Use Your Head To Get Your Foot In The Door - Plot & Excerpts
Pretty good credentials. Good enough for most people. But not good enough for Robert Irvine. He aerated more fluff in his résumé than a three-star Michelin chef whisks in a soufflé on a good day. For example, he said he was a knight commander of a royal order, that he had a degree from the University of Leeds, that he had been a chef in the White House proper, and that he had been directly involved in creating the wedding cake for Prince Charles and Lady Di. A 2008 article in the St. Petersburg Times revealed he had none of these latter credentials, and Irvine was replaced as host of Dinner: Impossible—only rejoining the show in 2009, with a heftily corrected bio. In 2001, George O’Leary became head coach for the University of Notre Dame football team. Days afterward, incredible inaccuracies in his résumé appeared in the press. He claimed to have a master’s degree from a school that never existed and contended he had three letters in football from the University of New Hampshire.
