OHMYGOD. I thought those were Gina Neely’s hands!!!
Why did he paint his nails pink? And how many coats of gloss is he sporting? 12?
those are not the fingernails of a dude.
Those look like some bad, curved Lee Press On’s from 1988.
I knew it was a man though because the ring gave it away!
I pegged them for Jamika
At least he’s putting effort into keeping them trimmed and clean, unlike some people…
Trim and cleaned is one thing. Looking like Dolly Parton is another.
Oh, Big Girly, that ain’t right.
I honestly thought it was Gina Neely. However, he gets kudos for matching his shirt. Yikes. Dear Lord, that’s just wrong. Wrong, I tell you!
Well, at least his nail polish matches his shirt. I can barely get my socks to do so…
While the pink and hi-shine may be a little much, I think highly of a man who can take care of himself.
Just a good buff and trim next time, tho, Mr. McCargo.
Pink French … that is just 20 kinds of WRONG!
I agree with TheOtherErin. Keep ‘em clean, just not pink and glossy. XD
I noticed Aaron’s manicure when his show first started to air. It weirds me out. Gina wears LOUD nail polish. I guess Aaron’s nails go with his earrings. In spite of the kid that pops in and out of the show, I’m not too sure which side Aaron butters his toast on.
I thought the surprise answer might be Aunt Sandy’s new transvestite friend, but Big Daddy? ewwww!
I KNEW it was McMushmouth. Don’t ask me how, maybe it was the chunky ring, but I called those as MAN HANDS right off the bat.
How metro of you, Big Daddy. Between this and the pink shirt, you’ll have invites to Pride parades all over the country.
Nice pink nails…very classy.
It’s a man baby!!!!!!
I KNEW IT! Before even reading the choices, I knew it! HAHAHA Classic!
Haha. Big Metro-Daddy.
Leave Big Daddy alone. He is da man.
I knew it! I have noticed Aaron’s manicure on several occasions…
The only men in my life sporting nails like that are my GBFs.
Lemme axe yu dis. What be wrong with paintin up da nails?
That’s totally unhealthy though. What if the polish chips off into the food. This is totally a food fail.
I went to a culinary school and we got yelled out for having our nails did and our hurr all fancy when we can’t put it under our caps. And lawd all mighty would she get maaad if we done had on acrylic nails.
Is there reason why this guy needs to use his hands to mix up bowls of macaroni salad like he did on one episode ? I almost hurled when I saw that. Even with highly coiffed nails etc.. it’s still gross. Maybe his target clientele accept mixing food with your hands, but I don’t.
looks like big daddy needs to partner with micheal from NFNS and have their own show similar to the Neelys. they can play their brand of grab ass.
Zexy!
I agree with Kyle on the whole hands in food thing…
Is it just me or does anyone else kinda shudder when you enter a restaurant and they proudly have up some sort of signage that says something along the lines of “hand-made X” or “We proudly make our X by hand”…ewww!!
Big Daddy puts the MAN in manicure. ;)
Not only does the camera add 10 pounds, it also adds high gloss nail polish. Zesty!
Pegged it for McCargo right away! So full of himself, of course he’ll head for the nail salon with that fat pay check
Seriously, HOW DID THIS GUY EVEN GET ON TNFNS??? He is a horrible cook, a horrible speaker and he looks like a AA Mr. Clean. Pink fingernails?? Seriously! The Food Network is trying everything to force this guy down our throats. If I hear HEAT, FLAVORS or DOWN again, i am going to Puke!! Here is a example: I am going to add some HEAT to this dish by throwing DOWN some peppers that will add complex FLAVORS to this ice cube.
At least those paws look better than the face.
Oh sweet Jesus. Something was telling me it would be him, but I chose to ignore it.
after subjecting myself to extreme torture watching his sandwich show on Sunday, I am not surprised…I have seen a lot of strange mani’s on black men, including the ever-popular “leave my pink nail l-o-n-g” for whatever conclusion you can draw from that….his idea of making “every holiday should make you think of sandwiches” philosophy is so low-class I almost heaved…the “Da Spot” chicken sandwich eating scene is almost from a horror flick, watch as the huge monster mouth comes in for the kill from the side view, it is truly horrendous. Also PLEASE PLEASE Food Network, tell this guy he doesn’t need to “talk ghetto” on the show to be “authentic”…I hate that he never uses the word “OF”…i.e. ” I gotta get this sandwich out the oven” it is out OF the oven…he is horrible and I still can’t believe he won last year….yuck!
Wow you people are VERY racist. His nails are not painted pink! It the coloring under his nails you morons with the clear coat he has on his nails that’s making it look that color. So what if he has nice manicured nails. Losers.
KissMyAss, not hardly. I’ve seen his nails before. They’ve never been that pink. It has nothing to do with his race. The only one throwing that word around is you. So blow me.
Pink Nails? Well, I don’t think it’s specifically pink nail polish, but instead of a clear gloss I imagine it’s the one tinged Pink anyway… not my favorite. But anyway… what real man doesn’t love the color pink anyway.
Yes, it’s surprising that a man has pink nails, but once again… that’s still incredibly unsanitary to be handling food with nail polish on. Mmm… shredded parmesan cheese with flakes of nail polish. DEE-LISH!
@KissMyAss – I was scrolling through these comments just waiting to find someone crying racism foul. Thanks for not letting me down! I would have been disappointed had somebody not done it. Made my morning.
Hey! His fingernails match his shirt! He must be a DIVA!!
You guys are stupid.. his nails are not painted they are BUFFED. They’re shiny as hell but they’re not painted.. jeez
KissMyAss,
As a sensible African American, there was no racism in the quotes from those who were telling the truth about the nails. Hell, RuPaul is better at choosing nail colors than this twerp.
So sorry to disappoint you but the only thing that offends me is the colors of his nails and his shirt. ICK!

@JIMBO,
So just because you’re African-American, you are the authority on what is considered racist or not? We are all comprised of various ethniticies; we know what racism “looks like”.
Anyway, to the commenters who were bothered by him putting his hand in the food, there is nothing wrong with doing that if he is cooking at home. Also, you see Ina and Paula do it from time to time. I don’t see a problem with it. If he were cooking at a restaurant, then that would be something different.
Memoria
I was making a point stating that this is not about race and that the comments were not in the vein of racism. This was about the strange quirks of various Food Networks personalities. KissMy Ass brought the race issue up, not me. So don’t think I’m an authority on racism because I’m not. I’ve lived it, but I don’t let it get to me. I just know that I’m better than anyone who’s racist. So drop it.
I actually don’t call them personalities. I consider them caricatures. Rachel, Paula, Robert Irvine, Duff, Bobby Flay and most of what’s left of Food Network are caricatures that thrive on being annoying, self-serving and
just plain eccentric. Like Aaron, for example. The website and the nail polishes are examples of that. Sandra Lee’s obsession with being the most famous FN caricature to head toward Betty Ford is another.
I made my point. Now I’m going to bed. Goodnight.
I agree with the caricature part. TFN has become a joke.
I thought for sure they were Pat Neely’s….bwahahahahaha. His look I think is a high maintenance as Gina’s!
I have commented before on that guys manicures. He & Pauler were on a show together & he had nicer hands than her!
I don’t care what ya’ll say Aaron is cool and I guess since I have grown up in the south, I can understand him just fine…so what ! he cares about what his hands look like…sounds like being ready for the camera if you ask me…though…nail polish should be omitted for health reasons….I like the guy! At least he is ‘for real’!
