So, Ya wanna be a star??



This email arrived the other day, and I thought I'd share it with all of you aspiring Sir Gordon's!!

Hi there!
I am a casting director for the TV industry and I run a company called “A Cast of Thousands”. We have just been briefed on a dream show for a foodie to cast, Masterchef. Below is some information about the show. I am trying to reach out to Australia’s foodie community to get the word out to find the best amateur cooks in the country. I am hoping that you may know of friends who may be interested in the opportunity. It is also OK for you to post this on your blog if you wish.
******************
The search is on to find Australia’s first true MasterChef. Network Ten wants every kitchen wannabe from amateur chefs to budding foodies to toss their chef’s hat in the ring…each hoping to become…Australia’s next super Chef.
A real life drama will play out as the contestant’s kitchen courage is put to the ultimate test. From the lows of failure to the highs of success, our cast of characters will be catapulted from starters to mains then desserts and back again.

IN 2009 WE ARE ABOUT TO SEE WHO CAN TAKE THE HEAT…AND WHO HAD BETTER GET OUT OF THE KITCHEN!

To apply, go to www.masterchef.com.au

Thanks for your time

I've seen the UK Masterchef on telly and it pits good home cooks who are aspiring chefs aginst each other in a kitchen studio over several knock out rounds and in the final sessions includes experience in restaurant kitchens. I think the winner goes on to get a gig in the hospitality industry.

The US Masterchef is more of a reality show I think, and it's pretty awful to my mind, haven't been able to sit through a whole show.

I've always pictured you as being on a TV. Will you throw your hat in the ring? I think 'Her Squishyness' should too given, she's already done the Foxtel BBQ show. How about it??

Newp.

Not me..

Have no desire to work in hospitality.

Now, if the prize was a chance to open my own deli.. that would be another thing at all.
