Project Runway scandals

Ooooh! Major controversy!

This has got to be Project Runway's nastiest, most controversial seasonto date!

First keith got kicked out because he brought pattern(?) books which is a big no-no as stated in the contract. It was especially suspicious for him because he's not a woman's wear designer and yet he won the first challenge. He still denied this vehemently and in the latest PR reunion show, he maintains he did not use it and, get this, he claims that the books were deliberately returned to his room, like a sort of a set-up. Apparently, he surrendered the books previously. Another excuse, he supposedly was unaware of anything in the contract that these kinds of books were prohibited! Everyone else did but him. It's either he's playing dumb or he's just plain dumb because I'm not even on the show and I know. I mean there has to be restrictions, right? In Survivor, you can only bring one personal item, In Amazing Race, you can only use the money provided in the show (you can beg or borrow), yadda, yadda. There wouldn't be much sense to the competition if you can bring pattern books? There was also speculation circulating that the sketches he submitted to PR were photoshop sketches of other (famous) designers' collections. Nad there are pictures to show proof, too. Bad, bad boy!

Now, Mommy Laura has accused Jeffrey of subcontracting sewers as evidenced by
1. Jeffrey's runway collection have very minimal or no alterations needed,. In Laura's words, not one button left to sew. Which, for all those who have followed this season religiously, it's unlike Jeffrey. Plus he was finishing his showroom collection at the same time he was making his PR clothes. If Laura, Michael and Uli, who were wonderful sewers could not finish all the little details in time, how much more having to do two sets at a time?

2. The leather pants does not mirror Jeff's rockstar pants in one of the previous challenges. It was stitched to perfection, which as far as Laura is concerned, it was not the quality thatJeffrey is capable of. It was brought to Tim Gun's attention and it was investigated. Next week's preview includes Tim saying "sorry", the anguish on Jeff's face and him crying on Uli's shoulder. This can mean that he was vindicated and those are tears of joy, or his secret was found out and he's shamed himself for eternity. Ok, that last part was a tad bit exaggerated. But I know for sure he showed at Bryant Park so does that mean the accusations have no basis? We shall see.

Is it just me, or are Uli and Jeffrey exceptionally close? Uli seems to gravitate toward jeffrey the most and she defended Jeffrey from Laura's accusations. You can see a little bitch in her, no? Or it's probably just the German in her. You kind of see the same feistiness in Heidi, in fact. Is it possible that Jeffrey was right in claiming his bad-ass attitude was just a product of editing? He still made Angela's mom cry and that's inexcusable as far as I'm concerned. Maybe PR will release the unedited version, that should be interesting to see. Let's find out who's the real bitch!
