An Apprentice candidate has claimed she has been barred from a spin-off show. Amy Anzel said she was banned from the You’re Hired episode after she complained about a Tweet posted by Lord Alan Sugar.
Speaking to GB News she said: "I'm a serious business person and it didn't work out for me. I did partake in the final to support one of the finalists, but when it came to the final taping of the You're Fired You're Hired show, I was not asked back sadly."
Amy was eliminated from The Apprentice in week six after failing to impress when the teams were tasked with organising the perfect adventure-filled experience for holidaymakers. After her exit from the BBC hit show Lord Sugar Tweeted: “Amy didn’t sell she was so slow. Slower than broadband Wi-Fi in Cornwall.”
Yorkshire Live reported that a pal close to Amy had told The Sun: “She (Amy) couldn’t get her head around her firing. “It came in week six because she’d not taken on the project manager role — but they’d failed to show she had put herself up for it in week two. She believed it was just an excuse to get rid of her.
"When Lord Sugar posted his tweets, she thought they were nasty, hurtful and insulting and told them so in an email.” They continued: “She knew the final taping was happening last Wednesday but they ignored her phone calls and emails again.
“Then Amy got an email saying that invitations were issued at their discretion.” However, as per usual, invitations for You’re Hired are always discretionary and never guaranteed.
After her elimination, Amy slammed The Apprentice winner’s prize of a £250,000 investment from Lord Sugar. She argued that after giving away 50 percent of the business, it “isn’t an amazing deal.”
