http://www.buddytv.com/articles/hells-kitchen/exclusive-interview-vanessa-of-19024.aspxIt has to be tough to throw your heart completely into a competition, only to be forced to go home due to an accident beyond your control. That was the situation Vanessa found herself in when she packed her bags and left Hell's Kitchen in the middle of last night's episode. The chef wanted to continue, but after seriously burning her hand with some hot oil during last week's dinner service, she decided that it would be best for her to take herself out of the running. Gordon Ramsay was sympathetic to Vanessa's issue, and was feeling so generous that he chose not to eliminate anyone else last night.
Today we had a chance to speak with Vanessa and see how her hand has healed, what the atmosphere was like in the kitchen, and who she thinks has what it takes to make it to the finals. Read on for the mp3 and complete transcript of the interview.
