And So This Is Monday...

Sigh.  Monday and a gray, misty one at that. 

Did have to laugh at the PR article in Newsweek: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6998851/site/newsweek/

It's so easy to love bitchy, honest, hysterical Jay : 

"I only did this show to get laid," says Jay McCarroll. Pity. He'll have to settle for being a new darling of the fashion world instead. McCarroll is one of three finalists in Bravo's sleeper cable hit  "Project Runway," {...}. This Wednesday, after 10 weeks of grueling (and gloriously bitchy) episodes, one contestant will walk away with $100,000 to start a clothing line. Who wins almost seems beside the point. The final three showed their collections during New York's Fashion Week this month, and discovered how famous they've already become. "This has just been f---ing surreal," McCarroll says. "I mean, when a girl licks your face and says, 'I want you to be the father of my children,' that's a bit excessive."  (Especially when said prospective father wears pale pink lip gloss. Hee!)

And easy to love Austin:  Austin Scarlett, a fave among the show's million-plus fans, claims to have "the smallest waist in three counties" and miraculously got through the entire series with perfect hair and makeup. "That's natural, darling," he says. "I roll out of bed like that."

 

And then, of course... there's Wendy:   {Wendy Pepper} is the show's villain, having admitted on camera that she's a back-stabber. "Let's just say they weren't strapping the Homecoming Queen sash around my neck," Pepper says, laughing. "But there must be something weird about the American psyche, because people are fascinated by me. They must sense my conviction."

Uh... yeah. Delusionally self-obsessed much?   And, heh, in conclusion:  "Wendy's not really a fashion designer," says Tim Gunn, a chair at Parsons School of Design and the contestants' beloved on-camera counselor. "She's probably great with a Simplicity pattern, but I wouldn't leave her to her own devices." Ouch.

To quote Tim, "Do not defend the shoes to me!"
