MasterChef US (Season 5)

Am I the only one that wanted to see her win so we could get a dessert cookbook with her on the cover in a whipped cream bikini on a candy cane pole? Maybe someone shooting sprinkles on her face.

Was messing with the Googles to see if there was any proof that Courtney's "brother" was actually her brother and not her son and came across these:

Not sure if this one is legit, seems like it would be though and she probably deleted it:

would've been hilarious if Courtney's clients came to support her instead of her family.

That husband fainting shit was whack. I don't care if it was real or fake, that should have been edited out. It was not dramatic, just a few moments of incredibly cheesy and awkward television, lol.

If those facebook and twitter bullshits are real... Damn woman, class the fuck up.

**Siccmade** · 2014-09-17 08:45

Scottish Francis goin' hard for the wtf moment of the evening. They should have chopped the faint and put that awkward ass exchange in there, at least it was funny.

Wow...

**Lornkeit** · 2014-09-17 13:12

At least now I don't feel as bad for her losing..

Did you catch Krissi from last season's comment? "She's disgusting. And fake. And ugly. And a giant whore. Should I go on?"

I guess I never liked her because she came off as fake (especially that baby voice thing ugh). I don't really think being a stripper matters? Are strippers known for being bad at cooking?

**Rulke** · 2014-09-17 13:34

Regardless of her previous, or current employment, she was a strong competitor all season. I was team Leslie from the beginning but oh well

Also, with the salt instead of sugar goof up, didn't Courtney do that on the doughnut challenge? I can't remember.

Fucking this. I was so mad when episode one started, and they were already down to only the top 18 or whatever.

Yes.

**Dantrag** · 2014-09-18 07:28

Yeah, but that was with how many chefs left? You can make mistakes when there are 15 people left. But you sure as hell can't do it when there are 3.

**Xerlic** · 2014-09-18 07:51

Damn Leslie. He probably would have made it into the finale if it wasn't for that salt slip up.

Courtney definitely knows how to cook, but she came across as really conceited and just annoying to the viewers. The way she talks, the fact that she mentioned 100x that she's an aerial dancer/stripper/whatever and even the way she would prance around instead of just walking like a normal person was just irksome.

I wasn't trying to imply that Leslie should have won despite that. Just that a similar mistake happened earlier so perhaps its not so uncommon due to the pressures of the tests.

I've worked in kitchens and bakeries much of my life, I've seen some dumb-dumbs.

Had a girl mix up a giant batch of cinnamon and sugar that was the topping to one of our best selling pastries... She did cinnamon and salt, lmao. Product went out to our five stores, we got a call about 20min after opening asking wtf is wrong w/ the snickerdoodle!?

Good times.

**Weltall** · 2014-09-18 14:39

Lol Elizabeth, even more happy now that you lost!

Team Courtney! Letssss go!

LOL, that sucks.

I'm hopeful that the upcoming season of Junior Masterchef can make up for how awful this one was. Speaking of, it was pretty cool seeing Alexander make an appearance in that one episode where half of them had to replicate his dessert.

**Rulke** · 2014-09-19 19:04

I didn't watch the Jr. Masterchef series- figured it would be just a cheap spin off, but after seeing the dish the champion put out, perhaps I'll give it a shot. I just don't think I can deal with kid drama -_-

**Avarice** · 2014-09-19 19:15

It's much shorter than regular Masterchef (I think only seven or eight episodes), but it was pretty much the same experience.
