Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, tagged as an imperious diva on "The Apprentice," criticized the NBC reality show for stereotyping her and other black contestants.

"Once you start looking at how all the black men are lazy and laid-back and nonassertive and nonaggressive and all the black women are quite the opposite, I think there is a pattern," she said Wednesday.

Speaking at an NBC teleconference for another reality show, Manigault-Stallworth said she wasn't "sassing" executive producer Mark Burnett but contended that the show's editing was to blame.

Burnett fired back when asked to respond. "How insulting to other African-Americans," Burnett told The Associated Press. "What African-American man have we shown to be lazy? None of them. Kwame almost won the whole thing."

--Does she ever stop whining and bitching?

You Said

No, she never stops whining and bitching and she never will. Forget the "black" thing--it's who SHE is.

Disgusting. What's worse? She was paid $10,000 and flown first class to Japan just to say "You're Fired!" at a Tokyo business convention, and then hopped back on the plane and came home. Pathetic.

Some people are addicted to the spotlight. Omarossa be thy name.
