Overheard today at PopWatch HQ:
Editor1 (11:03:48 AM): OMG, I am so excited for tonight’s episode of Project Runway! Who do you think Tim Gunn is going to disqualify? It’s totally Keith, right?
Editor2 (11:04:40 AM): No way! Too obvious. I think it’s going to be Angela (pictured).
Editor1 (11:04:58 AM): Really?
Editor2 (11:05:40 AM): Homegirl from Ohio doesn’t know how to use a sewing machine or sketch. How did she turn out that whore-ific outfit last week without knowing how to sew? I bet it’s a bubble skirt from her vast collection of bubble skirts in her closet.
Editor1 (11:06:12 AM): Wha? You think she might have just used an existing skirt, sewed on some hair scrunchies, and sent it down the runway?
Editor2 (11:06:50 AM): Exactly! And that’s against the rules.
Editor1 (11:07:23 AM): I’d kind of love it if it was her.
Editor2 (11:08:47 AM): Totally. She should’ve gotten booted for designing something so fug in the first place. And her execution sucks.
Editor1 (11:09:17 AM): Interesting theory. Either way, though, I can’t wait to watch the dismissal. Tim Gunn’s brand of stern disapproval in the previews is oddly arousing. It makes me want to buy a Macy’s INC dress, sew my own label in it, and bring it to next season’s auditions.
Editor2 (11:09:38 AM): Arousing? Um, okay, I have to get back to work.
Editor1 (11:09:54 AM): Hey, wait, where’d you go? You’re not calling Human Resources, are you? Hello?
[EDITOR'S NOTE: I know you all already totally know who "Editor1" is. But who do you think will face the double barrel of Tim Gunn's rage and disapproval tonight?]

Keith is TOTALLY getting the axe- he’s such a trouble-maker, of course it’s him:
1) He’s the only one who seems to be proud of his flagrant disregard for the show’s rules and procedures.
2) Bravo is already milking his status as this season’s villain of the moment. The only way the show would get cut [edited] like that is if they’re using him to create as much drama as possible while simultaneously setting him up for a fall.
Mark my words…
I love the Angela theory!It would be the most satisfying rectification for her inexplicable survival the past few weeks. How can Heidi tell her that “we question your taste level” the week after she is uncooperative and yet she stays?? You have to figure it is someone who has been featured somewhat thus far so that it will have maximum impact. I’m concerned that it is not her though b/c one of the previews shows a big close-up of her in shocked horror/disgust mode at Tim’s disclosure. Thus, my vote remains on the impishly handsome and staggeringly arrogant above the rules Keith. He’s found ways to openly not follow assignments, so Lord only knows what he’d do behind the scenes. Can’t wait to find out!
I think Keith is too obvious – at least for submitting those jank sketches. I heard rumblings on other blogs that someone snuck out to go to a party and didn’t notify production. Or that someone used a pay phone to call home about them winning a challenge. I don’t think I want anyone in particular to go, but I wouldn’t mind so much if it were Angela or Keith. As long as Laura and Alison stay in I’m good. I love them long time.
Um, I hope it’s not Keith. His ego is ginormous but he’s so entertaining. Angela should have been gone already, I would LOVE for her to get shooed. That crazy dude, you know the one, could go too, though to lose him would mean no more hilariously over-dramatic comments such as “this was the nightmare of my life”. Yes, Angela must go. Please!
Unfortunately not Angela. In those horrid ‘this season on Project Runway’ previews, they show a part where Jeffrey tells her to pack up her arts and crafts bulls*it and go home. Alas, she’ll still be here a bit.
POSSIBLE SPOILER:
I’ve been trying to figure out the Jia (model) angle. She was in a horrible traffic accident and apparently had to miss one of the final Project Runway tapings. For the dog challenge, she was assigned to Vincent, so does that mean Vincent goes far? If so, let’s hope he gets his act together. Although we all know that they do switch models, plus models that have been kicked off sometimes do come back for the final three runway shows.
As for the disqualified person, I agree that it will be someone they’ve shown a lot of footage of (maybe Vincent, Keith, or Angela)rather than someone they’ve barely mentioned (like Michael and Alison).
it’s going to be someone from completely left field. Thats why they have focused the early episodes on Darkangela and Keith the playgarist. It’s just a little of editing misdirection.
The most interesting rumor I’ve heard (from a totally unsustantiated and unreliable source), is that Ula worked on her dog’s outfit back at the apartment, after they were supposed to have stopped, and so she’s the one getting the boot.
I think it’s going to be Laura. They’re going to find out that she has her five children hidden at the Atlas sewing faux fur like a Kathy Lee sweatshop.
I’m wondering if perhaps it is Vincent. I just saw a preview on Yahoo that looks like the designers are being broken into teams of three for the next challenge. They show all the teams interacting with each other over designs, except for Kayne, Robert and Vincent (who I assume are the last team). At the end of the preview, Kayne, Robert and Michael are discussing whether or not something someone did should be brought to the attention of the producers. Leading me to think perhaps Vincent did something. Who knows though. It could have been anyone, but, he is the only one not shown in the preview…I can’t hardly stand the wait.
what about the leak from IMDB from last week regarding keith? i thought it was leaked that it was him.
Keith is this season’s Santino, the guy we all luuuuv to hate, so it can’t be him. It won’t be Angela, who is too inept to break the rules. Plus, it can’t be the invisible people (Michael, Bonnie) because Bravo hasn’t established a connection to them yet.
So let me just scrunch my eyes close and chant for the next 8 hours:
PLEASE let it be Laura. PLEASE let it be Laura. PLEASE let it be Laura.
