Gordon Ramsay say to Tracey grimshaw? I keep hearing that there's a hubbub about it but I haven't hear what he said. That's a tad irritating :nah:

Quick look and :

Gordon Ramsay criticized Tracy Grimshaw for her looks and sexuality. Ramsay showed his audience a picture of a nude woman with pig features, crawling on all fours and possessing several breasts. The picture was evidently photoshopped. Ramsay said the picture was Tracy Grimshaw.

Ramsay said he had an interview with Grimshaw before he appeared at the food show. Ramsay voiced his opinion that Grimshaw may need to see Simon Cowell's botox doctor.

According to Ramsay, his lawyers have reviewed the tapes and have not found him to have said the word "lesbian". It seems that the allusions that were made is what has caused all the fuss.

Did anyone see the bit on TV about him last night? They interviewed his "ex" bit on the side, she didn;t really have anything great to say about him, but they also mentioned that his business was close to going in receivership last year, hard to believe when you see him on tv all the time. I always get the impression when you see him interviewed that he doesn't have a great opinion of women. If he dod this as a "joke" then he really needs to realise that to pull off a joke you need the right persona to do it, he just doesn't have it

What I am finding puzzling is that many people appear to think it is OK for him to describe someone as a pig, and to be surprised when that person has a go back at him.

Maybe I have missed something ?

Oh please. It was a joke and she was ridiculous to kick up such a fuss. He's over here publicising the restaurant (and brilliant publicity he's getting as well). Let's face it, much as I think he's hot, he's no oil painting himself so he's hardly going to be serious about someone elses looks. The media coverage and supposed outrage is so OTT it's just not true. He had no issues with her comments back to him. It's just the media making Everest out of nothing because there's nothing else to write about now they realise no one's interest in pig flu and there's no actual recession to stress over.

He actually did have an issue with what she said. He was outraged that "such a respected so called professional brought his wife into the argument, which is plain discusting" Ermmm maybe but if you dish it take it crinkle head :P

Ms Grimshaw took great offece at being called a "fat ugly old pig and a lesbian" To be honest I think I would to actually!

I can kind of see his point. He had a misguided joke at her expense due to certain heckling in the crowd at the show. She responded calling him names which was fine but for her to say 'we've seen how badly he treats his wife' is completely out of order and the sort of rubbish she comes out with on ACA. She has issues with him, why bring his wife into it? No one knows, bar Ramsay and his wife, whether he has played away or not. There's been no proof and the fact that his wife has stayed with him regardless of what other people have said makes Tracy Grimshaw's comments wrong imo.

They've both behaved like idiots to be honest but she does look like the back of a bus :wink: and I'm not convinced being called a lesbian is offensive anyway.

At the end of the day, it's been brilliant publicity for both of them. More people will sadly watch ACA instead of it being taken off air because it's appalling rubbish, and he'll get stacks more people through his restaurant's doors. They both win.

I wonder if anyone will follow up on this thing about his mum, or whether they will now let the dust settle.
