Alison Roman slams Chrissy Teigen and Marie Kondo in interview

[Anonymous]

I think Alison Roman's recipes are fine (although as an Indian woman, I think her "chickpea stew" is pretty terrible and extremely bland), but I have no tolerance for anyone who tries to get more publicity by creating drama/feuds with people more famous than them. I mean, come on, it's VERY obvious she did this on purpose to get her name in the news. How many new followers is she going to get because there are people out there who find Chrissy Tiegen super annoying? Thousands. Personally I think Chrissy Tiegen should have just ignored this whole thing and Roman wouldn't have gotten the publicity that she craves.

I don’t see Chrissy trashing other women for their success. Alison Roman messed up big time.

Gotta call BS. Celebs are not chefs. Alison Roman is a trained chef. Lynne Rossetto Kasper wrote her own cookbooks and didn’t whore herself out with a Target line built by Chinese child laborers like Chrissy. She has no moral authority here.

Looks like Alison found this thread.

Nope. I don’t particularly like Alison Roman, either. But I am skeeved generally by the mass consumerism of the American public, the food network, and pseudo-celeb chefs. Chrissy Teigen is not a chef - her food is crappy - and this is the same critique I would make of Sandra Lee, Rachel
Ray and sundry. Marcella Hazan, she isn’t.

But you are blind to the fact that Roman only called out a certain subset of people. Wake up.

Just curious - who else could she have called out? Serious question.

Um, Gwyneth Paltrow?

Yes, but the point is Alison Roman didn't call out Rachael Ray or Martha Stewart or Sandra Lee or Wolfgang Puck or Gordon Ramsay or Bobby Flay.

Why do you think she went after Tiegen and Kondo and only them?

Because it isn’t 2001 anymore. Those names aren’t relevant to the age group she is trying to stir up. And some of those people are actually chefs, not just attention-grabbing social media personalities.

I think what she said was shtty, but probably not because she has some weird racist fantasy about harming Asian woman. A lot of people cannot stand Chrissy—you think there are no POC in that group? There are.

She did, albeit not as cruelly. Did you only read the Page 6 piece? Click through to the interview.

“ And I do sort of have ambitions to figure out how to channel everything into a site. But I’m really sensitive to oversaturation, again. And does the world need another Goop? It also requires so much money that I would have to take from people that I don’t know.”

That is nothing like what she said about Chrissy Teigen and Marie Kondo, in no small part because it's not a personal attack on Gwyneth Paltrow, just a comment that she's not looking to create a Goop-like business.

She has attacked two non-White successful women so that she can capitalize on their name. Before this interview who knew who this POS woman was?

So, you are both misogynistic and racist? Classy!

Her food isn’t for you. Period. Not everything has to be for you. Unless you are living in the woods in a house that you made by your own hands with supplies you made with your own hands then have several seats. You sitting here on DCUM proves your own hypocrisy. You aren’t better than anyone. In fact, you are worst bc you actually think you are doing something different. Get rid of of everything you consume and purchased then come back (oh wait, then you wouldn’t be able to complain). You and Alison must be BFF.

Your hypocrisy is stunning, Sierra.

She called out several people. She may not have even Crissy Teigen is Asian.

I don’t see any evidence that Alison Roman is a racist, sorry. She and Molly Yeh are close friends. Molly is entirely self-made and can actually cook. And Gordon Ramsay can actually cook.

Yes white lady - racism is a figment of our imagination

I’m a POC who thinks your calling someone a racist for criticizing someone’s cooking is pretty disgusting when POC cannot even go jogging without getting murdered- shows a horrifying lack of perspective.

Ok Allison. Tell Emily she is still hated.

I mean she publicly called Donnie a p*ssy *ss b!tch. Some would think someone that bold wouldn't really care what others thought or said about them. She's been pretty vicious on social when people have been out of pocket and said mean and hurtful things to her. I think in this instance deep down, the comments stung because truthfully... you know how many people who are trained culinary experts and chefs would kill her her opportunities. Like Ayesha steph-didn't-give-me-a-dime Curry, she knows deep down inside that being John Legend's wife has its perks.

That said, Allison Roman's comments were totally uncalled for and especially hurtful. She just didn't need to go there and reveal her deep-seeded resentment for how anyone secures a bag.

Thoughtful comment. Totally agree.
