Anne Burrell is selling her cookware on HSN. I think she goes to La Donald's hair stylist!

I hope Donald Hair doesn't really catch on. Not my cuppa.

As to celebrity pans, I bought a Simply Ming wok on a TS at HSN. WOW. Best pan ever. I use it for nearly everything. The non-stick is really slick. You can't heat it as hot as a carbon steel wok, but the ability to use less oil makes up for that. The colors are great. I got a blue, but the purple and green and red were also tempted. Hard to choose. The TS was a very good deal along with a big steamer and glass lid.

I'll skip "celebrity" endorsed stuff and go for the best quality  I can afford.

@Campion I cannot agree with you more about that Simply Ming wok, quite possibly the best overall plan I have ever purchased as you could literally use it for everything and the non-stick is the best I have ever used.

I missed the Anne Burrell full presentation (just caught the very end of the presentation this morning) but will try and catch the ones later today.

I love her new hair style....think it looks great on her.....along with her slimmed down look....

I must say... Not a big fan of all celebrity endorsed stuff, but...!

I have a Rachel Ray grill pan, non stick, I got years ago. It's oval. I LOVE it! No chipping, wears like iron, still non stick holds up.

Just got Rachel's small 8 inch round non stick pan for eggs and such. It is AWESOME!  Silicone handle, too.

Nice weight, feels so good in the hand, really nice quality. Hope it holds up like my grill pan has. I think it will. I do try to hand wash my non stick stuff.

Years ago we bought a set of Emeril stainless cookware. It is wonderrful ! Has held up so well also with tons of use. Sometimes I just love my stainless steel and a Brillo pad for a good, old fashioned scrubbing.

Ummm... maybe I AM a fan of celebrity stuff? Lol.

It just seems there are so many these days. Can they all be good? 🍳

Does Lori Goldstein go to La Donald's too?  Her hair is often sticking every which way, like she just crawled out of bed.

Does anyone know how Anne lost the weight? I think she looks great! I couldn't find any info on web search. I like her. I think she seems authentic. 

Gosh, it must be so hard to lose weight as a chef.

I just tuned in, out of curiosity, to see Anne Burrell.

She looks exactly the same to me as she has looked for a very long time - hair and weight-wise.  Maybe it's just me.  I'm getting very forgetful.

Nothing negative meant by any of that, of course.  I enjoy her and I always watch 'Worst Cooks' and used to watch her other FN show.  Once she settled down a bit, in her first show, she was really great to watch! 

Kudos for the crazy hair!  Hey, if I could pull something like that off I would.  She DOES pull it off!  

[momtochloe]

Oh good heavens that woman is nothing if not entertaining . . . what a fast half hour and so enjoyable!

She does look like maybe she lost some weight but she looks great and as always makes great food and you can tell the hosts enjoy being around her.

I'm not sure of the technology behind her pans but they certainly seemed to perform on the air (as they all do).  To be honest, I can wait a few more seconds for my pan to heat up but her non-stick does look like it may hold up.

I will wait for the reviews before I would take the plunge but it was more than great to see her again.
