The twelfth installment of the reality series The Apprentice franchise will feature eighteen celebrity contestants when Celebrity Apprentice 5 premieres in early 2012.
So far eight names have been revealed. They include Clay Aiken of American Idol fame, race car driver Marco Andretti, comedian and television host Adam Carolla and singer Debbie Gibson.
Others include Real Housewives of New Jersey reality star Teresa Giudice, Mafia crime boss’ daughter Victoria Gotti, former Danity Kane musician Aubrey O’Day, and model Cheryl Tiegs.
NBC locked in Celebrity Apprentice 5 in May, reportedly forcing Donald Trump to make a decision regarding a potential run for president. The real estate mogul announced he wouldn’t run on May 16, 2011.
We’ll add more photos as other names are made available.
