Country singer John Rich was declared the Celebrity Apprentice over Oscar-winner Marlee Matlin. In the end, Rich raised more than $1 million for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis.
Farouk Shami, founder and chairman of Farouk Systems, along with Jason Yates, Vice President of Sales and Marketing and celebrity stylist, attended the finale which included other notable guests such as Paula Shugart, president of the Miss Universe Organization, Dee Snider of Twisted Sister fame and reigning Miss USA Rima Fakih.
"It was fantastic to participate in such a memorable season of The Celebrity Apprentice," says Shami. "Competition aside, all the charities supported by the celebrities are the real winners."
