The Celebrity Apprentice 2: Premiere Recap (Page 1/2)

Donald Trump is doing another season of The Celebrity Apprentice simply because he wants all those “dollars out there” to go to the people that need it: charities. Right. This season looks like it'll be ridiculous. The men's team consists of Herschel Walker, Andrew Dice Clay, Brian McKnight, Tom Green, Dennis Rodman, Clint Black, Scott Hamilton, Jesse James. The women's team has Annie Duke, Natalie Gulbis, Melissa Rivers, Brande Roderick, Khloe Kardashian, T-Boz, Claudia Jordan, and Joan Rivers. They're all playing for their respective charities.

The season begins when Donald Trump's helicopter lands on the USS Intrepid. Last season the charity that won was the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund. He introduces each of the contestants, informs them that they'll be split into two teams: the men vs. the women, and then sends him on their way to Trump Tower.


The women discuss who will be project manager first. Joan Rivers volunteers because she's the only one in there without a “tampon in her pocketbook.” They decide on a team name: Athena because she's the goddess of war.

The men are just complaining that there's no food in their loft. Specifically, Andrew Dice Clay is upset there's no coffee or bagels. Scott Hamilton offers to be the secretary, which is probably not a good first move. The men point to Herschel Walker for the project manager and Dennis Rodman is not happy about it. They pick KOTU as their team name, which stands for “Kings of the Universe.”

In the boardroom, Donald Trump asks the men who their project manger is and Herschel explains he wanted “the ball.” The women all point to Joan as soon as Trump looks towards them. He explains they will be selling cupcakes for their first challenge.

The men start to fall apart when they announce their team name. Jesse and Dennis admit they hated the name. The women seem much more put together when they announce Team Athena. Donald Trump tells the men he notices unrest and Andrew Dice Clay blames Donald Trump for not providing coffee and bagels. The room goes silent. After a while, Donald Trump chooses to ignore him and tells them that Don will be going with the woman and Ivanka will be going with the men. He tells them that Ivanka “knows men,” which sort of implies she's a slut. That's weird.

In the planning stage, the men decide that Andrew Dice Clay can stand out and draw big groups of people. I'm not convinced this is good plan.

The women get into a bit of an argument. Joan thinks they should go to Penn Station but Annie thinks it'd be a bad idea because they did it last season and it didn't work. Brande Roderick offers up the playboy building and the women are in agreement. Annie claims she can bring in $15,000 herself. Most of the women are annoyed with Annie, especially Khloe Kardashian, who claims they are all adults (hehe). The men decide to pimp out their cupcake truck. Or rather, have Jesse James pimp out their truck.

The men call up any and all contacts they have on the way to the Institute of Culinary Education. Tom Green gets Donnie Deutch. I have no idea who that is, but evidently he has money. When they get there, Andrew Dice Clay starts complaining about the aprons. Jesse James starts taking photos for the truck and the men are on their way.

The women arrive at the institute and Natalie, Khloe, Annie, and T-Boz go to make the cupcakes. Joan, Melissa, Claudia, and Brande are decorating the truck outside and making fliers. Brian McKnight and Jesse James start making “Celebrity Cupcake Star Galactica” for the men.
