[quote=Anonymous]She's no more or less a fraud than any of the FN stars, really. I know several personally, and it always amazes me how much of their biography they can selectively enhance. It's not that they are lying exactly, more like buffing the truth to a misleading shine.

Mind you, this almost has to happen for any prodcucer to sit up and take notice. They want that juicy/cliche backstory so viewers immediately connect with them.

FWIW, I'm once removed from a good friend of PW. Said friend cannot speak highly enough of her and her genuine generosity. Granted, not sure how much they were using each other for personal gain but it does sound like PW is a good mentor.

As for her on air personality, I find it hard to watch but I feel this way about all home cooks on camera. And her recipes, while tasty, just aren't on point with the trends that need to be reinforced when it comes to healthful and mindful eating. But sugar and fat sell so most likely this is a choice her producers have made.

In any case, for a blogger to reach her level of success she's had to make a lot of sacrifices, even if it all looks lucky and effortless. I applaud her tenacity even if I think her food and lifestyle are a farce.[/quote]
