"The Insider" has learned that talk-show host and television chef Rachael Ray has undergone a surgical procedure.

Ray underwent surgery last week to remove a cyst from her vocal cord. A rep for the star tells "The Insider":

"After several months of vocal therapy and on the advice of her doctors, Rachael decided to have a benign cyst removed from her vocal cord, last week."

Ray's rep goes on to say: "According to Rachael's doctors, the minor, non-invasive procedure was a success and she is already resting at home. The hardest part for Rachael is going to be giving her voice a rest for the next week or so."

The bubbly star's daytime talk show, "Rachael Ray," airs weekdays.

  • Well thats good, maybe this dumb won't be able to talk for a couple weeks, or who knows, maybe we'll get lucky and the doctor will accidentally sever all her vocal cords! I only hope we're that lucky...

  • Hm, I suppose that would explain why she always had such an annoying voice. Now if only they could perform a surgical procedure to make her cooking actually taste good.

  • Can't stand this witch. I'm fine with her as long as she stays faraway from Porn Network, I mean Food Network. She should just stick to that crappy talk show of hers. End of.

    Anyway, good luck to her surgery.
