''The Celebrity Apprentice'' was linked in seasons to its precursor TV show, ''The Apprentice'', which consisted of seasons one to six and season ten. ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' consists of seasons seven to nine and eleven to fifteen.

Format

The format of ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' followed that of the original ''The Apprentice'', outside of housing arrangements; there was no communal living space, and celebrities were not required to live in the city during filming, allowing them to maintain their own appearance schedule which may have caused them to miss out on tasks at times. The two teams were given separate suites near the boardroom which they can use for planning and other activities related to the tasks. Additionally, the celebrities as contestants were not vying for a job, but instead each had selected a charity for which they were playing. The winner of each season got a large donation made to that charity by the host, but in addition, winning project managers may also have received 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 made on the task. The host also had 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 Arnold Schwarzenegger would become the new host of ''The Celebrity Apprentice'' to premiere during the 2016–17 television season.
