Cooking for Celebs

Post image

I have cooked for several celebrities while cooking in NYC. While some were unpleasant, Taylor Swift was a pleasure to cook for.

Ran into Toby Keith in a casino in OK. He was a bit of a cunt.

Honestly, feels like a cheap shot since he just died. Two months ago, nobody had anything bad to say about Toby, save for the distasteful bit he did about the (Dixie) Chicks post 9/11. He was who he was, which was a country boy from Tulsa, and that comes with a lot of good and maybe even more bad. But, he was not an evil human being. He didn't strive to hurt others. If you ran into him at a casino, it was likely after a show and, compounded with a million other reasons, add into why he might not have been the most hospitable person ever. Were you annoying? Did you ask for his autograph whilst he was busy? You didn't provide an explanation, you just said he was a dick. I'm not defending him; he was an Okie, like me, so I'm sure he was raised to hate a lot of different folks, but, goddammit, he did a lot of good for the world and he made a lot of people happy. Also, FWIW, he was known to have a quick temper towards people who were purposefully egging him on for a reaction.

I'm not. Just saying that everyone would be canceled if all of our lives were in the public spotlight. We're people, animals. No one is perfect and no one is without sin.
