Is Heidi Klum going to lose her shit and auf everybody? Is Tim Gunn going to be able to make it work? Who will Nina Garcia stab with her heel? Time-sensitive questions, people! So given the current situation — which keeps Lifetime from airing the show, and leaves its status on Bravo with a very giant cursive question mark — here's how the decision is going to affect interested parties… |

At first, the negativity was subtle. Bravo execs kept quiet as they stole Runway’s brilliant production team, Magical Elves, away from the show in an exclusive deal. And then the more obvious signs arrived. Project Runway’s fifth season, and the last for Bravo, premieres on Wednesday. And by the time it arrives, and certainly by the time it wraps, its varnish will be worn, damaged, or gone altogether. So just how is Bravo systematically sabotaging the Project Runway brand? |

If you’re Cindy McCain critic Tim Gunn and have the uncertainty of what lies ahead for Project Runway, you start sniping away at the brand any opportunity you get. While Runway’s fifth season begins the march to its end on Bravo on Wednesday, Gunn, who has signed to remain with the show when it moves to Lifetime, can be seen planting seeds of negativity… |

We previously informed you that Tim Gunn sat down with TIME for their Q&A institution, "Ten Questions With…" During the discussion, after being asked which potential first lady he preferred. Gunn took a poke at Cindy McCain's taut face. It was such good fun that we're posting the video, so you can hear it from the homo's mouth. Gunn also dishes on the dreaded sloppification of America, living on a budget and which Project Runway contestant he most loathes: Vincent Libretti. |

TIME magazine recently asked fashion gay Tim Gunn about which potential first wife her prefers, Michelle Obama or Cindy McCain. Here's his reply: "Oh, no contest, Michelle Obama. From a fashion viewpoint, Michelle Obama looks so comfortable and relaxed in her style and her fashion, and she exudes that. She has a presence that gives you confidence in her. Cindy McCain looks like someone has twisted her pony tail into a knot and tried to give her a face lift." [TIME] |

Our colleague and long-lost chum Cord Jefferson currently resides in Saudi Arabia, where he's doing the right thing by donating a kidney to his father. And, according to Jefferson's peepers, he may not be only "friend of Queerty" in the oil-rich country: "Um, I think I just saw Tim Gunn carefully surveying a menu in front of a restaurant in Saudi Arabia. I couldn’t confirm it was him, because I was with a lot of people who wouldn’t “get it,” but: that silvern hair!" On another note - Jefferson, get your ass home! We miss you! [MG] |

Silver-haired homo Tim Gunn had a solitary Thursday night, poor thing: "[Gunn] was at The Townhouse last night. Not very friendly. As I walked over to say hello, (he was alone and looking lonely) he mouthed 'go away.'" [Gawker] |

Fashionable homo Tim Gunn had some choice words for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's closet on last night's Late Night with Conan O'Brien. The Bravo super star and Conan were discussing the New York Senator's sartorial philosophy, of which Gunn does not approve: When she was in the White House I really thought there was hope for her. And then she became the senator from New York and I thought 'hurray, hallelujah, she's from New York, she's representing us, her fashion will really be ramped up,' but I think she's confused about what her gender is. She's so mannish in her dress, and I believe the suits are probably made out of Kevlar. I just don't get it. We actually kind of dig Hillary's trans-friendly attire. It sends a clear message: "I may have a vagina, but I can fuck you up like a man," which will surely win over some Republican voters. |

Actor Joins Other Televised Gays For 'Out' 100
As we mentioned, the year-end issue marks Darryl Stephens' first official foray into the out and proud world. Mr. Stephens joins other television titans such as Tim Gunn, Queer As Folk writer Russell T. Davies and uber-gay judge David Young. Taken together, the gay group - and others - are "The Serialists & The Channelers". Though he readily appears in the issue, Stephens remains mum on the sex part of his sexuality. …We can also offer one long-anticipated quiet confirmation: [François Rousseau photographed] Darryl Stephens, who has declined to discuss his sexuality while playing a series of nuanced gay roles. He doesn't exactly talk about it, but he proudly joins the other queer honorees in our pages. Well, it's a step in the right direction… |

This year they lamented a drop in the nancy numbers, citing only 40 gay characters on network television. Media Week, however, points out that many reality television show personalities veer toward the queer. GLAAD entertainment media director Damon Romine insists GLAAD's in the right, First, he said, when broadcasters announce in advance their scripted plans for the upcoming season, “those plans don’t always include what reality shows are scheduled, and who has been cast on those shows.” Even when gay contestants are announced, Romine added, “It’s not a given that they’ll last on a series.” |
