Here they are the next season of Project Runway hopefuls. The move to Lifetime is official and the seventh season will begin on January 14th. The city of choice will once again be New York.

Project Runway Returns!

Let choirs of angels rejoice! The fashion heavens have parted the sea of legal battles and a ray of sun hath risen “Project Runway.” Birds are singing in jubilation, children are parading in the streets singing of the return of Tim Gunn and Heidi Klum.

Bravo and Lifetime have been battling over reality hit, “Project Runway.” Finally, all regards to the fate of the show have been legally settled and will return to tv. People has confirmed the final season, which has already been shot with a finale filmed at New York Fashion Week last month, will make it air this summer.

Sadly, the show will not return to it’s original home. Lifetime won the rights and everything will move from New York to Los Angeles. The reigning judges panel will remain with Heidi Klum, Michael Kors and Nina Garcia. Tim will also be there to mentor and guide the rising designers. (Yay for me. I can stalk Tim Gunn better this way. Er…I mean worship from afar.)

The show has gathered a celebrity following. Last season we were treated to a few guest judges that ranged from L.L. Cool J to Natalie Portman. Jennifer Lopez was due to be a final judge, but backed out last minute because she stubbed her toe…had the trots or something ridiculous like that. Season 6 will feature Christina Aguilera, Eva Longoria Parker and Rebecca Romijn. (I am hoping Eva is also stricken with a wicked toe stubbing and will be forced to be replaced.)

Bravo is replacing their fashion reality jewel with another style challenging show. The creative title for the replace is called, “The Fashion Show.” This sounds like an disaster waiting to happen. Isaac Mizrahi, who owes me $39.95 for some bed sheets that lasted 2 months, is joining forces with Kelly Rowland. I can just picture Kelly trying to work it like Heidi and treated the eliminated guest to her rendition of ’N Sync’s “Bye, Bye, Bye” while Isaac dances in the background.

Real Housewife, LuAnn de Lesseps, Getting A Divorce

The “Real Housewives of New York” are down for the count…or countess I should say. It seems that Countess LuAnn de Lesseps and her husband the Count have parted ways. Oh no! Who will boss the poor housekeeper, Rosie around? Who will forget to feed the dog? Who will wave to Victoria as she is shipped off to boarding school?

It seems the Count has a wandering eye. It probably didn’t help that he spends most of his time in Europe while LuAnn spends her days wandering around New York spending his cash.

Via The New York Post:

“She got wind he was seeing somebody and he didn’t answer her when she called. He finally sent her an e-mail saying he was with an Ethiopian woman in Geneva and he was serious with her.”

According to her rep, LuAnn and the Count will remain “friends” for the sake of their children. I, however, am inclined to believe this friendship has more to do with alimony payments than children. A source also adds that LuAnn has no intention of making this into a bitter divorce.

Although I am completely addicted to this show, which airs tonight at 10:00 PM/EST on Bravo, I must admit the Countess is a piece of work. This divorce announcement comes only a short month before her book, “Class with the Countess” is due to be released. That’s classy!

Top Chef Contest Feels Used for His Body

I am “Top Chef” junkie. Food and tv is a stellar combination.

Last night Jeff McInnes was FINALLY sent home. He works at some restaurant named after a lady self gratification device, DiLido Beach Club. After finally get his boring self kicked off the show (ho please, you are no Carla) he whined to People that the show used him as some kind of “sex object.”

People Via MSNBC:

“Q: How do you think you’ll be remembered on the show? What impression did you leave?

A: I think the show used me as some kind of sex object. Every single show that I’ve ever seen, they have me with my shirt off in the beginning — which is kind of strange. I don’t run around the house naked half the time like they portrayed me. It seems like a camera was always following me around trying to find me whenever I’m taking my clothes off to change in the morning or at night. So, to be used like that is always fun.”

WHAT? If he did strut around in a state of undress I didn’t notice. He is about as appealing as soggy broccoli. So here is another open letter…

Dear Soggy Piece of Broccoli,

You are not that hot.

Love,

Hollywood Dame
