She hasn't got confidence is showing herself in a bikini. But if she's ever on a beach in summer, she could wear one, not that you'd see her in it, unless you were there. She did make the comment about herself, when she need not have done, but still made it. End of story.

They were all fame hungry as they went on a TV show, talked crap for most of the time, were useless at Tasks, didn't get on with each other etc. A real business person wouldn't be on Reality show as they'd be working hard keeping an eye on their business.


Only suggested tea it's what I drink, but can give you cold water as well, as both are all I can drink these days. If you can drink all sorts then aren't you lucky!
Even if she did say the comment about not having the confidence to wear a bikini, that doesn't necessarily mean that if she did have the confidence, that she'd choose to pose in shoots like Frances and Jessica did. And your penultimate paragraph is a huge assumption. The five people who won the Apprentice since the format changed in 2011 have had successful businesses, so you can't suggest that real business people don't go on Reality TV, as they clearly do. Sometimes, you need exposure to have success in business, and TV gives you that platform to success. Obviously some of the candidates are more interested in becoming famous, but certainly not all of them.

You also missed those words.." as if"
So what point were you making then?

Did you actually bother to read what she said?

When asked about their pictures, the Welsh businesswoman said: “Oh God no, I wouldn’t do what they’ve done. I would absolutely not do that.
“The world is not ready to see me in a bikini if I’m honest.
Fellow contestant Frances Bishop has frequently been pictured in a bikini as well as participating in a steamy underwear shoot
“All it should come down to is work ethic and business plans.

“If women want to look good and feel better by putting on a bit of make-up and wearing nice clothes, then all power to them. But I don’t think looks should have any bearing.”
where is the bitching?

There isn't any, OP is just salty that this year there was a "Crap Winner" (in their own words, in the episode discussion thread), and so they're seemingly trying to bring Alana down a peg or two for having the nerve to win the competition.

If Courtney had won, would he be expected to do photoshoots in his boxers? I am pretty sure that Joseph, Mark, Rick and Tom were not asked to bare all when they won.
Those photos of Jessica and Frances are very tacky, I think Alana has more about her than that, she is serious about her business.

Someone remind me never to buy the Sun again. Oops, what am I saying? I have never bought it anyway.

Hope she doesn't get her kit off.

She oozes sex appeal as she is. What a lovely face and I love the "doe eyed" look she does.

She could definitely be the new Nigella.

It's funny that the grown up young boys in this subject hate that Jessica is a stripper, oh no she's done it again, all her clothes fell off. Ironic really considering her business plan.

She might not do 'style' shoots but she'll go on TV chatshows with her cakes and talk about her brand.


What a strange thing to do - shocking !

I know you wanted Courtney to win - but really.

And with Courtney in mind I can't see him being on TV much with " F*ck Off Doormat " - unless it is after the watershed

* Agrees to photoshoots* = "Slag!"

*Refuses photoshoot* = Prude!

Because how dare she even suggest she won't take her clothes off for the papers! The damn prude! Jessica and Frances are doing it so you just know that when her business gets on rocky territory we'll be seeing her risqué photos all over The Sun because of course we will

/sarcasm

I don't get this thread. Alana said she doesn't feel comfortable taking her clothes off for the public and should leave it at business only, good, not bitching, not prudish, end of thread.
