RACHAEL Ray has revealed she is ‘afraid’ to know what people think of her – after trolls created a nasty ‘hate’ website.
The celebrity chef, 56, welcomed fellow chef Anne Burrell on her weekly podcast I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead.
During their conversation, Anne asked whether Rachael thought about the way people perceived her.
Rachael replied: “I don’t, I never look at anything.
“I’m like, afraid to quite frankly.
“No seriously, there was a site called I Hate Rachael Ray for years and I’m like, well at least they’re watching.”
Previously on the podcast – which launched in October – Rachael admitted to being “petrified” and “nervous” in social settings.
The topic came up as she interviewed author Harlan Coben on the November 26 episode.
She revealed: “I am so scared in social, you gotta go to a Christmas party or here is an event, I am just petrified as I am not good at it.
“I know I am not.
“I like to try things I might be successful at and I know I am not successful at that. I just get nervous.”
This came after the TV personality prompted health concerns among fans with her recent videos.
