Rachel Uchitel claims Donald Trump once pranked her at a party at Mar-a-Lago because he was seemingly bitter over her turning down an invitation to appear on “The Apprentice.”
“He hired someone that was a Tiger Woods impersonator to walk around the room, and try and get a photo with me,” the host claims in a sneak peek of her upcoming “Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel” podcast episode exclusively obtained by Page Six.
She adds of the bad joke, “I mean, how dumb, like, we’re talking about someone in, like, eighth grade.”

Uchitel claims it was at that point that the real estate mogul offered her a spot on a season of “The Apprentice,” but she ultimately turned it down because she “felt like it was a bad idea.”
“I backed out and instead I went on ‘Celebrity Rehab’ because I felt a connection with Dr. Drew,” the former TV correspondent shares.
The rejection allegedly left Trump with a bad taste in his mouth because Uchitel claims the former president told press he didn’t “even know” her or had ever spoken to her.
“What an asshole. It was because I chose someone else over him,” the podcaster miffs.
Uchitel points out, however, that Trump allegedly then called her to “apologize” and invite her to his New Year’s Eve dinner at Mar-a-Lago, which is where he tried to get the last laugh with his impersonator prank.
The famed politician is no stranger to trying to make a fool of other public figures.
He’s been involved in a years-long feud with Rosie O’Donnell in the past, calling the comedian names like “crude, rude, obnoxious and dumb” in the media.
Most recently, Trump blasted Jimmy Kimmel during his live broadcast of the Oscars over his hosting stint.
“Has there EVER been a WORSE HOST than Jimmy Kimmel at The Oscars,” the reality star wrote on Truth Social earlier this month.
His opening was that of a less than average person trying too hard to be something which he is not, and never can be.”
Trump added at the time that Kimmel, 56, was “another washed up, but cheap, ABC ‘talent,’” and proceeded to throw George Stephanopoulos under the bus by saying he should host instead because he “would make everybody on stage look bigger, stronger, and more glamorous.”
However, it appears that while Trump can dish it, he may not be so comfortable taking it.

When a social media user recently called out the former reality star for seemingly snubbing his grandson at a UFC match, his rep slammed the person to Page Six as “some sad, basement dwelling internet troll who is suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome.”
Trump’s rep did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Uchitel’s remarks.
New episodes of “Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel” are released every Monday and Thursday night.
