Donald Trump has finally unveiled the list of celebrities who will compete for their favorite charities when the NBC reality show Celebrity Apprentice airs on January 3. Word of caution – if you’re looking for a star studded cast you will be disappointed.
The fourteen chosen to compete in season seven have some notoriety but not on any grand scale. According to Trump, they all have experience in business and they have all done something dramatic with money. Trump will rely on Ivanka and Donald Trump Jr. to assist him during each celebrity task and also in the boardroom.
Omarosa, the nasty woman from season one is back. Others include Vincent Pastori from the Sopranos, Stephen Baldwin, Gene Simmons of Kiss fame, Marilu Henner of Taxi, actress and model Carol Alt and country star Trace Adkins.
Rounding out the fourteen are a gymnast, a Playboy playmate, a former executive producer turned life coach, an Olympic softball gold metalist, a heavyweight boxing champ, and a reality show judge.
The contestants will be competing against each other on weekly tasks designed to raise charity dollars and the biggest slacker will be shipped home at the end of each week. Contestants will try to hang on until the last show in order to win the grand prize of $250,000 for their chosen charity.
