News, Reviews & Commentary on Lesbian and Bisexual women in Entertainment and the Media

Cat Cora

Just stopped by for my daily dose of After Ellen, and my jaw literally dropped reading Best. Lesbian. Week. Ever - Cat Cora is gay? I really, really had no clue! Am I the only one who didn't see this one coming? Think I need to upgrade my radar...

 

Shock aside, this is really exciting! Always liked her (sometimes I watch Food Network for reasons other than, well...food!) And the fact that she's married with kids, and posing with her partner like it is the most natural thing in the world (as it should be!), is just really cool.

 

What a great way to start the day! :D

 

Edit: did some Cat Cora googling tonight and came across something very interesting...she pulled a Rachael Ray appearing all hot in FHM!

I knew it!

But I was not sure.  I agree with you it is great to see her with her family. ^_^

Never really in...

I guess Cat was never really in the closet. In her book, Cooking from the Hip, she first and foremost thanks Jennifer for her love and support. It was pretty well-known in the foodie world I think, but as she's been gaining popularity, it appears her personal life will become more foregrounded (as it usually does with budding fame, I suppose). Glad to see that she's getting recogition!

I always thought she was a little tomboyish, but in a straight way (!). She looks extremely comfortable in that photo with her partner and kids, so she must have been out for some time. Guess she just didn't feel the need to yell it from a rooftop! :D

Cat Cora

Awesome!  I had an idea as well -- Okay, well, I was hoping more than anything.  Best part -- More AfterEllen Iron Chef watchers to discuss the show with!

Cat Cora, Family??

Fo Sho!

Now if only Giada DeLaurentiis was!

All kidding aside, I saw Chef's Story featuring Cat on public television a few months back.  They repeat the episodes every so often, so check your local listings! :)

Rachael Ray OD

I crushed on Rachael Ray once, before she became Oprah's protege. Now there's just too much of her everywhere...

 

Nigella Lawson is kinda sassy..?

 

We need more women chefs to talk about! :D

I had no idea either!

Then again, my gaydar was always focused on her sous chef, Elizabeth, so I never actually took notice of Cat...

cat cora hrc award

I didn't notice any coverage of Cat being honored with the HRC's Hero Award. There are some pics floating around of Cat and her partner at the ceremony. Anyone catch her speech or anything like that? It seems she's becoming more and more visible and vocal.

Patient: There's like this longing ... this pull. I mean, does that make me, you know, like, some kind of...?

Maeby: Homosexual.

i KNEW it. lol.

Cat is one of my favorite chef's, ripping it up on Iron Chef: America (does anyone remember the Japanese one's with english dubbing?? they were soooo funny, oh man)

yeah, on the Giada note, DAMN she is so freaking hot. it frustrates me that she's so skinny though. doesn't she eat anything she cooks??? i just can't trust a chef who is that skinny! lol.

Nigella Lawson is hot too.
