MasterChef Kids 2: A Bet on Scandal

A new season of the cooking show "MasterChef Kids 2" recently launched. It appears the producers have again decided to make a bet on endless feuds and scandals. This year, the children are assigned the same roles as the adults: the troublemaker, the intellectual, the not-so-bright one, and so on. The main motto of this season is to insult and shout louder, even though the actual goal should be cooking.

In addition, participants are forced into practically the same personas as in the first season of the project. A prime example is yesterday’s episode, where a contestant was put on a crown, visually making her look like "little" Nastya, who participated in "MasterChef Kids 1".

According to some participants of the project, the show is almost entirely staged, as are all the others. In reality, only a handful of children cook independently. What viewers see is carefully directed. To achieve a good visual and create a scandalous atmosphere, it is sometimes necessary to shoot more than a dozen takes.
