Nigerian-American,Omarosa is joining Donald Trump in the White House to Focus on Public Engagement.


Donald Trump’s director of African-American outreach, Omarosa Manigault, has landed her second job in the White House. 

The AP reports that Omarosa has been hired for a position that will focus on public engagement.

Donald Trump once fired Omarosa Manigault from “The Apprentice,” but is now reportedly hiring her for a job in the White House.

The Associated Press on Tuesday reported that the onetime reality-TV contestant will take a public-engagement position in the Trump administration. Manigault was a vocal Trump supporter during the presidential campaign, and served as Trump’s African-American outreach director. She’s currently part of Trump’s transition team.

It won’t be her first White House job: Manigault previously had a spot in Vice President Al Gore’s office during the Clinton administration. She also won’t be the first celebrity to work at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave: actor Kal Penn held a similar public-engagement position under President Barack Obama.

When she appeared on the first season of “The Apprentice" in 2004, Manigault was painted as a villain, notorious for her cut-throat attitude and blindsiding tactics. She’s no stranger to blunt talk in real life either, telling PBS’s “Frontline” in September that “every critic, every detractor will have to bow down to President Trump. . . . It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe.”
