Gossip Queen: Judging switch on the table for MKR’s Manu Feildel

One of the My Kitchen Rules celebrity chefs is strongly tipped to excuse himself from the MKR table and take a seat on the reboot of another Channel 7 reality show.

Celebrity chef Manu Feildel is strongly tipped to excuse himself from the MKR table and take a seat on the reboot of Australia’s Got Talent.

Feildel, a viewer favourite, would be a surprise but clever choice as a judge on Channel 7’s new version of the popular talent show.

Apart from being handy in the kitchen, Feildel trained in circus arts for three years before concentrating on a cooking career.

While being a mainstay of Seven’s MKR, he has hosted his own travel/cooking documentary, acted in the film The BBQ, and won the 2011 edition of Dancing with the Stars.

And in a sure sign he has something cooking, Feildel unveiled his svelte new look on Instagram last week after a stunning three-month weight-loss program, putting the results down to “three months of dedication, no booze, no carbs, no sugar, (and) training five days a week”.

Seven would not comment about Feildel’s possible involvement in the show.

He is still expected to be with MKR in 2020.

The Australia’s Got Talent machine is kicking into action next month with dates locked in for the judges’ auditions.

The show will film the Sydney auditions from May 11-14 and will then head to Melbourne to film on May 22-23.
