Default Boy George signs up for the Celebrity Apprentice
Amongst Snooki and... other people

Quote:
Arnold is replacing Donald, and the action will shift to Los Angeles, where NBC Thursday unveiled the 16 contestants competing for boardroom supremacy in NBC's Celebrity Apprentice.

The lineup, as usual, features the semi-famous and the formerly famous athletes, actors and reality-TV stars, vying in business-themed challenges and avoiding getting "fired" to support their favorite charity. The big difference: Actor and former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is replacing Donald Trump as host and boss of the boardroom, after NBC fired him when he began his presidential campaign. Only once has a non-Trump hosted the series, in a low-rated season headed by Martha Stewart.

And a panel of "advisers" will include investor Warren E. Buffett, former Microsoft chief Steve Ballmer, Tyra Banks, Jessica Alba and lawyer Patrick knapp Schwarzenegger, Arnold's nephew. The show will begin production shortly. An airdate has not been scheduled, but it is expected as early as this fall.

The contestants:

Laila Ali, retired boxing champ and daughter of Muhammad Ali
Brooke Burke-Charvet, actress/host and CEO of ModernMom.com
Eric Dickerson, former NFL running back
Boy George, musician and coach of U.K.'s The Voice
Matt Iseman, co-host of NBC's American Ninja Warrior
Carrie Keagan, former VH1 talk-show host
Carson Kressley, TV host and fashion expert
Lisa Leslie, Olympic medalist and WNBA star
Jon Lovitz, comedian and actor
Vince Neil, lead singer for Motley Crue
Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Jersey Shore star
Kyle Richards, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star
Chael Sonnen, mixed-marrtial arts
Porsha Williams, Real Housewives of Atlanta star
Ricky Williams, ESPN analyst and former NFL player
Carnie Wilson, singer and former talk-show host

Only know Jon and Carson (aside from the two you mention)... I've heard of a Porsha but I may be thinking of a Bulgarian dish

The cast looks to be boring this year.

I was kinda hoping for a WWE legend or superstar to be a part of the cast.

I've only heard of Boy George, Snooki and Carnie Wilson but I'll definitely watch.

And sort of Kyle Richards, I saw a video of some drama from her Real Housewives show relatively recently.

I also kinda/do know of Laila, Carson, Brooke and Lisa, the latter of which thanks to a Brant Steele Survivor simulation which finally proves that those things are actually useful

Not a cast worth of "hurrah chants" that´s for sure.

I guess i have to go with Jon Lovitz as a pre-show favorite.

that they have yet again gone for the Sadwives of whatever -stars for drama bringing.

I know a good chunk of the cast this year at least, despite not being awesome on paper.

Really excited for Matt Iseman to be honest despite the rest of the cast, he's a comedian and is the PBP for American Ninja Warrior and does a great job at it.
