does anyone know if the women who physically assaulted Marcel were arrested or charged?




More than one woman hit him with a bottle? Every report I heard said one woman did it.

Did Marcel grab her first and was afraid to file charges knowing he would get into a lot more trouble?




Marcel didn't even report the assault by Cliff, and just casually mentined it during routine clip-filming the next morning. Why would you expect him to go running to the authorities here? He keeps his eye firmly on the prize, and all the other crap is strictly secondary to him. Mentioning it in a matter-of-fact way during an interview is just Marcel's style. He doesn't go crying to the mommie-authority figure like Elia does.

I do agree with your prior observations that she seemed to think that she was entitled to win. However, despite her many degrees and accomplishments, her former subordinate, Marcel, was finally growing into his own and she just refused to see it. Or, saw it, refused to believe it, and REALLY resented it.

In fact, they all did. Before the finale, Ilan commented that everybody KNEW that Marcel wasn't as good as them, even Marcel. However, Marcel played it really close to the chest and was very quietly the most fiercely competitive of them all. It pissed them all off to see his single-minded dedication, and I think it began to make them uneasy and perhaps even frightened that Marcel seemed totally in command of what he was doing as he cooked. None of their mind games were working, and it really shook them, I think.

If they had all paid more attention to business rather than building themselves up by tearing Marcel down, the result could have been different. But Marcel's ignoring them and being completely professional in the kitchen just got under their skins so much that I think it did have an effect on them. Certainly the final attempt to discredit Marcel was so pathetic as to make me question their professionalism. Elia in particular started to speak of it as if she was superior to Marcel, was confiding to the judges as an equal professional, and just assuming that they would jump all over Marcel as soon as she mentioned the hot-button word "cheated." However, all she was really saying, essentially, was that Marcel was beneath them all. How stunning that she couldn't accept that Marcel's skill set had been perfectly matched with this challenge and that he had done a truly magnificent job.




Excellent post! You know, since Elia says that she trained Marcel, you would think it would give her some joy and proud moments to know that her student was doing so well. Guess the old saying "Pride goeth before the fall" is too true for these people.



I think someone in a earliar post hit it on the head and pointed out what many including me failed to see about Marcel... this whole season he has maintained his focus on one thing ... the goal of winning . He has gone about his business with that in mind and I think that is what pissed everyone else off. He refused to play "nice" in the kitchen ,doing whatever he needed to do for himself first and then and only then would he help others. His lack of "people" skills may have been just his focus coming through. One thing about him... he said he was there to win from the first show. I think he REALLY meant it and that was ALL he cared about along with what HE had to do to do it. All else was not important.




Deleted part of that, but you are right Fordman...he always said he wasn't here to make friends, he was there to win. And I hope that is exactly what happens.




Well, the part about not making friends is definitely right.

However, it seems that he needs to have the help from some of the other competitors to win the final.

Ilan, amigo, shouldn't you be out looking for a job??




Holster you got to admit that alot more likey than Marcel just being randomly victimized for nothing more than being on a reality show. Its als more likely than Bottomchef being Ilan as well.

hehehe




nope. the show has created quite a strong love sam/hate marcel vibe in the nether world of tv viewers....and given the transient and tawdry crowd that vegas attracts, it makes perfect sense that some sam-lovin bimbo threw a bottle at marcel////that kind of [censored] happens a lot to actors and actresses.

No Marcel wasn't picked to win from the beginning. He was there to be the instigator of drama. So was Emily but she sucked so bad she was gone before anyone knew it.
Marcel has been the picked to win ever since the prank. you think a stubborn Bastard like Tom is going to let the producers make him change his mind? Nope sorry. Tom's mind was made up and the only thing left to do is go through the motions, make the win seem plausable and get all their advertising revenue.




Hey maybe Tom put Gail, Padma, & Chef Wong in a half nelson & dry humped them until they swore to vote for Marcel no matter what!




ROTFLMAO...good think I wasn't drinking anything!

I went to the blogs to see Harold's take on the show this week but did not find Harold. Did I miss it or was his honesty too much for Bravo?

Well Bottom I think she asked him how did cliff hold you again? Marcel was trying to put her in a full nelson to demostrate...she broke out of it and hit him with the bottle...as he was lying there bleeding she looked down at him and said " See that is how I would of handled Cliff" Boy theese things get blown out of proportion..lol

Not saying Marcel getting hurt is something to laugh at..but everyone was asking and this senario came to my warped mind.

Casually mentioning the attack by Cliff was the way Marcel acted the entire competition. He would never take strong action but do the little things required to piss off the others or to get others into troubles. The "casual mention" was perfectly calculated and fits his previous MO perfectly.

I wonder if Sam is on Marcel's team because Marcel being #1 in the Pt1 finale gave him the first pick in the Pt2 finale. Both Sam and Mike have stated in post-show interview that although they are not close friends with Marcel, he isn't that bad a guy. I believe that Elia and Betty still hold a grudge against Marcel. I also believe that Sam will do his best to help Marcel because he would want to appear professional as there are sure to be many prospective employers and investors watching the Finale. Sam has stated that being on Top Chef, even as a loser, has opened many doors for him.
Mike will take his cue from Sam and also do a good job for Marcel.




on the preview they are shown drawing knives...and it looks like the other chefs do the chIoosing of which team they want...Sam says he doesn't want to help Ilan because Ilan is just going to do more spanish stuff......fascinating!!

