Nickelodeon star goes viral with tear-jerking video announcing show axe
Social media have been left tears at a heartbreaking video of Tiny Chef weeping as he found out his show had been cancelled on Nickelodeon after three years
It's the end of an era for Tiny Chef, as character announced the cancellation of his Nickelodeon show, The Tiny Chef Show, in a heartbreaking video.
The viral clip has left the internet in tears - even those who had never even heard of Tiny Chef. Before landing their own show on Nickelodeon three years ago, Tiny Chef began on clips on Instagram - and the social media world are now rallying around him.
Fans were left in tears after watching Tiny Chef, voiced by Matt Hutchinson, answering a phone call from Nickelodeon. "Cancelled? What do you mean cancelled?," he says. "But I have ideas that'll blow your minds."
"But we won an Emmy," he adds, with tears in his eyes as he tries to save the show. However, it becomes evident there's nothing he can do later on in the video. "I understand," he says wiping away tears. "I love you too, bye."
The heartbreaking video has gone viral on X, formerly known as Twitter, with those who had never even heard of the character shedding a tear.
One heartbroken user penned: "How did they make me care about this character despite never seeing a single episode," while another wrote: "I've never heard of you Tiny Chef... but I weep genuine tears for you."
"I've only known Tiny Chef for a minute and 16 seconds but I'm prepared to fight for him, Nickelodeon, you must pay," said a third, as another gutted fan penned: "Ohhh Cheffy, seeing you cry has broken my heart…"
"STOP I'M CRYING!" exclaimed another, with another echoing: "I'm ngl, I haven't watched this full video because I'm afraid I'll cry."
The show aired on Nickelodeon for two seasons, winning an Emmy for Outstanding Directing for a Preschool Animated Program.
Announcing the cancellation, the show creators said it was "very unexpected" as they thanked fans for their support.
"Tiny chefs cooking show has officially been cancelled (very unexpected)," they wrote on Instagram.
"We want to thank @nickelodeon for giving Chef two blamazing seasons and all the besties he made there. Chef wouldn't want anyone to blame his friends over there, he's just deeply sad he doesn't get to continue hosting a show he adores.
"Please let cheffy know how much he means to you in the comments he's really feelin this one."

Sophie dressed to impress for the evening out, and showed off her gym-honed figure in a mesh see-through crop top and leather trousers, which she teamed with some tie up heels. The 31-year-old looked like she was enjoying herself as she posed for snaps with her mate Cerys, who wrote "let's get feral" over the top of a picture of herself and Sophie. The alcohol then started flowing, with Sophie posting a video of a tray full of shots. She also turned "shot girl" as she carried a tray of drinks back to her table, shimmying in delight as she did so. The drinking continued as Sophie and Cerys downed their shots, before the former got up close and personal with one of her mates. In a video of her friend sporting some writing on her decolletage, Sophie added: "Had a fan ask for a picture so Georgia made me sign her t**s!" The evening out concluded with a "pit stop" at McDonald's on the way home, with Sophie treating herself to a large fries and a double cheeseburger. The wild festivities came after Sophie broke down in tears as she admitted she was struggling during an episode of the family's reality show 22 Kids & Counting last August.

The mum also acknowledged that her relationship with husband Joe Broadley had suffered since having children. "With me and Joe, we used to go out to cinemas, out for meals, go out shopping, do all sorts of things and it all stopped," she added.

