Teresa, is it the Rachel Ray show on ABC or Rachel Ray on Food Network?:confused: I'd like to check it out!
 
Not a fan, KG?

In the interest of full disclosure, I'll admit that I'm not a fan. I think she's overexposed. Along with some other things I have issues with.
 
I use to love her 30min meals and $40 a day show but I agree, she is way over exposed now with her talk show!
 
And her pictures, that I found out about on here. I'm not judging her, because that's not what I'm about, but it does make me look at her a little differently, I guess I can say I'm guarded now! I just see that she is a little different than I thought and all though I still like her, I don't know that I support her as much. I just don't see how anyone could have pics taken like that..... NO they weren't pornographic, but they had a lot of sexual over tones, and I wouldn't let my son see them!:thumbdown:
 
I'm a fun, but then again, since I only get broadcast tv I haven't seen too much of her. I do have issues with the way she does a few things, but I enjoy her daytime show most of the time.

No, I'm a small air conditioner.

I saw that on a Nabisco display in a little grocery store in rural Indiana and it just cracked me up!

ooohhhh what pictures? I wanna see!
 
never mind - I googled it...:eek:
 
It is a show on daytime on NBC and I noticed the apron too.
 
Her daytime show is syndicated. So in some markets it's on the ABC affiliate, but may be on the affiliates for other networks in other markets. That's also why it's not on at the same time everywhere. Same as Oprah.

Same thing happened to me when I googled "Rachael Ray photos" then I added the word "racy" and came to the FHM pics. Wowza -- that's a dangerous way to cook. Hope she used our spatter guard to protect her "assets"!:rolleyes:

Isn't FHM a men's mag anyway?

I like her. I think she has inspired alot of people to cook instead of buy takeout. I have some of her cookbooks. She makes it look easy and that's all that matters to me!
 
I also like her recipes. She seems to have a simple way of making anything you want. Sometimes the things are way out there for me and my family, but overall we like what she cooks.

As for the "racy" pictures you can see even less than that at the beach. You have to understand I also have no boys at home now. The youngest one married this summer, and the older one living with his girlfriend for 3 years now. My older son's girlfriend loves some of the things she cooks and it has inspired her to cook more and eat out less.
 
I have seen the pics and do not agree with them. But that was at the beginning of her career and I know people can change, so, I decided for myself that she could be a totally different person now.

I saw the advertisement for the Cook Off too and noticed the PC aprons. I think those are entries from the past b/c they are asking for entries for this year, but then of course I do not know that for sure.
 
I don't have a problem with the pictures, like it was said before, I've seen less on the beach. I don't even think those would be censored on TV. If I had the body to pull off pics. like that dh would be a happy man. Too bad for him!!!:p

I like her mostly because she seems "real". I also love the way she always adds "or you could use this instead..."
 
They are obviously from a long time ago. When I saw them, I went :eek:, but I think its because her butt is even bigger than I thought it was! A lot of celebrities have had similar pictures taken for Playboy. They're clothed, but barely. You just might not know about it because you don't read it.

A little secret...the best men's magazine out there is Cosmopolitan.
 
I don't pick Cosmo up very often. It doesn't really address my lifestyle. The Furry Guy likes to look through that one, though, to see . . . um, how should I put this . . . how many of the models are cold.
 
I saw the lady in the apron as well
