Fired Paloma: It’s Lord Sugar’s loss
LIPPY Paloma Vivanco was axed from the Apprentice tonight after irritating Lord Sugar in the boardroom – and then claimed her sacking was his loss.
The Peruvian-born contender fell foul of the show boss after she turned on colleagues following her Apollo team’s failure in a fashion task.
Lord Sugar told her she had “talked herself out” of the show with her outburst.
And the 29-year-old admitted her comments prompted her departure, saying: “The key reason that Lord Sugar got rid of me was because I got a little too lippy in the boardroom.
But she added: “I think it’s his loss to be honest.’
The two teams went head-to-head in establishing fashion outlets at Manchester’s Trafford Centre for their latest challenge.
But the �3,223 takings of Paloma’s Apollo team trailed the Synergy rivals by more than �500 and they lost.

She dragged Alex Epstein and Sandeesh Samra into the boardroom for the final showdown with Lord Sugar.
And, after ripping into her colleagues and launching into a tirade, Lord Sugar told her: “I don’t like your last outburst and from my 40 years in business and my personal instinct, I don’t like what I’ve seen across the table today.
“You’ve talked yourself out of this and if you had shut up a while back it may be someone else going. Paloma, you’re fired.”