Betty is such a poor sport she wouldn't work for Marcel under any circumstance.....thank god for Marcel.




I think you misinterpreted the preview. Chef Tom informs the two finalists that they will get to pick two helpers each from the six former cheftestants. Then Chef Tom polls them to see who they would like to work for. However, we don't get to see who Ilan and Marcel then proceed to pick from the group as their helpers.

There is a HUGE difference between a bad prank where you get some rug burns perpitrated by people you know and some stranger smashing a bottle in your face for apparently no reason.

If you aren't calling the cops after that its pretty fishy.

You know Sooner, so did I. They all did their best to interpret the challenge and execute their dishes. Without tasting, we will never know, but they all should be proud of the cooking they did...



That's about all those three could be proud of...

the thing that makes me 99% sure that marcel wins is that Bravo has always made the winner sympathetic. and so far, the three least sympathetic contestants are Ilan, Betty and Elia. Sam is hugely popular and ends up on Marcel's team.

So, unless they have a cutaway about Ilan supportiung a village in africa which grows saffron, the chances of his being the winner are nearly nil.

They are simply not going to have a winner the audience finds smarmy. And Sam's going over to Marcel's side will give him enough sympathy with the audience that there will be no outcry. After all, if Sam respects him that much, who could not?







Too true. Someone said something earlier about Ilans MY SPACE putting his income at $100,000 or some BS. and said that contracts make it punishable to reveal the winner. Therefore, since that is true, and he says he has that money, the only way to NOT get into trouble for breach of contract is to be lying. Which leave the winner to be MARCEL!

You don't have to buy anything its already bought and paid for. Tom let the cat out of the bag when he said as much on his blogg. The head judge's own words call into question the whole competition and his lobbying to dismiss the best remaining chef all season on a technicality only adds fule to the fire.

After the prank, its never been about the food.




Gee, do you think if you say it enough times it will become true? 3,000,001, 3,000,002, 3,000,003 . . . YAWN.

all i have to say is this marcils can not cook he has been on the final bottom way more than sam and if i am correct they were actually thinking about sending him home not once but twice and in fact in the first part of the show they did not even care for his dish tonight and then they change their mind kinda wierd if you ask me the only reason they got rid of sam is because he could beat marcil's in the end and everyone knows it. i doubt i will watch next season because in the first season i honstely thoughts the judges were being fair but know i can see they are just full of themselves.




Why do i feel like I'm in "Groundog Day"???

Can someone come up with a new refrain??




Oh come now, the wound is still fresh, don't begrudge the stragglers their chance to vent about the injustice of it all




LOL. I don't. Really. It's just that it's the same poster cominmg back in a variety of new names saying the same thing. Kinda funny. Just wish he/she/they would change up the content.

Just a thought or two , here. Many of the booted chef this year at one point or another turned up his/her nose at a quickfire or elimination challenge, sniffing that they didn't do that kind of cooking.

Last year, Harold made this complaint in a vastly more elegant manner. He would say, "This isn't what I came here for."

Very professional. He's waiting for the really superior ingredients and leeway to bust out and show what he can really do, but, at the same time, he is careful not to diss the importance of the particular audience or ingredients (kids, transvestites, Junior League microwaving moms, vending machine food, etc.). He just puts his nose to the grindstone to push through the challenge, hoping that the good stuff will come eventually.

He wasn't any older than the finalists this year, but BOY what a huge difference in maturity, diplomacy, and professionalism.

Gosh, who did this same thing this year???? Anybody amongst these immature, siniveling, crybabies??? Could it be . . . . . . OMG . . . Marcel?

The kid has an unusual presence for one so young, and it definitely got under others' skins because they just didn't accept it coming from him. If Marcel had come in a $2,000 suit each time like Stephen from last year, the combination of the visual and the vibe would have matched. How differently they all might have reacted if they had seen him for the quietly confident adult that he has turned out to be. Yes, they may still have seen him as Stephen-like uppity (a distinct step up from the merely annoying), but they would at least have respected him as a cook more.

Well, DAYAM! I just saw one of the previews of next week and Marcel is standing in front of Padma...and when Padma announces the winner, she's looking straight ahead. Plus they are totally playing the "Marcel vs Ilan" and using lots of Ilan's hateful comments towards Marcel that he's bben using since day 1.

Marcel has this locked! He must have cooked his little ass off.

yooohooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!





I hope he did...that pissant Ilan must be crushed...or I won't watch anymore of this rigged show lmao




LOL so if your favorite wins a rigged show its ok. Classic.




no, what's classsic is that, for you, it's only rigged if Marcel wins, and it's only rigged for hilaryloren if Ilan wins.

but for me, i wil accept any outcome as legit no matterwho wins.

game, set, match.

