"Apprentice" Women High-Five Trace

Trace Adkins has a real test on his hands tonight as he squares off against "America's Got Talent" judge Piers Morgan in the finale of the NBC series "The Celebrity Apprentice."

Trace has frequently said that he had no strategy for winning "Apprentice" because he figured he would be fired in the boardroom in the first four or five episodes. That ended up being a positive approach in a contest filled with Type-A personalities.

"I think [Type A's are] what we classically think are the people that win in life," fellow contestant Nely Galan reflects. "He says he had no strategy, but his strategy was really very analytical: lay back, take it slow, get under the radar for a while, and then come in for the kill."

"A lot of the other guys had that Type-A personality," Marilu Henner adds, "and they were sucking up all the oxygen in the room. There was like no air to breathe, and there was Trace in the corner, playing his guitar, creating his own oxygen."

And perhaps creating a path to a $250,000 prize. The winner of tonight's episode will win a quarter-million dollars for his charity of choice. Trace will provide an additional way for viewers to contribute to his charity, the Food Allergy & Anaphylaxis Network. He's scheduled to perform his current single, "You're Gonna Miss This," on the show, and a download will be available immediately after the performance with the proceeds slated for FAAN.
