Catty Competition Finales

Joan Rivers Beats Out Annie Duke in 'The Celebrity Apprentice'

Season 2 of 'The Celebrity Apprentice' saw comedienne Joan Rivers hired over the poker diva Annie Duke for her skills within the business world (not her ability to change her facial expression). Rivers controlled the competition through hard-nosed, straight-faced (literally) dominant tactics.

The three-hour 'The Celebrity Apprentice' marathon ended with Duke’s summoning to the boardroom at Manhattan’s Museum of Natural History. There she heard Trump’s patented "You’re fired!" which stamped Rivers with the victory.
