Deni Hines ruins Celebrity Apprentice

Deni Hines' tirades in Celebrity Apprentice were an abject lesson in ruining what has until now been a fairly spirited series.

“What do you do when you see a rabid dog? Do you poke it or do you leave it alone?” Deni Hines asked Jesinta Campbell on Celebrity Apprentice last night.

It would seem that many viewers watching the Reality show would have preferred if Nine had left Deni Hines alone, or preferably out of the series altogether.

Hines’ performance in front of the cameras was an abject lesson in ruining what has until now been a fairly spirited series.

Sure it’s dragged out its story points for too many episodes, it’s (successfully) skewed its cast into heroes and villains, and it’s wheeled out products and brands without much subtlety.

That’s all robust enough when there’s enough entertainment along the way.

When characters are simply playing up for the cameras, as Deni Hines and Max Markson did last night, the audience is entitled to cry ‘foul.’

Don’t insult us by padding out a 90 minute episode with phony bust-ups and lunatics who act like four year olds. At least Pauline Hanson was genuine with her friction. Even Jason Coleman’s ego has been believable. But Hines and Markson’s return added nothing to the game. They so hogged the cameras that I barely saw Shane Crawford do anything last night -and he hasn’t been eliminated like these two yet.

Talk about empty vessels making the most noise.

I also find it hard to believe that Mark Burnett would ever let an episode like last night’s go to air under his watch. His shows have been successful because they know when to hit a point, and when to move on.

Maybe Mr. Bouris should have fired the Producer.

How did editing did tirade after tirade into the show further the storytelling?

I got that ‘Deni = Bitch’ from the first exchange. In fact I got it from the promos that painted her as the Wicked Witch of the West.

Last night was so contrived we, as audience, were no longer able to suspend disbelief.

Sure it’s important to have a good villain, but if all they do is sour the fun …then what’s the point?

Deni Hines was dropped on her head as a baby, right? A lot……

leilamckinnon:
I’d rather have 2 Max Markson’s than 1 Deni

mr_ed_phillips:
It’s quite possible deni hines may never work again. Wow.

cameron_adams:
Deni Hines: “I don’t do jingles” – is that because no one offers?

Amzini:
Deni Hines is ruining celebrity apprentice for me, she really is one horrid human being. TV off now

freelancer_1:
I’m trying to find words to describe the waste of space that IS Deni Hines… How was I ever a fan? She’s just vile!!! 

easybee:
I Have watched ALOT of reality tv :-/ (shame face) but Deni Hines may be the most abhorrent character I’ve ever seen, ever

eloquentembrace:
Spicks and specks!! Relieve my Deni Hines related anger.

Tracey_J_C:
Deni Hines is THE WORST THING I have ever watched on television …

Headloc:
It’s weird to think on a show that had Pauline Hanson on it, that Deni Hines is actually the bad guy…

Supamcjazzy:
Why do they even bother putting Deni Hines on #CelebApprenticeAU she is not helping the show out in anyway!

  1. It was not possible for Jacinta or Shane to win. Having watched Deni’s outrageous bullying tactics and her extraordinary and unjustifed belief in her own talent, worth and importance, there is no way I, and I assume many others, could have walked into YBR with her in their commercial. Deni through her behaviour portrayed herself to be everything YBR belives it not , disengenuious, malicious, disruptive and self serving. Mr Bouris would have made a very poor decision to allow a commercial to go to air with one of the key actors so disliked by “reasonable” people.

  2. Deni is truly hideous and should have not been on the show as she is only a wannabe celebrity. What a stuck up old prune she is.

    On the other hand, I loved Warwick Capper and would love to see him again. Funny, sweet self-confessed 80’s icon.

    Jesinta is total class and I hope she wins.

  3. Jesinta is so beautiful, standing next to Deni hines is like a beautiful tulip next to a pile of you know what. Mrs 41 year old could not hack it, realising that she made two cover songs in the 90s that noone remembers or cares about….

  4. Deni said she’s being cyber bullied – there’s no excuse for any bullying – especially the bullying you did of those you felt were weaker than you and unworthy of your attention or consideration, Deni.

    Your rudeness, aggression and inability to manage it appropriately in your relationships with others suggests you should get some help.

    You’re 41 years old. You have many more years of unhappiness ahead of you if you don’t do something now.

  6. Deni Hines reminds me a little of Normal Desmond from Sunset Boulevard. She is an dellusional star in her mind – very sad. She is obviously going through a mid-life crisis, she has no career and is lashing out. Marcia needs to send her to the “Naughty Corner”.
