Jesse James part of new Celebrity Apprentice

I think The Donald is going to have his hands full in the boardroom this season. The cast of the next season of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice was recently announced and among them is none other than Mr. Jesse James. (I suppose when you have a new show coming out around the same time, a little extra publicity can’t hurt right?)

Joining Jesse on the show are: Clint Black, Andrew Dice Clay, Annie Duke, Tom Green, Natalie Gulbis, Scott Hamilton,  Claudia Jordan, Khloe Kardashian, Brian McKnight, Joan Rivers, Melissa Rivers, Brande Roderick, Dennis Rodman, Herschel Walker and Tionne Watkins. I know, I haven’t heard of half of these people either, but with the Dice Man, Tom Green and Jesse-I gotta think things will get pretty interesting.

Here’s Jesse’s bio for the show:
JESSE JAMES can be called many things: custom bike and car builder, producer, publisher, television host and restaurateur. James is currently in production for his new show “Jesse James Is A Dead Man” which will premiere on Spike TV. This past summer, James hit the road and toured across the United States to talk to the American worker one-on-one to launch his new clothing line Jesse James Industrial Work Wear, which is currently available in Wal-Mart stores nationwide. James also founded West Coast Choppers, which creates custom made motorcycles. In 2000, James was the subject of “Motorcycle Mania” which chronicled his everyday life as a motorcycle builder on the Discovery Channel. James established a loyal following who would tune in for 85 episodes to watch the anti-host in his best known role on the international television hit “Monster Garage,” which he produced and starred in. In 2006, he opened the restaurant Cisco Burger, named after his beloved pit bull Cisco. James will be playing for the charity, “Long Beach Education Foundation.”

I have never been a huge fan of The Apprentice, but my husband is and I confess that I watched Celebrity Apprentice last season and enjoyed it. So, if you’re curious like me and wondering how long Jesse will last in the board room (and if he can bring himself to wear a shirt and tie every day), then let your morbid curiosity get the best of you and tune in on Sunday, March 1 at 9pm (EST).

    Heh, I guess it DOES appear to be a love affair doesn’t it? I can’t help it if he just happens to be news-worthy lately.

    And, uh, my husband IS aware of my, err, appreciation of Mr. James and a Mr. Mitchell! You guys get the booty girls wearing only thongs and chaps. We ladies get the cute, bad-boy bike builders!

    I have to confess…I did kinda enjoy the last Celebrity Apprentice. This one could be interesting with that line-up. I’ll have to check it out.
