‘Top Chef’ host Padma Lakshmi is looking to branch out from her hosting duties. She signed a development deal with NBC and NBC’s studio, Universal Media Studios, to develop a half-hour sitcom that Padma would star in.
[T]he show will star Lakshmi as a woman working in the culinary world. (One possible title being mulled: Single Serving."
I know some of you are wondering how hosting a show translates into being a sitcom star, but Padma has acting credits. She was in the miniseries ‘The Ten Commandments,’ ‘The Mistress of Spices,’ ‘Boom,’ and ‘Glitter.’
Currently Padma and producers are meeting with writers to talk about ideas.
Does this sound like a show you’d be interested in watching?

what happenned to her face! looks like she was lifted a little too high on one side.
on topic- I cannot see her in a sitcom.
I like Padma, so I’d give it a try.
Could be really cute if thay take it in the right direction. ~ Liz ~
Oh gosh. She should stick to hosting.
I thought she showed us her “funny side” when she married Salman Rushdie.
LOL!
My husband thinks she’s hot. I’m sure he’d love to see more of her.
thanks, I’M ALREADY DYING!!
I personally think shes not that hot, but who knows if she turn out to have good acting skills.
