3．With his spiky hair and sunglasses，Guy Fieri looks more like a rock star than a chef.
Truth be told，he is just as famous as a rock star.This year，he used his fame to raise donations totaling over ＄21 million （about 166.2 million yuan）.He donated the money to restaurant workers who have lost their jobs because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.
Fieri is what we call a "celebrity chef".These chefs are just as well-known for their big personalities as they are for their cooking skills.They include US chef Fieri，British chef Gordon Ramsay，and the late US chef Anthony Bourdain.These chefs show their knowledge of cuisine （菜肴），as well as tell jokes on their TV shows.
Ramsay is known for hosting Hell's Kitchen.On this reality show，young chefs competed with each other to win the head chef position in one of Ramsay's restaurants.Ramsay was very strict with the chefs and often said unkind things to tjye.aim.He didn't do this to be mean （刻薄的）.He has great respect for the craft of cooking，and expects his fellow chefs to work hard for excellence.In his Master Class instructional videos，he shows a more pleasant attitude as he teaches amateur （業(yè)余的）chefs how to cook five-star dishes in their own homes.
People wonder why celebrity chef culture hasn't taken off in China the way it has in the West.
China is home to so many amazing styles of cooking and food is a big part of the culture in general.With the popularity of live streaming and short videos，it feels like the perfect time for someone with both good cooking skills and a unique personality to become China's first celebrity chef.
