I'm So Excited...And I Just Can't Hide It...
Wednesday, July 12th, people!
But in case you can't wait that long until the Season 3 premiere of Project Runway, here are a few stories to hold you over:
The Boston Herald has an interview with host Heidi Klum on what to expect for the new season. I love when she says, "Our show is not about grinding up worms and eating them or seeing how long they can last doing some crazy stunt." Boo-ya! Take that, Fear Factor! Also, did you know Heidi hosts the German version of America's Next Top Model?
The L.A. Times has a "Life after PR" article, including a "Where are They Now?" slide show that features strangely innacurate facts about the show but is interesting nonetheless.
Over at MSNBC, Andy Denhart, who writes for reality blurred, wonders if Bravo is pushing too much of a good thing by giving us a new season so quickly after season 2 ended.
On the blog front, for all the latest PR news, there's the exhaustive Blogging Project Runway, which takes their love of the show and spreads it to every nook and cranny of this country. If you're looking for something a little more subversive, then head over to FourFour every week for Rich's hilarious, un-equalled re-caps. You can see what I mean by pouring through his Season 2 archives here. And, if you're so inclined, you can check out my own article about the show here.
Finally, the Chicago Tribune has a great, dishy interview with PR mentor Tim Gunn. It's kind of long but worth the time. He's so professional on the show - who knew he could be such a gossip queen? Not only does he trash Season 2 champ Chloe's winning collection, he had this to say about Season 2 runner-up and fan favorite Dan: "My darling little Dan has become a terrible diva. And it’s really unattractive. … He’s been offered several jobs. He’s turned down everything. They’re not good enough for him.” Ouch. Of course, by passing up Michael Kors' job offer, Dan has time for his own blog.
Hopefully, this can satisfy any PR fix you might have until the new season begins. Make it work!

Hey Dan - thanks for the nice BPR shout-out. Our tuning forks are in full vibration this week!
why does daniel have to turn out to be a prissy bitch?
OMG...I think I am going to pee my pants tonight!
I watched the "Road to the Runway" special that aired last night (actually my TiVo recorded it for me...he knows me so well), and I couldn't stop thinking of you and how gleeful you must be. They have some real characters on the show this season. Should be fabulous TV. Just as long as it doesn't interfere with So You Think You Can Dance, to which -- sorry, it's true -- I am seriously addicted.
Have fun!

Donny -- I just realized! Your other article on PR is the first thing of yours I read, and it made me LOVE you! My first comment on anyone's blog, ever, if I'm not mistaken....
Good times.

Trish, OK, Laura (whose comment is above) was just telling me about the awesomeness that is So You Think You Can Dance. I guess I have to check it out.
And, awwww, I provoked your first blog comment. Wow, I'm honored...
Donny, I came here today hoping to find a recap, complete with deliciously nasty asides. I hope one is in the making....

Trish, I don't normally recap individual episodes, but I might list a few highlights or something. Maybe I should consider recaps...well, it would be hard to top fourfour, so probably not.
