Another famous personality has joined The Apprentice: Celebrity Edition.  Tiffany Fallon, popularly known as the wife of Joe Rooney of the country singing group Rascal Flatts and Playboy's Playmate of the Year for 2005, has been added to the cast of the Donald Trump's reality series that will be premiering on January 16, 2008.

Broadcast on NBC, The Apprentice features contestants with various backgrounds as they contend in an elimination-style competition to become an apprentice of Trump.  As reported previously, some of the names of the participants who will be joining the program's celebrity edition have already surfaced.  These include former Apprentice contestant Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, former heavyweight boxing champion Lennox Lewis, Gene Simmons, founder of Kiss and star of Gene Simmons Family Jewels, UFC's Tito Ortiz, actor Stephen Baldwin, Vincent Pastore of The Sopranos, supermodel Carol Alt, actress Marilu Henner and WWE wrestler John Cena.

Fallon, the latest name to surface the news, has also worked on several television shows, besides her Playboy endeavors.  The 33-year-old celebrity has also made appearances on CSI: Miami, The Girls Next Door, and The Lance Krall Show.

According to TV Guide, contestants on the upcoming season of The Apprentice were recently spotted behind two Sabrett hot-dog carts in midtown Manhattan to tape a challenge for the reality show.  Led by America's Got Talent judge Piers Morgan on the megaphone, the celebrities attempted to stop curious passersby for a donation to charity and an authentic New York street hot dog.  At another location, some of the female contestants, including Omarosa, Henner and Fallon, were manning their own cart.

The largest donations of the day reportedly came when $5,000 and $10,000 checks were presented to the congenial celebrities by passing businessmen.

"Donald is going to be very proud of us," Morgan said as he kissed a $5,000 check.
