Paula Patton's fried chicken

17 replies

Celebrities live in their own world, Paula Patton, an American actress, producer and was Robin Thicke was married to her.

She uploaded a vlog on IG(now closed comments on this vlog, understandably so - people went on to Twitter to make fun of it) of making fried chicken and was excited telling followers it was her mum's recipe and how she(mum) would be proud of her. She even told us it was cleaned with an exaggerated African American accent, and prayed for it.

But she did not season the chicken before coating and burnt it. In the end, she tasted it and went "hm oh, very good".

I found it all laughable, but why do celebrities live in their own world and like to create personas? It's clear she can't cook or at least not as confident - but how in the hell do you make fried chicken but no seasoning?

Sorry I really don’t understand what problem you have with this. She cooked it to her own recipe, or maybe she forgot the seasoning and did it when she remembered. She did it on instagram, she’s not on a tv show or writing a book!

And that is her accent Confused I wouldn’t pray over chicken but maybe she does?

Honestly are you Robin’s new girlfriend or something? This post is oddly personal and bitter.

I couldn’t give a toss to be honest

Mate it's chicken

AHungryCaterpillar · 05/04/2022 15:46

Can’t get worked up about it, I have no idea who she is but does it really matter?

MrPoppysParka · 05/04/2022 15:53

Who seasons the chicken WHILST it’s cooking 😂

ImprobablePuffin · 05/04/2022 15:58

What an odd thing to get het up about.
I can only assume you really dislike this woman especially as you're criticising her accent.
Why do you care so much?

African American accent??

Aspiringmatriarch · 05/04/2022 16:22

I can't hear an exaggerated accent at all Confused

cherryonthecakes · 05/04/2022 16:45

Did watch it all but she loves the word organic doesn't she? Organic paprika, organic chicken...
did you post in the hope that more people would join in the trolling?

cherryonthecakes · 05/04/2022 16:46

I don't know how she normally sounds so can't comment on the accent.

Oooh dear God, that was cringe AF.

Sacrilege to the food of the gods, the fried chicken wing 😲

@ZeroFsKarma

African American accent??
I think the OP meant AAVE but all in all the OP makes zero sense. Like none whatsoever.

It was cringe 😬 😂. I almost threw up watching it. I can't believe she is proud of that. You could see the redness in the chicken. Who in their right mind seasons chicken in boiling oil? Will she eat the grease? I swear that was a joke.

Yes there was a slight emphasis on the cleaning with the accent. 😂

SmellyOldOwls · 05/04/2022 21:50

The chicken doesn't look particularly delicious but she seems nice and she's wearing a jumper made of granny squares Grin
