Liza Colón-Zayas from 'The Bear' Shows Off Burns from Filming
Actress Liza Colón-Zayas, who won an Emmy for her role in the series 'The Bear,' surprised fans by showing off the burn scars she got on set. The star was spotted at Los Angeles airport, where she displayed the marks on her hand left from working on the culinary drama.
According to the actress, the burn on her hand is a reminder of one of the episodes when she had to work with hot oil. Some injuries have already healed, but this scar she wears with pride, considering it a symbol of her dedication to the craft. Colón-Zayas admitted that filming 'The Bear' turned her into a decent cook, and now she feels confident in the kitchen.
Interestingly, Liza was chosen to announce this year's Emmy nominees. This is symbolic, as last year she herself became a laureate of the prestigious award for her role in the same series. Fans are wondering if she will have to announce her own show among the contenders, as the new season of 'The Bear' has received rave reviews from critics.
'The Bear' is one of the most talked-about series of recent years, which literally changed the perception of culinary dramas. The story of chef Carmy, who returns to Chicago to save his family restaurant, won over viewers with its realism and tension. Actors, including Liza Colón-Zayas, have repeatedly talked about how difficult it was to film kitchen scenes where real work was boiling.
In addition to filming, Liza also shared her culinary preferences. She said that at home she likes to cook comfort food that reminds her of childhood. According to the actress, her signature dish is something hearty and warming, especially pleasant to eat on cold evenings.
Fans have already dubbed her the 'queen of the kitchen' and admire her courage — not every star would agree to such risky scenes. Liza herself treats the incident with humor, noting that burns are just part of the profession, and she is ready to do a lot for the sake of art.
It remains to be seen whether the new season of 'The Bear' will bring the actress another Emmy statuette. For now, Liza enjoys the attention and continues to delight viewers with her bright roles, also inspiring fans to culinary feats.
