Trying to learn a new skill in quarantine? So is Selena Gomez! HBO Max’s newest show, Selena + Chef, features the former Disney darling at home learning to cook via video chat with famous chefs.
Selena proclaims herself as a bad cook and that she can barely boil an egg, I can relate. Taking place in her own kitchen with a set of rainbow knives that felt like a costar to the show, Selena learns to cook 2 different recipes from each chef. And each episode Selena and HBO Max announce they are donated $10,000 to a charity of the chef’s choosing, which feels nice to see especially because each chef is supporting a different type of charity. You’ll learn a lot and have a chance to give back!
In a time of stress, this show is a breath of fresh air. Watching a cooking novice stumble her way through the kitchen made me feel as though I was watching myself. We were able to see so much of Gomez’s personality. After being famously linked to so many high profile people, it was exciting to see Selena interact with her friends and family. You saw an endearing, funny, and curious side to Selena that I feel we’ve never seen before.
You can stream new episodes of Selena + Chef on HBO Max and catch it every Thursday.
