You're Hired: Teresa Heads to 'The Celebrity Apprentice.'

It's official: Donald Trump is bringing New Jersey to the boardroom.

After copious speculation, the hair himself confirmed that The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice will be following in the footsteps of one NeNe Leakes and competing in Season 5 of The Celebrity Apprentice.

The new season will kick off on February 12th at 9/8 C., with Tre competing against 18 other stars, ranging from the elder statesman George Takei (74) to young upstart and former Making the Band-er Aubrey O'Day.

We're going to avoid making the obvious conference room/table flip joke and focus on sizing up Mrs. Giudice's competition. Certainly, an Italian cookoff between T and Victoria Gotti seems likely. Could Tre and Lisa Lampanelli bond over their sense of humor (and the occasions when folks might think it's a little too harsh)? Is Dee Snider still refusing to take it? Will the Jersey language barrier make teamwork difficult? Did G-to-the-Ia write her mom a theme song to get her hyped? How many bathing suits did T bring to New York City? The full cast list is below, so you can see exactly who the Skinny Italian is stacked up against.

At the very least, we'll have to wait and see what happens to the tables (sorry, we couldn't resist after all). Good luck Teresa. There's no doubt you can the rest of these competitors how it's done!
