The gigantic mouth on Food Network, Rachel Ray, did some “risqué” photos for FHM back in 2003. For some reason she and the photos still remain relevant. The talk show host/food network star/Dunkin’ Donuts spokesperson was on Nightline being interview by Cynthia McFadden. The subject of her somewhat “scandalous” photos for the mag cam up.

Cynthia: All right, I have to ask you about those pictures.
Rachael: Bring it! First of all, when F-H-M called, I thought it was food and home. I didn’t even know what F-H-M was. And I mean I got the request from the P-R person.
Cynthia: I mean, I would be like oh, that’s-
Rachael: The P-R person at Food Network said we actually have an unusual request from F-H-M magazine. And I thought about it-I think I was thirty-five at the time. Thirty-four or thirty five.

And I thought, what the heck? I asked my husband what he thought of it and he said, [giggles] oh, kinda cool. And I did it and it was the most scared I’ve ever been and I wouldn’t change a thing. I’d do it again tomorrow.
Cynthia: Now I heard your mother told you not to do it.
Rachael: My mother was furious. Remains furious. You don’t have to do that kind of trash, you don’t need to sell yourself that way, blah blah blah. I was proud of it. And I would do it again, even though my mom would be really mad at me. I know she still loves me.
Cynthia: So no regrets. You sound like a-
Rachael: Not for a heart-not for a minute.

I don’t really see the “scandalous” factor in these. Sure, it’s probably considered hard core porn if your last name is Duggar.
