Amuse-Biatch Photoessay: Padma Lakshmi Does Her Best with Wardrobe Choices to Make Sure That It *Is* Jacques Pépin’s Last Meal
























No wonder the poor man kept looking to his left.














It reminds us of a terrible joke one of our high school teachers told us from his Mormon missionary days in France, and that Jacques might know: Pourquoi un soutien-gorge est-il comme le paradis? Parce que les seins y sont. (Why is a bra like Paradise? Because that’s where the breasts are.). It turns on the fact that the French word for saints, “saints” is pronounced very much like the French word for breasts, “seins.”

Anyway, Padma, for God’s sake, the man is 73. Oh wait, never mind, that’s her target age range.

Still, you’ll have to fight Carla, since she and Jacques are like this.

OK used this joke already, but...
She was showing that Fabio's chicken was done.

Putting Padma and Nipples in the same paragraph will bring you lots of visitors if you're hooked to google-search. I wrote a Haiku about them and was bombarded from Bombay.

If we're going to speak French, I would prefer that we work "grand tetons" into the conversation.

But thanks for the lovely Padma pics anyway!

Is it me, or does anyone else think it's odd that we have a Top Chef set in NYC, and who never appeared as a guest judge, not even once: Tony Bourdain.

Look, Anonymous, I like Bourdain as much as anyone on the planet. But you choose *this topic* to make your point?

Get with the program. It's about Padma, nips, and for the girls and gays, Fagio choking his chicken.

Good grief.

Personally, I think of nipples and choking a chicken when I see Bourdain.
