Best Food Network Chefs: Female

I maintain gender equality in all workplaces. I grew up living with my mother, three sisters, my grandma and even a female dog. My dad and I were on our in and often outnumbered by the estrogen-driven household.
That being said, I do not think that there are many professions that women can't do, with maybe the exception of king(fast forward to the 2:15 mark). But in my experience, women are generally better at cooking. That being said, the guys on food network are also very good (as can be expected from people that are paid to cook.) But I decided that the women and men on the Food Network need to have separate rankings.
If I could pick a female Food Network chef to cook for me for the rest of my life, here are my choices.
3. Giada DeLaurentiis
Specialty: Italian
I have written about the cranially heavy cook before (I still contend her dome is visible from space), and she specializes in Italian food, my well-documented personal favorite. So why is she not number 1 or at least 2? Well first of all, she annoys me when she pronounces mozarella cheese all italian-y, like mosssarelllllla. Second of all, and more importantly, she doesn't she me the versatility I need from an everyday chef. I'm sure she's capable of it, but I need to see it to believe it. Until then, she will have to settle on coming out of the bullpen.
2. Paula Deen
Specialty: Southern Comfort Food
You think of Paula Dean and what do you think of? The answer: butter. Paula is a southern belle (and active tweeter, apparently) and specializes in making the delicious food that your body hates you for eating (in no small part due to her love of butter.) Paula would be number one by a landslide if a.) I could eat better and b.) I didn't want to live past to age of 50.
3. Ina Garten a.k.a Barefoot Contessa
Specialty: Everything
Garten had an interesting path to cooking, but from everything I've seen, she is very good at it. Garten makes everything well; she makes awesome desserts, she makes awesome entrees, and basically everything in between. My mom has replicated many of her recipes and I have always enjoyed them. For my money, I'm going Barefoot.
