He might not have made I'm a celeb, but Gene is still going on a reality show....

From DigitalSpy (thanks Kevin) 

The Apprentice will regain its former Thursday, 9pm slot when it returns for its new season in January.

The Donald Trump reality contest enjoyed its best ever ratings in the coveted slot - now occupied by comedies such as The Office and Scrubs - several years ago, but the WGA strike has now created an opportunity for the series to return to its former home.

 Jerry Only. Eddie Van Halen. Billy Gibbons. Jack White.  Gene Simmons. Albert King...

We salute rock & roll's most iconic tool of the trade since stuffed spandex - the multinecked, fur-lined, flame-throwing masterpieces that remain as influential as the shredders who strapped them on.
