The cat fighting between comedian Joan Rivers and poker pro Annie Duke looks like it is going to be especially intense next weekend on Celebrity Apprentice. A promo for the series shows Rivers stating that "when Annie (Duke) is ready to get her face lift, she'll need two doctors (to perform the procedure)". Ouch! Rivers is known for having multiple facelifts while Duke certainly doesn't need one.
In the boardroom this week, Donald Trump told Annie Duke "to get out of the room" because every time she opens her mouth, "Joan starts seething". Rivers later commented that "(Annie) has a hidden agenda. She's a poker player."
The two have been at odds practically from Day One. The feud spilled outside the show last week when Rivers implied Annie Duke was evading taxes on her Twitter page.
Thought ratings have been steadily declining for the series, Donald Trump claimed this week that NBC was considering combining both the Celebrity Apprentice and his regular Apprentice shows into a single season.
Ms. Duke is a celebrity endorser for the online poker group UltimateBet.com.
