Rachael Ray’s Food Going to the Dogs

She’s already gone public admitting that she is more interested in raising “four-legged kids than ones with two legs” so I suppose it should come as no surprise that celebrity chef Rachael Ray is expanding her culinary empire to include gourmet dog food. The super cook turned TV talk show host just launched a charity-driven line of dog foods based on recipes she has created for her beloved pet pit bull, Isaboo. The Food Network star is no stranger to designing meals for all types of eaters and she says she has no doubt that your pooch will gobble up … Continue reading →

Subtitle: Much Ado about a Single Scarf The big wigs at Dunkin’ Donuts have caved to the pressure and finally yanked an online ad featuring its celebrity spokesperson Rachael Ray wearing a fringed black-and-white scarf. The neckpiece was at the center of a debate between critics such as conservative commentator Michelle Malkin and Dunkin’ Donut execs. Malkin and hundreds like her complained to the donut chain that the scarf Ray wore in the ad offers symbolic support for Muslim extremism and terrorism. The coffee and baked goods company pulled the ad featuring the popular celebrity chef holding an iced coffee … Continue reading →

Laila Ali sure knows how to milk her 15 minutes of fame. The former “Dancing with the Stars” finalist has yet another new job—–she’s joining CBS’s “The Early Show” as a contributing correspondent starting next week.

Meredith Returns To “The View” and Rachael Ray Wants To Taste Your Cooking

The good news: Meredith Vieira is retuning to ABC’s “The View.” The bad news: She’s only staying for a day. Actually, she’s only scheduled to be on for one segment, but here’s hoping it will be a long one. Meredith Vieira… remember her? She was the daytime chatfest’s moderator for nine years before she left for her current gig at NBC’s “Today” show. Vieira replaced Katie Couric who left her cushy job for the anchor chair at the CBS Evening News. On “The View” Vieira was replaced by Rosie O’Donnell who was replaced by Whoopi Goldberg. Got that? The sorely … Continue reading →

Ellen to Use New Emmy as Wedding Cake Topper

She was joking… about the cake topper… not about the wedding. Ellen DeGeneres has another reason to celebrate today. In addition to being “over the moon” about her upcoming nuptials to partner Portia de Rossi, the actress walked away with her fourth trophy as outstanding talk-show host, at last night’s 35th annual Daytime Emmy Awards. And according to DeGeneres, don’t look for her to pull an Oprah and take herself of contention for future statuettes. “I’m not going to take my name out,” DeGeneres deadpanned with reporters backstage. “Oprah has made so many bad choices. Look at her career.” While … Continue reading →

You’re So Vain

No, it wasn’t the theme of celebrity chef Rachael Ray’s latest fundraiser, but it was one of the songs superstar guest Carly Simon belted out for the likes of Bill Clinton, Bobby Flay, Mario Batali, and Joy Behar. Who knew there would come a day that little Rachael Ray could gather a former president, famous TV chefs, comedians and a slew of actors under the same roof? And let’s not forget Grammy award-winning singer Simon who took the stage to belt out a four-song set, including her smash hit “You’re So Vain.” So what gives? The big event was a … Continue reading →

McCain Cooking Up Controversy and “The Boss” Backs Barack

In a previous blog I discussed first lady Laura Bush’s upcoming gig as guest host on NBC’s “Today” show. Now it appears ABC is following suit by inviting Cindy McCain to join the ladies on “The View” – for a day. The wife of Republican candidate John McCain is scheduled to serve as a co-host on the daytime chatfest next Monday… and resident Republican host Elisabeth Hasselbeck couldn’t be more thrilled. Frankly, I’m surprised Cindy McCain is appearing on the show when her husband was there just last week. (John McCain has been on “The View” four times since it … Continue reading →

Popular Chef Dies

The culinary world is in mourning today following the death of Friedman Paul Erhardt. The German-born cook better known as “Chef Tell” was 63. I remember watching Chef Tell on “Regis and Kathie Lee.” He was a fixture on the talk show and his jolly personality complimented the sardonic banter shared by Regis and Kathie Lee who really had no place in the kitchen. Regis regularly poked fun at Erhardt’s thick German accent, but he certainly wasn’t the only one to do so. Erhardt was the subject of many comedy skits on “Saturday Night Live” and he also served as … Continue reading →
