THE APPRENTICE WILL BE BACK! CELEBRITY STYLE...
Donald Trump won't be the only celebrity on the next edition of The Apprentice -- he'll be surrounded by them! To pump new life into the sagging reality series, the creatively coiffed real estate tycoon will be firing a yet-to-be-cast group of celebrities, bringing a bit of The Surreal Life to the boardroom. The Donald says he'd like his old nemesis Rosie O'Donnell to sign up, but her rep says, "It will not happen in this lifetime or beyond." The winner won't work for him... instead, they'll receive "a large sum of money" to donate to charity.

WHAT YOUR PIZZA TOPPING SAYS ABOUT YOUR RELATIONSHIP
Think a candlelit dinner is the best venue to find out a date’s potential? Well, a new study claims that ordering a good ol’ pizza pie can be much more telling. Here’s what certain toppings say about you, your date, and your future together.

If your date orders one meat topping…People who order just pepperoni or sausage on their pie are generally irritable, prone to procrastination, and they often “forget” obligations (like that weekend getaway he or she promised to take with you in the spring).

Compatible with: others who prefer one meat topping

If your date orders multiple meat toppings…Real meat lovers who pile on the pepperoni, sausage, and ham tend to be dramatic, seductive, sweep-you-off-your-feet extroverts who thrive as the center of attention.

Compatible with: people who prefer one meat topping

If your date orders one veggie topping…Those who prefer one vegetable topping are empathetic, easygoing romantics.

Compatible with: everybody!

If your date orders multiple veggies…These dates are trustworthy, loyal, humble, and avoid the spotlight. In fact, they’re so quiet and conflict-averse they tend to be taken for granted in relationships.

Compatible with: people who prefer non-traditional toppings

If your date orders non-traditional toppings…People who prefer offbeat options like pineapple or extra onions tend to be aggressive, ambitious, and competitive. In other words: Don’t expect a mellow relationship.

Compatible with: others who prefer non-traditional toppings
