Despite much speculation in the past few months, business tycoon Donald Trump has decided not to run for president of the United States in 2012. The reality star has instead decided that he's going to continue on with his hit TV series, The Celebrity Apprentice

The main reason? Because of the money the show has raised for charity.

"I love 'Celebrity Apprentice," he announced at NBC's Upfront Presentation on Monday.

"We've raised tens-of-millions of dollars for charity, we've never raised so much as we have in the last season."

"We're going to continue making lots and lots of money fo...

Donald Trump has sparked a war of words with Jerry Seinfeld after the comedian pulled out of an appearance at an upcoming charity fundraiser.

The funnyman was due to perform at a benefit for The Eric Trump Foundation, run by the mogul's son, in September, but cancelled after Donald began publicly questioning President Barack Obama's citizenship. The real estate tycoon, who is considering a possible presidential run, has been vocal about his disapproval of the country's leader and has raised doubts over whether Obama was born in the U.S.

A furious Trump fired off an angry letter to Seinf...

Alright, time to forget all the "real" people trying to become Donald Trump's next Apprentice - let's get back to the spectacle that is Celebrity Apprentice. Last night we Dionne Warwick struggling with a credit card machine, Gary Busey wandering into traffic dressed like a TV evangelist, and Lisa Rinna was giving the most two-faced performance in Celebrity Apprentice premiere history.

After their dramatic entrances, Donald ups the ante by talking on rooftops and being escorted by The Rockettes. After a few introductions (including Marlee Matlin's interpreter - more on this later) and cele...

The back-to-basics 10th season of NBC's "The Apprentice" came to a nail biting conclusion last night. This past season, Donald Trump put 16 candidates hit hard by the economic times through the ringer and only one of these candidates came out the victor.

Last night, Donald Trump revealed that Brandy Kuentzel, an unemployed lawyer from San Francisco, won the coveted title of "The Apprentice."

Brandy Kuentzel was hired over fellow finalist Clint Robertson, of Ft. Worth, Texas, after a dynamic boardroom showdown. Brandy will now be working closely with Don Jr, Ivanka and Eric Trump on mer...

The Don confirmed that this season of NBC's "The Apprentice," now in its tenth season, will likely be the last edition with non-celebrities.

"We wanted to do one more," he told us. "But the celebrity edition has really been a great success."

Trump also attributed the recession as a factor.

"It was a go-go world. 'The Apprentice' went on in that atmosphere," he said, describing the economic climate five or six years ago, when the show was in its early seasons, which featured top graduates from top business schools. In the current cycle, down-on-their-luck Americans who've suffered in t...

NBC is likely getting tired of being referred to as "fourth place NBC." Last year's Jay Leno experiment was clearly a disaster and served as a boon for TBS, which won the Conan sweepstakes. This fall, NBC has fresher programming. With aging favorites and risky new underdogs, does the network have a shot at moving up the ratings ladder, even to third place? Time will tell. Stranger things have happened. Here's a look at what new shows could make the grade and what's in store for old favorites.

If there is one word to describe Donald Trump’s feelings about the new season of “The Apprentice” it’s optimistic. “Well, I think it’s the best ‘Apprentice’ that we’ve done since Season One,” says Trump who is host and also executive producer. “I think the field [of candidates] is terrific. It’s a better plot in terms of bad times versus good times.”

The plot to which Trump is referring is the new focus of the show in terms of the contestants who are competing for a chance to land a job in the Trump Organization. All 16 contestants have somehow been affected by the recent economic downturn...

Real-estate tycoon-turned reality TV star Donald Trump has spoken out against controversial plans to open a mosque close to the site of the 9/11 terrorist atrocities in New York, insisting it's "insensitive" and "wrong" to build the center so close to the 2001 tragedy.

Muslim activist Feisal Abdul Rauf is behind plans to build a $100 million mosque just a few blocks from the site of the World Trade Center, which have sparked a heated debate about the status of religious freedom and tolerance.

Furious citizens have banded together to urge city officials to insist the mosque is moved away f...

"The Green Mile" star Michael Clarke Duncan has fallen in love with a reality TV star who found fame on Donald Trump's "The Apprentice."

The heavyweight actor recently began dating Omarosa Manigault-Stallworth, a participant on the 2004 season of Trump's hit program, after meeting her at a grocery store.

He recalls, "I was in there one day and I saw her and I thought to myself, that is a gorgeous woman. She is fine."

Duncan plucked up the courage to ask her out and the pair has been together ever since.

And Manigault-Stallworth admits the hulking star is really a big softy.

Property tycoon-turned-TV personality Donald Trump has begun the construction of his controversial golf course resort in northern Scotland after years of delays and disputes with local residents.

