She's Doing A Sitcom?

Filed under: TV News

wenn-pank1l.jpg

Who thought that giving Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi a sitcom is a good idea? We refer you to her bit part in the tragically horrendous flick Glitter to deter you at once!

Variety is reporting that the pretty face has penned a deal with the Peacock for a half-hour comedy sitcom about " a woman working in the culinary world." At the moment, Padma and executive producer Charlie Corwin are still kicking around ideas.

If they want to waste their money, be our guest. But someone should turn on Top Chef every once in awhile and take a good, hard look at this girl's personality. When they realize she doesn't have any, then they'll cancel this thing ASAP.

Will U watch this sitcom?

      AND NOTHING WRONG WITH GLITTER”

      your an ass, I love her.

      pariah was the fuck up in glitter, to everyone else it was just a temp job.

      I hate looking at that friggin scar on her arm that she's always showing off.

      She has the presence of cardboard and watching grass grow is a more captivating experience.



    5. 5

      interesting scar :S



    6. 6

      did she burn her right cooking..



    7. 7

      that's pretty wormy! i like the glitter!



    8. 8

      def not.

      Re: Canadiana717 – I guess she should wear long sleeve dresses all the time??? Cause that would make more sense??? What are all the other pretty women showing off when they wear the same dress??? You're being ridiculous. It's a nasty scar and she's brave to let it be seen because of people like you who make stupid comments when she dresses like everyone else.



    10. 10

      no, it was a car accident.
      I have worked with her before and she said when she was young, it almost killed her. And now she wears it with pride, in the fact that she is alive today in spite of it.



    11. 11

      Ummmmmm…Hell NO!



    12. 12

      One of the few time I agree with the fatso. Padma has ZERO personality, and seems to have mush mouth syndrome to boot.

      It won't make it past the pilot.



    13. 13

      It does not take away from the fact she is a pretty woman.



    14. 14

      What's wrong with her arm?



    15. 15

      SILK!!!
      LOL, that was her name in Glitter!!



    16. 16

      She's beautiful…but boring. I can't imagine she could deliver comedic lines with any aplomb. She's no Kathy Griffin…or 1/2 a Kathy Griffin for that matter



    17. 17

      her personality is that she is an attractive woman who likes her food and her carls jr! thats probably it…kind of annoying



    18. 18

      I'd watch at least the first episode. Only because Padma's a doll and that scar is hotness.



    19. 19

      She looks like she almost lost her arm. I like her. She doesn't yell catch-phrases at you as she cooks.



    20. 20

      beautiful gir….zero personality….still beautiful though



    21. 21

      I think she is kinda dull, very pretty but dull…



    22. 22

      I LOOOOOVE her! I like her scar too….it's cool. It almost looks like a tattoo. She really owns it.



    23. 23

      Oh god it will be a terrible 30 minute show about a cardboard cut out with a hideous scar that she constantly talks about.



    24. 24

      ouch… i like top chef and she is wayyy better than billy joel's ex!!



    25. 25

      She's a camelface that got famous by fucking Salman Rushdie and breaking up his 3rd marriage. She was a self-proclaimed model who never was on any covers EVER or in any runway shows - ever and bullshitted her way into Top Chef. She's useless. That show will NEVER EVER see the light of day.



    26. 26

      Re: Gumbie – Funny… I've never seen a pic of her wearing long sleeves..EVER.



    27. 27

      Although that's not her best photo, she's still amazingly hot! And I enjoy her on Top Chef, if she weren't on it I probably wouldn't watch it.



    28. 28

      Re: Dev1lshgrl

      It's okay to dislike her but whoa, that's a lot of hate. I'm guessing that you Salman Rushdie's third wife.



    29. 29

      seriously guys? cover it up? that's like forcing a cancer patient to wear a wig. she wears it proud. rock on!



    30. 30

      Na! Reality is sooo much better!



    31. 31

      She actually has an awesome personality when not on top chef… When she was on Chelsea lately she was a completely different person in a good way!

      Love her on Top Chef



    33. 33

      She's so gross & oily. Plus, she had the biggest sideburns on the planet! This combined with her monotone, mouthful-of-shit sounding voice will send a sitcom into cancellation within weeks. Did anyone see her on a talkshow where she was a judge of some cooking? She was shoveling food into her giant craw & then licking Every Single Finger when she was done snorting her food down! Then she picked up some berries to decorate a cake!!! I doubt anyone ate that cake after that disgusting display! I was gagging left & right!



    34. 34

      It could be entertaining. At least it won't be another police drama or hospital drama… I swear that's all that's ever on when I search the channels. I'm willing to give it a try.

      I like her…she is better than the chick on top chef masters.



    36. 36

      You would think they could do some kind of laser resurfacing or something. She pretty though. No wouldn't watch it..



    37. 37

      HELL NO!!!!!!!!



    38. 38

      What the fuck is wrong with Glitter. I like Glitter and ppl been tearing into that movie for years.



    39. 39

      The hilarious/mind boggling irony is that the producers wanted to replace the expressionless, deadpan Katie Lee Joel on Top Chef with the more "lively" (but in actuality just as boring, wooden and monotone) Padma Lakshmi. Fücking retarded TV execs…



    40. 40

      i love padma on top chef shes stunning ands shes a good host but i cant see being a very good actress



    41. 41

      I WANNA LICK HER SCAR
