Carrie Keagan is among the first cast members to sign on to Celebrity Apprentice with Arnold Schwarzenegger at the helm. The eighth season marks the first without Donald Trump. NBC severed ties with the Republican presidential hopeful in June after he made disparaging remarks about immigrants.

Surprisingly, Donald Trump didn’t lash out at NBC when they replaced him with Arnold Schwarzenegger.
To all my fans, sorry I couldn’t do The Apprentice any longer—but equal time (presidential run) prohibits me from doing so. Love!
