Interview with Tim Gunn!
Jul. 11th, 2006 07:48 pmGakked big-time from ohnotheydidnt - a long, *fabulously* dishy interview with Tim Gunn of Project Runway fame. He definitely tells it as he sees it! I was glad to see that it's not one of those "Oh, I'd love to tell you about that, but I can't" kinds of things. Tim's interview with Maureen Ryan appears here in The Watcher: A Chicago Tribune Web log.
OH MY GOD, I knew I hated Nina Garcia for a reason. Tim Gunn figured it was between Daniel and Santino. The judges liked Daniel's stuff. None of them were even discussing Chloe's things. The Fashion Week finale was all about Daniel, and it looked like he was going to win. So, what the hell happened? Tim Gunn speaks:
The runway deliberation went on for two hours. I was sitting with the legal department, and we were whispering, going ‘It’s Daniel, it’s Santino, it’s Daniel, it’s Santino.’
About an hour and 40 minutes into this, Nina goes into this rhapsodic soliloquy about Chloe and her collection, and throws into it all of her successes during [the season], and how everything’s been memorable around. It was going to Daniel, and [Nina] turned everybody around to Chloe. It was the most remarkable thing I’ve ever seen.
[snip]
She was successfully persuasive. She took it away from Daniel. Santino was never in the running. For a while he was, because of how they were talking about him, but they weren’t talking about Chloe at all! It was quite something to watch.
Oh my God. My eyes are *still* bleeding, just thinking about Chloe's awful prom dresses. Nina Garcia has no business anywhere near any magazine having to do with fashion or beauty. The woman's obviously addle-brained.
Unfortunately, it seems that Daniel V. has turned into a little diva, turning down fabulous job offers left and right. Also in Tim Gunn's own words:
My darling little Dan has become a terrible diva. And it’s really unattractive. [snip] And now he’s offending people. He’s offending the press. [snip] He’s been offered several jobs. He’s turned down everything. They’re not good enough for him. [snip] He’s not working for anyone. He’s going to every party in the world, he’s out all night. I’m just concerned. When I talk to people, and they say, ‘Oh, I just called him to interview him and I got a lot of really bad attitude out of him.’ …
Oh, Daniel. ::le sigh::
I love Tim Gunn.
