The eclectic cast of Famous Food includes: Heidi Montag ("The Hills"), Danielle Staub ("Real Housewives of New Jersey"), Jake Pavelka ("The Bachelor"), Ashley Dupre (singer), DJ Paul and Juicy "J" (fellow Three 6 Mafia rappers and Academy Award-winning artists) and Vincent Pastore ("The Sopranos").
