She has such gorgeous colouring and skin. A very beautiful woman.

My Dad has a huge crush on Nigella. They're similar ages though so I can make my peace with it.
She is beautiful but he hammy camera show makes me chuckle sometimes, it's so obvious. Brining a turkey though 👌🏻👌🏻

Yes, she is gorgeous. I wonder what it is like to be that beautiful.

I love Nigella but agree with mybalconyiscracking - she didn't do the mugging to the camera in her early series and tbh the gurning puts me off. She's obviously been told to ham up the 'sexy' over the years and it gets more over the top and annoying with every series.
It's irritating but she's a smart woman and is basically making a killing out of parodying the media version of herself. The black washing up gloves were the epitome of it.

Or talking about 'beating the mixture into submission' or whipping the cream until it forms 'stiff peaks'. Always with a knowing look to camera.

I like Nigella but I realise that the Nigella we see on TV is a media creation. She's basically an actress playing a very popular and lucrative role. I'm sure the 'real' Nigella is totally different.

Je suis Nigella

I don’t even like cooking and I think she’s great. I love her on Twitter. People send her pictures of food they’ve made and she replies to them all.

Please don’t ruin it with and ‘ah her PR people do it’ comments.

I love her recipes but I find Nigella too annoying to watch, with all the flirting to camera etc.

Give me Nadiya Hussain any day. I love that woman and her recipes!

I love her!! Just making her ham in cherry coke and her gingerbread stuffing is defrosting. I want to be a bit more Nigella.

She really is beautiful. She is a natural on camera.
