Famous folks compete in E!’s new reality competition seriesCelebrity Beef. Heading to E! in August,Celebrity Beefis hosted by comedian and actorJoel McHaleand features a variety of celebrities competing to create the ultimate dish despite the various comedic challenges leveled their way. You can get a sneak peek at the series by watching the official trailer below, and you can watch the show when it premieres on Aug 15, 2025.
Each week, an episode ofCelebrity Beefwill follow two celebrity contestants, pitting them head to head in a cook-off. The idea is that the show will allow real-life celebrity “beefs” to be settled through a cooking competition, giving them a chance to finally “squash their beefwith knives in hand, spices on the rack, and ready to prepare the best dish this side of Hollywood Hills.” The celebs will also delve into the inside scoop of their rivalry.
McHale’s hosting duties have him also serving as prosecutor, judge, and jury, having him create “twists and turns with various challenges throughout the showdown.” Winning each particular challenge will have the winner awarded to certain advantages, such as exclusive ingredients, as the competition moves forward. Meanwhile, the loser of each round will also be punished, such as swapping out their knives for gardening tools.
At the end of the competition, each contestant will present their final meal to McHale, and after a taste test, the host declares the ultimate winner, ideally to help the duo squash their beef once and for all. Trophies will also be honored to winners along with a $10,000 cash donation to a charity of choice.
