After months of rumors, the cast of the seventh season of The Celebrity Apprentice was confirmed by Donald Trump on the Today show on Tuesday (Nov. 4), and it includes a mixture of famous faces and fan favorites.

Among the cast members are actress Vivica A. Fox, Cosby Show Alum Keshia Knight Pulliam, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kenya Moore and former NFL star Terrell Owens.

“This season of The Celebrity Apprentice is on point to be the best yet,” Trump said in a release. “With 16 extraordinary contestants bringing their energy to the boardroom, it is sure to be a hit, as always.”

After making the cast announcement, Trump revealed that last year’s winner, the late Joan Rivers, will appear in two episodes of the upcoming season as a guest adviser.

“I saw her a few days before she passed away, and I want to tell you, I said, ‘She’s going to live forever.’ You looked at her — she was so strong and so vibrant,” he said of Rivers.

He also revealed that there was some consideration given to re-editing Rivers’ scenes following her death, but ultimately viewed the episodes as a way to remember her.

“We decided, in memoriam, we’re going do something and honor her during those two shows,” he told TODAY’s Matt Lauer. “She was so good, and I think she would have liked it that way.”

The two-night premiere starts Jan. 4 at 9 p.m. and continues on Jan. 5 at 8 p.m.
