Real estate tycoon Donald Trump made Tiger Woods' "No. 1 mistress" Rachel Uchitel an offer she could not refuse -- a spot on the next season of hit NBC show "The Celebrity Apprentice," celebrity gossip website TMZ reported Friday.

Trump told the website he personally called Uchitel three weeks ago to ask her her about the program, saying she would be "awesome."

When TMZ phoned Uchitel to see if she would take up Trump's offer she told them, "Absolutely," although NBC has the final say on which celebrities make the final cut.

Uchitel, a former event planner and New York nightclub hostess, was the first woman linked to Woods when sex scandal claims appeared in The National Enquirer last year.

She later hired power attorney Gloria Allred and scheduled a news conference to discuss the claims, but the event was canceled at the last minute for undisclosed reasons.
