Donald Trump has fired Rachel Uchitel before she even appeared in one episode of "The Celebrity Apprentice."  You can't really blame him.  The real estate mogul must've felted jilted when it was announced that Uchitel will be a patient on "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew," stealing much of Trump's reality show thunder.

TMZ reports that Uchitel initially turned down an appearance on "Celebrity Rehab" but changed her mind after producers doubled the offer -- now around $500,000 -- and Dr. Drew met with her personally.  It probably helped that she has a huge crush on him.

It was rumored that Uchitel would be treated for an unspecified pill addiction.  But sources tell Us magazine that she is -- get this -- addicted to love and will be counseled on her relationship woes.  Uchitel is best known for being Tiger Woods' first revealed mistress, and she later admitted to having another adulterous affair with "Bones" star David Boreanaz.

VH1 says Uchitel will be joined on the show by supermodel Janice Dickinson, actor Jeremy London, musician Leif Garrett, oil heir Jason Davis, ex-reality star Jason Wahler and singer Keyshia Cole's mother.
