An interesting article last season's contestant Carol Alt:
Carol Alt Talks Posing Nude For Playboy At 47: ‘I’ve Done A Lot Of Soul-Searching About This’
Legendary supermodel Carol Alt will bare it all for the first time in a Playboy cover story, Access Hollywood has confirmed.
The 47-year-old brunette beauty, who battled it out in the boardroom on Season 1 of Donald Trump’s “Celebrity Apprentice” earlier this year, will pose nude for the magazine’s December issue, a rep for the magazine told Access.
Alt, who credits adhering to a raw foods lifestyle for her physique, said she chose to do the shoot to spotlight the healthy eating program she has been a patron of for over a dozen years.
“I’ve done a lot of soul-searching about this and have spoken extensively with Playboy about it. They have been amazing to work with and are embracing this message that I want to get across, which is eat healthy, look healthy and be healthy,” Alt said in an article for her Web site. “It doesn’t matter what age you are. You can look sexy and feel great, and that doesn’t have to be a gift only for the young. It can be a gift for any age, even the old (whatever that is nowadays).”
The sexy forty-something rose to fame in the 1980s as a fashion model and later a Sports Illustrated cover star, but her Playboy appearance will be her first ever nude pictorial. And though she has been admired for her top shape for almost three decades, Alt said, those early men’s magazine shoots were difficult.
“I’ve never been comfortable with my body,” Carol said on her Web site. “When I had to pose for Sports Illustrated in a bathing suit at the age of 20, it was some of the most difficult work I ever did. I was always a heavy kid; my sister is a plus-size model; and it’s not like I come from a long line of stick figures! I continuously battled with my weight! I always felt uncomfortable with my body — was very shy and really, rather conservative.”
Alt, who has written several books on eating raw, said her food regime helped her achieve a body she was ready to show off.
“In reality, at my age, to know that I have come to such a point, where I am comfortable enough with my own body after 12 years of eating raw — that I actually feel better about my body at 47 than I did at 20 — is an amazing miracle in itself,” she said. “I want to enlighten other people to the fact that as they age, they don’t have to start feeling worse about themselves — getting tired, getting moody, getting fat and becoming ill. There is an alternative, but the only way for people to find it is to educate themselves. One way to get them to do that is to start them talking about it. The only way I know of to encourage that kind of discussion is to do something a little… controversial.”

Another cast list article:
The Celebrity Apprentice 2: Cast Revealed!
The Celebrity Apprentice 2 is currently filming in New York City. After the surprise success of the first season of Celebrity Apprentice, Donald Trump claimed that season 2 would be an even more star-studded affair. He lied to you. He lied to all of us. TV Guide Magazine spied on the filming of Celebrity Apprentice 2 last week, and have uncovered the cast list for the season. It is not full of famous people. In fact, there are less famous people on the new season then there were on the first. At this point, the professional dancers on Dancing with the Stars are probably more famous than the “celebrities” on The Celebrity Apprentice 2. The success of The Celebrity Apprentice last winter was in part due to the writers' strike. The series aired against little competition and thrived because of it. The show will have no such luck at mid-season this time around. Ratings success for Celebrity Apprentice 2 won't be easy, especially with the cast that NBC and Mr. Trump have assembled.
Here is the cast list for The Celebrity Apprentice 2 and the reasons why they might be considered famous:
Khloe Kardashian: She's famous for being the sister of someone who is famous for being the friend of someone who is famous for being a drunken tramp. Makes sense, right?
Claudia Jordan: A Deal or No Deal model. Really. That's why she's famous. Apparently she also has hosted some unpopular shows. Claudia is this season's Nely Galan.
Brande Roderick: Playboy/Baywatch kind of girl.
Joan Rivers: Is it sad that Joan is the most famous “celebrity” on the upcoming season? Yes. A thousand times yes. I'm excited to see the wonders of plastic surgery in glorious HD.
Melissa Rivers: Do you think Joan demanded that daughter Melissa was also cast on the show? Does Joan have that kind of clout?
Herschel Walker: Formerly awesome NFL running back. Now retired, possessor of a really cool name.
Brian McKnight: R&B singer who hit his prime in about 1996.
Scott Hamilton: Flamboyant gold-medal winning figure skater. Now a figure skating commentator. Member of the bald brotherhood.
Natalie Gulbis: LPGA golfer. This year's Jennie Finch. Attractive.
Annie Duke: Annie is a professional poker player, mother and brother of Howard Lederer, who is also a pro poker player.
Dennis Rodman: NBA rebounding legend, infamously sexually ambiguous, slayer of Madonna and Carmen Electra. Possibly broke.
Andrew Dice Clay: Star of The Adventures of Ford Fairlane. The 1980's version of Dane Cook, only dirtier.
Tom Green: A guy who used to be really, really funny. Has disappeared from public view over the last ten years. Sad, really.
Jesse James: Used to host a little show called Monster Garage. Now he's married to Sandra Bullock (cameo, perhaps?).
Clint Black: Country singer who refuses to age.
Tionne “T-Boz” Watkins: Former member of TLC. The least interesting one.
Despite the lack of true celebrities on The Apprentice: Celebrity Edition II, this is a cast of interesting characters. I'll be watching, and there's enough crazy people in there to make the season fun.

I stumbled upon a spoiler ..............
The Celebrity Apprentice 2
Joan Rivers spoils end of Celebrity Apprentice 2
The Celebrity Apprentice 2 has completed production, and one of its cast members has accidentally revealed one of the cast members who makes it to the final episode.
Joan Rivers, who’s competing on the show along with her daughter Melissa Rivers and other celebrities, was on Howard Stern’s radio show and talked about her time on the series. In non-spoiler news, she said that she competed with Tom Green, but then revealed one of the cast members who made it to the end.
Howard Stern Show recap site MarksFriggin.com reports (highlight the blank part to reveal the name) that “Joan wasn’t going to talk about it but then she let it slip *highlight spoiler>>*that Melissa made it right to the end. She realized her mistake and didn’t say anything else about it.”
The show recap on Howard Stern’s own web site doesn’t mention that moment, and instead says, “Joan Rivers refused to comment on the next season of ‘Celebrity Apprentice.’” In other words, Joan Rivers wishes she’d refused to comment on the next season.
