As the winner of NBC’s “The Celebrity Apprentice,” country star John Rich earned more than $1.4 million for St Jude Children's Research Hospital last year. $1.4 million! And Saturday night at the St Jude Country Cares for Kids Seminar in Memphis, we got to see John Rich being honored by one of his heroes for his incredible efforts to help the kids at St Jude. He received the inaugural Randy Owen "Angels Among Us" award, and was almost speechless, pretty good for a songwriter, actually!

Thank you, John Rich, for not only mentioning St Jude Hospital more than 140 times during your stint on "Celebrity Apprentice", but just by being a good friend to the kids who need our help on a daily basis just to stay alive. Well done!
