Delta Goodrem ‘inks deal’ to appear on Celebrity Apprentice amid All-Stars rumours

This year’s season of Celebrity Apprentice Australia proved to be a ratings hit thanks to its diverse star-studded cast.

So it’s no surprise that Channel Nine are sparing no expense to capitalise on its success.

Daily Mail Australia understands that Delta Goodrem has already ‘inked a deal to appear on Celebrity Apprentice next year’.

The 36-year-old singer is ‘virtually confirmed’ to be one of the many high-profile celebrities heading into Alan Sugar’s boardroom, according to a production insider.

‘Delta was flattered to be asked on Celebrity Apprentice,’ a source told Daily Mail Australia.

‘It’s another great chance for her to build her public profile and work with Lord Sugar.’

‘She’s business savvy and competitive as well as intelligent so producers thought she would be a perfect fit.’

Delta recently turned down the offer to jump ships to Channel Seven after an eight-year-run on The Voice.

According to the source, the network are looking for some strong personalities when the show begins filming in October, after seeing the show’s ratings plummet after Martha Kalifatidis was booted weeks out from the finale.  

It comes just months after New Idea reported that the network were so pleased with the show’s ratings that an All-Stars season was ‘absolutely on the cards’ for next year.

‘Ian Dickson, Sophie Monk and Gina Liano could be back in the boardroom sooner rather than later,’ the source said. 

All Stars seasons have certainly been a hit with other successful TV franchises, most recently being MasterChef.

Daily Mail Australia has reached out to Delta Goodrem and Nine for comment.
