Lakshmi was seen at the Emmys in a Naeem Khan gown.
‘Top Chef’ host Padma Lakshmi, who is having an exceptional year with the release of her memoir, will be next seen at the annual Advertising Week, in New York City.
She will be headlining at Advertising Week, the annual celebration of the industry people love to bash, but which underwrites most people’s media consumption, reported New York Post.
Lakshmi will be part of the CEO Connectors session on Tuesday, discussing how she built her own business.
Lakshmi has her own line of home decor at Bloomingdale’s and food products under the Padma’s Easy Exotic brand. Singer Sting also will be on hand at the D&AD Impact Awards.
People magazine reported that Lakshmi, who was the talk of the town with her Naeem Khan gown at the Emmys, relaxes her strict diet when filming for ‘Top Chef’. And how!
Lakshmi, the former wife of author Salman Rushdie, revealed that she eats between 7,000 and 8,000 calories a day of chef-crafted dishes, at the show’s sets.
“It reflects light and it’s just a single layer of silver sequins, like real metal paillettes, and probably real silver knowing Naeem,” Lakshmi explained to People, of the dress she wore at the Emmys. “But it’s very unforgiving, so I worked out a lot, oh my god, leading up to the Emmys. Because I had just come out of filming Top Chef, so I was eating a lot.
