    CONGRATULATIONS Yigit…I’m so happy you won…nice guys do finish first and you are so talented…you earned the title of TOP CHEF!

    Morgan was irritating? He was a LOT less irritating than Zach or that nasty Heather. Everyone I know said we’d go and buy the Godiva chocolates to support Morgan. In fact, we already tried them, and they were delicious. I have nothing against Yigit.
    But, TEAM DIVA was a joke.

      Morgan was a jerk!!!And yes he was talented…but he didn’t get any points in the “personality” department..

    Like “Sally McCoy”, I too watched from the beginning and thought Morgan desserts looked way better and were a lot more creative than the others. I saw the judges reaction to everything Morgan made. They melted over every bite and he was rewarded by winning the majority of the challenges. He then, with the exception of a few souffles, kicked a** in the finale. Morgan deserved to win. You may not like his comments, but you cannot award someone else the win based on political correctness.

    Morgan didn’t say anything homophobic at all. As a gay man, I was also very annoyed by Zach, and if I recall, wasn’t it Zach who opened the whole can of worms by whining about how “offended” he was that Morgan wasn’t jumping around like a moron when he kept winning competitions? There are graceful ways to accept praise, and clearly it was lost on half of the people posting here. There’s nothing homophobic about saying that you have a different demeanor about things. And for the record, endless showtunes and “disco dust” are an embarrassment to the gay community, which is about a LOT more than some endless sass party.

    • Annette

      I agree – What was homophobic about calling out that troll Zac as acting like a little girl or fairy … He was!! The Gay community should be embarrassed by the show that Zac put on, stereotypical as it was. Blech! Morgan was robbed.

    Glad Yigit won and Morgan lost. Although Morgan has some talent, I can’t imagine anyone who would want to work in the kitchen with him. Morgan would only work well with another straight, close-minded male like himself. Anyone unlike him would be too much for him to deal with. The guy is an idiot.

  • Opalglow

    Fair warning! If we are on a reality show together and you sing show tunes I WILL find you annoying. If you are a man who refers to yourself as a girl I will find you tiring. I may want to knock your block off. It will definitely happen if you form a cliquish team. No excuses Yigit or Zac!

    I hated Morgan as a person but the man was INCREDIBLY talented as a pastry chef. I think Danielle came a long way in the competition, but didn’t deserve to be in the final three. Not compared to Heather H or even someone like Eric.

    That said, the clear winner in the last challenge (and that’s really the only one that counts as that’s what the judges were voting on) is Yigit. I mean really – Morgan’s souffle collapsed! Danielle did a better job with her four course dessert menu than Morgan’s
    “light” themed desserts – of which one of them wasn’t even the appropriate color for his theme. Yigit’s was the clear winner.

    There is some revisionist history going on if everyone thinks Yigit was all about tolerance and sweetness and light. Doesn’t anyone remember he and Team Go Diva belittling other cast mates and snickering behind their backs? Morgan was no saint, but Team Go Diva met the bully definition, too, on many occasions.

    • Annette

      Team Go Diva had their little clique and it was annoying. I thought Gays would be more tolerant of others themselves as they are always complaining about being accepted themselves. Hypocrites! Morgan was robbed.

  • hoppoh

    “Singing show tunes is not annoying.”

    Uhhhh, yes it is.

  • TeeJ

    So frkng glad that you won. Hated Morgan from the start. What an A…hole! You so deserve it. Congrats! :)

  • Andrew

    I’m glad Yigit won, and I’m also glad he’s now single.

  • Nathan

    Morgan is arrogant jerk and Daninelle had no telent

  • Rachael

    So Glad Morgan did not win. he may of had telent but did not deserve to win becasue of his arrogance. what goes around comes around.

  • mary

    when do we see the next group. i m excitingly waiting

  • Maureen

    This was predictable from the start as it is with all of these reality competitions – they would with the guy with the flair and is fierce and that was Yigit. And besides Morgan wasn’t gay – that was his big handicap.
