When Jesse took charge of the marketing for the men’s group this week on Celebrity Apprentice, the task was to advertise a video phone. The men’s team decided to make a commercial showing the phone being used by a gal talking to her boyfriend who is stationed in Iraq. So Jesse called Anne Lindfjeld, longtime Chopperdog and Chopper Hottie, and model to help out on the shoot.
We asked Anne to give us the 411 on how she originally got mixed up with WCC, and also the backstory on her gig on the set of Celebrity Apprentice…”So I did my first shoot for Chopperdogs back in early 2006. I had been to LA once on a 3 month backpacking trip 2 years before, and was thrilled about going back, and had been hitting up companies and photographers about shoots, including Shannon Brooke. She asked me if I’d be up for shooting for the website and for the 2008 calendar. I was stoked after having watched Jesse on Monster Garage and Motorcycle Mania on TV. This was a pretty cool deal for me.
When I joined Chopperdogs I started talking to people, and found that is was like having a second family. This was also how I got to know Jesse like a lot of the other dogs. We’ve become friends over the years, and I came back and shot for Chopperdogs and the 2009 calendar during my yearly trip to LA.
The Apprentice thing happened when I was hanging out with my then boyfriend in NYC, and Jesse called me up and told me that he needed someone to do a small acting part in some TV thing he had going on. He couldn’t tell me what it was about or what I would be doing. I was just given an address, and showed up to support him and be a friend by helping out. So I got there and still didn’t know what the hell was going on, and all of a sudden they told me to go into a room filled with all the apprentices, and a camera crew was there….I didn’t know I would be on TV so I hadn’t done any hair or make up or anything! And I still didn’t know that I was now ON the show or what show it was ‘till I sat down and looked at some papers saying Donald Trump (in gold of course). Then I figured out what was going on. From there I was just hanging out ‘till my part was up which was hours later…. fun experience…my first time ever speaking English on TV. I never saw any of it so I have no idea if I look or sound like a complete jackass… but it was fun, great crew, fun people and different ‘job.’
I don’t live in NYC, or in the states full time…I’m currently a gypsy just traveling around with my suitcase, crashing on couches and air mattresses trying to find a good job, but I do spend most of my time in LA.” Check out what Anne does when she’s not looking for couches to crash on…
thanks for the heads up. it’s been fixed.
