Thursday, January 3 is the premiere of CELEBRITY APPRENTICE!! I think this is going to be "must-see" tv. I watched the first few seasons of the Apprentice and really enjoyed them but after that they really started to lose their appeal. But this is one I'm not going to miss...well, I'll give it a shot anyway! The end result of this one is not a job with Trump, it's to raise money for their favourite charities.
Check out the list of candidates...Omarosa, Gene Simmons...I can't wait until they get into it!
