He's a winner

I'm sure anyone reading this blog already knows who made the final two in Celebrity Apprentice so this hopefully shouldn't ruin the surprise. After surviving yet another boardroom and making it to the final four Meat Loaf, along with the other contestants faced an interview with the three previous winners. The panel asked questions on their weaknesses, the things they had to offer the competition as well as the contestant they'd throw under a bus. Whilst I felt that one of the panel seemed to have it in for Meat, I felt he handled it well.
It came to the firings and the first to go was Lil' Jon who was fired because when asked by the panel who he thought should be in the final two he didn't give himself. With Lil' Jon gone Donald Trump went to focus on to Meat Loaf's emotions and although he said that he liked the fact that Meat wears his heart on his sleeve, his emotions weren't always an advantage in the business setting and Meat was fired.
Meat Loaf may not be called a 'winner' in terms of the show but I feel that sometimes that everything particularly if you're not true to yourself. Throughout Celebrity Apprentice Meat has demonstrated that he's a hard worker, is passionate about everything he does and his charity but is also someone that will stand up for himself if needs to be without making any enemies. I have more respect for a person like that than one who wins by backstabbing or cares only about making themselves look good.
Not only that but there are plenty of things that Meat has achieved in his time on Celebrity Apprentice, most notably the $204,580 he raised for The Painted Turtle. He also says that he's learnt so much about himself from doing the show and that too should be considered a victory.
