Katie Hopkins has been fired for the second time this year. Katie was the villain of this years Apprentice TV show on BBC One, but soon after leaving the show, was fired from her job in the Met Office.
Now it appears she has gotten the sack again, this time from her column in the Exeter Express and Echo. The editor took a poll from the readers, and they voted overwhelmingly to get rid of Mrs Nasty. 341 people voted for her to be fired, while only 66 wanted her to stay.
She told the Daily Mail: “People are always quick to knock those who are successful. Those who are in opposition are always more ready to make their voices heard than those in support. Read more & comment »

I just can’t believe today’s news that two different reality TV shows are bidding for the vile Katie Hopkins from this years Apprentice show.
I’m A Celebrity chiefs hope she will head into the jungle in November and Sky One bosses want her to do the next series of Cirque De Celebrite.
An insider said: “She’s the ultimate alpha female. It will probably come down to money as to who gets her.”
No doubt she will choose the ITV option, as everyone knows this is the bigger show, and ultimately this one just wants to be famous!

Kristina Grimes and Simon Ambrose may be going head to head tonight in the Apprentice final, but even with all that rivalry between them, there is still something they can agree on. Unsurprisingly, they both have a deep dislike of the most recent Apprentice loser, Katie Hopkins.
Kristina Grimes told the Daily Mirror “If you think intelligence is sleeping with married men and only getting to wherever you are because you have slept there, then more fool you.”
Simon added “she has got more issues than the Beano. I think she should try to find some more married men. Hats off to her if she thinks that is the route she has to take.”

Katie Hopkins sensationally pulled out of the race to become Sir Alan Sugar’s next Apprentice as part of the BBC reality TV show.
Katie was already employed in a £100,000 a year job and many questioned her motives for applying for The Apprentice when the money would remain the same.
However, after giving up on her chance to work with Alan Sugar, Katie has now found herself unemployed after being sacked from her role in the Met Office this week. Read more & comment »

Sir Alan Sugar suspected that Katie Hopkins had entered The Apprentice purely to win and gain some exposure but little did he know!
Katie’s step daughter Charlie McKinney has today claimed that Katie is very impressed with the idea of celebrity and also applied to be on Big Brother. If I am honest i think she was probably better suited to BB.
McKinney told the Daily Mirror: “Katie went for Big Brother and was a stand-by. She’s very into celebrity. I wouldn’t be surprised to see her on the next Celebrity Big Brother.”

Tonight saw the semi final of the BBC reality TV show, The Apprentice.
Controversially, instead of sacking one person, Sir Alan Sugar announced that he would sack three, to make room for two people in next weeks final.
The contestants had to endure three rigorous interviews with trusted business associates of Sir Alan, who then fed back their opinions to the boss man.
Sir Alan quickly arrived at his decision to get rid of Lohit and Tre (FINALLY!) but was in a quandary when it came to decide between Katie, Kristina and Simon. Read more & comment »

Katie Hopkins and Paul Callaghan were the love story of this years Apprentice show. Well I say love, I really mean lust. The pair are reported to have often sneaked away from the rest of the group to engage in a noisy romps. I suppose it helped them relieve the stress!
A show insider told The News Of The World: “The contestants were all letting their hair down after a tense day doing the doggie task when they had to design a pet product.
“There was no stopping Katie and Paul as the booze flowed. They had been flirting outrageously and obviously just couldn’t wait any longer. They ran up the stairs giggling like schoolkids to the empty room and slammed the door behind them. Next morning, Paul admitted they’d had sex. Read more & comment »

Paul Callaghan and Katie Hopkins have decided to escape the wrath of Sir Alan Sugar and call off their brief fling.
The pair had infuriated Sir Alan by getting together while filming for the BBC’s latest Apprentice series. Sir Alan was adamant that contestants should not mix business with pleasure.
Seems like they now agree.
