Shark Tank star Daymond John considers himself lucky to be sitting next to Barbara Corcoran, as they decide which fledgling businesses to invest in the ABC show, because he wouldn’t want to be pitching her an idea.

“I would think the toughest shark to impress is probably Barbara,” John tells Yahoo Entertainment. “She just says the things that… she’s like, ‘You know, I really like you. I like the product. But it looks like you’ve got gingivitis. And I can't have meetings with you often because your breath is going to stink. And I'm gonna realize that I’m not gonna want to be around this person because you got gingivitis. For that reason, I’m out.’”

In other words, she goes with her gut feeling when she and the other “sharks” — including Mark Cuban, Lori Greiner, Robert Herjavec and Kevin O’Leary — are deciding which companies to take on in the show, which begins its 12th season next month.

I think shark tank would be cooler if they made the contestants present their idea over an actual shark tank

Your title sounds like the title of a Buzzfeed “article”

Robert jumps on anything fun like a child watching a toy commercial.

Kevin goes after anything holiday, education, or stationary related or anything he can do a licensing deal on. Usually he’s looking for a product that will be easy to manufacture overseas.

Lori only gets involved with products she can sell on qvc.

Mark goes after really innovative technology companies for their patents or products he can sell through his NBA team.

Daymond goes after fashion and lifestyle companies to either get the rights to their proprietary technology for his clothing lines or prevent them from becoming competitors.

Barbara looks for brick and mortar store front franchises that can utilize her real estate empire.

They each have a niche.

I think I would bang Barb. Tight little body for her age and she seems cool.

Don't forget his interest in anything related to wine and booze or wedding related.

I forgot about the booze, but I assumed weddings and graduations were included in “holiday”. Doesn’t Mr. Wonderful have a winery and a distillery?

you left out the part about where he goes for things he can make money on. I love him cause he isn't sentimental and all SJW like some other sharks.

Scrub Daddy says hello. She sells those everywhere

WUT? He likes technology and products that appeal to young people. He only mentions the Mavs for food products. He loves smart women and goes easier on them then he does guys.

one of her first and biggest investments was in a food truck/lobster business.


Do you even watch this show?

Barbara is a classic, petty woman. Daymond is right.

Presenter could be offering a slam dunk investment that the other sharks fight over but Barbara hates the presenter's shoes so she gets out.

And it's the most successful product to ever be featured on that show.

Just went and watched what he offered the sharks. It was $700k for 10%. Had the sharks bit on it, they would have turned $700k to over $100 MILLION

It's 100% Barbara. She's cold-blooded and lets you know it.

they all whiffed on the wine too.


quote:

— -- Copa Di Vino founder James Martin isn’t bothered by the fact that the “sharks” of ABC's "Shark Tank" don’t have fond memories of his two infamous appearances on the hit entrepreneurial reality show.

That’s because, despite walking away from the sharks’ offers twice and being known as one of the sharks' most disliked inventors, Martin’s product is one of “Shark Tank’s” most successful
