NBC to O.J. -- Like You, We're a Buzzkill

O.J. SimpsonDonald Trump might be thinking about taking a stab at bringing O.J. Simpson in for the next season of "Celebrity Apprentice," but NBC wants nothing to do with it. Can you blame 'em?

A source close to the Peacock tells TMZ that NBC has not -- and never was -- considering casting O.J. on the show.

Looks like instead of "You're fired!" the Juice will just have to settle for "You're guilty!"

16. To the kind gentleman regarding Keith Olberman on MSNBC. He has been there for about 7 or 8 years. That is where he wanted to go. These guys that do the news will do any news they can. The more it pays the better. He may have taken to ESPN job just to get on TV until his big break on MSNBC.

Regarding OJ, how is his search for "the real killers" going? He shouldn't be allowed on TV and certainly won't be a free man forever. I hope for the Brown's and Goldman's that he does some jail time even if it's only 15 years. He is old enough that 15 years may be his last.

Oh, we all know how accurate the National Enquirer is. If they print it, it must be true. LOL. You're pitiful, pie.

18. Wow. Donald Trump is turning into a real douchebag, isn't he? Maybe he always was. He really wants OJ on his show??!! He recently hired the ex-Mrs. Paul McCartney - Heather Mills - to be the judge in one of his beauty pageants and she was booed by the audience when she was introduced. And I remember him bringing back some horrible woman named Omaroso on one of his shows too. I guess he just wants a group of awful people that everyone hates and hope that people will tune in to see them. I'd prefer not to though.

Thank you, Lucy for calling out Pie on this one!

Pie:
Nicole was not OJ's wife, but his former wife, and let's says she WAS having sex, with the entire state of California, these are not reasons to be murdered by her FORMER husband. I guess you're one of those seriously clueless folks who think OJ's innocent. Hey, but then you read worthless crap like the National Enquirer (or, in your words: National Enquire). and we all know there's not a facet of truth in there.

20. I just hope whoever tells OJ brings protection, he is not somebody you want to piss off.

21. this dirtbag was guitly and the idiots on the jury that found him innocent should be made to serve his sentence - how can they stand to look themselves in the mirror!

23. O.J.Simpson is a MURDERER.
"The glove" that he gleefully proclaimed "didn't fit" was soaked in a dried-up blood of Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman.

25. Blah blah blah blah, he was found not guilty where it copunts, and Rosie is a big fat slob.

26. I think it is absolutely crazy. OJ has had his time in court, and the court has ruled now why is all of America still persecuting him, he has a family to take care of just like all other Americans and is entitled to earn a livinging. You would think that white men had never committed crimes against poor white women and slaves women, or that OJ was the first man ever to kill a woman. What he done was not right no not at all, but the justice system has spoken. Let the man live and make a living. This is just crazy. But only in America can one have had a trial and is still being tried everyday.

27. He's just going to Fire his ass once Donald brings him on the show its probably gonna boost his ratings up,

28. 6. NBC controls Donald Trump? It is too bad NBC decided to back and promote "the apprentice" after Mr. Trump called Rosie O Donnel "A fat Pig." Does this mean NBC doesn’t like overweight celebrities also? -I guess Donald wanted a way out, so an un-named source tells the media, that they were never considering casting O.J. on the show. Instead of calling the show "the apprentice," they should just call it NBC.

It has been PROVEN Rosie is a "FAT PIG" OJ was acquitted..........leave the guy alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

29. For once the majority of America agrees on something; "He is and was guilty" ..

And honestly anyone that would sleep with him would actually sleep with anything!
