I can’t lie, Tim Gunn is the only reason I still tune into Project Runway every week, and apparently, he can’t lie either— not that I mind.

After publicly outing everyone’s favorite Vogue-editrix-to-hate, Anna Wintour, about being carried down the stairs after a surely hellish escape from a fashion show, Gunn has decided to get gossipy about Taylor Momsen.

He calls her a diva and pathetic in an interview with E! News because she spent most of her time on her phone instead of looking at the lines she annoyingly couldn’t remember.

As refreshing as the honesty is, I’m a little surprised, not because I can’t believe Wintour would result to being carried down a flight of stairs or that Momsen could, in all her teen-angsty glory, believe her job was less important than whatever is on her phone. I’m shocked because I wasn’t aware Gunn had it in him.

It’s one thing to be brutally honest to reality show contestants about their lackluster designs, but to knowingly place yourself outside the celebrity inner sanctum because the truth is necessary and often more interesting than fiction may prove quite dangerous in the celeb-circles— however, it does make me want to read his new book, Gunn’s Golden Rules: Life’s Little Lessons for Making It Work.

Though reporting on the fashionably elite’s maddening behaviors may strike fear in celebrities whilst in his presence, Gunn is definitely winning the love and allegiance of the masses, not that parenting a catchphrase like “Make it work!” wasn’t worship-worthy to start.

I just found out that Rachel Bilson is going to be the guest judge on this week’s episode of Project Runway. She looks so cute, and since she’s such a style maven, I can’t wait to hear her critique of the the designer’s pieces— they work in teams this week, right? Yikes, there’s bound to be DR-A-MA!

It’s the first official day of school, and I’m already stressed. Perhaps, I’ll be able to find solace in tomorrow’s episode of Project Runway.

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009 at 10 PM ET/PT on Lifetime.

Check out the Project Runway Season 6 trailer, and tell me how you think it’ll turn out.

I know, everyone’s talking about it— the new season of Project Runway is in full swing and there are so many unanswered questions. What was Jerry thinking in Episode 1? What the hell is Blayne trying to do with that whole Girlicious shit? Who the hell are these rag-tag designers, and why does Suede keep talking about Suede in the third-person? Who knew all models were drawn to the same disgusting, silk-blend, bronze-vomit fabric. Why is Natalie Portman so cute, who said it was cool to date cast mates (Wes and Daniel), and most of all who is the spoiler culprit?

I honestly don’t have the answers to any of the questions, except maybe the Natalie Portman one (because she has the best genetic luck ever).

I’m not going to hate on Blayne for trying to be like Christian, but the fact of the matter is even “FIERCE” is played out, so stop trying to have a catch phrase. Adding ‘-icious’ to the end of adjectives isn’t cool— thanks for playing though!

Suede, every time you say your name in the third person, I get confused because I think you’re talking about the fabric.

Wes and Daniel dating wasn’t really a shocker because I read it on Oh No They Didn’t the other day— bringing me to my biggest question.

Who’s spoiling the season for us losers who actually want to watch the show? Actually, I was dead set on not watching it, but then I didn’t have to go into work yesterday and realized PR was the only thing on, but I digress. I looked at that stupid chart of who gets kicked off on Gawker, and I was either too uninterested to care or too stupid to understand it. All those boxes just made my head hurt. Oh, and by the way, ITS ALL WRONG. Thanks for trying to ruin my Project Runway fun, but consider it says Wes won two challenges including yesterdays, a.k.a. the challenge that got him eliminated, I’d say you need to go back to psychic school. Miss Chleo’s more accurate than you are!

What are your thoughts on Project Runway Season 5? Rant. Rave. Give us a new word to replace Fierce.

Who only gained 5 points on their stupid ProRun fantasy team? Unfortunately, that was me too.

And, who was absolutely in love with the dress Victorya created? That was Sarah Jessica Parker, well, and me of course.

The dress totally fit the style of the Bitten line, and I loved the plaid, racerback vest. It’s something I could and would wear to school, out to dinner, or where ever I needed to go. I heard that the dress will cost $19.98 and will be offered in black and burgundy. The vest will only cost $14.98 and will come in black and gray. I also heard the pieces will be sold in Steve & Barry’s around the US as early as today.

