Former The Apprentice star Amy Anzel slams BBC business contest as 'car crash TV' and calls for Lord Sugar to be 'fired'

She was fired halfway through the process of last year's series of The Apprentice, and Amy Anzel has slammed the BBC One business competition as "car crash TV" while calling for business magnate Lord Alan Sugar to be "fired." Beauty boss Amy, who was shown the door by Lord Sugar in week six, told us that series 17 is a difficult watch for her.

Amy has seen her beauty brand Hollywood Browzer Beauty, stocked by the likes of Boots, River Island, Amazon and Argos, go from strength to strength. Last week she was thrilled to learn that her dermaplaning beauty tools will now be sold in the Middle East after being snapped up here in the UK, in her homeland America and as far as Australia and New Zealand.

"It's very hard to watch the show. I feel so sorry for the candidates," she told us. "They never celebrate the small wins. In business you have bad days but it's always so negative and it's getting worse and worse. These are the young entrepreneurs of the future and they are making fun of them all the time."
