Thirteen contestants were given aprons in part one of the premiere of MasterChef.  In part two, Gordon Ramsay, Graham Elliot, and Joe Bastianich continue who will and will not be allowed to continue on in hopes of becoming the next MasterChef.

Each home cook has one hour to prepare his or her best dish and then present it to the judges.


MasterChef Season Three Premiere Part One Recap

I know this week's recaps are a little late, and I'm terribly sorry about that, but I wanted to post them anyway.

Season three of Gordon Ramsey's MasterChef premiered on Monday June 4.

The show began by reminding the 100 contestants what they could win if they were to become this year's MasterChef.  This year the winner of MasterChef will win a cash prize of $250,000, a MasterChef trophy, and will have a cookbook published with the winner's best recipes.

After going around the country, the contestants were narrowed down to 100 of the best home cooks in the United States.  Each home cook had one hour to prepare a dish that they would present the judges to taste.  The judges, who are Gordon Ramsay, Graham Elliot, and Joe Bastianich, tasted each home chef's dish and decided if the individual had what it took to possibly become the next MasterChef.  Those who were selected to go on in the contest were given special MasterChef aprons.

America's Next Top Model British Invasion Recap: Double Elimination

At the beginning of this week's episode, three U.K. girls and two Americans remained in the competition.  After panel where Catherine had been eliminated, the girls return to their "home" as usual.  Laura was feeling pretty good as she won best photo last week.  While Laura appreciated Sophie being happy for her, she tells us that the other girls were just waiting for her to fall.  Laura also made her dislike for Eboni apparent to us again this week, calling her a spoiled brat.

Alisha struggled with being in the bottom two again.  She admitted she doesn't understand what the judges want from her.

The girls had their challenge in Hong Kong this week.  On the way there, Laura talked with the girls about sex, which annoyed them all, especially Alisha.
