Heidi Klum Names Her Daughter Lou

heidi-klum-baby-bump-2

Heidi Klum has given birth!! This, no doubt means that she will be back into her “I was nine months pregnant and still skinnier than you” clothes the day after tomorrow. Anyone know the German word for bitch?

In true Hollywood fashion, Klum and husband Seal have decided upon a rather unusual name for their newborn daughter: Lou.

Yes. That’s it. Lou. Like Lou Ferrigno. Or Lou my husband’s friend who is usually mean to me out of love. Lou.

Seal and Klum managed to wait a surprising three days to announce the birth.

Via People:

“It’s difficult to imagine loving another child as much as you love your existing children,” Seal writes. “Anyone who has a family will tell you this. Where will one find that extra love? If you love your existing children with all of your heart, how then can one possibly find more heart with which to love another?”

“On Friday, Oct. 9, 2009, at 7:46 p.m., the answer to this question came in the form of our fourth child and second daughter,” he continues. “Lou Sulola Samuel was born, and from the moment she looked into both of our eyes, it was endless love at first sight. She is beautiful beyond words and we are happy that she chose us to watch her grow over the coming years.”

Lou joins the ranks of other celeb babies born this year including Ellen Pompeo’s daughter, Stella Luna, and Nicole Richie’s son, Sparrow James Midnight.

Project Runway Season 6 Episode 2 Recap

project-runway-season-6

Last week we had someone nearly quit before they even set their fingers on a sewing machine, a model went down the runway essentially nude and they faced the most boring challenge ever. (Click here to read Project Runway Season 6 Episode 1 Recap)

The designers begin the show by talking about the first challenge. Althea just can’t wrap her mind around the elmination of Ari. Really? She is confused by the elimination of someone who cranked out a dress worthy of an SNL space skit in which the Coneheads hit a disco and experimented with coke? I bet she thinks Donald Trumps weave is awesome too.

Heidi comes out an announces they will be designing a “pregnancy chic” look. Rebecca Romijn waltzes out and demands something that makes her boobs looks fantastic but allows her to show off her twin baby bump. This is a slightly better challenge and I have hope for the season.

Logan is scared of pregnant women and babies. I suddenly feel a connection with him. The designers strap bumps to their mannequins and most are confused as to wear the strap ons go. I am sure this is a constant issue. Qristyl is once again freaking the funk out at Mood. Girl is spilling stuff around running around like she’s at a sample sale. Tim tells her to calm down and probably slips her a downer.

Fabric starts to form on mannequins and Chicken Little (Malvin) is wrapping a towel around his mannequin and calling his look “Motha Hen.” Good bye Chicken Little. It was lovely meeting you and your fluffy mohawk. Of course, Althea loves his little egg themed look. The kiss of death. Ra’mon is shizzing himself because Nina, despite being on downers at the last challenge, told him he was playing it safe the first round. Mitchel is prancing around with a gigantic pair of brown shorts. He wastes presious time letting the girls put them on.

Project Runway Approacheth

project-runway-season-6

Yes my darlings! I too am shaking with excitement like one of those rats on string that wannabe socialites prance around in Louis Vuitton bags.

Project Runway is fast approaching as we mark down the days on the calendar until August 20th. Lets just hope Lifetime won’t ruin it with weepy beaten women who channeling their inner J.Lo as clients. This will be the debut of PR on the channel. In the words of RuPaul lets hope they “don’t f**k it up.”

Yours truly will be doing recaps and occasional live blogs of the show. Until then enjoy the lame commercial for the return of the show. It was interesting until the cut the bit of me chasing Tim Gunn around begging him to sign my underwear.

Karl Lagerfeld Slams Heidi Klum and Seal

heidi-klum-nude-in-gq-germany-march-2009-1

I make it no secret that I cannot stand Karl Lagerfeld but adore some of his creations. It’s a love hate relationship. Now I am seriously considering cutting the bitch should his comments be true.

According to reports, he went on a scathing rant attacking Heidi Klum and her family. Lagerfeld wasn’t shy in agreeing with the Germans regarding Heidi’s weight in February. Most attacked her for being “too heavy” after posing completely nude on the cover of German GQ. Karl was one of the voices accusing her of being fat.

He lashed out again and the jealousy didn’t stop at her weight. He claimed that no one in the fashion world know who she is. His rationalization is that his pal Claudia Schiffer doesn’t know who she is.

Per The Sun:

“I don’t know her. Claudia doesn’t know her. She was never in Paris, we don’t know her.”

Hmmm…that’s odd. He claims not to know her, but knows she is a model and married to Seal. Karl even went as low as to attack her husband’s skin.

“I am no dermatologist but I wouldn’t want his skin. Mine looks better than his. He is covered in craters.”

That is beyond low. I doubt Klum is sweating his words. She has created a successful empire for herself and recently guest edited for German Vogue. Plus he really shouldn’t be the one to point the chubby finger. Their once was a pudgy Lagerfeld who was substation ally more tolerable. So I would be careful if I was him. Karl is quickly becoming the Star Jones of the fashion world.

