This season's lineup for Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice has finally been announced, and while the roster is always a bit...underwhelming, calling this group "celebrities" is really a stretch, even for the Donald. How many of these names do you recognize?
The 18 celebrities, who will be "subject to long hours, grueling deadlines, intellectual challenges, personality clashes, and intense scrutiny," are Arsenio Hall, Clay Aiken, Adam Carolla, Lou Ferrigno, Penn Jillette, Dee Snider, George Takei, Michael Andretti, Paul Teutul, Sr., Cheryl Tiegs, Debbie Gibson, Tia Carrere, Victoria Gotti, Lisa Lampanelli, Dayana Mendoza, Aubrey O’Day, Patricia Velásquez, and Teresa Giudice.
So, let's see...what do we have here? A washed-up former teen star, a Twisted Sister, a table-flipping reality star with a terrifying hairline, an Incredible Hulk, and a few more half-assed "celebrities" who've been rotting away in obscurity for the past few years. But the Donald is unfazed! “I think we have a great, very diverse cast,” said Trump, calling them "tough and smart." Never mind that ratings have been down for the series—we'll tune in if it keeps Trump on the teevee machine and out of our ballots.
