As you most likely have already read, disgraced former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich is finally getting his day in the reality-show sun.

A federal judge last year barred Blagojevich from traveling out of the country to appear on "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!" But Blago will be joining the cast of the upcoming season of Donald Trump's "Celebrity Apprentice." He'll be joined by former Poison singer (and current VH1 bankroller) Bret Michaels, baseball legend Darryl Strawberry, TV personality Sharon Osbourne and many more contestants that you've only vaguely heard of.

The contestants are playing for charity instead of a job with Donald Trump. So the show i's straining the definition not only of "celebrity," but of "apprentice" as well.

Anyway, of course the reason you'll be tuning in -- and you will, right?? -- is the hair. Blago vs. Trump:  It's on!
