Sari Excuse: Padma Lakshmi’s Ex-Husband Says Women Only Marry for the Wedding Dress








‘Tis a pity, possums, that Top Chef chose not to do Restaurant Wars this season, else whoever was running front of the house could have said, of Sir Salman Rushdie, “Bitter, party of one.”

You see, possums, just in time for the broadcast of Wedding Wars (and the new Sex and the City film), Padma Lakshmi’s ex-husband is accusing women of Rushdie-ing into marriage:

“It’s strange, given that I’ve been married four times, but I actually don’t think marriage is necessary….Girls like it, especially if they’ve never been married before – it’s the dress. Girls want a wedding, they don’t want a marriage. If only you could have weddings without marriages.”

Let’s see now, possums. Whom could Sal be thinking of? Ah yes. Before Salman Rushdie, Padma had “never been married before.”

Well, that makes sense. Padma married him because she wanted to wear a wedding dress! Of course. Because when you’ve been married four times, it is indisputable that it’s not you who’s at fault; it’s the women, of course.

So let’s take a look at photos from Padma’s wedding, and you tell us, possums, if the schmatte was worth the marriage to her “distant uncle.”

a wedding could also be an excuse to wear that old Nehru jacket you bought in 1968 when your bride wasn't born yet.

Padma and Salmon are a disturbing looking couple. And I don't care if he does have a fatwa on head (or just a fat head judging from the pictures), he's luckier than Tommy Lee in the marriage department.

I'd like to see what he traded her in for because looking like he does, even with the whole author thing going for him, he's not going to do much better than a Padma. Prove me wrong...

I could be mistaken (highly likely, considering it's me) but I thought my TIVO labeled next week's episode "Restaurant Wars." So it could still happen. Or not.

Ok when they married wasn't she still rockin' the 'model' title? Model ad in "people PAY me to wear pretty dresses"? For some reason... I'm thinkin' it wasn't the dress.

I mean, the dresses were fierce (especially the ivory one in the bottom pic), but not I'd-marry-Salman-Rushdie-for-them fierce.

I agree with buzz kill on this. Just looking at the photos of them together creeps me out. I can't figure out why she married him. No, it wasn't for the dress.

She married him for the oldest reason that young, pretty women marry old, fat men...M-O-N-E-Y, and in her case, I think also a hunger for fame. She used ole Rushdie to "Rush" herself into a publishing deal, even though she can't write a decent sentence. Anyone catch her unedited "blog" on Bravo the first year she was on? Rife with gramatical errors, misspellings, non sequiturs for weeks, not to mention several snarky comments about her lamentable epistolary skills or lack thereof.

Then suddenly, the blog fisappeared, only to be replaced by a video blog where she blathered aimlessly, mostly about her sexual fantasies. One notable webisode featured her thoughts about fellow judge, Gail Simmons. Then that disappeared.

Then this year, suddenly a well-written, gramatically correct Padma blog appears. Either she went back to school (doubtful), grew a real brain (even more doubtful) or someone at Bravo has finally had the good sense to employ a real writer to screen her offerings before they are posted.

And as for the dresses in her photos, I wouldn't wear any of them, but I would like to have the gold in that hairpiece she's wearing. And seeing as how Indian officials wanted to jail a poor woman who was set upon and kissed in public by randy Richard Gere, doesn't Padma's seemingly endless supply of "nekkid" pictures violate about 50 of their laws? How come she gets away with it and that other gal couldn't?

Oh, wait. This is America! Where the motto concerning women is, "The nakeder the better."

Going to find my hair shirt now,

Go Fat Cat Go! Fat Cat called it right-FAME! Padma is BEYOND boring and needed old man Rudshi. We wouldn't even know who this broad was if not for her ex-husband. It's not the 1980's when people cared about models. Rudshi knew why she was marrying him, but he didn't care. How much you want to bet there will be a wife number 5?
