Celebrity Apprentice Australia is back for season two, premiering on Sunday, May 22, at 7.00 pm on Channel Nine and 9Now.
Up for grabs is $100,000 in prize money for the winner’s charity, bringing together some of the country’s biggest stars to compete in challenges that test various aspects of business.
This season, the celebrities will take part in high-pressure tasks to see who can raise the most money for their chosen charity. It will also see the most amount of money raised for charity which has never been done before on the show.
But celebrities being celebrities, what starts with the best of intentions can often become a fight for power, control and most of all, the limelight.
All the apprentices are brilliant at what they do, they are known and respected by the public and are passionate about their causes. But can they work together and harness the power of their fellow famous colleagues to raise the most money?
British billionaire Lord Alan Sugar will have the power to fire the apprentices who perform badly and fail to impress him in the all-important tasks.
Judging their skills and business acumen alongside him are his local advisers, respected Australian business people, Janine Allis and Nick Bell.
