Dear Mr. Fieri,
I remember first watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives and really enjoying your show a lot since you get to cruise all over the U.S. eating and drinking awesome stuff. The only thing that I am taken aback by is that you have a mid-90's OC-bro vibe going on with your style. The bleached hair, uniquely groomed facial hair, permanent sunglasses, etc. aren't helping your credibility.
They say we eat with our eyes. Well, I think the same would go for who we take culinary advice and opinions from. I know you are going for the young and hip look, but you're about 10 years too late with your style. It's hard to listen to a dude who's always looking like he's returning from a frat party at Orange Coast College.
Would you take dining advice from these dudes?
I know you have great taste in obscurely awesome culinary adventures, and I envy what you get to do on your show, but please leave behind your youth and the wardrobe that you have managed to preserve for over ten years.
I beg you Mr. Fieri, please stop dressing like the Peter Pan of Orange County. Your credibility is waning and I want to see you succeed. I think you have some great recipes and would probably be a fun guy to have a drink with, but just step aside from yourself and look what people are likening you to:
I hope you will understand that change is good and necessary for us all and that you should consider my advice. Guy, I don't want you to be a perma-bro or a fat little kid with spikey hair. I want you to be successful for years to come in both your culinary and entertainment career. I think you host a good show and are entertaining. Just ditch the whole look you have going on for yourself. I beg of you. You don't want to be remembered as the chef with bad fashion. Mario Batali already is a step ahead of you, albeit a small one.
Only you can prevent yourself from being 'that bro-dude' on the food channel. Oh, and the T.G.I. Friday's thing isn't helping your credibility either.
Sincerely Yours,
The Tasty Morsel
