Aussie chef and Marco Pierre White protege (hope he fares better than The Chopping Block) Curtis Stone has made the cut for season 3 of NBC’s Celebrity Apprentice series, becoming the first food personality to vie for a chance to suckle at Trump’s proverbial teat.

Stone is a reality TV vet, having hosted cooking shows on at least three continents–Surfing the Menu and My Restaurant Rules in Australia, Dinner in a Box in the United Kingdom, and most recently, Take Home Chef here in the U.S.–so he should, at least, be a little more camera-savvy than competitors who’ve been out of the limelight for quite some time (Goldberg? Really?).

Good luck, Curtis.

And remember: never let them see you cry (unless the waterworks will guarantee you immunity/more rations/a shot at being the next Bachelor).
