I selected Clint Black to appear on Celebrity Apprentice because Clint is not only a gifted musician and songwriter, but he’s a good businessman. He has his own record company and has sold over 20 million albums worldwide. He’s bringing a lot of talent to the boardroom.
Becoming a star recording artist requires determination, talent, hard work and, yes, luck. As any successful musician can tell you, it's a lot easier to fall out of the spotlight than it is to climb into it, which is why Clint Black was especially smart to secure his future with the establishment of Equity Music Group, a record company he co-founded in 2003. In addition to Clint, Equity Music is the home to country music stars Laura Bryna, Carolina Rain, Kevin Fowler and Blake Wise.
Of course, Clint never let himself fall out of the spotlight. He has written, recorded and released more than 100 songs, a benchmark for any artist. Astoundingly, one third of his singles achieved hit song status at Country Radio and, as I mentioned, he has sold over 20 million records.
Clint Black appears on Celebrity Apprentice to benefit the charity International Rett Syndrome Foundation (http://www.rettsyndrome.org/). Sadly, Clint's brother, Kevin Black, lost his daughter, Cortney, to Rett syndrome several years ago. The mission of IRSF is to fund research for treatments and a cure for Rett syndrome while enhancing the overall quality of life for those living with Rett syndrome by providing information, programs, and services.
Rett syndrome is neurodevelopmental disorder that strikes in infancy or early childhood. While Rett occurs mostly in females, it can affect boys too and is found in every ethnic group throughout the world. Most people living with Rett syndrome require extensive assistance with all aspects of their daily life.
I can’t wait to see what Clint Black does on Celebrity Apprentice.

Looking foward to your boardroom in the celebrity Apprentice in March 1...
Willie Nelson is a long time musician, actor, and generous humanitarian.
He has entertained millions of people throughout the world and donated money to needy farmers.
Farmers are a gift everyone benefits from. Too often charity is being given to sick people, diseases, homelessness, and the negative oppressions in life.
It would be refreshing to see money donated to making people happy. Individual causes only help a handful of people in a world that is starving for recognition, freedom from oppression, and goodwill without a stigma attached to it.
Gay people, disabled veterans, teachers, Democrats, the Yankees and fashion designers all have something in common. They all want to be happy and make other people happy as well.
I am working very hard on raising money to entertain, and bring together people of all ages, from diverse cultures, economic and educational backrounds for one cause only. To have fun and share laughter.
You will be hearing more about my "Think Big" plan in the near future.
I wish Clint Black all the Best, and hope that he appreciates and enjoys the benefits of being an
Apprentice.
Once again, I look forward to watching Celebrity Apprentice and your fantastic ability to connect with your audience.
I am wishing you and your elite selections all the best of success this season. The people you choose and the causes they stand for are worthy. I will look forward to reading the recaps and lessons learned. You are providing a valuable contribution to the development of future business minds.
