Piers Morgan claims that reality star Omarosa Manigault Newman offered her sex in order to win Celebrity Apprentice and then called him a gay slur when he turned her down.
The former America’s Got Talent judge wrote a column for Daily Mail in which he detailed how she allegedly propositioned him during their season of the show.
“Omarosa sidled up to me at the New York Mercantile Exchange and said, quite seriously: ‘Piers, do you want a showmance?’ ‘A what?’ I replied. ‘A showmance. You know, a romance on the show – we get it on together. Happens all the time on Apprentice. Everyone has sex together. Then we can make lots of money out of it,’” Piers wrote in the column.
He added, “I stared at her grasping, ferociously ambitious little eyes, and laughed: ‘You must be joking, you deluded woman.’ She didn’t take it well. ‘What are you? Gay?’ From that moment, she turned on me like a viper.”
“I can honestly say I’ve never been spoken to in my life like the disgusting, foul-mouthed, homophobic way Omarosa spat at me throughout the weeks of filming. Because I’d rejected her revolting sex plot, she decided the best line of attack was to repeatedly question my sexuality in the most crude and offensive manner imaginable,” he continued.
Piers claims that Omarosa used gay slurs to describe him and even told Trump, “I think Piers is in the closet.”
“None of these things was true,” he wrote. “I’m not gay and she hadn’t heard that about me. She’d just made it up to smear me and to provoke me into a confrontation.”
Omarosa is currently in the Celebrity Big Brother house so she won’t be able to respond until she is evicted.
