" No you?re not dreaming. Southern California native, Actress, Chef, Vegetarian Personality Leslie Durso represents the younger, chicer vegetarian movement that isn?t sacrificing style for sustainability. A practicing vegetarian since eight years old, Leslie shares her farm-to-stylish-table recipes daily ? integrating an array of local growers and organic wineries along the way. From raw to remarkable, Leslie shares her passion for the ?whole? food daily on her website, lesliedurso.com, in live appearances, on TV and throughout the web ? most notably as the new face of Mother Nature Network, CNN?s newly launched eco-lifestyle brand. Her site is seen daily in 130 countries and boasts half a million viewers weekly. She?s been featured in Glamour Magazine, Maxim Magazine, US Magazine, Yummily, Foodgawker, Tastespotting, Gojee, Tasteologie, Seriouseats, Dailymotion, Mind Body Green and on Food Network and Discovery Channel?s: Stuff Happens with Bill Nye the Science Guy. Maxim recently wrote: ?We want to hire Leslie Durso as our own personal chef! We?ll even eat vegetables for her.? And who wouldn?t? Leslie?s girl-next-door persona attracts everyone from carnivorous males to blogging grannies. Through her engagement online and in the media, Leslie hopes her passion will inspire life-long eating habits and longer life for her audiences and fans."
Barf-o-rama
I feel like this reminds of the line in Mean Girls when they say, "stop trying to make 'fetch' happen". She needs to stop trying to make herself happen.

when I read this, I was wondering if it was her that wrote about herself in third person
Who else would cite they were featured on Foodgawker and tastespotting?? lol!
buahahahaa...oh that girl is redonkulous. If I ever run into her in LA, I might purposely barf on her!!!!!!
LOL.
Like me on Facebook!
!
But, she is happening since obviously several media outlets are interested...
Honestly, I don't get the hate. She's seen a way to get herself out there and she's taking it.
This. I think people would hate her less if she cited sources.
i have just two words for this thread:
Mean Girls
Okay, here's the rest:
Whoaaaaa.
When i turned my women's political blog into an On-Air Opportunity after nearly 1 million hits during the last presidential election, I grabbed it. (I was a Hillary supporter back then.) Anyway, i got sooooooo much hate blogposts just like this after being on TV.....
Seriously, what are you girls upset at? The fact that you couldn't figure out how to do the same?
Get off the couch, go get your hair done, hire an uber-awesome PUBLICIST for $2000-5000 per month, and i guarantee, u just may be able to do the same thing.
This is life. Get over it or Go home. Oh, you're already home, that's right.
Hmm. Someone who joined the nest just to post to this thread. I think that says it all.
Yip! I always stand up for women.
You ladies are not Girl's girls.
Yip?? A sure sign of brilliance. On this board we stand up for woman to and this is a very supportive community. We don 't however support fraud. We applaud people that make it on their own through their own creative skill not by passing others recipes off as their own and flashing their boobs to get ahead. Those types are certainly not girl's girls.
