Tim Gunn vs. Kardashians

And the claws come out!

It seems style guru and my personal ‘mo boo, Tim Gunn isn’t feeling the Kardashian sisters’ fashion sense.

After unveiling the first of five lines the trio designed for Bebe at last month’s fashion week, Gunn had nothing nice to say about how the clothes made him feel.

Via The New York Post:

“I just think the Kardashians have an absence of taste and I don’t think that that should be perpetuated. I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty, snob, but it bothers me.”

He didn’t stop there. While making an appearance on the Joy Behar Show, Gunn let some more words about the sisters slide.

When asked what he thought about their clothes, he stated:

“[They] may have some sexiness to it, I find it’s largely vulgar.”

Kardashian sisters, please listen. Gunn is not the bitch to cross in the fashion industry.

Lindsay Lohan Banned from Fashion Week

Anyone who is anyone in Hollywood and the fashion industry is in New York for Fashion Week – except for Lindsay Lohan! She was deliberately left out from the gala fashion event because Lindsay was deemed as a “brand damager” by the designer’s team and now carries along with her the reputation of being a designer’s worst nightmare.

Per NY Daily News:

“A lot of designers, and especially Jill’s camp, don’t think she’s worth all the press she’d get their show,” an industry insider leaks, although Stuart denies that she banned Lohan.

But while Stewart may be denying the ban, there are two other people at Fashion Week who also have some pull in deciding who attends. Lohan’s ex-girfriend Samantha Ronson and her twin sister designer Charlotte practically run Fashion Week and holds the reigns on whos unfortunate enough to be banned.

“Fashion Week kind of belongs to the Ronsons,” says the source, “and Charlotte had Lindsay banned from both her show and after-party — just like she did this past fall.”

It had been rumored that Lohan would crash Charlotte’s party at the Avenue in NYC on Friday, but that never happened as she ultimately decided not to go at all. Could this be karma finally coming back on Lindsanity?

Justin Timberlake & Rihanna Secretly Dating – UPDATE

rihanna-and-justin-timberlake-dating-5

The rumor mill is churning hard again, this time with a doozy about Justin Timberlake and Rihanna. Rumor has it Timberlake and Rihanna are secretly dating, and have been for months, being spotted together quite a few times out in New York. Talk has been buzzing that Justin is getting ready to dump longtime sourpuss girlfriend Jessica Biel anytime now… and quite possibly not a moment too soon!

Per Showbiz Spy:

“Justin and Rihanna have been seeing each other for the past few weeks,” a source close to Rihanna told Showbiz Spy exclusively. “He is really into her and it’s only a matter of time before he dumps Jessica.” The source added, “It was at 10ak in NYC and they left together. They are seeing each other on the low!”

Biel and Timberlake have seemed to have quite the rocky relationship as of late, so this really shouldn’t come as any surprise. But this situation does sound an awful lot like a certain blind item that was posted a few weeks back.

Per NY Daily News:

“With their partners away, celebs have been using Fashion Week as an opportunity to play! Which two pop stars made sweet music on Sunday night after the gal gave the guy a private lap dance? Hope his longtime girlfriend doesn’t find out …”

Could it possibly be true? One could only hope! Timbelake and Rihanna’s chemistry between eachother is undeniable. If you have any doubts about it, just check out their video for Rihanna’s song “Rehab,” in which Timberlake wrote for the singer.

UPDATE: It appears we weren’t far off. CLICK HERE to go the updated story!

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.
