Which Cheftestant Used the Services of a Texas Henry Higgins?
























From The Dallas Morning News:

The Voice and Speech Trainers Association...estimates that a third of its members now work with the general public rather than sticking with actors and voiceover artists.

"I've trained doctors. I've trained CEOs. I've even trained one of the contestants on Top Chef," said Bettye Zoller, a Dallas-based voice coach....

"They may not admit it, but a lot of very successful people have gotten voice coaching...."

Well, since this is in Dallas, our first guesses are Casey Thompson or Tre Wilcox from Season 3, but of course we don't know. If any of you, possums, has a tip about this, feel free to email us. Discretion guaranteed.

Amuse-Biatch Guessing Game: The Lee Anne Wong Blind Item


















Well, possums, we’re always suckers for a guessing game, and Season 1 contestant and Top Chef culinary producer Lee Anne Wong has a nice and not too taxing one in an interview she did with Zagat (though we must say she looks awfully thin in the accompanying photograph; don’t go overboard now, Lee Anne). Aside from taking the blame for last season’s Scallopgate (just how many people are going to fall on their sword over this?), Lee Anne drops this little bit:

I always tell the smart [cheftestants] to remember that the cameras are always rolling. Top Chef is a stepping-stone and an opportunity to find out the blood and guts of yourself as a cook, and also who you are as a person. The ones who listen to what the judges have to say and move forward usually have a better chance of keeping in the public’s good favor. Every now and then you get a contestant who believes too much in their own hype, and then they self-implode. It’s up to you to figure out who I’m talking about….

So, possums, whom do you think she means? Guess away in the comments section.
