The multi-millionaire business mogul – who worked with Cheryl when she appeared on ‘Comic Relief Does The Apprentice’ in 2007 – thinks that the show’s boss, Simon Cowell, should bring back the ‘Promise This’ singer and her former co-judge Dannii Minogue.

In a message to Cheryl on twitter, Lord Sugar wrote, “For what its worth I think Cowell shud put you back on UK X factor and bring Danni back also.

“No doubt will b told to min own biz. (sic)”

Cheryl, Dannii and Simon have all been replaced by new judges, Tulisa Contostavlos, Kelly Rowland and Gary Barlow. The only original judge on the panel now is Louis Walsh.

Tulisa recently revealed that she was keen be herself on the show, and not look as if she’s trying to “fill Cheryl’s shoes”.

She said, “I was worried about being seen to be trying to fill Cheryl’s shoes, but I’m not.

“I’m just trying to being me. I was s****ing it on my first day, absolutely terrified.

“I swear it was the most nervous I have ever been in my life.
“I’m loving it, though, more than I ever thought I would. I’m just trying to be me, to be honest and say what I think. I’m not going to take any s*** though – that’s just me.

“I speak my mind.”

Just days after this year’s series ended, seeing Tom Pellereau crowned victor, the businesswoman said she’s been contacted by dozens of aspiring entrepreneurs who are looking for tips on how to make it onto the show.

She said, “I’ve had some people for the next year already that are interviewing saying ‘what do we do about this, what do we do about that’.

“My advice is don’t ask people, just go and do it.

“I also think if people need to ask advice in the interview it’s probably not the show for them, because you just need to be yourself.

“At the end of the day you are who you are. Just be yourself and if it’s the best you can do, what will be will be.”

Michelle, who won the second series, landed a job with Lord Sugar, but soon after she left to work on her own business – she recently set up family money-saving site LikeBees.com.

However, she revealed that she would’ve been attracted by the show’s new business investment format.

She said, “Working with Lord Sugar made me realise that I wanted to be my own boss and do my own things and I’ve got lots of different ideas.

“I had my own business before I went into The Apprentice as well, so I would’ve been suited better to the business side of things.

“The Apprentice can go on for as long as people want to keep watching it,” she added.

Felicity Jackson

Felicity Jackson became the latest hopeful to be sacked by Lord Alan Sugar on last night’s Apprentice episode.

The 24-year-old business woman had put herself forward as project manager of Team Logic for the most recent task, however after the group brought in a loss of £247 after failing to sell enough beauty treatments to the public, the Amstrad boss chose her to leave the series.

The entrepreneur is unsurprisingly unimpressed by the outcome and has insisted that the betrayal of fellow contestants Ellie Reed and Natasha Scribbins led to Sugar’s decision.

She told BANG Showbiz: “I do stand by saying that I was stabbed in the back, but at the end of the day it’s a competition and everyone was in there to save themselves. If you’re not prepared to fight to stay there then the show isn’t right for you.”

Despite a frosty goodbye between the trio, which saw Felicity refuse to shake hands with her former candidates, she maintains they are “good friends”.

She added: “Everyone thinks the way I left was this big deal and that we all hate each other, but I am actually quite good friends with Ellie and Natasha.”

The only thing the London-based creative arts expert regrets during her time on the BBC One show is letting down Lord Sugar, as the multi-millionaire technology mogul has always been her business “inspiration”.

Felicity explained: “It was a real disappointment. I have always been inspired by Lord Sugar and I just felt disappointed in myself for the outcome of the task.
“Being in the boardroom very scary experience and very nerve-wracking. It almost winds you when you go in there. You feel out of breath, hot under the collar, you have to think about what you’re going to say, what the right words are going to be. It really is a scary prospect sitting in front of Lord Sugar.”

Stuart ‘The Brand’ Baggs has claimed that the camera added ten stone to his weight, when he appeared on ‘The Apprentice’.

The 22-year-old entrepreneur – whose corny catchphrases earned him notoriety on the BBC business based reality Tv show – joked that he looked like a ‘baby stuck in a jam jar.’

He said: “They say the camera adds 10lbs, but I think it added 10 tonnes to me on ‘The Apprentice’.

“It was bad, especially when I had to wear a helmet on the racetrack. I looked like a baby stuck in a jam jar.”

However, the big headed businessman – who narrowly missed out on a place in ‘The Apprentice’ final after failing to impress boss Lord Alan Sugar at the interview stage of the business competition – believes once he shifts the pounds, he will be a “flawless diamond”.

Stuart added to Reveal magazine: “Although I’m big-headed and egotistical, I can still look in the mirror and think, ‘F***ing hell, I’m fat’.

