I thought Suede got the look he was going for, kind of Lenny Kravitz rocker cool. That's what he described to Jerrell in the workroom and I think that's what he delivered. I could totally see Lenny rockin' that entire look in a video. For me, LL's critique was spot on in that it certainly wasn't a look that would work on stage in a big stadium during a performance. At the same time, those are not the directions that Tim gave. He just told them to make a look that represented their assigned music style, and it seemed like Suede did that. At least, way more than Kenley ever did. And his pants were impeccably done and fit Jerrell very well . . . unlike some others.
Survivor in two minutes, whoo!
I'm watching Tim Gunn on Craig Ferguson and it's hilarious! CF loves Project Runway, he's such a cute fanboy! He was talking about Kenley arguing with Tim and he said "I'm like, Bitch, please!" and Tim replied "I was thinking the same thing!"
Tim also agreed when CF said that Suede's outfit wasn't great, but Kenley's was catastrophic.
My love for Tim Gunn is unequaled.
Damn, I can't believe I missed that. I was awake too.
Speaking of famous people loving other TV shows, I was watching Ace of Cakes over at Food Network, and Duff, Mary Alice, and Geof all went to the Get Smart premiere with a phone booth cake and got to meet Steve Carrell and his wife, who said that they were huge fans of Duff's show and he was as thrilled to meet them as they were to meet him. It was really cute to watch!
There was also another great client on the show, who for his 70th birthday party decided to have a "live wake," complete with a New Orleans-style parade with a band walking down the street and the birthday-boy/faux-corpse drinking wine while lying in a casket atop a horse-drawn cart. Not a bad idea, to celebrate your own funeral while still alive!
TiVo decided to record
My Name is Earl
on both our tuners last night, so we missed the first 30-40 mintues of
Survivor.
No biggie normally, since they are usually just introducing people, but it seemed we missed one of the challenges. What was it and what was it for?
I'm watching the most recent Project Runway, and OH MY GOD, this is bullshit.
Tom and Lorenzo agree as well: [link]
I just want Michael Kors to say, "That crotch is INSANE" again. It's so often the truth!
Megan, they chose teams, schoolyard style (the oldest 2 starting the process) and then there was a race (at the end, up a pretty steep hill) with 2 goals: a) the first person from each team that reached the finish would get an individual immunity idol and the team that finished first would get an extra bag of corn/beans. The red team totally tanked, a theme that was continued later into the game.
The olympic winner was disappointingly horrible at that challenge.
