Project Runway Season 12 — A REVIEW

For twelve season’s, it’s been consistently clear that Tim Gunn is the star of Project Runway. Until now, the show has minimized its most-important player. Sure he appears in the workroom, but his coveted critiques are edited down to a short screen time, leaving the viewers always wanting more. This season, things changed. Gunn now gets to “save” an ousted designer when he disagrees with the judges. It’s brilliant — and its shocking it didn’t happen sooner. As for the season’s other changes, the jury’s out on the post-runway garment talk, but one thing’s for sure. Zac Posen must go. Yes he’s talented, but he’s extremely difficult to watch. He seems like a self-important prick with no personality. He lacks Michael Kors’ sense of humor, and he has zero chemistry with Klum, whose personality is so far on the other end of the likability spectrum I naturally assume tension between the two. And last but not least, I’m completely aghast at this season’s contenders. They all seem mentally unstable, making this more of a clown contest than a designer showcase. If they’re choosing the best in the country, can’t they find talent and normalcy?

Keibler on Clooney: “It Wasn’t Going to Work”

Stacy Keibler deserves a medal for her post-Clooney media wrangling. When asked about her romance while co-hosting The View, Keibler proved herself a class act, simply saying she doesn’t prioritize marriage, and she’s grateful to the time they shared. When Walters read her a quote about Clooney’s anti-marriage stance, she smiled sweetly and took the card “as a memento.” It’s clear that Keibler is a pistol in a pretty package. Only a titan could handle that.

Adrienne Bailon Disses Robert Kardashian Tattoo — OOPS!

I learned two things today. First, I learned that there’s a show called ‘The Real,’ which can only be described as a poor man’s ‘The View.’ Second, I learned that Adrienne Bailon is not very appreciate of the Kardashian who propelled her to fame (see Rob) Watch her discuss her “ratchet” ass tattoo below, and take some time to look up that word, since she used it excessively in the clip.

The View Pokes Fun at Amanda Bynes — Crossed the Line?

Though I’m a massive fan of The View, I’m also The Dishmaster, and even my favorites will get taken to task for bad behavior. On a recent episode, a supervising producer of the show saw Amanda Bynes, and publicly recounted her bizarre behavior while laughing and attempting to take photos as if the girl is some kind of zoo animal.

First, if someone is legitimately mentally ill, isn’t it evil to publicly document, expose, and laugh at their behavior? Sure she tweets, but mentally ill people should not be held responsible for inserting themselves into the public eye, given that they are not of sound mind when they do so. It’s horrific, and the ladies of The View should be ashamed of themselves for this one.


Elisabeth Hasselbeck Says Goodbye: New Room with a View

Despite the world of criticism she received for her polarizing public opinions, she sure stood firm, and for that — Elisabeth Hasselbeck deserves praise on her way out. It isn’t easy being the only Republican on a power-house panel, and she was certainly unafraid to speak her mind. Hasselbeck will be joining Fox & Friends in September. Watch her goodbye speech below.

Kris Jenner Explains North West — Kim Kardashian’s New Airline

To be fair, the title is a joke — but so is Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s poor baby’s new name. And those cruel new parents didn’t even give this little girl the option of a middle name to opt out of their preposterous pick. Watch Kris Jenner justify their choice on The View.