Maybe she’ll wear a fur-collared jacket for her big exit. How original!
daisyj: i heard that rumour too, but rewatched the last episode and uli said that’s how she ’sews at home.’ but i don’t think it was in reference to the dog outfit…
now, keith, i think, would be too obvious a choice.
i have no clue at this point who it could be!
i seriously hope tonights dismisal is not anti-climactic.
my bf and i can’t wait!
Please God, let it be Vincent. If I have to listen to his voice all season, I may run into the streets screaming. He is a bit of a troublemaker, so I could see him doing something stupid to get himself kicked off. He is a whiny, annoying little man and I cannot wait til he goes. I think it pretty obvious, he ain’t winnin!
SPOILER:
Just do a Google Blog search for “who gets kicked off Project Runway?” and you’ll find the blog that compares Keith Michael’s plagiarized portfolio drawings with the runway pictures he copied from. It’s Keith, folks, who gets sent home tonight.
Keith may be this season’s Santino but he’s not long for the world of Project Runway. How does a menswear designer churn out such beautiful dresses? How is it that his submission sketches look exactly like ones from reputable designers? They are featuring him a lot so they can get the most milage out of him. He’s a goner.
Santino may have been a snarky butthole, but he had an inherant quality that made you lurve him. Keith does not produce the same squishy feelings. Bye bye Keith.
I really hate that everyone is calling Keith this season’s Santino. I don’t love to hate Keith. I just hate him. At least Santino had a personality and a sense of humor. Keith is bland and an idiot (although I did like his last two dresses. The dress he won immunity for was ugly). I just hate him and want him gone. Anyway, whoever it is, I’m fairly sure it’s one of the male designers. Heidi referred to a “he” in an interview regarding the show. I’d be happy with either Jeffrey (Good designer but I’m tired of looking at those tattoos. Who gets their neck tattooed?), Keith or Vincent leaving. Anyone but Michael and Robert is fine with me.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and say I think it might be Kayne. I don’t know why, but I think there is a possibility it is him. I think I am the only one who actually likes Vincent. There is something sweet about him, or maybe it is just because he hates Angela. I really don’t like Michael at all and really don’t understand the Santino comparisons. I absolutely LOVED Santino. He may be my favorite reality show star of all time!! This question is sort of off in left field, but who else here thinks he would be great on “The Surreal Life”?
Wait!!!!! I do like Michael. It was KEITH I was talking about instead of Michael in my previous post. I don’t know why, but for some reason, I want to call Keith, “Michael”.
I think it will be Keith based on the rumor of the portfolio designs. Based on talent, I wish it were Vincent, but I have this awful feeling that I’m going to have to stomach him just like I had to tolerate Santino last season. It amazes me to hear people talk favorably of him here – in my opinion, he should have been voted off much earlier in Season 2. His ego is much, much bigger than his talent. His dress design week to week was very similar – just as Laura’s fur collar is getting a little redundant in this season.
Keith is only similar to Santino in the sense that he has a much bigger mouth than he has talent.
LOL! These posts are hilarious!! I especially enjoyed Jon’s “Laura own a sweatshop” theory.
I’m thinking it’s Angela too. Perhaps too obvious of a choice, but after her work the past couple of weeks, even the most fashionably challenge being can realize she has no business being part of this contest.
PR may be a reality show, but it is the only competition in which the contestants must actually have some talent, creativity, and originality in order to stay. Angela has neither of these.
Sadly, I think it’s Kayne as well. I saw a long clip from the episode on YouTube and I remember seeing Keith working with 2 other designers on an outfit. There were other designers featured in the clip and Kayne was the only one that I can remember was noticably missing.
What about Bradley? He always seems sorta out of it. Drugs?
It’s definetly NOT: Kayne, Robert, or Michael (per the Yahoo! preview).
It has to do with something that was done DURING the taping show (speceulation is that someone made a left the Atlas & made a phone call &/or went out to a party).
It’s probably not Keith b/c in the preview for “This Season on Project Runway,” they show Keith saying “I made three outfits” (which is this challenge).
Hopefully it’s not Ulli or AK b/c they’re awesomely fabulous.
As long as it is not Michael or Robert, I don’t really care who goes, but Angela should so go just for just having horid fashion sense and poor execution.
I agree that Laura needs to stop doing fur collars. But have you also noticed that jeffery always does a beige dress with some black in it. His 3 dresses so far have been very similar.
It’s definitly not Kayne and this is why… If anyone read the article on the People magazine site about the model that was hit by the bus, Jia Santos, she was assigned to Kayne… NOT Vincent. It goes on to say that she was assigned to one of the final three contestants. I have NO clue how People magazine let that slip, but geez.
So did Kayne switch Katia (his model now) to get Jia? Or is Jia just going to appear in the fashion show even though she was already eliminated?
Laura’s children being used as a mini sweatshop has to be one of the funniest theories ever! I agree that Keith is like Santino in arrogance only. Santino’s designs could frighten the socks off of me, but darn if his “Where’s Andre?” and Red Lobster comments didn’t kill me every time. There’s too much entertainment value in that guy for him to disappear. Surreal Life would be great for him.
Do you think Heidi might eventually make an All-Star Project Runway? Then I could have Santino back. Because I really need more Santino in my life.
And they could give Malan another shot, I feel bad for him that he got sent home so fast. And definitely Nick from Season 2.
I know it’s early to think about this but whatever.
Meanwhile, I read in Star that there was some controversy regarding Keith plagiarizing an outside design or something, and that Keith had no comment.
Does anyone know whether Keith showing outside designs was already addressed in the show? I was thinking maybe I missed something.
