Johnny Iuzzini, Calphalon Granter

When we first saw Johnny Zs on Top Chef last night, we were confused — is this late-night Cinemax? — but we soon realized the dual role the seductive pastry whiz was to play: guest judge and guest shill. The latter role isn’t one that he seems too pleased by, though: If you watch this clip of him leaning randomly against two boxes of Calphalon pans, the poor fellow looks like he was just asked to subsist on Drake’s cakes for a week. (It makes it even better that the pans were a prize for a tofu steak marinated in beef fat and that he was forced to say, “Here you go, guys,” through gritted teeth.)
