Guys: Is TV chef Anne Burrell attractive?

Would you date her? Take her to bed? Take her home to meet Mama? Or is she just too Out There, goofy, over-the top? Are her energy, enthusiasm and cute patter darling and endearing or just annoying?

Followup question:
Who are the attractive female TV chefs TO YOU?
Rachael?
Giada?
Nigella?
Paula?
Spice Goddess?
Mrs. Neely?
Sandra Lee?
Others?

A little too gym-teacherish for my tastes.

As for the most attractive female chefs, I’d have to go with Giada and Nigella. An honorable mention also for Cat Cora.

I’m not into that at all. The hair alone screams “high maintenance.”

Not sure who most of the others are.

Not sure, it’s hard to see through the hair and ugly (IMHO) dress. I’d have to say no, based on the picture you linked to. She looks like she’s 50.
Rachel, maybe. I’d say, yes, but that voice might get to me after a while. She still seems fun though. She needs a better wardrobe person. She has no figure and she needs to stop tucking her shirts into her jeans.

Giada…yup.

Paula. Sorry, maybe if I was 30 years older and grew up in the deep south, but as a 30 year old mid-westerner, she’s a bit much for me.

Spice Goddess, never heard of her.

Sandra Lee. Only seen her show once, no real opinion one way or the other, kinda reminded me (IIRC) of Bree Hodge, a bit to perfect, kind of like a Stepford Wife.

Mrs Neely. Again, only seen the show once, IIRC she seemed really, really clingy, but that was a long time ago.

Of what you listed, take to bed/meet the parents/marry, it would be a toss up between Rachael and Giada. I think Giada would get bored with me (I’m not a traveler), but I’d probably go nuts listening to Rachael’s voice. And since this is my fantasy, Giada wins.

I think she’s quirky attractive but I couldn’t take the personality full time.

As far as the others:

Nigella while being awesome hot also seems a very warm person.

Giada’s hard to figure out.

Rachael is probably the most down to earth but that voice could grate Parmesan.

Sandra Lee is scary, I keep picturing her pubes matching the tablescape.

Neely, scream and run away fast. Very, very fast.

I never really thought about it actually. I guess I always got lesbian vibe, and never went past that far.

Looking at that picture on the OP she is pretty hot. Not smoking but maybe an 8. She doesn’t look as good in non-posed real moving type stuff, but still fairly attractive.

Giada can be very hot, but some of the time I spend my time trying to figure out why something is a little odd in her appearance, but I can never put my finger on i, but I can’t stopping looking long enough to enjoy it.

Sandra Lee reminds me of a plastic faced smiling bitch-mom from suburbia.

The though of Rachael makes me cringe in horror. She is so big into being cutsey in public I can only imagine how excruciatingly saccharine and unbearable she must be in a private relationship.

Nigella seems like she would be… interesting, like in a leather and handcuffs sort of way.

Neely seems clearly the best one to have as a drinking buddy, she seems like fun, but not a huge trun on.

The current crop of cooking shows just really don’t inspire happy penis feelings in general for me.

No.

That’s an odd pair. I see Giada as skinny and sharp-featured, especially in relation to that jaw. None of that is good for me. Nigella is just fine.

Anne Burrell? No.

Nigella? Oh HELL YES.

I’m not a guy, but I can’t believe this thread has gotten so far with no mention of the adorable Aarti Sequeira.

Don’t know her, never heard of her. Based solely on a google search, I’d have sex with her. Not really my ‘type’, but not unattractive. Anyway, I’m a guy.

Finally, proof that if you put Guy Fieri in a dress I still won’t be attracted to him.

I’d party with Aarti.

Aarti was the winner of last year’s food network star competition, so she’s not well known yet.

IMHO the thing about Giada’s appearance that is off is that her head is disproportionately large for her body. They don’t match. If you wanted to make a Giada bobble-head, you wouldn’t have to change the proportions.

I think Guy has the best personality of all the cooking boys. However the best personality/looks/sexiness combo is Aaron of “Big Daddy’s House.” He was also a food network star contest winner. Not sure if he is still on.

I don’t often see her show but Claire Robinson is right up there.

Ingrid Hoffman of “Simply Delicioso.”

Another pic
And another

I wouldn’t say she is unattractive, but she’s not what I’d consider attractive, either. Does that make sense? Maybe if I were a little older, I’d find her more attractive.

And to be nice to those of us who do not (get to) watch the Food Network that often, I’ll include full names and pictures:

Rachael Ray: hotter in pictures than on TV. She’s more MILF-y.
Giada De Laurentis : Funny face, great bod. Never seen her, so can’t judge her personality.
Nigella Lawson: Beautiful woman, but more in the TV Rachael Ray category.
Paula Deen: Too old for me.
BalSpice GoddessArneson: Spicy is right!
Mrs. Geena Neely: Pretty in some pics, not others
Sandra Lee (nee Christiansen): Attractive in a 1970s way.

Of those, Giada is the sexiest, followed by the Spice Queen. Freakily, all of them, if you type the names given in the OP, will be the first people with that name on Google, with the exception of “Mrs. Neally.” It’s not so weird that the more uncommon names show up, but apparently Paula Deen is the most famous Paula, and Rachael Ray the most famous Rachael. Those are common names.

Also, there is a theme to the pictures, if you want to guess.

NETA: pretend this is linked under Christiansen above.

Anne Burrell isn’t the best looking, but her personality is attractive. Rachael Ray is the opposite; her personality is a total turnoff. Nigella is the total package. Sunny Anderson also has looks and personality. I find Alex Guarnaschelli strangely attractive.

Never watched her show, but she looks a bit like a troll doll.

Don’t know her name, but isn’t there a tv chef who is Indian or Pakistani? She’s pretty hot.
