I met Donald Trump in 2003 on a reality show. Could you ever imagine then that we would end up in the White House together?
Obviously, many people may remember me as the first winner of 'The Apprentice,' but prior to that, I was an entrepreneur. I started my first business when I was in college, and then getting my lucky break was when Donald Trump hired me on.
I was actually on two reality shows, which is crazy. Just to think that, out there, there was some guy, like flipping through the channels, being like, 'Hey, I 69'd her on a cruise ship.
If you watching remember The Miz at the time when he was on 'Real World,' he was a character known as The Miz. He always wanted to get into sports entertainment, as did I. In a very similar likeness, I was EA All Day.
I am a reality TV legend. I am most famous for the first season of 'The Apprentice,' and then I had an opportunity to work in Washington in the Trump White House.
I've been invited to do 'Dancing With the Stars' three times, but Lifetime said no.
It seems I am more beloved on a reality show from an extended cable network than I am in social circles in my own city.
I think the transition between singing covers on a reality show to being able to do my own thing was really exciting. I'm no longer singing covers every second, and people are actually getting to hear my own original music.
I'd like to believe that 'The Apprentice' was a big hit because I was such a superstar in the first season.
