So, I remember hearing about John Rich, the country music guy, and that Apprentice show he was on. It kinda stuck in my head, so I figured I’d poke around and see what the deal was.
Started looking into it, you know, just casually searching online. Found out pretty quick he wasn’t on the regular Apprentice, but the Celebrity Apprentice version. Makes sense, him being famous and all.
Turns out he was on the fourth season of that celebrity spin-off. That would have been back around 2011, I think the records showed.
What Happened On The Show
From what I gathered, he went through all the usual stuff they do on that show. The teams, the challenges, the boardroom drama, all that.
-
They had tasks each week.
-
Someone got “fired” each week.
-
They were raising money for charity, I believe.
Anyway, the main thing I found was that he actually won the whole thing for his season. Yeah, John Rich came out on top.
He apparently beat Marlee Matlin, the actress, in the final round. So he got the title of Celebrity Apprentice for that year.
Later on, I saw they did an “All-Star” season, bringing back folks from different years. John Rich wasn’t the winner of that one, though. It was another country singer, Trace Adkins, who won the All-Star version, which was apparently season 6.
So yeah, that was my little dive into the John Rich Apprentice thing. He went on the celebrity version, competed, and ended up winning his season. Pretty interesting stuff when you just follow the trail.
