Melbourne, October 29 (ANI): Miss Universe Australia Rachael Finch is turning on the heat with her culinary skills- she has entered the semi-final on Celebrity MasterChef.

The beauty beat SBS Dateline host George Negus and Sydney Swans player Ryan O’Keefe to reach the next stage.

Finch apparently wants to get rid of the stereotype that models generally don’t have a preference for food.

“Travelling around the world, wherever you go, people think that models don’t eat,’ the Daily Telegraph quoted her as saying.

“I can tell you I love food and love cooking, and that’s why I really wanted to go on the show. I’m half Ukrainian, I’m always eating,” she added.

She won the judges praise with Atlantic salmon and crepes, apart from winning the pressure test with a complicated scollop and truffle tart.

Australian cricketer Simon Katich, INXS vocalist Kirk Pengilly, Biggest Loser trainer Michelle Bridges and Olympic swimmer Eamon Sullivan are some of the other contestants who have made it to the semi-final. (ANI)