Trump's plans to build the "world's greatest golf course" in the seaside city of Aberdeen stalled after environmentalists protested its development, insisting construction would damage sand dunes in a protected area. His proposal was originally rejected by Aberdeenshire Council officials before finally being approved by the national government in November 2008.

Government officials cited "signif...

Ivanka Trump looked like a sexy businesswoman when she arrived at the FOX Studios in central Manhattan on Thursday. Look at those killer curves!

She struck a pose in a white collared blouse and beige skirt before promoting the "HP LaserJet Pays You Back" global marketing campaign.

Ivanka told the press, "What seems like a small decision -- like buying a printer -- can have a big impact on your business. I'm a fan of creating value and I like to create efficiency -- the HP LaserJet printers do both and can provide near- and long-term return on investment."

Officials at Donald Trump's online business program Trump University are facing legal action from a former student; amid accusations the school's courses are bogus.

In a class-action suit filed in San Diego, California federal court, fashion designer Tarla Makaeff claims she was guaranteed a one-year apprenticeship and a personal real estate mentor that would be the "next best thing" to being on Trump's hit reality show The Apprentice.

Ozzy Osbourne's manager/wife Sharon has been left devastated by news her longtime pal Bret Michaels is fighting for his life in a Texas hospital.

Michaels, who is a contestant on the current season of "Celebrity Apprentice" alongside Osbourne, is in critical condition after suffering a brain hemorrhage last week.

And Osbourne admits the shocking news has deeply upset her.

She says, "Bret is a good friend of mine. I am completely devastated by what has happened to him right now.

"It is just hideous. It makes you feel all these different feelings. Your heart goes out to his family. Your h...

Another season of The Apprentice, another Celebrity version. While it would be nice for Donald Trump to help out our unemployment numbers by actually hiring someone via the show, he has quite an interesting group of celebrities to deal with this season.

Rod Blagojevich: Included because the producers knew the announcement would make a splash (and it did), don't expect the former Illinois Governor to last very long. Remember, Khloe Kardashian was fired for a DUI arrest last season. Expect Rod to scrape together some cash for charity, then get ousted during a bully pulpit from The Don.

As the decade reaches its conclusion, you'll undoubtedly come across many lists. Lists that purport to tell you the best, the top, the cream of the decade as they relate to pop culture. You're also certain to come across many lists that claim to rank the "greatest" of the ten year period from 2000-2009. But what does that really mean?

"Greatest" should be something entirely different from what we usually associate with these lists. Mostly, these lists claim to rank the best - something that is only truly possible were a listmaker to, say, see every single movie in a given decade. If...

A judge has dismissed Donald Trump's defamation lawsuit against writer Timothy O'Brien - in which he accused the reporter of libel for claiming his fortune was much less than the tycoon stated.

Last year Trump filed suit against New York Times Sunday business editor O'Brien, alleging the journalist had damaged his reputation in 2005 book TrumpNation: The Art of Being The Donald.

In the tome, O'Brien was told by three separate sources that The Apprentice star is worth between $150 million and $250 million - far less than Trump's own assertions that he is worth billions. Trump's legal...

This recent episode brought to mind a weak point that has been in Hell's Kitchen since its creation. Most reality shows allow the contestants or public to vote on who should be on the chopping block, but Hell's Kitchen leaves it all in the hands of its host, Chef Gordon Ramsay.

Right now you may be thinking to yourself, “Hey, in The Apprentice, Donald Trump gets to choose who goes.” This is true, but Trump isn’t watching the contests as they go about their challenges – thus allowing players to lie to “The Don” in the boardroom to get a powerful rival out. In “Hell’s Kitchen,” Ramsay i...

The program, which began development last yea, has been given the go-ahead by MTV and will debut on the network in January 2009.

The Apprentice star Donald Trump is eager to have another child - at the age 62.

The business tycoon became a father of five in 2006 when his third wife Melania Knauss gave birth to the couple's first son Barron.

However he doesn't want to stop there. Trump says, "Stranger things have happened. You know that stuff does happen, right? So I don't know, we'll see what happens. I have a wonderful wife who is very capable. And who knows, maybe we'll have a surprise."

In addition to Barron, two, Trump is also father to Donald Jr., 30, Ivanka, 26, and Eric, 24 from his first marr...

LOS ANGELES (AP) - The producer of hit reality series "Survivor" and "The Apprentice" has countersued his longtime business partner.

Mark Burnett filed the lawsuit against Conrad Riggs on Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court. In the lawsuit, Burnett claims that he paid Riggs their agreed-upon 10 percent of net earnings on television projects.

But the lawsuit says $25 million in payments wasn't enough for Riggs. Riggs is trying to get paid "on projects for which his services were never requested and on which he rendered none," Burnett's lawsuit contends.
