We already know what Donald Trump is about when it comes to the ladies, so it shouldn’t be a surprise that he fired Khloe Kardashian from the 2009 season of The Apprentice for being Khloe Kardashian. If you’re wondering why she was on the show, remember it was 2009, and Kris Jenner thought all her daughters would be economically viable. It was a simpler time.
According to sources on the show, Trump complained to producers about Kardashian’s looks and itched to have her removed from the show. “He basically wanted to just get rid of her,” an editor on the show recalled. “He called her a ‘piglet.’” The editor said that Trump asked: “What is this? We can’t even get the hot one?” ― in reference to Kardashian’s sister, Kim. A second source at “The Apprentice” confirmed the incident, using similar words to describe what Trump said about the Kardashians. “He said: ‘Why don’t we fire Khloe? She is a fat piglet. Why did we get the ugly Kardashian?’” A third source, another editor, recalled the firing as being notable because of how personal Trump made it. “When they fired [her], it wasn’t on merit,” the editor said. “It was on him not liking her.” The editor said that Trump went to the staff and asked: “What’s the reason we can get her off [the show]?”
This is normally the part where I write my thoughts on whatever the article is, but what do you want me to say? No argument here.
