Celebrity chef Paula Deen reveals she has type 2 diabetes
Celebrity southern chef Paula Deen announced Tuesday that she has been diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes and then — seemingly without missing a beat — she added that she’s working with a pharmaceutical company to promote the medication she is using to treat the disease.
I’m reluctant to bash what seems to be a nice old lady. Even if her supporting cast is beginning to look like the Hills Have Eyes–and her food a True Buffet of Horrors. A recent Hawaii show was indistinguishable from an early John Waters film. And the food on a par with the last scene of Pink Flamingos. But I’d like to see her mad. Like her look-alike, Divine in the classic, Female Trouble. Paula Deen on a Baltimore Killing Spree would be something to see. Let her get Rachael in a headlock–and it’s all over.
