'You would have thought she was filming a scene for Real Housewives of Atlanta the way she carried on. She cursed at the producers, badmouthed the judges and ranted: "Without me this damn show will fail",' a source close to the production told Daily Mail Online exclusively.

'She did everything except twirl around in circles as she does on Real Housewives; the only problem was, the cameras had stopped rolling!' the source added.

Moore was outraged that the show's judges - celebrity chefs Anne Burrell and Rachael Ray - sent her home early for preparing what they called 'an overcooked piece of fish'. 

The former Miss USA took particular umbrage with Chef Burrell, who criticized Moore for wearing an inappropriate wardrobe and six-inch stilettos in the kitchen. 

During her post-show blow-up, Moore said that Burrell was 'jealous of her beauty' and 'had it out for me the entire time.'

No one could reason with Moore, who displayed similar antics during her stint on season seven of 'The Celebrity Apprentice'. 

Daily Mail Online previously reported that Donald Trump told Moore during the taping: 'You're the most evil woman I've ever met in my life'. 

Star magazine reported that she was 'holy terror to the crew' who demanded 'special treatment and extra days off'.

The 45-year-old reality star is now part of the season nine cast of the cooking competition series that also includes actress Nicole Sullivan, reality star Michael 'The Situation' Sorrentino, comedienne Loni Love, actress Barbara Eden, comedian Tommy Davidson, TV host John Henson, actress Mindy Cohn and actor Matt Dallas.

Both producers and some of her fellow celebrities on Worst Cooks in America tried to calm her down, but she would not budge.

'Producers of the show kept trying to get her to leave. They needed to tape the exit scene with her and she refused to go. They needed her to tape her farewell commentary and she refused to. She was dropping F-bombs like no one they had ever seen before,' the source disclosed.

Hollywood legend Eden, 84, was most appalled by Moore behavior. 

She said to fellow cast members: 'This is what happens when you start calling any ole person a celebrity. Those awful reality shows reward such uncouth behavior and breeds people like Kenya.'

Former In Living Color star Davidson started cracking jokes about Moore to the delight of the fellow contestants. 

'He said she was reality TV's Bernie Sanders - grumpy, mad and refusing to go despite their time being up,' the source recalled.

After more than two hours, Moore's agents convinced the hotheaded TV personality she had to leave the set before producers had security physically remove her. 

Even on her exit she made a scene. 

'I'm TV gold you a**holes. This season will suck without me,' she screamed as she finally stormed out.

'It's safe to say you'll never see her on another Food Network show or any series in the Scripps TV family of networks ever again. She's ruined that relationship for good,' our source concluded. 

The Food Network did not respond to Daily Mail Online requests for comment.
