Donald Trump
As Donald Trump continues his battle with billionaire Carl Icahn over control of the three Trump properties in town, he made an announcement about something he does have control over, his reality TV series Celebrity Apprentice. Trump has announced that the show returns March 14 on NBC. The list of celebrities includes several reality TV veterans (Bret Michaels, Sharon Osbourne, Holly Robinson Peete) as well as baseball great Darryl Strawberry, Cyndi Lauper, American track star Michael Johnson, pro wrestlers Goldberg and Maria Kanellis, comedians Carol Leifer and Sinbad, Olympic gold-medal swimmer Summer Sanders, ex-Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, celebrity chef Curtis Stone and Victoria’s Secret model Selita Ebanks.
Rod Blagojevich
Celebrity Apprentice contestants are all competing for a personal charity of their choosing. Trump has predicted that Blagojevich will be the breakout star this season. It’s nice to know that the disgraced former governor has something to do before his trial June 3 for his alleged scheme to auction off Barack Obama’s vacated Illinois senate seat to the highest bidder.
