Yeah, I read that about the Phillie station mistakenly announcing that Sam had won, but there seems to be no confirmation. Also a story that Sears has Sam prominently featured in their Kenmore ads. but again, I can't find evidence.
We'll see how Bravo spins this tonight. If they're smart, they'll offer an apology to the viewers in the extra 15 minutes...but it will probably be ANdy Cohen talking about nose jobs.

Honesty... attitude... and seasoning... could be the keys to eliminations as the second season of Top Chef heads into its finale this week-- after one of the most bizarre reality show incidents in history-- the physical attack on a contestant that almost led to the end of the game and cheated us out of its Hawaiian location.
The two-part finale was shot the first week of December at the Hilton Waikoloa Village on the Big Island. Despite a few blabbermouth finalists who've given indications they've lost by showing up in the papers the past couple of weeks, everyone involved with the Bravo series has been closely guarded about the finale. But now guest judge Alan Wong has given some inadvertent but solid hints that could give fans of the show clear signs of which chefs will be eliminated.
With four finalists left--these could count as spoilers... after the jump...
Guest judge Wong--the master of Hawaiian regional cuisine-- is quoted this morning in the Honolulu Star-Bulletin. He didn't name names, but said:
"Somebody got let go because of dishonesty, somebody got let go because of bad attitude, somebody got let go because of not using salt and pepper and not tasting the food before serving it ..."
Dishonesty... bad attitude... salt & pepper...
The finalists are Ilan Hall, Sam Talbot, (lone female) Elia Aboumrad and cast villain Marcel Vigneron.
Marcel almost won by default last week after a shocking incident in which his fellow contestants had a few drinks and in the middle of the night tried to shave his head. The incident had (surprisingly good) host Padma Lakshmi's mouth hanging open and Judge Tom Colicchio so angry that he wanted to kick off all four of the contestants and give Marcel the prize. But producers overruled him-- and only kicked off Cliff Crooks, the cook who physically held down the little wiseacre.
Marcel is decribed by the newspaper as "a down-to-earth, cheerful sort off-screen," and says his villainous image came as a surprise to those who work with him in the kitchen of the Joel Robuchon at the Mansion restaurant at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
"The majority of my co-workers couldn't believe it and they respect me and didn't understand where the castmates were coming from," he said. "I think it bothered the other people in the house that I didn't let it get under my skin. Most didn't have the courage to say anything directly to me."
Does that sound like a winner? The winner gets $100,000 and a feature in Food & Wine magazine. The Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau kicked in $60,000 to snatch the finale from Las Vegas, where Season One ended, so producers had reason to spare Marcel's other three tormentors.
Verrry interesting...bad attitude = Ilan for sure. cheating =could be Sam, I think Marcel would be seasoning. Seems like that was one comment from the judges we heard often.

I thought the same thing Siz...for along time since he first posted this.Then i read on TWOP he was talking about either last season or other chefs this season...Ya godda read it real carefully....Also..that thing about Sam has been discounted....That Violet V girl who was close to Marcel and knew him is posting over on the spoiler thread..She says Marcel is going to NY for many reasons too and will try and get info....Hmmmm

Just read snarkgirl's very well thought out discussion on the series of events---and I have a question for anyone out there.

(many-many people commented on it) So we know that they are dropping in later interviews in earlier episodes. Why? HMMM. I would really like it if someone could/would check the previous week's episode and see if Elia is indeed wearing the wig in any of her interviews--I would also be interested in what she said and who she said it about.
And here is a thought Bravo---I know they must be positively drooling over the fact that there is so much interest in Top Chef right now--everyone is talking about it-ecetera, ecetera and I imagine that the next two episodes will get big ratings. I will be 'glued to my seat' tonight but--unlike PR or last season's TC I will not be watching the repeats over and over and over again. Once is very much enough.

Hey after this show he may very well have his own line of products!!!!
But NO clippers!!!!
As the most forgiving of the Miss Savant award, you are forgiven for the slight! HOWEVER, yes, I DID sleep my way to the top...not my fault you keep gathering all the gays for your posse...HELLO!!! do you not realize that you ain't their type!!!!! lol
If you want to sleep your way, Baby youse got to have a little different demographic posse.
Good luck at Marcel's Grand Opening...I heard that there was going to be a floor show, staring Sam, Ilan and Elia. Doing the musical "HAIRless" Have fun, but Kristl.....wear a hat...a real tight hat.
ROFLMBUMO!!!
YOMANK!!!!!
Ahhhh Hairless..Now THAT was good!!!!
Oh my....That..means they will be nude for a portion of the act.lets hope we get a stiff wind and things are not easy....I hope things are really HARD for them..lol
I need a place to hang my scissors!
Concidering you are gathering gays, just what parts would you like hard???? Peepees and nips??? OR, just one or the other...remember, Elia is going to be there .....oh yeah, you are bi-curious, so I guess it will ALL work for you. However, you will probably have to fight Ilan for Sam, you know how obsessed he is with him...when Cliff was holding down Marcel, Ilan was screaming, "Sam Sam...cum on Sam" everyone thought is was to get Marcel. But due to excellent editing, he was ACTUALLY doin' the nasty with Sam while holding the camera on Cliff and Marcel. THAT is why Elia was all hunched over...jealousy!!!

Sam on Fox:
from TWOP:
1. Addressed "Clippergate" right up front. Sam referred to it as Clippergate, which makes me wonder if he or one of his friends is reading this board.
2. Sam is sticking to the revised timeline. Conversation went something like:
Hostess: calls Marcel "annoying" (not sure she would know---didn't seem like she actually saw the show) and identifies Sam as the "sexy" one. Then they immedietly went into--
Sam: "Yeah, Clippergate. Basically, Ilan and Elia decided to shave their heads. And then [people are saying] that Cliff was going to hold him down and I was going to shave his head--"
Hostess (interrupts): "--But that was a lie, right?"
Sam: "Yeah, that was a lie" (my emphasis, Sam was clearly trying to downplay it)
Then they started talking about food.
As much as the conversation above is paraphrased, Sam DEFINATELY said the words "It was a lie"

Speaking of dropping in footage filmed later to help "create" the story, which it seems clear that the producers do fairly frequently, there is one additional point that needs to be checked out. All parties involved are tenaciously hanging onto the story that the sequence of the assault events is exactly as shown. Yet, the original airing showed Marcel stalking off in anger with Elia clearly visible on the rug, full head of hair still intact.
Query: What if they really ARE telling the truth? What if this damning scene was actually an editing "drop-in" to finish the assault story? Could this have been filmed earlier, when Elia was on the rug doing her yoga exercises?
Somebody who taped the original please verify: Was that scene also as badly lit as the rest of Ilan's filming of that night, or is it suddenly well-lit as if filmed by the production crew on a different date?
We anxiously await your confirmation.
