Omarosa: We Still Don’t Really Know Who She Is
Being a nobody is sure to be hard work, especially in the wonderful world of celebrity where it’s a constant struggle to get noticed.
To get noticed purely for being a no-talent twit with all the affability of a particularly itchy and prominently positioned boil, that is.
We at the mighty hecklerspray wouldn’t know about this from first-hand experience, of course, as we are friendly, approachable, talented and popular. As well as influential. But we learn how difficult it must be for these not-even-Z-listers that pop up every now and then when yet another publicity grabbing event occurs.
This time it’s the turn of Omarosa. Wait – who?
Ah – a ‘reality star’. Code, in this post-9/11 world for ‘utter nobody that for some reason still pollutes the airwaves with their pointless presence’. Or: ‘the American version of Jade Goody‘. Pointless, pointless people that drift through existence on a diet fit for a king, known by passers-by and actually liked by some members of the public. Solely because they once did one thing on some TV show or another.
Yes, this is the camp that Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth falls firmly into. And she’s helped her ‘I have nothing worthwhile to contribute to society’ quota no end with an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show on Monday, where she proceeded to have an argument with the host and generally be something of an attention-seeking waste of space.
Apparently irritated by the introduction she recieved to the show, Omarosa proceeded to rant, snatch back her book she was there to promote (probably called ‘How To Lose Friends, Alienate People, And Register Even Lower On The Celebrity Scale Than Toby Young’) and mock host Wendy Williams’ looks.
Well, it’s certainly an interesting take on the whole chat show guest thing, kind of bringing in a new level of idiocy to proceedings. Why bother politely accepting the fact that you’ve been deemed worthy of appearing on national television and are allowed a few minutes of time, to yourself, to hock whatever it is you want to sell to the plebs this week when you can be a complete knob about things and make the public that already dislike you hate you even more?
But hey, at least Wendy Williams managed to respond in a professional and thoroughly correct manner to the whole debacle, telling the Associated Press that she believed Omarosa to be:
“A delusional, D-list, pathetic woman.”
Now that’s a quote well and truly worthy of the giganto quote marks. Fancy a job at hecklerspray, Wendy?
Check it out for yourselves, folks:

HOLY BATTLEAXE BATMAN
I disagree with you. My mom does not even watch TV and she still knows who Omarosa is. Regardless of whether she is a “reality star” or not a lot of people people still know who she is. Maybe even more so than Wendy Williams. Your story is so one sided saying that Wendy put her in her place by behaving “professionally.” You clearly need to look up professional. Wendy did not behave professionally. She grabbed the book out of Omarosa’s hand. The whole affair was not classy – it doesn’t make Omarosa or Wendy look any better.
