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

Posted Apr 24th 2008 9:35AM by TMZ Staff

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. 16. "since OJ’s wife was having sex with all the employees, including the manager, pictured on the cover of the national enquire.Posted at 10:49AM on Apr 24th 2008 by pie"

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

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. 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.

22. 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.

23. What is wrong with Donald Trump (mid life crisis perhaps) no one wants to see OJ the murderer on TV or anywhere else, he shouldn't even be walking among us.

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

25. 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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

26. 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!

29. DONALD TRUMP IS A DESPERATE FAMEWHORE WHO PUTS RATINGS ABOVE ETHICS AND DECENCY FOR EVEN CONSIDERING HAVING OJ. WHAT A PIG. I AM SICK OF THE SIGHT AND SOUND OF HIM AND WISH HE WOULD JUST GO AWAY FOREVER.
