NBC and Donald Trump announced Thursday the all-star celebrity cast for the second season of The Celebrity Apprentice.

The upcoming season will feature 16 new celebrities, with the men competing against the women once more. The men include everyone from musicians to athletes to comedians including Clint Black, Andrew Dice Clay, Tom Green, Scott Hamilton, Jesse James, Brian McKnight, Dennis Rodman, and Herschel Walker.

The women include reality stars like Khloe Kardashian, mother and daughter duo Joan and Melissa Rivers as well as Annie Duke, Natalie Gulbis, Claudia Jordan, Brande Roderick and Tionne Watkins.

"Last season's Celebrity Apprentice became one of the hottest shows on television - and this season will be even better," said executive producer Donald Trump. "We have an amazing cast of celebrities and we are looking forward to some fantastic entertainment."

All the celebrities will be vying for the coveted title as they fight for their respective causes. They will ultimately face judgment in the boardroom by Trump, his two children, Donald Trump, Jr. and Ivanka Trump, and trusted advisor George Ross.

The new two-hour-long episodes begin on Sunday, March 1 at 9 pm/ET.
