Tori Spelling and Rachael Ray do the Potty Dance
Tori Spelling appeared on the Rachael Ray show where she taught Rachel how to do the potty training dance.
It’s nice to see Tori is immersing herself in motherhood.
Rachael Ray Show Sued by Former Accountant

The Rachael Ray TV cooking show is being sued by a former accountant, Aaron Ferguson. Ferguson claims he was forced out of his job due to his eating disorder, and is asking for $1 million in damages.
Ferguson says in his lawsuit, filed in Manhattan’s state Supreme Court, that he has suffered from anorexia for about six years. Ferguson says his supervisor repeatedly exhibited "hostile behavior" and made "vile," discriminatory and hurtful comments. The comments included, "Anorexics are sick in the head," and, "Anorexics should not be able to work."
Ferguson’s lawyer, William H. Kaiser, said Thursday:
"The things that were said in front of my client were hurtful, and once they knew he had a problem with it they should have stopped."
Ferguson said he began working in July 2007 for CBS Television Distributions Inc., a CBS Corp. unit, and the producer and owner of the "Rachael Ray" show. After he complained about his treatment, he says, he was "forced out" in October 2007. Kaiser said the firing was retaliation: "He was punished for complaining."
The lawsuit, filed late Wednesday, names CBS Corp., CBSTD Inc. and three employees of the show as defendants. Rachael Ray is not named as a defendant.
There’s probably a lot more to this than what Ferguson claims, like maybe he couldn’t show up for work because he was in a coma from not eating too many times, so they fired him.
Rachel Ray Dunkin Donuts Scarf Controversy

Rachel Ray made a commercial for Dunkin Donuts, and a stealth stylist slipped an offensive scarf around her neck, that the educated viewers instantly recognized. Those Islamic terrorists are thumbing their noses at us again. Michelle Malkin explains:
The keffiyeh, for the clueless, is the traditional scarf of Arab men that has come to symbolize murderous Palestinian jihad. Popularized by Yasser Arafat and a regular adornment of Muslim terrorists appearing in beheading and hostage-taking videos, the apparel has been mainstreamed by both ignorant (and not-so-ignorant) fashion designers, celebrities, and left-wing icons.
Three years ago, pop singer Ricky Martin donned a traditional red-checked keffiyeh with the phrase “Jerusalem is ours” inscribed in Arabic. Apologizing for his obliviousness, Martin said: “I had no idea that the kaffiyeh scarf presented to me contained language referring to Jerusalem, and I apologize to anyone who might think I was endorsing its message.”
Dunkin Donuts responded to complaints about the scarf:
“Thank you for expressing your concern about the Dunkin’ Donuts advertisement with Rachael Ray. In the ad that you reference, Rachael is wearing a black-and-white silk scarf with a paisley design that was purchased at a U.S. retail store. It was selected by the stylist for the advertising shoot. Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we will no longer use the commercial.”
Dunkin Donuts received so many complaints about the scarf, they pulled the ad. Michelle Malkin commented on the decision:
It’s refreshing to see an American company show sensitivity to the concerns of Americans opposed to Islamic jihad and its apologists. Too many of them bend over backwards in the direction of anti-American political correctness. Naturally, liberal commentators on the Internet are now up in arms over Dunkin Donut’s decision to yank the ad and mock anyone who expresses concern over the keffiyeh’s symbolism.
It’s just a scarf, the clueless keffiyeh-wearers scoff. Would they say the same of fashion designers who marketed modified Klan-style hoods in Burberry plaid as the next big thing? Fashion statements may seem insignificant, but when they lead to the mainstreaming of violence—unintentionally or not–they matter. Ignorance is no longer an excuse. In post-9/11 America, vigilance must never go out of style.
Rachel Ray, and all celebrities, need to be very careful when they endorse a product. It could hurt their career. Look at Oprah. Her TV show ratings, and sales of her magazine and other products, have declined significantly since she supported Barack Obama, and he became the center of a nasty controversy involving his spiritual adviser Reverend Jeremiah Wright.
Rosie Returns to TV

The Rosie O’Donnell Show will return for just one episode on May 2, thanks to Rachel Ray.
Ray will transform her show into Rosie’s show for one day.
Dumbest idea ever.
Rachel Ray Gets Pie to the Face by Food Blog

Rachael Ray is the spokeswoman for Dunkin Donuts, but refused to drink their coffee while filming a commercial for them. Grub Street reports:
"… she took one sip of her Dunkin’ Donuts coffee, yelled "What is this sh-t? Get me MY coffee," and would not continue until she was given "her" coffee — i.e., Starbucks."
"Never happened," says Ray’s publicist, who called the report "stupid" and "ridiculous."
The rep added: "That’s like Michael Jordan wearing Adidas to a Nike shoot."
A spokesperson for Dunkin Donuts is calling shenanigans on the story as well. "I was there for the entire shoot and I assure you that the story reported on New York magazine’s website today is totally false. We enjoy working with Rachael, and we are proud to have her as our brand ambassador."
It seems the food blogging world is so boring they have been resorting to making things up just to stir up some drama.
