Bret Michaels, Sharon Osbourne and Cyndi Lauper may all get to hear the words “you’re fired” from Donald Trump on the NBC program’s new season.

Nine others are joining them, including — for now — former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, who was impeached last year and is facing federal racketeering, extortion and fraud charges. He’s accused of trying to trade state government business for campaign cash and of trying to sell the U.S. Senate seat vacated by President Barack Obama.

Blagojevich was denied the opportunity to compete on last summer’s I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here!

News: Rod Blagojevich’s Reality-TV Dream Is Dashed

Blagojevich’s reality show dreams could be dashed again. He was due in court Monday for a hearing in his federal corruption case, and his lawyers could address his upcoming appearance on Celebrity Apprentice.

A photo of the new cast shooting their opening appeared in the New York Post and reveals that actress Holly Robinson Peete and former baseball star Darryl Strawberry will also be facing the Donald this cycle.

Rounding out the competition: wrestlers Goldberg and Maria Kanellis, Take Home Chef Curtis Stone, comedian Sinbad, Olympic swimmer Summer Sanders and writer/comedian Carol Leifer — the inspiration behind Seinfeld’s Elaine.

The selection of this menagerie of people already has taken a hit. Seth Meyers joked on Saturday Night Live’s “Weekend Update” that the new cast of Celebrity Apprentice reduces the meaning of “celebrity” to “mammal.”

Sharon Osbourne reportedly got into a fight with contestant Megan Hauserman. According to TMZ, Hauserman said that Osbourne became angry during the taping of the special, allegedly running across the stage, grabbing the contestant by the hair and continuing to pull her hair and scratch at her until security separated them.

Los Angeles Police Department spokesperson Kate Lopez confirmed that a battery incident was alleged to have occurred during a taping of a reality show hosted by Osbourne over the weekend. “We can’t verify Osbourne’s involvement,” Lopez said on Monday morning (December 15). “An investigative report was taken … and detectives will do interviews to determine if charges should be filed.”

Hauserman said she went to the hospital Sunday afternoon and filed a report with the LAPD later that day. TMZ has posted a video of her being interviewed by a police officer and leaving a hospital with her left arm in a sling.

The former Playboy Cyber Girl reportedly told TMZ that the source of the fight was a comment she made about Osbourne’s husband, Ozzy. Hauserman said she reacted to a slight from Sharon by saying that the show’s host was only famous for managing a “brain-dead rock star.”

Osbourne, of course, is known for her scrappy sensibility — whether she is feuding with Iron Maiden, throwing down with a showbiz flack at a Japanese restaurant in West Hollywood or unceremoniously dumping the Smashing Pumpkins as a management client. But as the host of “Charm School,” Osbourne is charged with taming 14 contestants from the two seasons of Bret Michaels’ “Rock of Love,” as the women attempt to learn etiquette for a chance to win $100,000.

Hauserman, who began her reality-TV career winning the third season of the CW’s “Beauty and the Geek” in 2007, went on to be a contestant on season two of “Rock of Love” and the VH1 show “I Love Money.” She’s slated to get her own VH1 spin-off called “Trophy Wife.”

A rep for Sharon Osbourne had not responded to MTV News’ request for comment at press time.
