Paula Deen Is Nearly Unrecognizable 11 Years After Being Dropped By Food Network

omg those teefs are scary

She looks like Florence Jean Castlebury (Polly Holiday).

She's looked like this for a while, but frankly doesn't look well.

Her teeth look better than she does

She's lost a lot of weight and needs to have her neck tightened up.

She never used enough butter.

Ozempic. If you see her YT episodes, she's often a mess. Drunk and incoherent.

i think she is just old.

did she call some employee "sugar-tits?"

She's an old racist who got cancelled after having a Plantation themed party with black mammies and lawn jockeys.

She looks fine to me.

I remember as a kid that my maternal grandfather somehow came into possession of two concrete lawn jockeys; he took them down to the back-basement (where he had his 'shop' and his stash), painted their faces white, and put them out in the front yard to regale passersby.

She’s straight out of Flannery O’Connor

This is what happens when you can no longer afford a hair/makeup/wardrobe team.

Looks the same

I recognized her right away.

She looks awful.

I read somewhere she has/had cancer.

I always thought she had the worst veneers/implants in show business. As white as a sheet of paper and each one shaped too perfectly. Mary Lou Retton has similar teeth.

Paula just can't help herself. She asks if an Hispanic staff member on Today is from this country.

Wonder how the gay son is doing? Bobby

Her husband won the Ernest Hemingway contest one year at Sloppy Joe’s in Key West. Unfortunately has the same godawful veneers as his wife.

I used to get tired of her airbrushed, wrinkle-free photos on the covers of her books and magazines back then.

[quote]She's an old racist who got cancelled after having a Plantation themed party with black mammies and lawn jockeys.

I'm surprised she found black people who'd work.

Looks like she cooks up a fresh hot batch of Ozempic in her kitchen every morning.

She lost the weight over 5 years ago, but I recall her saying that she had to lose weight because of her Type 2 diabetes.

I wonder if Paula wasn't an OG Ozempic user, as it has been prescribed for people with Type 2 for about 2 decades now. She did lose QUITE a bit of weight, and it seemed to be a quicker loss - people were surprised when she reappeared having shed so much weight.

The older son, Jamie, seems like a nice guy, but he always looks slightly disheveled and weathered. I suspect he's a heavy drinker, but who knows.

“I’m just so sorry y’all. It was a different time, people always said these things…”

Does yah cooter itch Paula? Mine does.

Really? I still recognize her for the racist, backward piece of shit she is. Just more garbage foisted onto the world by Oprah Winfrey (who cannot control their behavior, but does not get nearly enough grief for the rogues gallery of crazy she's platformed).

Is she having a black person eat for her?

That hat looks British.

These days her biscuits and gravy give her anal leakage.

Oily discharge

It’s a revolutionary diet that has led to her transformation. Her meals are limited to suckling on an undernourished ensnared wet nurse.

^enslaved

Is that photo taken from her Gone With Wind fantasy role playing?

Oprah had nothing to do with introducing Paula to the world - that was Gordon from the Food Network who brought Paula to TV and the world.

Ozempic is a hell of a drug

I recognized her.

What happened to her home shopping gig? I haven't seen her on any of those channels in a couple of years. I would always stop and watch, since she was clearly inebriated while hawking air fryers. She would start cackling loudly while her poor co-host would try to explain the payment plan. Or she would force-feed the camera operator a chicken wing: "Here, put this in your pie hole!"

she's an old hag, always was too

Remember when she called Clinton Kelly a turd in the punchbowl because he wouldn't eat her chicken wings?

she's a hag

Her Food Network show had good production values, on par or better than Ina's show. (Trisha Yearwood's and Semi-Homemade Lady's production values were low & cheap!!!) She had a golden retriever padding and puttering around.

What happened to the husband, Michael Groover? He always seems half-crocked, as well.

R30- She was never anything more than a CONFEDERATE CLOWN 🤡

There was a NYT video of her being interviewed by a reporter from the NYT and Paula Deen point to the black background board behind and says ( referring to her black limousine driver) - My driver is as dark as this board.

DUMB HILLBILLY

Why does she deserve a chance at redemption but not Kevin Spacey? Sins are Sins are Sins.

As Carrie famously said, "Forgiveness is forgiveness".

'cause he eats ass, y'all!

She was a almost a parody of the fat, unconcerned about her health, junk food making Southern matron who's oblivious to racism.

She looks like a butched-up version of Lady Bunny.

She's Lady Bunny's younger sister.

Where’s the gay son? Would rather look at him.

he's old too now.

R32 does anyone still wear a ….fascinator?

You're right, R38. I admit, I only knew about Deen's rise to fame in relation to her early appearances on "Oprah". But Oprah STILL doesn't get the deserved grief for Dr. Oz, and Phil McGraw. And Deen is sfill a piece of shit.