The last bit of info makes me worried because today is Black Friday, and I wouldn’t leave the house to go shopping even if someone was giving me a million dollars. If it did come out today, that means it might be gone by the time I try to buy it. My only hope is the Steve & Barry’s around me is faulty, as usual, and don’t put out the items in time. If any brave soul happened to go out to Steve & Barry’s today, did you see the dress and vest? Just wondering.

1. She is the host of one of my all time favorite TV shows, Project Runway (for those who live under a rock)
2. She’s a Victoria’s Secret Angel, and I’ve wanted to be one since I was a little girl (that won’t ever happen)
3. She’s had about 50 billion children and she still has a better body than me (okay, maybe that makes me jealous, but in a good way)
4. She totally started the whole spelling “offed” like “auf’d” (never will you see me doing this, but…)
5. Because of #2, she probably knows what Victoria’s secret actually is. (I assume the secret has to do with her being able to shed the baby wait in about 5 days.)
6. Finally, I love Heidi because of this video from TMZ.

In the video she’s Heidi’s touching her boobs and talking about being nipplely. She also states the obvious by saying she has great knockers (her words not mine). This may also be a part of Victoria’s have-the-perfect-body secret, self-realization. If we all go around saying we have great knockers and talking about our nipples, we might all have bodies perfect enough that we too will be nicknamed “The Body”. Actually, I think this might have just been bloopers for part of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show commercial (the fashion show airs on Dec. 4), but its funny none the less.

JEMMA SEPICH!

Jemma’s favorite contestant from last season was Stacy Estrella.

Congratulations Jemma!

On November 14th the new season of Project Runway airs, and its a real episode. Unlike the seasons before, this year will have no “Road to the Runway” episode, where we find out about the cast. They are just going to launch right into the season, and we’ll form our opinions along the way. Honestly, we think this is better because the casting specials are boring to us. If you want to meet the cast you can do so on the Project Runway website, but WE WANT ACTION!

Before we get to enjoy being glued to the TV for the entire hour of the PR season premiere (commercials too), we can waste an entire weekend watch the adventures of last season because the Project Runway: The Complete Third Season DVD comes out on Tuesday, November 6. The DVD has 15 extended episodes so we can giggle all we want at Michael Kors being “underwhelmed” and Tim Gunn telling the designers to “Make it work!”. Oh, and you can see all the pretty (and sometimes not so pretty) clothes the designers created last season all over again.

The best part is, one lucky Pink Rock Candy reader (that’s you) will be getting the awesome Project Runway: The Complete Third Season DVD for free. All you have to do is fill out this form. You have until November 8th to fill it out. Only one entry will be counted by the same name or email, but you can get 1 extra entry with each friend you refer to the contest, so start gossiping. On Friday, November 9th we’ll tell you who won (we’ll contact the winner by email also).

THE GIVEAWAY IS OVER! CONGRATS JEMMA SEPICH!

My only problem with Hedi is, she always looks gorgeous. Everytime I see her she’s either a bazillion months pregnant and glowing or has perfectly flat abs and glowing. I propose she comes out with a work video for us non-superhuman types!

Its terribly funny how people are asking for his autograph in the background, and in one of the videos a girl asks for a picture with him and instead of saying “cheese” he said “derelict”, perfect!

I wonder how much food I’d have to give him to design my entire fall wardrobe?

So for those who didn’t know, the last Project Runway winner Jeffrey Sebelia’s clothing company is and has been called (it’s not a new thing) Cosa Nostra. But that’s beside the point, I was cruising through Ron Herman Online and I saw this incrediblely cute dress (yes cute, don’t kill me Jeffrey). I’m on a stripes binge right now, so the striped bust and empire waist made me swoon. The dress also has a great tiered ruffle skirt that I love love love. After reading the very informative write up, I found out Jeffrey named the dress after “the most magnificent orchid species in the world”, the Angraecum. (Hey Jeffrey, that’s really sweet. Where’s the edge?) Actually it made me want to lurk him a little more and I ended up adding him as a friend on Myspace. So if you love Jeffrey as much as I do and haven’t already added him you can check out his profile here. I miss Project Runway!
