Russian TV host Ksenia Borodina publicly challenged the online crowd that attacked actress and cooking show creator Yulia Vysotskaya for the recipes shown on Eat at Home. The remarks came as Borodina addressed followers on social media about the situation.
Clips featuring Vysotskaya have surged across the internet, yet the momentum has not been for praise. Viewers joke about old footage and question her culinary choices. Popular targets include desserts like cheesecakes paired with grilled meat, overheated or burnt finishes, and even raw cheesecake versions. Fans also dissect recipes from Vysotskaya s cookbook, sparking debates about technique and taste.
Borodina urged supporters to pause before they comment, noting how simple it is to visit a person s profile and flood posts with negativity about a recipe. If anyone has found a scapegoat in this situation, Borodina suggested it might be the moment to end the harassment and shift the conversation toward constructive discussion.
Media figures also weighed in. Journalist Ksenia Sobchak joined the conversation in defense of Vysotskaya, who had recently been teased over archived episodes of Eat at Home. The exchange highlighted how public figures sometimes clash over online feedback directed at food programming and its presenters.
Meanwhile, Laysan Utyasheva, a gymnast and television host, spoke up and extended an invitation to Vysotskaya. She invited the chef to join the show Brave Cooking with Laysan, an offer meant to showcase Vysotskaya s expertise in a positive environment and broaden the discussion beyond criticism.
