“The Apprentice” will happen again, but this time it will have a twist. This time celebrities will be the contestants. Here’s the story from AOL News:

Celebs to Compete on Revived ‘Apprentice’

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. (July 16) - Check your publicist at the boardroom door - NBC is inviting celebrities to try to wow Donald Trump in the next version of “The Apprentice.”

And while it would make for a marquee matchup, don’t expect Rosie O’Donnell to be among them

It will never happen in this lifetime or beyond,” said Cindi Berger, O’Donnell’s spokeswoman.

The network announced Monday that the game show will be back in the middle of next season with the celebrity twist, the winner donating proceeds to charity instead of going to work for The Donald.

NBC had canceled “The Apprentice” due to low ratings when it announced its next season schedule in May. But the network hired Ben Silverman as its new entertainment chief shortly thereafter, and he called on Trump and executive producer Mark Burnett to revive the show.

No contestants were named in NBC’s announcement. The network said it was looking for people with entreprenurial abilities in the areas of sports, entertainment and fashion.

Which, of course, raised the question of O’Donnell, Trump’s nemesis, maybe getting involved.

“It would be great to have Rosie on `The Apprentice,”‘ Silverman said at a morning Television Critics Association news conference. “Donald personally told me to extend an invitation to her.”

NBC entertainment co-chairman Marc Graboff echoed Silverman’s comment, saying “we’d love her” to be on the show.

O’Donnell’s spokeswoman, however, quickly put a freeze on the idea. She did confirm, though, that the former talk host and “The View” panelist was in talks with NBC about other projects.

What celebrities would add a little spice or interest to the show? Here’s my choice of a lineup:

Jessica Simpson - the Chicken of the Sea perspective
Nicole Richey - the anorexic look
George Clooney - the cool-for-the-cameras perspective
Chris Rock - some edginess
Elizabeth Hasselbeck - some common sense
Jack Nicholson - the “I-don’t-give-a-shit” perspective
Angelina Jolie - the ho/madonna perspective
Kim Cattrall - party girl view
Matthew McConaughey - gotta have one hunk in there
Sanjaya Malakar - comic relief - plus he’d be required to have a different hairdo every day

I never understood the whole tattoo thing. I change my hair color and style on a regular basis because I get tired of it. What happens when you get tired of the tattoo? That’s what I don’t understand. It’s PERMANENT.

Obviously, I’m the odd person out with that way of thinking.

The worst is getting your current lovers name tattooed on your body. WHAT ARE PEOPLE THINKING! Well, when the loves gone, the name is still permanently embedded in your skin. I have a sneaking feeling any new lovers will not like that one little bit. Not to mention, every time you see the tattoo it will remind you of the *mistake*!!!

Here are how a few celebrities have dealt with the problem.

Pamela Anderson’s ‘Tommy’ tattoo became ‘Mommy’. That was an easy one to solve. I wonder if she’ll have it changed back now that there are rumors they are reuniting.

Johnny Depp’s tattoo for Winona Ryder, ‘Winona Forever’ was transformed to ‘Wino Forever’. Then he changed it altogether to ‘Betty Sue’, his mother’s name.

Carmen Electra had her wedding date to David Navarro tattooed on her wrist, she’s just changing dates.

David Navarro had his wedding date to Carmen Electra tattooed to his chest. He’s leaving it saying it’s a part of his history.

Angelina Jolie had Billy Bob Thornton scrubbed off and replaced him with the birthplaces of her children. I wonder what she did with the vial of his blood?

Saturday night Lindsay Lohan is photographed partying at Pure Nightclub in Las Vegas.

People Magazine has an exclusive interview with Lindsay Lohan’s rep, Leslie Sloane. Sloane commented on Lohan’s successful six weeks treatment at Promises.

“On Friday, July 13, 2007, Lindsay Lohan successfully completed her 45 days of residential and extended care treatment at Promises. She has transitioned to an intensive outpatient program, which includes attendance at daily AA meetings, outpatient therapy and daily testing. On her own, she has also made the decision in support of her sobriety to wear an alcohol monitoring bracelet. In part she is wearing the bracelet so there are no questions about her sobriety if she chooses to go dancing or dining in a place where alcohol is served.”

On Saturday night, Lindsay and some friends went partying at Pure Nightclub in Las Vegas. Lindsay drank an energy drink seemed to enjoy her night out of Rehab.

You can see her new ankle+bracelet accessory in this photo:

***Bling****Bling***

Lindsay was looking rough before rehab. She definitely looks healthier and more clear eyed in these photos. I hope she makes it.

KYTX-TV, a Tyler, Texas CBS affiliate has come up with an inventive way to increase their ratings. They are doing a reality TV show that deals with turning a bikini model into an anchorwoman. The show, entitled ‘Anchorwoman’ oddly enough, will begin airing in late August.

The show will follow Lauren Jones’ every move as she learns the ropes and transforms from bikini model to news anchor. Whether or not it’s a successful transformation is the point of the show.

The station has come under attack for selling out and undermining the integrity of the news industry by using a beautiful woman with no journalism experience whatsoever to do the news. These attacks are made with straight faces too. As if beautiful people (male and female) reading news is an unheard of concept. A few examples. here, There’s even a list where you can vote on which news anchor you think is sexiest.

Suppose she ends up not only raising the ratings of KYTX-TV but doing a good job of reading the teleprompters. Even worse, what if she does just as good or better a job of it as those who make millions for their reading teleprompter skills. OH MY!

That is what they are really afraid of.

Lauren Jones is an actress and magazine cover model. Jones, a Miss New York USA beauty queen finalist, Homecoming Queen and Cheerleader, appeared on the soap opera Guiding Light and in the June 2005 issue of Maxim magazine. Lauren has been seen in Fortune, Dubb, Sync, and Men’s Health magazines, as well as on the covers of Sound and Vision and extreme sports magazine, AXL. She also has appeared as a WWE Diva. She has also recently joined the sexy team of Barker’s Beauties on The Price is Right.

I have a feeling we’ll be seeing more of Lauren Jones.

Westley (Carey Elwes)

The charming Westley has shed his hose and princess pursuit for some more modern garb in the 20 years since he tumbled down the hill screaming “As you wish” to his precious Buttercup. Although he continued his comic flair in period satires in “Robinhood Man in Tights,” he’s since taken on more serious roles in “Georgia Rule” and the spine-tingling “Saw.”

According to TMZ.com, Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen are looking for interns for their clothing line. And since they are so very very rich, they will pay the interns . . . nothing. Nada. Zilch. That’s right. These young moguls want their interns to make a commitment for at least 2-3 months for absolutely no pay. No, that’s wrong - the interns ARE provided with a Metro card so they can ride the subway to and from work free. I’m awed at their generosity . . . not!

Here’s the story:

Britney Buys a New Dog
It really turned out to be a dog day afternoon for Britney Spears. The pop star and her bodyguard headed to Pets of Bel Air in the Glen Center in Bel Air on Friday – and left with a new puppy, a source tells PEOPLE.

An “excited” Spears walked into the store and right up to the dog section where she asked to see one dog in particular – a $3,000 Yorkie, says a fellow shopper. “She picked up the dog and loved it right away, she was incredibly nice and very pleasant.”

Pleasant and fast: The pop star gave the cashier her credit card and headed out with her new dog in hand after spending less than a half-hour in the store.

I don’t know. Brittney hasn’t shown the best of judgment as a mother to her two young sons. Does she really need yet another responsibility?
