Oh no, disgraced Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich, who’s charged with trying to auction off President Barack Obama‘s former U.S. Senate seat, is going to be on the next season of “Celebrity Apprentice.”

Among the others announced to be on the Donald Trump reality competition show, which returns to NBC on March 14, are Sharon Osbourne, former baseball star Darryl Strawberry, Olympic gold medalist Michael Johnson, Cyndi Lauper, Holly Robinson Peete, Victoria’s Secret model Selita Ebanks, Sinbad, comedienne Carol Leifer, wrestler “Goldberg,” wrestler/model Maria Kanellis, Olympic swimmer Summer Sanders, Australian TV chef Curtis Stone, and Bret Michaels, who’s calling himself the “super-underdog.”

The celebrities will, once again, be competing for various charities. Blagojevich will be trying to make money — not for his defense, but rather — for the  Children’s Cancer Center.

Blagojevich attempted last spring to appear on “I’m a Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here,” but was barred by a federal judge, who didn’t want him leaving country to compete in Costa Rica. Instead, his wife Patti Blagojevich appeared on the show.

Lindsay Lohan is a celebrity, but get out of here with this latest tall tale. She is not – we repeat, not – going to appear on the UK version of “I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!” The rumor that she would appear on the show began in the British magazine Now!, which claimed one of the UK networks was “going all out to sign some big names, with Lindsay Lohan lined up.”

But even the article backpedaled slightly when it added, “The Hollywood hellraiser is in talks with the station,” and that they are “trying to work out if they can afford her six-figure salary – plus extras.”

Gossip Cop can save them time figuring out how to pay for the “extras.” Lohan is not doing the dumped-in-the-jungle show. Her rep called the report “completely ridiculous and untrue.”
