MasterChef Interview

Isn’t it strange that MasterChef is now off the air? It’s been such a fun ride on Fox this summer, but alas, all good things must end. To help ease the pain of the hiatus, we do have a new treat for you this afternoon. The super-talented and always enthusiastic Jason Wang was kind enough to answer a few […]

Through much of MasterChef season 8, Dino Angelo Luciano was a strong contender to win — he performed extremely well in challenges, and it was clear pretty early on that he was going to be a great ambassador for the show. He was charismatic, funny, and was creative both with his style and cuisine. With all of this […]

It’s an understatement and then some to say that Cate Meade made it far on MasterChef season 8. As a matter of fact, she made it all the way to the final four! She was one souffle away from making it to the finale, but she demonstrated time and time again her ability to make a wide […]

To say that we considered Yachecia Holston to be a contender in the MasterChef kitchen for most of the season would be an understatement. We considered her at one point to be our favorite to win the whole thing! Sadly, she was one of two home cooks eliminated (along with Jeff) on the first hour of last […]

Throughout this season of Fox’s MasterChef, Jeff Philbin was a major force in the kitchen. He battled hard in the challenges, clashed at times with the competitors, and then embraced his underdog status before eventually being one of two home cooks sent home in the first of two episodes airing on September 13. He had a heck […]

This past MasterChef season 8 two-hour event proved to be a big one, especially when it comes to the way Gabriel Lewis ended up being eliminated. After losing the pasta challenge he shared an emotional moment with the judges, as Gordon Ramsay and Aarón Sánchez each made offers to help secure his future in the culinary world. He started the […]

Jenny Cavellier had the rare distinction of making it to the top 11 of MasterChef this season, and was just one challenge away from that top ten. That has to be tough, but in our exclusive email interview below, you’ll get nothing but gratitude from her. Even though Jenny didn’t get an abundance of screen time this […]

It’s been a little while since you saw Mike Newton last compete on MasterChef — his last appearance on the show was back in Las Vegas, where he was at the center of an intense cook-off with Yachecia. Yet, his elimination didn’t technically come until the start of the two episodes that aired back to back on […]

Some MasterChef eliminations make you sadder than others; Reba Billingsley leaving the kitchen was an especially sad one. The look on everyone’s face in the kitchen when she left really showed you just how beloved she was there; she had a ton of heart and brought such a great passion and work ethic to the table. Plus, […]
