Fired 'Apprentice' blasts "showman"

Fired Apprentice candidate Jennifer Maguire has criticised her rival Michael Sophocles for being a "showman".

Maguire, 27, admitted that she made mistakes during this week's challenge, but argued that Michael's lack of morals made him a worse candidate for Sir Alan's £100,000 job.

She told DS: "I think I would have been a better candidate to keep in the competition on the whole over Michael.

"It was brought up in the boardroom that he's a bit of a sh*t and I didn't think that was addressed by Sir Alan."

The marketing consultant added: "What sort of person would say that they would shaft absolutely anybody, including their own mother, to get a job?

"When somebody openly admits that, you've got to ask, 'What kind of of person are you?'. It's one thing being a business person, but it's another losing all your morals to become that.

"But I think it will all unravel and hopefully Sir Alan will see that. He's a showman and I don't rate him as a candidate whatsoever."
