You’ll have to excuse this post. I’m going to be e a little self-indulgent and feature a celebrity crush. Specifically, Padma Lakshmi, who just announced she was leaving Top Chef. I’m a fan of the show and a fan of Padma. She’s smart, empathetic, loves food and looks amazing while sporting some killer outfits. What’s not to love?
If you like food shows, then I’d suggest checking out her Taste the Nation series. I’ll miss her telling chefs to pack their knives and go, but it’s a fine show in its own right.
This is Top Chef shot of Padma sourced from a Bravo TV Slideshow.
Plus, she ended up marrying (and subsequently divorced) Salman Rushdie, which gives people like myself, who perhaps will only be a model for ‘before’ pictures, a sliver of hope perhaps 😜
Perhaps one could argue that that very marriage was the springboard for her career enabling her to move on from modeling, but hopefully that train of thought is overly cynical.
Regardless, she remains beautiful
I’m not sure that marrying an intellectual highbrow novelist, most famous for having a fatwa being put on his head, is all that great a career move for a top model! It’s not like he’s landing big movie deals or showing up at the met gala 🙂

Interesting debate, is there such a thing as bad publicity?