Heidi Klum Expecting Fourth Baby

Congratulations to model Heidi Klum and singer-husband Seal who are expanding their beautiful family! According to E! Online, sources confirm that Klum is expecting another baby, and that she is a little less than four months pregnant. Word of the couples happy news apparently leaked when sketches of Klum in a gown redesigned for her growing belly had somehow made its way onto the Internet.

Season 7 of “Project Runway” is set to start filming in NYC this summer, which means the supermodel will once again be working while heavily pregnant. Hmmm… wonder if we’ll see any maternity-design challenges happening? The happy couple already have two sons together, Henry Günther Ademola Dashtu Samuel, and Johan Riley Fyodor Taiwo Samuel. Seal is also the adoptive father of Klum’s 5 year old daughter, Helene “Leni” Klum whom she had with Italian businessman Flavio Briatore.

Wow. Four kids all under the age of 5…. She must be the Wonder Woman of Moms!

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.

Hayden Panettiere Getting Her Own TV Show

The Panty Pirate from “Heroes” might be getting her own show. To which I beg the TV Gods to reconsider.

Hayden Panettiere has been meeting execs to pitch ideas for her own show. While most are calling for her character to be yanked off her current money maker, she will be sticking around the tv world according to on set spies.

Recently she had a meeting at Tower Bar inside L.A.’s Sunset Tower Hotel. This followed a couple of other meetings with top tv executives in the hopes of finding someone to pick up her idea. According to sources, she is just looking to produce the show. Her goal is to achieve Heidi Klum-like status with a fashion related show circa “Project Runway.”

Great gobs of Gucci! May style and good sense win out over the delusions that Hayden could possibly rank herself with Heidi-Fiercest of the Fierce Bitches -Klum. Perhaps she is better suited for “Little People, Big World.” Although I love that show…so maybe someone should just drop a house on her.

Golden Globes 2009 Winners List and Photos

The 2009 Golden Globe Awards took place last night. I am sure you were enthralled with every moment. Just in case you missed it because you were watching “Star Wars: Return of the Jed” instead of Ryan Seacrest droll on about his favorite hair products.

This must be the year of the fugly hair. Poor Drew Barrymore looks like is wearing RuPaul’s recycled 1998 wigs. Others look like they simply forgot to go and get their hair done altogether. Christina Applegate has an enormous chunk sitting across her face.

The award of Golden Globes 2009 Fashion Disaster goes to…Heidi Klum! WTF? She looked like an emo stripper. Seal had black painted fingernails to MATCH Heidi’s. Did good taste take a vacation this year? Renee Zellweger wins second place as fancy granny from the burlesque show down the street.

Meanwhile it was reported that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie snubbed Seacrest in favor of Billy Bush on “Access Hollywood.” (Insert 5 minutes of giggles here.) He tried to “laugh off the incident” and stated that they were just trying to get into the awards. As he said this, Brangelina gave their few seconds of droll questions to Billy from Access.

The full winners list is after the fold (Click Read More for the list), but here is just a brief rundown of the big categories. (I will update as the winners are announced.) Yes, Heath Ledger won the Best Supporting Actor award. He deserved it. “The Dark Knight” director, Christopher Nolan, accepted the award on behalf of Ledger.

Christian Siriano Sings Payless Deal

It’s like lessons on how to stay relevant. It is hardly fashion news, but I had to share the fallen ego of the Project Runway winner.

Christian Siriano, winner of Heidi Klum Minions Work for Free show, has inked a deal with Payless shoes. He is known for openly bashing other designers. His favorite victims are those ho bags from “The Hills” who call themselves designers. At one point he was designing garb for Victoria Beckham, Heidi Klum, Vanessa Williams and celebs of that nature.

On his way “up” he has signed a deal with the affordable shoe store for a line of shoes and handbags due in fall 2009.

“I’m so excited to design and create with such an amazing brand that is all about fashion and trend but, most importantly, is also about affordability,” said Siriano. “I’ve already been working with the Payless Design Team in New York, and I can’t wait to see how they will take the high- end shoes and bags I’m designing for the runway and turn them into pieces that everyone can buy. I’m all about the runway and the sidewalks!”

You can get your recycled idealism in shoe form for the bargain price of $25-$45 next February. His collection for the shoe source will be featured in his New York show.

Is it just me or is he like the next Isaac Mizrahi?

2008 Victoria Secret Fashion Show Photos

It was the Night of a Thousand Thongs. The 2008 Victoria Secret Fashion show brought out the top Victoria Secret Angels and some celebs. Usher performed on the runway as models stomped down the catwalk.

The show took place at the Fontainebleau Hotel in Miami on Saturday night. Heidi Klum, Miranda Kerr, Adriana Lima and Alessandra Ambrosia all strut their humps at the show that centered around the theme, “Return to Glamour.” Which could have fooled me because there was enough body glitter to make Mariah Carey nauseous.

Of course the black diamond bra was also featured. It is worth $5 million and was worn by Adrianne Lima. The piece was designed by jeweler Martin Katz.
