I'll Take 'Fucking Donkey' For $25,000, Alex
The Hollywood Reporter made mention in an article about the continuing success of Hells Kitchen [it's the swearing and abuse] that some numnutz offered Chef Gordon Ramsay $25,000 bucks to call him a "Fucking Donkey" during the opening days of Gordon Ramsay Steak at Paris Las Vegas.
For his part, Ramsay notes that one downside of global recognition for being a hard-ass on TV is that many see his authentic indignation as merely an act generated at will: "I was in Las Vegas recently and someone said, 'I'll pay you $500 to call me a f---ing donkey.' I said no. He goes: 'It's my birthday! Just scream at me! $5,000. Please!' He kept going up and up. I finally stopped him at something like 25 grand. I told him that when I get upset, it's for real."
Dear numnutz, I'll do it for $5k.
Thanks to VT superfriend Middleclassbuzz for the tip (via Eater)!
