Padma Lakshmi
October 1, 2009 - The gorgeous Indian model, turned actress, turned author and Emmy-nominated co-host of cooking show, Top Chef, confirmed today that she is pregnant with her first child. (The father has not been revealed.)
Read the jaw dropping story about how she got that 7 inch scar that runs between her elbow and shoulder here. All I’ll say is that it happened when she was 14 and involved being airborne, a tree, and the jaws of life…
Lakshmi was born in Madras, now Chennai (Tamil Nadu) on September 1, 1970, and married Salman Rushdie, the author of the controversial, Satanic Verses, in 2004 and divorced after 3 years. More on Lakshmi’s career and life on Wiki and IMDB.
