Paula Deen Makes Snarky Comment About Anthony Bourdain's Suicide In New Doc
HuffPost
The Southern chef's fall from grace is the subject of the new film "Canceled: The Paula Deen Story."
Paula Deen may be all about Southern hospitality, but she reportedly couldn’t muster anything nice to say about her late critic Anthony Bourdain in her new documentary.
“Canceled: The Paula Deen Story” largely follows the celebrity chef’s fall from grace after she admitted to using the N-word while under oath during 2013 legal proceedings, but the film also touches on Deen’s feud with globetrotting chef and television personality Bourdain, who died by suicide in 2018.
“God rest his soul. I felt like he didn’t like anybody. Not even himself, maybe,” she says in the documentary, which Entertainment Weekly covered after it premiered at the 2025 Toronto International Film Festival on Saturday.
The origin of the two chefs’ public squabble largely plays out through archival footage featured in the film.
In one vintage clip, Bourdain slams Deen’s decadent, deep-fried cooking style, saying, “This is not Southern food she’s been selling. Her brand has been, all these years, novelty food,” EW reports.
