Every time I see Laura, I'm reminded of an actress years ago in Eastenders. Shirley Cheriton played Debbie (I think) & ran the cafe with her husband Andy in the very early days of EE. She just reminds me of her.
She stated she was an attractive business woman. I don't know what kind of 'leading question' leads to that. Seems to me more like she is now embarrassed by her arrogance and is making excuses.
It's not just that anyway. I find her quite annoying in general.
It's quite easy to think of such a leading question; indeed I suggested one. If the subject of her attractiveness was raised by whoever posed the question, then I don't think there was any need for her to simper disingenuously and pretend she isn't.

No you didn't. Your example would not lead to someone proclaiming 'I am an attractive business woman'.
If someone led me by saying... 'as an attractive business person'... A humble response would be, 'really?' or 'thankyou' or something along those lines, not just 'I am an attractive business woman'.
That sounds more like something she just came out and said without any prompting to me.

Except she didn't say that. She said "Being an attractive businesswoman has its ups and downs, but people shouldn't be decieved as I can be a rotweiler". That's something someone might well say in response to a question such as "Is it difficult for you being an attractive businesswoman? Does it lead to people regarding you as just a bimbo?" And indeed for all we know she might have started by waving off the notion that she was attractive, and only after encouragement been brought to the quote we heard, though I suspect Laura knows very well from other people's reaction to her that she is an attractive woman.

Well if she doesn't want to be perceived as a bimbo, then maybe toning down on the make up might go some way to helping and dropping the lapdancer look. The same happened with Locke and Walshe. Now in business, those kind of women can have the opposite effect to what they want to create. The Apprentice has lost its credibility for me not inasmuch as it's had its day - although it certainly has - but the dolly birds and comments about the blokes who might be easy on the eye detract from the serious business in hand. There is no seriousness anymore and, what started out as one of the better reality programmes, has joined the others in becoming inane.There always has to be some element of good looking people and it's pathetic and that's only to get the viewers watching - quite frankly who have never grown up. If you want to watch some t(t, then expect to see it elsewhere.

Oh come on. Wnen was The Apprentice ever serious business?

lol, yeah concede on that one. Everything is pre-ordained - same as Brady 'getting' her daughter modelling jobs and I've been reading that she's thinking of 'getting' her daughter a saturday job in her local Topshop. The same as the sales and marketing appointments that Sugar arranges - none of it is realistic. It's about who you know, which is only one reason why I can't take this programme seriously.Then again, you can't blame Brady's daughter, she's being taught by her mum. In the real world, you have to hit the ground running and make things happen not have it all handed to you in your lap. How many times would you have to be told no before you even got an appointment like they have in the programme? This programme [half-heartedly] tried to empathise with the state of the economy last year and now it's all back to bulls((t. It's so now reminiscent of the 1980's Wall Street film where charlie sheen 'bagged the elephant'. Rubbish but good TV for the masses I suppose. About as realistic as Brady's book: Superwoman and how to juggle a career with kids - think it's called an army of nannies.

Oh dear.

If I walked past her on the high street I wouldn't notice her. She's a plain Jane

Or maybe you shouldn't judge her by her appearance. "Dropping the lapdancer look"? Really? That's how you choose to criticise her?
Looks are subjective anyway.
