Boston Teamsters to TV Host: “We’re gonna bash that pretty face in, you fucking whore!”
AUGUST 21, 2014

The TV show “Top Chef” is filming in the Boston suburb of Milton right now and didn’t sign a contract with the Teamsters Union.

Apparently, that makes it OK for members of the Teamsters to threaten the female host of the show.

REMINDER: These people vote for Democrats…

‘Top Chef’ Host Padma Lakshmi And Crew Flambéed By Boston Teamsters

The Teamsters picketers were already mad. By the time Top Chef host Padma Lakshmi’s car pulled up to the Steel & Rye restaurant in the picturesque New England town of Milton just outside Boston, one of them ran up to her car and screamed, “We’re gonna bash that pretty face in, you fucking whore!”

“She was scared,” said a Top Chef crewmember who witnessed the incident, which occurred in June while filming an episode for the upcoming 12th season of Bravo’s popular skein, which premieres October 15. “He was screaming at her aggressively and violently.”

Angry that the show had not signed a Teamsters contract and that the production hired local PA’s to drive cast and crew vehicles, the dozen or so picketers from Boston’s Teamsters Local 25 kept at it for hours, raining down racist, sexist and homophobic threats and slurs as staffers came to and left the set that summer day. Jenn Levy, Bravo’s SVP Production, wasn’t spared. Arriving at the restaurant in her black SUV, she soon found herself running a gauntlet of vitriol. “She got of her car in front of the location and quickly ran through the picket line,” a source said. “They were yelling, ‘You bitch! You slut! We’re gonna get you!’ It went on like that all day.”

Funny how none of the liberal media types who have hyped the phony “war on women” have nothing to say about this.

Guess who the Teamsters supported for US senate in Massachusetts…
