Design Star
 

Yet another reality show contest. But if you're a whore for home improvement/design/redecorating shows like I am, you may want to check this out:

Premieres this Sunday 9/23 @ 9pm on HGTV.

Oooh! Vern Yip (formerly of Trading Spaces) is one of the judges! Along with Cynthia Rowley & some other broad.

Poor Alice - she had to design a room in Larry Flint's Hustler Club. :shocked: And I'll bet Ramona's out real quick.

Anyone catch the premiere? Boy was I right about Ramona. I'm all for originality, but painting another contestant's body on the wall even though she asked you not too? tacky. And how is a vacuum cleaner with plaster on it a sculpture? :shrug:

I liked the outdoor space best, and the bedrooms were clean & trendy too.

oooowwwwwwwwww i love vern, i used to be a trading spaces whore, before they screwed the show all up, i will for one be watching, i dvr'ed the 1st episode, can't wait to get the time to watch~

So far, I'm bored. I'm no interior designer, but some of the things they're doing are uninspired and just plain ugly. :shrug:

Jill, I don't know if you've watched yet, so I won't spoil anything else. But IMO on the second show the bedroom was fantastic & the other rooms blew. :( Vern seems annoyed.

Isn't this the same show starting on Bravo at the end of January? I never watched it on HGTV. Was Todd Oldham the host?

the one on bravo is called top design, isn't it? they must've done market testing and found that "top ____" plays well with people. :laugh:

Think of Bravo's core audience. They/we/I love it. I'll be watching!

i'll resist watching it at first, but i'm sure i'll get sucked in. happened with project runway, top chef, housewives of orange county ...

did i say that last one out loud?

^^^
I'm all about the Hos of the OC. love it. I watch all the reruns still!

or maybe it's the men...Slade...sigh...

*i* would do slade before touching that disgusting harpy (ex?) fiancee of his. barf barf barf. i hate her.

I know and do you see how they've pretty much made her the "star" - now SHE's in the middle of all the broads on the previews. :rolleyes:

i noticed that!!!!! i bitched about that to my friends the other night. :laugh: i ****ing hate her. my fav is the one with the straight bangs/straight long hair. i don't remember her name ... she was a real estate ho.

the one that was a model and playboy playmate too?

Jenna

is it jenna or jeana? *

you know who freaks me out, tho? vicki. god christ, where's an exorcist when you need one?

*thank you, jazzy, for jogging my insufficient memory. without you i would be at a complete loss. :rolleyes: :laugh:

oh, it might be jeana. thanks Ms. So Perfect I Couldn't Remember Her Name To Begin With :rolleyes:

and Vicki and Lauri both - jesus f*cking christ

biyotch, you jogged my memory. you want me to cite you in my post or sumpin?

scary. as. fukc. did you see those "before" pictures of vicki, when she went back to illinois to visit her fam? dayum. from human to cyborg in 10 short years.

I know. and when she was talkin to her mom about what color her hair was...I was like...um, yeah, it's yellow. sorry.

is it "jogged" my memory or "jarred" my memory? in all seriousness. I'm curious.

srsly. "i pay a lot of money for my hair to not be yellow!" well you're paying the wrong colorist, honey! something tells me she needs to go visit hair by robert down in miami. blanche's hair never looks yellow.

i think it's both. "jarred" has a more negative connotation to me, since to "jar" something is to upset it.

lmfao. totally read my mind. though I was thinking more Rose...when she said she was naturally that color! lol.
thanks for the clarification teach. I can sleep in peace tonight and ask Amber tomorrow.

"do they even MAKE that color anymore??" :lol:

shyeah.

I this just a repeat from last season??

nope. it's a new show. I love the guy with the rolled up capris in the promo.

gay maybe? :shrug:

hm..I'll let you know...:)

wait. backup. you got me confused.

Top Design is the new show I was thinking about. I don't think Design Star has a new season out so they must be re-runs.

hell...all this fashion and design stuff is clogging my cold veins. I can't keep up. :cool:

...there is much GLAMOUR to maintain....I bought Tom some La Mer in your honor...:nod:

awesome. thanks for thinking of me. I think.

he will love it. did you get the creme de la mer or the eye cream or both or something different or what?

by the way, Mr. Jesse from Work Out...yeah, he's gay. he has a blog at http://blogs.outzonetv.com/jesse. I knew he dressed too cute to be straight.

I'll assume your "maybe" is sarcastic. :cool:
