Update on happenings after his death. No narcotics found in his system. His Mom will get a tattoo.

But really more on theme here. The slide show of responses. The feeling of difficulty of processing his loss seems common.

Makes no sense to me either. Celebrity worship is strange, especially for an average chef.

think about it in terms of 'entertainment' and you may get the drift...

What is this fascination with celebrities ?

Up on a pedestal, crying about his passing.

For a TV show ? Give me a break !

He wrote some excellent books. I have a feeling I would not like the guy if I knew him, but there is no disputing his talent.

His last show (Bhutan) airs soon. 

 

What a picture. 

 

Take a little tour of Anthony Bourdain in his quotes, pictures, and videos.

He seemed to appear less superficial than many of the ego driven chefs. I particularly dislike Gordon Ramsay, for his horrible attitude to his staff.

Jamie Oliver, seems ok.

 

I thought 'that's a Shame' when I heard he'd died.

Suicide the ultimate ego gig, no? As for Gordon and Jamie, they are at least still with us, faults and all...
