'All-Star Celebrity Apprentice' Finally Crowns a Winner
May 20, 2013 12:05:07The season 6 of "The Celebrity Apprentice" has finally come to an end as a winner was finally revealed.

In the May 19 episode, both finally launched their events, which became the decisive factor for each man's destiny.
Taking charge of promoting Maple Macadamia Mashup flavor, Adkins and his partners, including Lil Jon, Gary Busey and Marilu Henner, at first had trouble finding donors for their launch event. His worries were over as Thompson Square, Billy Ray Cyrus and Wynonna Judd showed up along with a few other country stars.

'Celebrity Apprentice' Recap: Marilu Henner's 'Interesting' Leadership Gets Her Fired
May 06, 2013 02:05:52Another project manager was dragged down into a pit of elimination in the May 5 episode of "The Celebrity Apprentice". This time, Marilu Henner had to pay the price for her mistake as she took charge of Team Power, leading Trace Adkins and Lil Jon to host a Foxwoods Resorts party in a suite at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
Going for the King theme, Team Power showed a poor teamwork as Henner decided to go solo for food and kingly props, leaving Jon and Adkins handling the entertainment. With Hunter Hayes and LuAnn De Lesseps building the festive mood, the regal-themed party was apparently a bit too much for Adkins. "I never been to a party with massages and chess where people had their clothes on," Adkins cynically commented on Henner's creation.
