'She needs some serious f****** dermatology': Now it's revealed how Trump insulted the appearance of country singer on The Apprentice after 'p****' scandal

  • Singer Emily West appeared on an episode of The Apprentice in 2010
  • Transcript of behind-the-scenes conversation was published on Monday
  • Donald Trump kept bashing West's appearance and specifically her skin
  • Cyndi Lauper, also in that episode, confirmed he had made the comments
  • Apprentice creator Mark Burnett claims he can't legally release extra tapes

Donald Trump repeatedly insulted a female country singer's appearance when she starred on The Apprentice, a conversation transcript shows.

Emily West appeared in 2010 in an episode of the show titled 'Beauty And Brains', which had contestants make over one of two aspiring country musicians. One was West and the other was Luke Bryan.

Trump fixated on West's physical appearance, specifically on the quality of her skin, during the taping, according to a transcript of a behind-the-scene exchange unveiled by the Huffington Post Monday.

The disrespectful comments, which include Trump saying West needs 'some serious f****n' dermatology', pale in comparison to the GOP nominee's remarks caught in a 2005 video. He said stars can do anything to women, including grabbing them 'by the p***y'.

The transcript published by the Huffington Post, however, add to a record of demeaning comments Trump has made about women.

Trump made insulting remarks about West during the boardroom session, while deciding which makeover had been the most successful - West's or Bryan's.

'I assume you're gonna leave this off, don't put this s**t on the show, you know. But her skin, her skin sucks, okay?' Trump said, according to the transcript.

'I mean her skin, she needs some serious f****n' dermatology.'

The conversation, according to the Huffington Post, lasted about three minutes. Trump brought up West's appearance repeatedly - and at one point compared her to Bryan.  

'Personally, I am, as you probably heard, not a gay man, but I think he's better looking that [sic] Emily okay?' Trump said.

Country music star Trace Adkins starred as a guest judge on the episode. Trump asked him what he thought of each makeover.  

'Well I um, I, I think the one they did for Emily is a little more polished looking,' Adkins said.

'You're obviously not a skin man,' Trump said.

West's team eventually won the episode.

She told the Huffington Post she had never met Trump while on the show and that their bits were filmed separately.

Singer Cyndi Lauper, who appeared on the episode as the leader of the team responsible for West's makeover, told the Huffington Post the transcript was accurate. 

'Yes, of course [he said that],' Lauper said. 'Of all people to talk about people's skin! What the hell is going on with his?'

She further bashed the Republican nominee, saying he had walked behind Hillary Clinton 'like a thug' during Sunday night's presidential debate.  

'He's a reality star and he has low-lifed our entire political system that is so 1800 gangs of New York,' Lauper said.

A Trump spokeswoman told the Huffington Post his campaign couldn't comment on an 'alleged transcript'.

Meanwhile pressure has mounted on MGM and The Apprentice creator Mark Burnett to released unaired tapes of the show featuring Trump.

Producer Chris Nee, who didn't work on The Apprentice, tweeted on Sunday that other producers and crew members had said Trump was caught on tape saying the N-word.

Nee, who also tweeted she had once signed a contract with Burnett including a $5 million leak fee, then deleted the tweet.

The Huffington Post reported Monday that a copy of an agreement confirmed the existence of a $5 million for disclosing information.

Burnett is the president of MGM Television, a division of MGM. MGM owns the rights to The Apprentice. 

Bill Pruitt, a producer who worked on two seasons of The Apprentice, tweeted Sunday that 'far worse' tapes of Trump exist.

But Burnett said in a statement to CNN's Brian Selter Monday that he wasn't legally allowed to release any footage.

'MGM owns Mark Burnett's production company and The Apprentice is one of its properties,' the statement, signed by Burnett and MGM, reads.

'Despite reports to the contrary, Mark Burnett does not have the ability nor the right to release footage or other material from The Apprentice.

'Various contractual and legal requirements also restrict MGM's ability to release such material.

'The recent claims that Mark Burnett has threatened anyone with litigation if they were to leak such material are completely and unequivocally false.'

The statement also claimed Burnett had 'consistently supported Democratic campaigns'.

However a source told BuzzFeed Saturday that Burnett was 'pro-Trump' and had 'made clear to his teams that he will sue anyone who leaks'. 

Cast and crew members told the Associated Press last week that Trump repeatedly demeaned women with sexist language on The Apprentice.

They said the GOP nominee rated female contestants by the size of their breasts and talked about which ones he'd like to have sex with.
