All that hype about “Celebrity Apprentice,” and now they went and delayed the debut date! “Celebrity Apprentice” was set to start January 3, but has been bumped to January 10 for the start date.
OK, so it’s only a week, but you’ll need to adjust your calendar if you were eagerly awaiting the celebrity edition to begin. It’s likely that the bump is due to the last original airing of “Grey’s Anatomy” that was completed prior to the writers’ strike… that or the Orange Bowl, which also airs January 3. Overall, not a great night for “Celebrity Apprentice” to get started.
If nothing else, the upcoming debut of “The Celebrity Apprentice” on January 3 is a good diversion from the typical “Apprentice” setup. But how does “boss” Donald Trump feel about the upcoming edition?
According to Donald Trump, firing celebrity apprentices is a challenge: “In some cases in particular, I had a hard time firing some of these people because I’ve known them, not necessarily personally, but I’ve known their achievements. Possibly firing Olympic gold medalists… people that I’ve watched… is certainly not an easy thing.”
Trump also commented, “There’s some unbelievable hatred among the [players], beyond anything in Apprentice 1 or 2. You wouldn’t believe it.”