“Plus, being fat is the only flaw I’ve got so, once that’s eliminated, I’ll be a flawless diamond.”

Channel 4 has recommissioned their daytime programme Celebrity Five To Go.

In the entertainment series, five celebrities go on holiday together and they compete in a series of tasks to be crowned the best travelling companion.

The stars then vote to send their least favourite holiday companions packing, not realising that the final decision of which one of them wins lies in the hands of a panel of local people they meet along the way, including the overworked villa staff.

Taking part in the upcoming run will be The Apprentice star Stuart Baggs, Christopher Biggins, Paula Hamilton, Sheila Ferguson and former cricket star Ed Giddens. The group will travel to South Africa later this year.

It had to happen! Reports today suggest that cocky Apprentice star Stuart ‘The Brand’ Baggs could be set to land his own TV show.

After becoming notorious for his dodgy catchphrases, including ‘Everything I touch turns to sold’, TV bosses are reportedly falling over themselves to hire the cocky businessman for a new reality TV show.

The 21-year-old telecommunications entrepreneur – who was famously branded “full of sh*t” when he was fired by multi-millionaire tycoon Lord Alan Sugar – is currently in talks to appear on the small screen.

Sacha Taylor-Cox, celebrity manager at Impressive PR, explained: “Love him or hate him, Stuart has a great profile for TV. Our strategy should see him on our screens for some time.”

Stuart has made no secret of his desire to further his TV career after shooting to fame on the BBC One series.

He recently said: ” Life is Brand-tastic to be honest. ‘The Apprentice’ has changed my life. I was planning on going back to my business and putting ‘The Apprentice’ to bed. But then production companies started calling and asking whether I’d considered doing any more TV, so we’ll see whether anything takes my fancy.

“I imagine it would be along the lines of going to the jungle or ‘Dancing On Ice’. I would actually love to do that, I’d put rockets on my skates and skate through fire. I actually want to go on that show. It’d be much better than eating bugs.”

Apprentice reject Stuart “The Brand” Baggs has claimed that he was glad to be dropped from the BBC show, because Lord Sugar’s £100,000 a year job was too low paid for him.

The telecoms “entrepreneur” from The Isle Of Man said that the wage offered by the business guru wasn’t enough to make him get out of bed in the morning.

Stuart told The Sun:

“What’s £100,000? That’s about £65,000 after tax. I wanted way more.”

“It’s nothing, it’s a starting salary. I wouldn’t get out of bed for that.”

Stuart Baggs ‘The Brand’ has revealed that he hopes to land a role on another reality TV show.

The former ‘Apprentice’ candidate – who became notorious for his hilarious catchphrases on the BBC One series in 2010 – admitted that since the series aired, he has been inundated with offers from various TV companies and is particularly interested in appearing on next year’s ‘Dancing On Ice’.

He said: “Life is Brand-tastic to be honest. ‘The Apprentice’ has changed my life. I was planning on going back to my business and putting ‘The Apprentice’ to bed. But then production companies started calling and asking whether I’d considered doing any more TV, so we’ll see whether anything takes my fancy.

“I imagine it would be along the lines of going to the jungle or ‘Dancing On Ice’. I would actually love to do that, I’d put rockets on my skates and skate through fire. I actually want to go on that show. It’d be much better than eating bugs.”

However, the cocky businessman admitted he doesn’t expect to be particularly popular with viewers, as he’s a self confessed “c**k”.

Stuart added to Digital Spy: “The public already have their opinion of me and when you start at rock bottom it can’t really get much worse. I’m just as bad in real life. If people hate me it’s for a good reason – it’s because I’m a c**k.

“I gage the public’s reaction with what they throw at me, whether it’s sandwiches or bricks I’ll know just how much they hate me. My biggest problem in life is people throwing food at me.

The 22-year-old entrepreneur – who lost out on the chance to work for the business mogul at the semi-final stage of this year’s show – has every faith in his abilities to succeed, despite not winning ‘The Apprentice’.

He said: “Will I be as successful as Lord Sugar? Yeah, absolutely. I definitely see myself as uber-successful and y’know, I certainly will be or I’ll die trying. I suspect I might die trying.

“But I absolutely see myself as a multi-millionaire or a billionaire by that age.”

Stuart also predicted he will one day take a seat on the panel of ‘Dragon’s Den’ – which sees successful business figures invest their money into new ventures – and expects it to be sooner rather than later.

He added in an interview with heat magazine: “When I’ve earned my first million pounds, I’ll definitely be a Dragon. I think I’ll make a million pounds by the age of 25, realistically. You know, you have to be realistic.

“I’ll have a million pounds in three years time. I’m well on my way there now – I’m just giving myself that grace period, just in case.”
