LOS ANGELES, Dec. 1 (UPI) -- Actor Gary Busey, rapper Flavor Flav and rocker Dee Snider are to star in the upcoming U.S. reality series "Celebrity Wife Swap," ABC said Thursday.

Also set to trade spouses for a week are Evangelical pastor Ted Haggard, former child stars Tracey Gold and Tina Youthers, singer Carnie Wilson, wrestler Mick Foley, actor-model Antonio Sabato Jr., and comedienne Niecy Nash, UsMagazine.com reported.

The series is scheduled to premiere next month with the first of five hourlong episodes.

"The two moms are given the chance to see how another celebrity raises their children and deals with life in the spotlight, while allowing both couples the opportunity to rediscover why they love each other and decided to get together in the first place," ABC said in a statement issued to UsMagazine.com. "It's a mind-blowing experiment that will change their lives forever."
