Trending Now: Celebrity chef slams Brooklyn Beckham and his cooking skills amid family feud – Fans React

EXCLUSIVE: Wolfgang Puck has dismissed Brooklyn Beckham as “not a chef,” as he savagely offered to teach him properly amid the 26-year-old’s ongoing Beckham family drama

One of the world’s biggest celebrity chefs has served up a damning review of drama-ridden Brooklyn Beckham’s culinary career.

Cheeky Wolfgang Puck – who is regarded as Hollywood’s top chef – even offered online culinary king Brooklyn the opportunity to learn how to cook. In a scathing putdown, Wolfgang Puck, who has cooked for the biggest stars in the world for decades, insisted that Brooklyn was not “a chef.”

Puck, who runs sleek celebrity hot spots including Spago, feels that David Beckham’s oldest son needs tuition and on-the-job training to be considered the real deal. The 26-year-old was treated like a culinary expert and star as co-host of the South Beach Food and Wine Festival in Miami, Florida, on Thursday (Feb 19).

The Austrian star expressed his dismay at Brooklyn and other social media food creators pitching themselves as experts without truthful training and restaurant experience.

Puck spoke on camera at the Keep Memory Alive 30th anniversary Power of Love gala in Las Vegas, which benefits the Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health and its mission to advance brain health care and research. Puck’s takedown of Brooklyn comes at a time when he is already caught in negative headlines over a feud with his parents, David and Victoria.

The Beckhams are not speaking with the 26-year-old and his wife Nicola following a raft of dramas, including a huge fallout at their wedding. Now the man known as the “gastro governor” has stuck the knife in over his future career. Discussing Brooklyn being considered “one of the biggest chefs on social media.” Puck fired back: “He is not a big chef.

“No, let’s not go that far. He is trying to be a chef. He is not a chef.” When explained, “he’s a big chef online,” Puck smiled: “He is, yeah, that’s not a chef. “A chef is somebody who runs a great kitchen, who makes great food. “Online it’s different.” Asked whether he could handle working as an apprentice for Puck, the star reacted: “He could handle it. He just has to learn.

“You know, maybe he can teach me a little bit about football, and I can teach him how to cook. “ Puck admitted that he is baffled at how many youngsters, like Brooklyn, become promoted as knowledgeable cooks in a couple of years rather than spending time learning on the job.

He feels many are more concerned with fame than with learning their craft. “The young people today have a short attention span. And they want to be a chef in two years. They want to have their own restaurant in three years and most of all they want to be on television they actually don’t care about the food they care more about being on TV, being on social media and doing all that stuff, instead of learning the trade, learning how to cook, learning how to organize, learning the business, learning about wine.

“In life, curiosity and learning that’s what’s all about, television it’s just a little topping of the cake, but it’s not what really excites me.”

Puck remains a powerhouse restaurateur across the US and the man charged with cooking at many important events, including the Power Of Love gala and the prestigious The Governors Ball after The Academy Awards.

His passion and ambition still burn bright at age 76. “I think if you’re passionate and you love what you do, you keep on moving forward. And for me, it’s really important not to sit still and to have purpose in life. Doing a charity event like this one is so inspiring, and it’s inspiring to see how the Las Vegas community comes together. So I feel like the little chef making the people happy and I think that’s my life.”

Puck prepared a delicious meal for guests at the lavish gala, which raises millions for the Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health, funding research, medical training, and no-cost support programs for patients and caregivers.

Since opening in 2009, the center has supported more than 152,000 program visits, offering everything from hands-on skill developing workshops and music therapy to educational seminars and access to the Lynn Ruffin-Smith library, and facilitated over 322,000 patient appointments, with more than 7,300 lives currently in its care.

KMA co-founder and chairman Larry Ruvo is proud of “three decades of fundraising that have fueled groundbreaking clinical innovation.”

Cleveland Clinic Lou Ruvo Center for Brain Health, which opened in 2009, provides expert diagnosis and treatment for individuals and families living with Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy body, frontotemporal and other dementias; Parkinson’s and Huntington’s disease, multiple system atrophy and other movement disorders; and multiple sclerosis.
