"Now, I love Halloween, but let's face it: spookalicious drinks usually suck," Nadia Giosia, host of the Cooking Channel's Nadia G.'s Bitchin' Kitchen, tells People. "They're all looks, no substance.

While wearing stilettos and cooking up a feast in a kitchen decorated with decapitated dolls, television chef Nadia G. has won the hearts of not just foodies but those whose idea of cooking is microwaving a doggie bag from the night before. Her Italian sass and bitchin' attitude is addicting. In fact, she recently received Logo's NewNow Next Award for "Most Addictive Reality Star."
Life for 31-year-old Nadia G., born Nadia Giosia, couldn't be better. A native of Montreal, her show Bitchin Kitchen has helped change stereotypes of those who love spending time in the kitchen. She's often referred to as the Julia Child of the Net generation. It all began almost a decade ago when she was running her own boutique 2.0 design/branding studio and felt something was missing. It occurred to her that what she needed was some food. In 2007 Bitchin' Kitchen debuted on the Internet and gained the attention of broadcast media.
