Donald Trump: Real Estate CEO and America's CEO?

www.perezhilton.com
When it comes to Donald Trump, celebrity, real estate billionaire and Celebrity Apprentice host always crossed my mind. I never would have thought the President of the United States would be added to that list..that is until now.

Rumors started circulating back in January that Trump may be entering the 2012 presidential election and while he won't announce anything until the current season of Celebrity Apprentice wraps up in June, he told Forbes "I hate what’s happened to the country. I hate what’s going on in respect to how other parts of the world are taking advantage of this country, whether it’s OPEC or China or many others, and I am seriously thinking about it."

While his decision isn't final, Trump is hot on the heels of GOP candidate, New Hampshire's Mitt Romney. Polls show Romney has 27 percent of voters' support while Trump is a close second with 21 percent according to NY Daily News.

CNN released a poll just this week placing the celebrity candidate and Mike Huckabee as the top contenders for the Republican party. Both men are tied for first with 19 percent of the voters' support. The poll revealed Mitt Romney had dropped to 4th place with only 11 percent of the voters' support.

2012 is infamous for being the year the world comes to an end, and now a celebrity is running for president for the same year. Coincidence? I guess we'll just wait for the public to decide.

In the mean time, Trump maybe able to earn some brownie points by bailing out the government...just sayin'.

Austin, TX: Home to the Bachelor

Since the airing of the last episode of the Bachelor last week, Brad Womack and Emily Maynard have announced they will be relocating back to Womack's hometown, beautiful Austin, Texas.

Despite rumors that Womack is moving to North Carolina to be with his fiance, Maynard and her 5-year-old daughter Ricki have decided to move to Austin, Texas to be the late Bachelor.

"She feels like the best thing to do is to give this a real shot and put her heart into it by moving to Austin for the summer," says an insider close to Emily, 25, reported by The Huffington Post.

The couple will not be living together however. Maynard and Ricki will move into their own condo.

Brad and his twin brother are the proud owners of four bars in Austin, Texas. The most popular ones being the Dizzy Rooster and the Chuggin' Monkey which are located on the infamous Sixth Street.

Womack made it very clear from the beginning of the show he did not want to leave his hometown and his career. 

“I have some very strong roots there. I don’t want to relocate. I have a career in Austin.”

Welcome home Brad, Emily, and Ricki.
