Predictions on who is getting kicked off of the show tonight? I wonder what the controversy is?

I'm still thinking Keith, they're focussing a lot on him it seems. And I still think it may have something to do with the fact that he had help with his original designs that he showed them. Maybe he's still getting help somehow.

Or, maybe someone's banging one of the producers or something.

I haven't watched yet. I scrolled down & didn't read anything to avoid spoilers. It's on the Tivo, I'll watch tonight & post tomorrow.

Heidi was pretty harsh when she said "We felt that your outfit was a total bore." I laughed my ass off!

To tell you the truth Bonnie's outfit was my favorite. They all pretty much sucked though. I was not impressed! I don't think the judges were either!

Why does everyone hate Vincent? I love him! Actually, Malan was my favorite. Too bad he got the boot on the second episode.

First let me just say one thing. I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT! Buh-bye Keith. I can't believe how upset Allison was - he was basically cheating, sweetie, you should be pissed at him, not sorry for him. Idiot. Then for him to say that people were looking for a scapegoat? Dude, you broke the rules. And now? You are OUWT! I loved Laura - "Keith. What an assh*le."

Now onto more important matters. The clothes!

http://www.bravotv.com/Project_Runway/rate/

Keith, Allison & Jeff: Very cool, very trendy. I wasn't a fan of the tank top hanging down around the waist, but wasn't it supposed to convert into a dress? Did they ditch that idea, or just not show it? Odd. It did seem that Keith was delegating way too much - he seemed to have an idea of what he wanted, but not the skills to do it. Alliosn & Jeff should have won based on their talent & ability to hold it together despite the loss of their teamleader, but I think that the judges felt it wouldn't be fair to reward Keith's design if he may have had outside assistance with it.

Angela, Laura, Michael: That whacky girl had better thank her lucky stars that Laura & Michael were there to calm her design down & make it more accessible to the general public. In the end, I thought it was good, but I mainly liked the classic gray color & juxtaposition of the satin trim against the flat fabric. I'm not a big fan of short jackets, but it was cute. I saw a lot of Laura's skills in that outfit. Mike - did you notice that Michael oversaw the hair & makeup? Hmmmmmm.......

Bonnie, Bradley & Uli: I got what she was trying for, but I agree - instead of looking retro cool, it looked dated. Those pants looked like the polyester ones my mom used to wear - yuck. The jacket was cool & flowy, but that's about it. Poor Bonnie. Her designs just weren't very exciting.

Robert, Kayne & Vincent: I can't believe how fug this was. That jacket looked like a parka you'd wear to a football game, the top looked like something you'd buy only to wear to work, and the skirt was OK but that slit was close to obscene. Not daring, just tacky. Nothing went together. First time I've ever agreed with Vincent, and he & Kayne really tried to help this design. This from a Barbie designer - what a disappointment. His design wasn't great last week either.

Project Runway's Keith: I Didn't Cheat
FRIDAY AUGUST 04, 2006 09:50AM EST


The first-ever designer to be kicked off Bravo's Project Runway for breaking the rules has spoken out about his ouster – and he thinks he got a raw deal.

Brooklyn, N.Y., native Keith Michael, 34, was asked to leave because he had pattern-making books in his room – a violation of the contest's rules – and at one point had gone AWOL from the production.

The freelance designer tells Bravo senior vice president of production and programming Andy Cohen, who writes a blog on bravotv.com, "I am not the kind of person who can't admit when he's wrong. I feel like there was a lack of integrity on behalf of the production. I thought it was one-sided."

He doesn't deny he had the books – only that he used them to cheat. "These pattern books were not the kind that you would be able to use for practical purposes on the show," he says.

"One of the books was the most detailed pattern book you would ever see about menswear that had nothing to do with anything on the show. I brought it because I was working on my menswear line at the time. And the other was a dictionary of production terms."

As for what he did during his four-hour unauthorized leave from production, Michael tells Cohen, "All I did was I went to my boyfriend's apartment, found his spare key, found an e-mail from the executive producer and asked him to contact me. I don't know what to say – that's the deal."

Michael says that at least one Project Runway contestant is on his side: Fellow Brooklyn native Alison Kelly. "Alison is very supportive of me. She was very confused because she liked me very much. It seemed like the evidence against me was heavy and she didn't know what to feel."

"I think this whole thing is farfetched and crazy," he continues. "I have gotten so much fan e-mail from this whole thing. People want me to be the bad boy, but I am not that guy. … I thought I would win because of talent, but now I don't know who's to blame but I am not owning up to this."

Michael also addresses Internet rumors that the sketches he'd presented at his audition were in fact drawings from other designers' runway shows. The sketches, he says, were part of a trend report he'd presented to a client as an overview of the latest styles.

"I work for a lot of huge fashion companies and do trend reports for a lot of them and people pay me for that information to review what's going on in fashion," he says.

What's next for the designer? "I am focusing on getting a showroom to represent me," he says. "I need cash behind me to do what I want. Getting the funding that I need will hopefully let me show in September."

And he's confident he'll get the funding even without Project Runway's $100,000 prize. "I was hoping to win," he says. "But I will figure out another way of doing it. There's a few ways to skin a cat, right?"

-----------------------------------
Seriously, that guy has more excuses then a doctor has pills. He's been complete BS since the beginning, so why would anyone believe him now? I think the ruling was fair. Too bad he was auf'd before Kors came back. I would have liked to see Keith try to pull one over on him.
