Season chronology |
The Celebrity Apprentice 7 (also known as The Apprentice 14) is the seventh installment of the reality game show, Celebrity Apprentice. Despite this season having long concluded filming in early 2014, it premiered on Sunday, January 4, 2015.[1] As a result of the significant time between the season's filming and its airing, numerous spoilers were released. The season aired more than a year and a half after the conclusion of the previous season. This was Donald Trump's final season as host as he was replaced by Arnold Schwarzenegger amidst Trump's campaign for the U.S. presidency in advance of the 2016 election.
Shortly following the death of Celebrity Apprentice 2 winner, Joan Rivers, Trump revealed that Rivers was one of his advisors for two episodes of this (then-upcoming) season (specifically as a judge in episodes 4 and 6).[2]
The season had 16 cast members. Leeza Gibbons was the winner, while Geraldo Rivera was the runner-up.
