Hot-dogging Celebrity Apprentices
Hot-dogging Celebrity Apprentices by Roxanne McDonald

A hot dog is just a hot dog…, unless you buy it from a star. $5,000 a dog; mustard is extra. |
Remember how in one particular street-hawking challenge one season, a more tendentious (and cocky) contestant tried to sell, oh, I don’t know, ice cream, for a thousand bucks?
Nothing came of it, but nothing against the rules there, evidently, either.
But how about when the task is to sell wieners and you who are committed to the challenge are a super-celebrity? Is it fair to call on wealthy fellows and try to get a celebrity price for a skin tube of ground-up guts and ear flaps?
According to Celebrity Spider, the celebrities’ first team task of vending hot dogs on the New York streets will yield efforts to take advantage of rich contacts and to solicit for 5 or 10k per dog. Somebody evokes the attention of New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Somebody else tries for eliciting support from David Wright of the New York Mets.
Celebrity Apprentices to Give Some Back
Celebrity Apprentices to Give Some Back by Roxanne McDonald

If they can settle on a premiere date, and if they can keep from killin’ each other with coo-coo, “Celebrity Apprentice” should be a hoot as well as a worthwhile endeavor to give something back to a universe that has given these celebs so much. |
In a “Surreal Life” meets “My Big Fat Stupid Boss” kind of charity coup, fourteen exceptional (or exceptionally infamous) business professionals in their own right, aside
from their talented reputations, will go for the challenges that have for five years (or six seasons, actually) had a specialized emphasis on succeeding with the nuances of entrepreneurship.
The rock legend with the nine-inch member (tongue, that is) will compete with a cosmetic makeover queen; the honey of television’s “Taxi”, a beauty turned health guru, will go head to head with an Ultimate Fighting Champ; a celebreality whore will battle wits with the most infamous of former “Apprentice” cheats.
A motley crew that would otherwise only appear on a list of who-would-you-want-to-inhabit-a-new-island or at an eclectic gathering like the Academy Awards, the group will substitute for “real” (non-celebrity) men and women such as former winners Sean, Randall, Kendra, Kelly, and Bill, and will participate in “business-driven” tasks that will ultimately “raise money and awareness for their respective causes.”
