I have oogy feelings about Ping`s departure because I really feel that a lot of her problems were communication/cultural. But in the end I agree that her dress was the worst.
I agree with all of this. I honestly didn't think it was that bad on the runway (certainly not worse than some of the yawn-fests in the middle of the pack), but as soon as Heidi asked the model to take the drapery off, I saw exactly what they meant. I mean, it was a corset top with some fabric pinned to the butt.
I also loved Mila's look. I don't know that I would wear it, but if I saw someone else in it I would think "Wow, that person has great taste in clothes."
ABDC - If what they showed for the South is representative of the talent we can expect to see this season, I might not be watching. I really don't like how this is set up. What is it, three teams from the south, three from the east and three from the west? I guess the north doesn't exist? What if there are tons of extremely talented crews in the west? Only three get a chance because they want representatives from the south and east as well? I'd rather see the best of the best... not the best from each region.
Was that ABDC South show new? Comcast had it as a 2008 episode, so I thought it was a rerun.
Last call for anyone else wanting a "Best of" SYTYCD DVD before I delete them from the dvr.

Let me know by Monday at 8pm.
(Perkins I have one for you.)
YAY.
Some day, we should make plans to have dinner or something.
RuPaul's Drag Race starts up again tonight, and I apparently don't get Logo! WTF.
OK, now my tv is telling me I don't get VH1 either, and I know that's not true, so maybe I need to reset my cable.
A man I went to college with is one of the contestants on Drag Race this year. It is very exciting, although I do not have cable. His name is Pandora Boxx, if you see him!
