Food Network Cans "Impossible" Chef
"Dinner: Impossible" chef Robert Irvine has been fired from the Food Network's kitchen!
After it was discovered that Robert lied about his credentials -- including having designed Princess Diana's wedding cake -- Food Network honchos investigated the situation and today released a statement saying they "have not renewed Robert's contract for future seasons" and "will be looking for a replacement host."
Robert apologized for his actions adding, "I was wrong to exaggerate in statements related to my experiences regarding the Royal Family."

Re: Food Network Cans "Impossible" Chef
Why would they put him on the show without FIRST checking his credentials?

Re: Food Network Cans "Impossible" Chef
Why do people lie about things that can be easily checked?

Re: Food Network Cans "Impossible" Chef
designing Princess Di's wedding cake isn't exactly an easy thing to "check out"
I work there, they do check people out
ETA: It's not like this is the CIA

I just figured it's so high profile that it would have been written up back then, KWIM?

I also thought that being so high profile it might not be so difficult to catch him in the lie. I wonder why the real designer did not come forward?

Not sure, but don't forget all of the chef-lebrities (I'm working on a trademark here so don't think of stealing  ) have "people". The majority of them have their own production companies and we have very little to do w/ their product.
