Nigella Lawson’s Critics in Race to the Bottom

nigella-1.jpgThe NY Post gossip pages are reporting that producers for sexy Food Network commando Nigella Lawson will no longer show her on camera below the waist because she “has waaaay overeaten”.

“The result is a butt like a Budweiser horse,” sniped one detractor.

That would be a clydesdale, you devilish detractor.

All of this might be newsworthy — in that alternate universe where stories about the bum size of a woman approaching 50 is news — if it were not for the fact that London’s Daily Mail served up pretty much the same story (including the photo at right) in late 2007. It featured this quip:

TV critics claim her new series incorporates “scenes of gluttony not seen since the golden age of the Cookie Monster”.

Well bra-effin-vo! It’s a hell of a lot better than scenes of boredom not seen since the mythical age of Veggie Monster, let me tell you.

Repel the Nigella-hating by showing a little love to Nigella Feasts and Nigella Express.

    Think of all the plain skinnys and plain fatties. Nigella’s luscious. Good on her, flaunting her bottom and tum. Certainly obesity is a health hazard, but objecting in terms of visual appeal is not on. WE like her.
