'Celebrity Apprentice' Recap: Mixed-Up Teams and Nude Photo Shoot
TV

Arnold Schwarzenegger mixes up the team members since the women's team loses four of the five tasks.

AceShowbiz - Arnold Schwarzenegger assigned the remaining contestants on "The Celebrity Apprentice" more tasks in the latest episode. The Monday, January 16 outing began with Team Prima and Team Arete having to create a four-image photo campaign for a Kawasaki motorcycles gallery exhibit.

Kyle Richards stepped up to lead the women and Carson Kressley volunteered to be project manager for the men's team. As always, Carson was willing to do anything to complete the task, including stripping down for a photo shoot on a motorcycle. The other guys also posed on the motorcycle, though with their clothes on. Carson also included a drag queen for another shot, but Chael Sonnen, Vince Neil and Jon Lovitz thought it was the wrong direction. The naked pic was eventually cut from the display.

As for the ladies, they chose a "powerful women" theme. They included Brooke Burke's husband David Charvet in the photo shoot, but he refused to sit in the back for their couple shot, reasoning that he's afraid Arnold would "look at [him] like some kind of wimp."

The Kawasaki execs gave mixed reviews to both teams' presentations and photos, but in the end Team Arete was chosen as the winner. Carson won $25,000 for the True Colors Fund, but Kawasaki also gave $25,000 for Kyle's charity for Children's Hospital Los Angeles.

Richards kept Brooke, whose husband refused to sit in the back during the photo shoot, and Porsha Williams, whose picture got negative review, in the boardroom. Brooke refused to take responsibility for her team's loss. Arnold noted this wasn't the first time Kyle's creativity led to a loss and because she's a project manager this time, she was "terminated."

Before the second challenge, Arnold mixed up the teams to combine both genders, because the women's team continued losing its member. Carson, Vince and Chael joined Team Prima, while Brooke and Lisa Leslie moved to Team Arete.

Vince offered to be project manager for Team Prima, while Ricky Williams stepped up to lead his team. Each team had to create their own See's Candy chocolate for owner Warren Buffett and then sell it in a store. The team with the biggest tally would be declared the winner. As the stars tried to get donations, Matt Iseman started working in the candy-making factory with Laila Ali. Carson and Porsha also made the candy for Team Prima.

Team Prima raised $378,535, while Team Arete earned $365,745. The funds were donated to Vince's charity, Keep Memory Alive. In the boardroom, Ricky admitted he didn't fulfill his own goal. But his teammates agreed that Jon Lovitz, who only raised $500, was the "weakest link." He and Laila stayed in the boardroom along with Ricky.

Arnold criticized the project manager for not going full-throttle with the fundraising, but he eventually terminated Jon for raising the least amount of money on the team.
