Did the right person win The Apprentice?

Did the right person win The Apprentice?

So after 12 weeks of bitching, brawling, bartering and back-stabbing, the winner of The Apprentice 2009 is Yasmina. But did the right person win?

Well Kate-fans will probably poke me in the nose for saying so, but yes. So great was she as a leader that James felt compelled to pipe-up in the final boardroom, just to warn Sir Alan not to let her slip through his fingers (not that much could slide past those chubby little digits).

And based on the final task (which was ace by the way): even though Kate’s presentation was much better than Yasmina’s giddy performance, her chocolates were much more exciting and enticing than Kate’s, which actually resembled a box of tampons.

And their chocolates kind of summed them up as people: Yasmina’s a feisty risk-taker while Kate is great and lovely but perhaps a bit too safe and sterile. Anyway… congratulations Yasmina – enjoy the £100,000 a year.

And so The Apprentice is over for another year. But what valuable lessons have we learnt?

Lesson 1: If you’ve got a massive head and you sing stupid songs about pants, you’re probably a div.

Lesson 2: If you repeat the same boastful twaddle about places at Sandhurst or supernatural business instincts over and over again, you’re probably a div and you’ll probably get fired.

Lesson 3: If you mess with Debra, she’ll chew you up and spit you out like a strawberry and basil chocolate.

Lesson 4: If you lark about in birthing pools and say funny stuff all the time, you probably won’t get hired by Sir Alan Sugar but you probably are a legend and everyone will like you.

And Lesson 5: The Apprentice is still amazing.

    I'm surprized so many females support a woman who claimed her worst nightmare was to lead a team of women. She obviously relies on her looks to get her own way with men, just look at Phillip. I thought more women would see through her. Yasmina was straight and honest at all times and showed some flair and passion, unlike dull and predictable Kate.

    Most definitely the right candidate won. She made the largest profit ever on The Apprentice on one task. She's focussed and has a proven track record in her own business. Since when has it been a bar from competing when you already own a business. I believe she will be a great success alongside Lee Mcqueen who won last year and who will now be her manager.
    I think you people wanted Kate to win as she was the pretty one.
