Fox's MasterChef faked crowd scene -- PHOTO

Fox’s MasterChef cooked up a hilarious blunder by doctoring a scene that shows hordes of people trying out for the show. In the opening sequence of Gordon Ramsay’s latest cooking competition, there’s an American Idol-style shot of an excited crowd waiting to audition. The voiceover claims “thousands upon thousands lined up” to try out for the show’s second season.

The shot was first posted on Reddit when a sharp-eyed viewer noticed the doctored footage at the start of Monday’s fifth episode.
