I’ve always had a certain respect for celebrities who stayed really honest about things. I mean, everyone is entitled to their secrets and whatnot, but when famous people try to lie about the obvious (i.e. Paris Hilton telling Larry King that she’s never done drugs, Paris Hilton saying she isn’t racist, Paris Hilton acting like she isn’t a whore, etc) its just retarded. So when Rachael Ray told InTouch Magazine that she’s a size 6, I’m a little pissed because she hadn’t lied up until that point. Here’s what the chef said of her size:

You look amazing – have you lost weight since last season?
I don’t know or care – I’m happy and I feel good. My looks are never the focus of my work.

Does working with food all day make it harder to maintain your weight?
No, it’s easy. When you cook, you control the salt, fat and quality of your food.

What’s your secret to staying thin without depriving yourself?
Everything in moderation. And I’m not thin, but thanks!

How do you avoid eating if you feel tempted?
I don’t avoid it. I eat.

Have you always been the same size?
No, but for several years I have been a 6. Within a size 6, you can play with about 20 pounds thanks to stretch fabrics. I don’t get on the scale, I have enough to worry about! I eat well – lots of vegetables and whole grains and protein. When a size 6 gets too tight, I just eat less and move more.

When you chose to work out, what kinds of exercises do you prefer?
I do sit-ups, Jane Fonda butt lifts and push-ups each day, that’s it. I have a gym card that spends most of its time mocking me from my wallet. With my schedule, it’s very hard for me to maintain a consistent gym routine.

If she’s wearing a size 6, it must be in maternity clothes or something. Don’t get me wrong–I like that Rachael Ray hasn’t conformed to the stick-thin Hollywood thing, but I really don’t think it’s possible that she’s a size 6. For as short as she is, she’s really packing some weight. I mean, come on! I’d say she’s more like a size 10 or something. What do you think?

Rachael Ray, who gained popularity and her own network television show thanks to Oprah, has just signed a marketing-campaign deal with Dunkin’ Donuts for multi-millions.

(Millions would be okay but MULTI millions!?)

Apparently, Ray will be promotion brand awareness for Dunkin’ and you will see her in commercials trying to tell America that Dunkin’ Donuts are a healthful part of a balanced diet.

I’m not sure how donuts are part of a healthy diet, because they are basically sugar, carbs and more sugar. But Rachael Ray has been getting chubby and is really, really annoying so.. Maybe donuts are part of a healthy diet to that skeezer, but she’s not going to be able to sell me on it.

Rachael Ray and Tara Reid should pair up and start a vodka & donut shop. During the day you can eat donuts and drink and at night you can drink donut flavored vodka or something.

I’m still working the kinks out of that idea, but you get the picture, right?