MAFS star rushes son to A&E after brutal football accident as he shares pics from hospital
It comes just months after a similar hospital trip for the lad and dad medical woe MAFS star rushes son to A&E after brutal football accident as he shares pics from hospital Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MARRIED At First Sight groom sparked concern among fans after revealing his son had been rushed to hospital. The parent of one, who appeared in last year's E4 series, captured youngster Leo with a bandaged head after he received treatment in the medical ward. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 6 A MAFS star has revealed his son was rushed to hospital after an accident on the football pitch Credit: Instagram 6 Ryan Livesey documented son Leo's medical woe on his Instagram Stories Credit: Instagram 6 He entered MAFS as an intruder groom Credit: Channel 4 Ryan Livesey, who entered the Married At First Sight experiment as an intruder groom, showcased his brave seven-year-old offspring sitting patiently in the Paedeatric Emergency Department. He had a white bandage taped on the back of his skull with a bloodied wound visible underneath. Yet despite the drama, the youngster looked content to be playing a game on his hand held console. The TV star wrote on his Instagram caption: "A&E on a Friday night. "Leo's split his head open playing football." In the next slide posted to his Instagram Stories, Ryan revealed the wound in full glory. There were no further updates, suggesting the schoolboy is home and well. It is his second hospital trip in a matter of months, after he was rushed to hospital in December. He has previously described Leo as "my world, my purpose, my everything." RYAN'S HEALTH ISSUES Ryan was 22 when he learned he was going to be a dad, back in 2017, when he learned he was going to be a dad. MAFS groom bravely opens up about his battle with cancer saying 'it could come back' But his world was turned upside down three months later when he was diagnosed with bladder cancer. He fought the disease, only for it to return 18 months later. "Facing all of this at such a young age was the hardest thing I've ever been through," Ryan has said. He previously opened up to The Sun about how he discovered he had the terrifying disease after wetting the bed. Mafs couples that have stood the test of time Loved-up Tayah Victoria and Adam Aveling of series six fame had the first Mafs baby. The pair couldn't keep their hands off each other on the programme and quickly found their feet in the outside world, moving into Adam's Doncaster home. Just 18 months after meeting, the couple welcomed their daughter Beau. Season five couple Michelle Walder and Owen Jenkins also managed to make their marriage work away from the cameras and had their first child in December. Teacher Michelle, 29, has no regrets about taking part in the experiment. She told us: 'I just feel very lucky and thankful that it has worked out - and excited for everything to come.' Michelle and Owen were both sick of dating apps when they applied in 2019. Owen recalled: 'I had been out for some drinks with a friend after work. "While he was out for a cigarette I was scrolling on Instagram waiting for him to come back in. 'The MAFS advert was the last thing I saw, and I joked, 'Wouldn't it be funny if I signed up?' 'A few beers later when I was back at home I sent in the application, and the rest is history.' Another couple to make Mafs UK history is Zoe Clifton and Jenna Robinson. Despite a slight rocky start, where they clashed over Jenna's vegan lifestyle, the show's first same sex pairing are still going strong. They even have a successful podcast together called Life With a Pod. Jenna shed light on being involved in the show earlier this year when she told us: "We're not legally married, and I never felt like we were. I definitely feel the process makes you take the relationship a lot more seriously and having the help of the experts… if you can survive that process it sets a firm foundation for a long-lasting relationship." I started wetting the bed, it was really embarrassing but I put it down to having too much to drink and of course, I didn't tell anyone and hid it,' Ryan said. 'I'd go to the toilet and not feel like I was emptying my bladder properly. 'I'd have to go again 20 minutes later because I couldn't hold it in. He then noticed blood in his urine after a night out a few months later. Ryan was diagnosed with stage two bladder cancer, making one of the 10,500 people in the UK each year - and 29 per day - to receive this life-changing news. 'I was in complete shock,' Ryan admitted. Luckily, after two battles with the disease, Ryan is now in remission. 6 The TV star is a proud dad of one Credit: Supplied 6 The medical woe follows a hospital admission for Leo last year Credit: Instagram

Home and Away Tug star hasn't aged a day three decades later with lookalike son
Home and Away actor Tristan Bancks is best known for his role as Tug O'Neale on the popular Australian soap and, since leaving the show, has landed a string of impressive roles From its debut in 1989, Home and Away became a must-watch for soap fans With its gripping plotlines and the beautiful backdrop of Summer Bay, it's no wonder audiences continue to enjoy the Aussie soap after more than three decades. Over its impressive 36-year run, Home and Away has seen a host of stars grace its screens, including Tristan Bancks, who played the character Tug O'Neale. From 1992 to 1994, Tristan was a regular fixture on the soap, having been chosen from among 200 hopefuls for the role. As Tug, Tristan found himself at the heart of numerous high-profile storylines, tackling issues such as mental health and bullying. However, after two years, he decided to step away from the show to explore new opportunities. After leaving Home and Away, Tristan, now 50, relocated to London for a short time where he secured several presenting roles, including hosting the game show Don't Try This At Home. Upon his return to Australia, Tristan resumed his acting career, with roles in the short film Dust and the 2002 feature Beneath Clouds. He has also ventured into directing, with his short comedy Soar being showcased at both the London Film Festival and Melbourne International Film Festival, reports OK!. Tristan seemingly remains ever-youthful, and has carved out a successful career as an award-winning author, penning popular children's and young adult books such as Two Wolves, The Fall, and Detention. His latest work, Scar Town, hit the shelves recently, with Tristan attending a flurry of book launch events. With over 5,000 followers on Instagram, the ex-soap star frequently offers glimpses into his life as a writer, sharing moments from writing retreats, literary talks, and book festivals. Beyond his professional achievements, Tristan enjoys a private life with his partner, editorial and wedding photographer Amber Melody. The couple are proud parents to two sons and although he keeps much of his personal life under wraps, Tristan occasionally shares heartfelt posts about his family on Instagram. He posed with one of his sons for a picture on Instagram in September last year, saying: "First Father's Day with my eldest son living away in Melbourne. Missed him a lot but he's doing great things. And I did get to have lunch with my youngest son and his girlfriend and my mum and her husband. And my beautiful wife who I've been lucky enough to bring up our two fine boys with. Also, Lego!" And one Valentine's Day, he shared an affectionate post for Amber, referring to her as the "love of my life". His Instagram caption read: "Happy V Day to the love of my life, Amber Melody. [man and woman in love emoji] Great start to the day with brownie pain au chocolate and croissant French toast (breakfast of champions) at @bambam_bakehouse. :)." In another heartwarming post, Tristan uploaded a photo with his sons during a magical trip to Disneyland Paris, expressing that travelling with his family is his "favourite thing to do." His books have won and been shortlisted for many awards, including a Children's Book Council of Australia Honour Book, the Prime Minister's Literary Awards, and the YABBA children's choice book awards. Scar Town was named the Children's Book Council of Australia's Book of the Year for Younger Readers. But his talents don't stop there, as Tristan's website reports that "he is currently working with producers to develop a number of his books for the stage and screen."
