【Sister】

It wasn't too long ago that a Donald Trump presidency appeared,Sister to many, simply not possible.

Now another seemingly impossible, or at least strange, event is also a reality: On Tuesday, 2000s reality TV villain Omarosa Manigault was said to be joining the White House staff of incoming President Trump, according to sources who spoke with the Associated Press. An official announcement on Wednesday tweeted by multiple reporters appeared to confirm the hire. (Our message to the Trump transition team was not immediately returned.)

Manigault's official title is listed as assistant to the president and director of communications for the office of public liaison, the position currently held by Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett.

Manigault has taught at the Howard University School of Business and worked as a political commentator for CNN. And while she's probably best known for being the entrepreneur everyone loved to hate on The Apprentice back in 2004, she does have political experience.

Aside from being the director of African-American relations for the Trump campaign, Omarosa has worked on the left side of the political aisle. Before her reality TV days -- which included stints on VH1's The Surreal Lifeand Oxygen's Girls Behaving Badly-- she worked in the office of former Vice President Al Gore under the Clinton Administration.

She was fired from four jobs in two years with the Clinton Administration, according to a report from Peoplemagazine back in 2004.

At her last White House job, “she was asked to leave as quickly as possible, she was so disruptive,” Cheryl Shavers, the former Under Secretary for Technology at the Commerce Department, where Omarosa worked for several weeks in 2000, told People. Manigault has described her past political work as doing “logistics and advance and event planning for the White House under the Gore staff.”

And when it comes to what she's known for outside of politics, the list is nothing short of eclectic. For one, Lil Jon was basically her personal bouncer when things got too heated on the set of All-Star Celebrity Apprentice.

"I fight with everybody," she told reporters back in 2013. "Lil Jon had to break up all the fights between me and crazy-ass LaToya Jackson."

Although a proud Trump booster, Manigault was apparently skeptical of electing him as U.S. president as recently as the fall of 2015, when she told CNN he just didn't have her vote yet. More recently, she's doubled down on the Trump loyalty, giving staunch statements of support that can be as brash as her mentor's.

"Every critic, every detractor, will have to bow down to President Trump," she said during an interview for a PBS Frontlinedocumentary.

"It is the ultimate revenge to become the most powerful man in the universe."
