Well you can say many things about Celebrity Apprentice2009, but boring is not one of them, and after her shock walkout a few weeks ago, who would have thought that Joan Rivers would have been crowned the winner.
There will be mixed feelings about Rivers beating rival Annie Duke, which all came to a head in this three-hour live finale. The win did not come easy for Joan Rivers, as they two of them had to raise money for their respective charities. They did this by trying to sell Cirque du Soleil tickets and providing a pre-show VIP party.
Annie was ahead in earnings; Annie also won props for integrating her charity well with the final challenge. But it was Joan who managed to pull in bigger celebrities, as well as integrating big sponsors, Kodak.

I have lost all respect for D. Trump. Selecting this hideous ,foul-mouthed insulting woman as the celebrity apprentice. Her and her leech daughter should have gone on the first show. I have watched every apprentice show ,but with this biased,undeserving win, I am finished..never again. What did Joan do,Donald,….pay you to win???
I cannot believe Trump selected Joan Rivers over Annie Duke!! Joan Rivers is just a loud, racists hypocrite. She’s argumentative and new listens to anyone’s ideas, etc. Way to go Trump!!
Never listens…sorry
DONALD TRUMP MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. ANNIE WAS CONIVING. I TOTAL THINK HE MADE THE RIGHT DECISION. IN THE END JOAN DID WIN MORE OF THE 5 CATEGORIES, NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENED IN THE PAST SHOWS.
Terrible end to a great show this season. Annie Duke outplayed Joan by far – she took the high road every time. Joan insulted and cried through the whole show, as did her poor pathetic looking daughter who would be nothing without mamma. Looks like both of them have had too much botox. Donald screwed up picking Joan.
What was up with Donald telling Annie “to be fair, you don’t know if your friends are in the mafia or not” WTF? I think she would know better than Joan if they were or not!
