Selena Gomez Gets Schooled by Gordon Ramsay (and Yes, There's Cursing) During a Lesson on 'Selena + Chef'

Mar. 15, 2025

Gordon Ramsaymay not have calledSelena Gomezan “idiot sandwich,” but he’s still one harsh critic on the upcoming episode ofSelena + Chef.

This week, theOnly Murders in the Buildingstar invites theKitchen Nightmareshost as a guest chef on her HBO Max showSelena + Chef.The episode airs on Thursday, and PEOPLE has an exclusive clip of the pair’s fiery interactions in the kitchen.

In previous episodes and seasons, the guest chefs have joined virtually and guided Gomez digitally, but Ramsay gives the star her first in-person lesson.

In the clip, the first glimpse at theHell’s Kitchenhost’s hot temper shows when he directs the “Lose You to Love Me” singer to put the ribeye steak in a pan. After she does, he tells Gomez, “Wrong f—ing pan, that’s my non-stick pan for potatoes.”

Chaos ensues in the video as Ramsay repeatedly says, “Next one in,” as Gomez continues to look frazzled. After several demands from the chef, the actress finally understands her task and puts a second ribeye in the pan.

Meanwhile, Ramsay runs out of the kitchen and shouts outside a window, “Next one in! Next one in, please! For f— sake, somebody help me!” Ramsay’s outburst causes Gomez and her longtime friend Raquelle Stevens to burst out in laughter.

Viewers can expect more cursing, laughing and cooking in the full episode, as well as information on Ramsay’s charity of choice.

As with its first three seasons, every chef will highlight a different charity in each episode; so far, the series has raised $400,000 for 26 nonprofit organizations.

Unlike previous seasons of the show, which have taken place atGomez’s Los Angeles home, this season has a change of scenery.

The Malibu beach house Gomez serves up dishes in might look familiar to some viewers as it was featured in the Disney Channel showHannah MontanaasMiley Cyrus’s character’s family home, a rep for HBOconfirmed to PEOPLEin August.
