Trace Adkins' integrity and passion for his charity was enough to qualify him as one of the two finalists in this season of the TV reality series, The Celebrity Apprentice. With four finalists remaining when Thursday night's (March 20) episode began, Donald Trump fired model Carol Alt and boxer Lennox Lewis to leave Adkins and British media personality Piers Morgan as the last contestants standing. Adkins chose Lewis and actress Marilu Henner to be on his team to determine the decor and entertainment for a charity event. One of Adkins' tasks was to fulfill requests made by the event's musical headliners -- the Backstreet Boys. Adkins is appearing on the show to raise money for his charity of choice, the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network. This season's winner will be announced live on a live, two-hour broadcast of The Celebrity Apprentice airing Thursday (March 27) on NBC.
