Celebrity chef and media mogul Rachael Ray may be penning a poignant memoir, but a sarcastic someone is about to beat the star to the punch in publishing a book about herself. Every Freaking Day! With Rachell Ray by Elizabeth Hilts ($12.99) will parody the media mogul's monthly magazine, Every Day With Rachael Ray.
The 64-page book is full of saucy lines, such as, "Hey kids! If 30-minute meals are good, wouldn't 30-second meals be even better?"
The guide, "Rachell," played by a model who is a dead ringer for Ray, provides "super-caffeinated" commentary along with recipes. Hilts, a bestselling author, explained:
She's very easy to parody. She has a lot of very recognizable mannerisms: talking with her hands, singing to the food, referring to food as an almost-human entity.
What does the real Ray think of the parody? According to her publicist, she hasn't seen it yet. No doubt come September, we'll be checking this out. Do you think this book will fly off shelves to Rachael fans and foes alike?

yay! first to comment! anyways:
This is pretty funny... Every FREAKING Day with Rachell Ray.
1And she does resemble RR, just not as Joker-esque.
2i'm so excite about this! i used to be a fan of RR but now - not so much. i think that it's funny that someone's going out there to parody her and i can't wait to hear if there's any success!
3I think it sounds hilarious and can't wait to check it out. I kinda dig RR myself, but can still find the humor in it.
4Funny. I don't think she will care. any publicity is good publicity.
5Funny and really cute. I can't stand Rachael Ray, she's too obnoxious for me, so I'm glad someone is taking a stab at her.
6Why can't I see the pics on this post?
And I love RR and just think it hilarious how much she puts everyone in a tailspin - it's so silly.
7Can't stand RR, going to definitely read this one
8That's hilarious! I'm definitely not a fan so this could be great!
9I haven't bought any of the real RR's books, so why would I buy this? I think I'll save my money for a great restaurant next week.