Hey Siz,
When I read what happen to actor, I had a visual... would love to see the mark it left.




OH YEAH, never even thought about that...ok Actor, turn around and bend over...O:)




As the doctors say, "Bend over, grab the jewels, and cough!"




Yeah Actor. All us ladies are lined up, rubber gloves at the ready....(O:




Uh, I guess I should have mentioned it earlier...but I have an alergy to latex. does that mean I don't have to wear gloves?




No, you get to ride bareback!! ROTFLMAO




But isn't that unsanitary? Here Zip I have some Lamb skin ones if you want? Now Siz don't get jealous you are an afficianado now!

Wow now THAT'S a conspracy theory!!! If the whole idea was for Marcel to win, then the producers would have just let Tom C. give it to Marcel after shave & a haircut. I doubt that they are doing this for ratings b/c Sam was the favorite, so I would assume people would watch him inthe final, right? Sam hated Marcel just as much as Ilan, so a Sam/Marcel finale would be just as much of a ratings grabber, if not more so than an Ilan/Marcel finale. I thought the BYOS benefitted everyone equally or had the potential to benefit equally. Sam had been studying pastries, perhaps he could have brought along some specialty gizmos to help him create a magnificent pastry for the final challenge. Ilan needs cases of saffron to do his dishes, which might not be available in such large quanties in a standard kitchen. It's not Marcel's fault if Sam chose not to take advantage of the BYOS!




I don't think Sam hated or hates Marcel. i've always noticed that, unlike Betty, Ilan and Elia, Sam always congratultes Marcel on his wins...even the latest. There is a great deal of decency in Sam. He let Marcel get on his nerves, but Sam always was a good sport throughout....well, with a few exceptions, but who's counting?




Haven't you nitcied that Sam is a total passive aggressive? He instigated situations, let others take up the cause, often to their own detriment, & then resurfaced as the "voice of reason" as to why they should just let sleeping dogs lie. Sam certainly isn't a wicked villain, but he's far from a good hearted saint.

True enough! Did you watch NS last night? Hubby and I both felt that the first and last singers were the worst. Can't remember their names, both women. The "sister" part of the brother/sister peeps did an AWESOME job last night. Put a lot of soul into it and her voice was impressive. Brother wasn't too bad, but I think his Sister whooped him last night.




YOU THOUGHT SIZ

THE SISTER HACKER WAS THE LAST ONE UP

GAVE A BAD PERFORMANCE I THOUGHT

REALLY PITCHY

HOPE SHE ISN'T THE ONE TO GO THOUGH

MEG WAS THE FIRST AND IS IMPROVING EVERY EPISODE

MAN THAT BLAKE DUDE REMINDS ME OF ME LOL

MS JEWEL AND MS BROWN

WELL

LOOKING AWFULLY FINE

TAKE CARE OVER THERE

ALOHA

HAVE FUN




No, sister Hacker was second to last. The last one was a blond, can't rmemeber her name and stupid internet giving me fits this morning. The last three were all ladies, Sister, Whitney (the one booted) and the blond. She sucked! Pitchy doesn't describe it. LOL Judge Randy Owen is awful! he almost acts like he is stoned or something..very weird dude!! I thought Meg was off key last night. JMO, but thought she was much better last week.




THAT WAS HER

BROTHER HACKER WAS PRETTY GOOD

GOT SLAMMED BY MS.BROWN

SIS WAS THE ONE THAT SURVIVED THE ELIMINATION

SAYING HER FIRST CHOICE SONG WAS NOT APPROVED

OR SUMTHIN

REASON SHE WAS STRESSED AND SANG BAD

HOPE SHE MAKES IT

BUT AS A WHOLE I THOUGHT HER PERFORMANCE WAS THE WEAKEST

TAKE CARE OVER THERE

ALOHA

I thought they all did a really good job of taking the Hawaiian cuisine and putting thier own twist on it.




You know Sooner, so did I. They all did their best to interpret the challenge and execute their dishes. Without tasting, we will never know, but they all should be proud of the cooking they did...



That's about all those three could be proud of...




This is true HL, just hope EVERY ONE OF THEM learned something from all of this..and if not, that is so sad for them.

LOL. good hearted saint? no. but he does have a basic decency. yes, he's a vacilator...he's neither hot nor cold...a passive button pusher...but you can see him struggle, which is at least a sign of conscience, unlike
Ilan who seems to lack a conscience all together. I think that's what lost Sam the contest, he just lacks conviction....his bread is neither soft nor toasted, just kinda stale, but still integral.

I would not eat a thing he touched, too much chance of it being hazardous





sugar chil, "marcelisgay"?? I mean, really....that username alone just screams
"I am a pimply-assed 15 year-old wanker"....and if you're not, well, chil, i do feel for you most severerly.

Now, slap on some more oxy10 and go back to your geometry.



ROFLMAO....just went shopping for my teen, have an unopened tube, I'll gladly share. Now, Honeychil, (not you Holster, but "marcelisgay childe") get off the comp, finish your homework, do your chores!!! *done in best Mom voice*
