Los Angeles - Joan Rivers, Tom Green and Jesse James are set to star in this year's Celebrity Apprentice.

They will reportedly be joined by Dennis Rodman, Khloe Kardashian, Claudia Jordan, Brian McKnight, Andrew Dice Clay, Tionee "T-Boz" Watkins, Herschel Walker, Melissa Rivers, Scott Hamilton, Annie Duke, Clint Black, Natalie Gulbis and Brande Roderick in Donald Trump's reality TV show.

Tom, who is divorced from actress Drew Barrymore, and Jesse, who is married to Sandra Bullock, have been approached thanks to their famous connections, according to a show insider.

"Everyone is hoping Tom and Jesse will both refer to Sandra and Drew at some point during the show," the source said.

Controversy

Joan, who was famously thrown off a live British TV show earlier this year after branding Russell Crowe a "fucking shit", is expected to provide the controversy in the business-based programme.

"Joan is always hilarious - she will be a breath of fresh air compared to some of the other people who have competed in the show," the source added.

The 75-year-old comedienne will also have to face the pressure of competing with her daughter Melissa on the programme. - Bang Showbiz.com
