The Celebrity Apprentice star and executive producer Donald Trump will reveal the seventh-season winner -- which will be The Apprentice franchise's fourteenth winner overall -- on live television from New York City on Monday, February 16 from 8-10PM ET/PT.
The champion will receive the $250,000 grand prize to give to his or her charity.
Prior to the Season 7 live finale, NBC will air The Celebrity Apprentice: Top Feuds, Firings and Fails from 8-9PM ET/PT. The special episode will broadcast some of the best moments in The Apprentice history -- including hirings, firings, memorable feuds, and big mistakes. The season's final task will then follow.
"This season of The Celebrity Apprentice is one of the best ever," Trump said in a statement. "We have 16 amazing celebrities that have worked so hard and there has been more drama in the boardroom than ever before. Such great TV."

The show's finale will feature the two celebrity finalists competing in their last task with the help of six previously-fired contestants.
The final task will require the celebrities to travel to Orlando, FL, and create a commercial for Universal Orlando Resort to sell resort vacation packages. Once the celebrities get back to New York, they'll present their commercials in front of many stars at a red carpet event.
Nine celebrities still remain in the running to win: Leeza Gibbons, Ian Ziering, Kenya Moore, Johnny Damon, Brandi Glanville, Geraldo Rivera, Kate Gosselin, Vivica A. Fox, and Sig Hansen.
The Celebrity Apprentice contestants have raised more than $15 million for charity throughout its history on TV.
The reality series is produced by United Artists Media Group in association with Trump Productions. Trump, Mark Burnett, Page Feldman and Eric Van Wagenen serve as executive producers.
