''The Celebrity Apprentice'' is linked in seasons to its precursor TV show, ''The Apprentice'', which consists of seasons 1–6 and season 10. ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' consists of seasons 7–9 and 11–15.


Format

The format of ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' follows that of the original ''The Apprentice'', outside of housing arrangements; there is no communal living space, and celebrities are not required to live in the city during filming, allowing them to maintain their own appearance schedule, which may cause them to miss out on tasks at times. The two teams are given separate suites near the boardroom which they can use for planning and other activities related to the tasks. Additionally, the celebrities as contestants are not vying for a job, but instead each selects a charity for which they are playing. The winner of each season gets a large donation made to that charity by the host, but in addition, winning project managers may also receive additional charity money by winning a task, either as a fixed amount set by the host and/or a participating business, or by the total charitable take they make on the task. The host also has discretion to provide charity funds to eliminated celebrities as a consolation prize.


History

On July 6, 2007, it was announced that ''The Apprentice'' had been renewed for a seventh season, with a possibility of an eighth. In an effort to revitalize interest in the series, season seven featured celebrities playing the game to raise money for charities, going under the name ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' as opposed to continuing under ''The Apprentice'' format.

in the 2016 election in 2015, NBC began to re-evaluate their business relationship with Trump and whether he could still be host of ''The Apprentice'' series. NBC stated that they opted to sever their business ties with Trump following "derogatory statements by Donald Trump regarding immigrants" in June 2015, and began seeking a new host for the show. However, Trump stated that it was his decision to end the relationship with NBC "out of respect", even though he had been approached by Burnett and NBC to host two more seasons of the show just prior to his presidential bid. In an April 2016 interview, Trump revealed he earned about $213 million from the show over its 14 seasons. In September 2015, NBC announced that actor and politician

would become the new host of ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' to premiere during the 2016–17 television season. The rebooted series, '' The New Celebrity Apprentice'' first broadcast on January 2, 2017. Trump remained credited as an Executive Producer to the show, including what was estimated as a five-figure per-show fee as well as ongoing profits from the franchise through MGM, the production entity for the show. On March 3, 2017, NBC announced that Arnold Schwarzenegger had stepped down as host of ''The Celebrity Apprentice''. Schwarzenegger cited poor ratings as well as his feud with President Trump as factors in his decision.
