Despite being named an honorary mayor for a day, the Food Network star emphasizes his focus on serving the community through his culinary expertise rather than political aspirations.
Guy Fieri, the iconic Food Network star known for his "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" and infectious personality, has unequivocally stated that he has no political ambitions. In an interview with Fox News Digital, Fieri expressed his desire to make a positive impact through his love for food and entertaining people.
"I think I can do more politically just being a positive force, positive energy, entertaining people, feeding people, supporting them with philanthropy," said Fieri, who recently served as emcee at Sammy Hagar's Hollywood Walk of Fame star ceremony.
Despite being named honorary mayor for a day in his hometown of Ferndale, California, Fieri remains steadfast in his commitment to staying out of the political arena. "You know, sometimes messages get muddled when you try to put the politics to it. I think there's people who do a good job and people who need to do a better job. But the reality of it is, nah, I'll just stay in my lane. I'll do what I can do best," he explained.
Fieri's passion for food and his unwavering focus on making a difference in the community are evident in his numerous philanthropic endeavors. He has supported various organizations and initiatives aimed at fighting hunger, supporting small businesses, and providing food to those in need.
In addition to his culinary pursuits, Fieri is also dedicated to raising his two sons, Hunter and Ryder, to be self-sufficient and driven individuals. He emphasizes the importance of education and encourages them to pursue multiple degrees. "I've told them the same thing my dad told me. My dad says, 'When I die, you can expect that I'm going to die broke, and you're going to be paying for the funeral,'" Fieri revealed.
Hunter, who has been working alongside his father for years, is already following in Guy's footsteps. The young star has created his own contract with Food Network, became the top salesman for the family wine brand, Hunt & Ryde, and is working towards his master's degree.
Fieri firmly believes in the power of community and the ability of food to bring people together. "Ferndale's just this amazing, angelic little town if you've ever been to it," he said of his hometown. "If you ever saw the movie 'Outbreak' with Dustin Hoffman that was filmed in Ferndale. And there's so many amazing people, so many amazing stories, close to the beach, we have great fairgrounds, there's this horse race, racetrack, all these artists are there, Victorian buildings. I mean, it's really, it's a town to be super proud of."
While Fieri may not have political aspirations, his influence and positive impact extend far beyond the kitchen. Through his culinary expertise, entertainment ventures, and philanthropic efforts, he continues to inspire and uplift countless individuals, proving that one can make a meaningful difference by embracing their passions and serving their community.
