LOL. Anything for attention I guess.
I can’t believe this is what they are beefing about.
Over it. I just think it’s tacky for both of them to be calling each out over this and the man just died late last year. Pretty ridiculous.
A damn shame they made a circus out of this.
When will it stop? Sheesh. And if she doesn’t try to sue Claudia over those allegations, I’m going to have to believe there’s some truth to what she said.
Do either of these women have real careers besides reality TV?
