HEIDI KLUM AND TOM KAULITZ: IT WAS INEVITABLE

For the past year we’ve been seeing paparazzi photos of Project Runway host Heidi Klum and Tokio Hotel guitarist Tom Kaulitz hotly romancing in public and not-so-public places. He obviously could not keep his hands off her – and her four kids and 16 years of seniority did not dampen his affection. So we were not terribly surprised to learn that besotted Tom proposed and Heidi said YES on Christmas Eve!

LESLIE JONES: PULL UP TO THE BUMPER, BABY!

Who, in a million years, would have guessed that the Project Runway winner in 2008 would go on to be named by Time magazine as one of The Most Influential People of 2018? Diminutive designer Christian Siriano made all the right moves on the show – and afterward. He started his own business with his winnings and has become a red carpet darling. And he’s not too uppity to dress women larger than a size 2. In fact, when he heard that SNL star Leslie Jones had nothing to wear to her Ghostbusters premier in 2016, (designers snubbed her) he volunteered to dress her and they’ve been besties ever since. He also created her Grace Jones tribute outfit for the Time 100 Gala.

HEIDI KLUM: ASK ME NO QUESTIONS AND I’LL TELL YOU NO LIES

No one has yet been able to pin down Heidi Klum and ask about her relationship with Harvey Weinstein. Weinstein gave Heidi her big start on TV in 2002 when he produced Project Runway for her. Are we supposed to believe this lascivious mogul never made a pass at such an attractive model, who was indebted to him and also happened to be single at that time? C’mon, Heidi we KNOW you have a story or two – why won’t you share them with us? Back in October when Weinstein accusations were exploding, Heidi only made vague comments about the fact that every business had sexual predators, and that was all she had to say…so far.

THIS IS HOW A PROJECT RUNWAY JUDGE DRESSES?

Look, we love Alyssa Milano as much as anyone else. She was adorable on both “Who’s The Boss?” and “Charmed,” BUT she has no business being host and judge on Project Runway because she knows ZIP about fashion. At least the former host, Heidi Klum, has an intimate knowledge of style and designers from her long career as a model. And Heidi always presents herself well. When we hear Alyssa put down an aspiring designer on the show, it HURTS because she doesn’t really know what she’s talking about. She wore the pink dress, above, to promote the show and she looks matronly and dowdy. Unfortunately, this is about as good as it gets with Alyssa. She is no style expert.

HEIDI KLUM AND MARTIN DROP THEIR COOL AND DISTANT FACADE FOR A MOMENT

Well, THIS is a first! Heidi Klum and her bodyguard boyfriend Martin Kristen are actually looking coy and flirty with each other at the park! And he cracked a SMILE. Usually they’re very careful not to touch each other or look affectionate in public. We are extremely curious about their romance – we assume he is still on her payroll. When the romance started – did Martin get a raise? Do they live together? How does he know when he is off or on duty? The kids seem very fond of him too so obviously they have worked something out.

WHEN HEIDI KLUM FINALLY SPEAKS, SHE TELLS THE TRUTH

We’ve never been huge Heidi Klum fans (we find her a bit stiff on Project Runway) but since she decided to divorce Seal (whom we never liked) we appreciate her more every day. Her behavior and attitude has been impeccable when it came to the split and it’s apparent she really DOES care about her children’s feelings and not just her own. Months after the separation, she was photographed looking chummy with her bodyguard Martin Kristen and Seal leaped at the chance to belittle her. He came to regret his hasty “fornicating with the help” comments and apologized. Now Heidi has admitted she DOES have feelings for Martin and has trusted him with her family for four years. She honestly says she doesn’t know where the relationship will go, if anywhere. What we learned to admire about Heidi is she’s quiet when she should be, and doesn’t LIE.

HEIDI KLUM’S LITTLE GIRL LOU IS BLOSSOMING INTO A BEAUTY

Hard to imagine, but “Project Runway” host Heidi Klum has been out dressed by her own youngest daughter Lou Samuel. Lou looks adorable in her pink summer frock while Heidi has hidden her assets in Hammer pants and a baggy black cloak. Heidi looks like she has business on her mind -she the kids are staying in New York while Heidi works there.

DESIGN STAR: MEDIOCRITY IS THE PARAGON

We’ve been bombarded with publicity for “Fashion Star” that debuted last night, and being big fans of “Project Runway,” we made a point to see it. It’s much glitzier than “Runway” – the set is extravagant and features a runway for the numerous mini-fashion shows. Host Elle Macpherson is a bit more likeable than Heidi Klum, and the judges, Nicole Richie, John Varvatos, (yes, they have men’s wear too!) and Jessica Simpson, are observant and talkative. The gimmick of having buyers from H&M, Saks Fifth Avenue, and Macy’s, purchasing the designs they like for their stores is innovative. But there’s one big fat problem: the fashions are beyond boring! The first group of designers presented creations we’ve already seen and walked past in stores for YEARS. “Runway” designers are encouraged to be innovative, “Fashion Star” competitors are urged to please the masses. It’s difficult to imagine any of these designers becoming successful with such UNMEMORABLE clothes. Perhaps having to please chain store buyers stifles creativity- it might be better to have cool boutiques doing the buying.

KIM KARDASHIAN’S PANTIES ATTRACT MORE ATTENTION THAN HER RING

Photo Credit: Buzz Foto

Kim Kardashian figured all eyes would be glued to her 2 million dollar engagement ring when she appeared as a guest judge on the Project Runway show -so it wouldn’t matter that her dress was ridiculously short and tight and she had to sit on a stool. The ring was distracting, but not enough to draw attention away from her white underwear. We wonder if she needs a security guard wherever she goes wearing that ring…

CHRISTINA HENDRICKS DOESN’T NEED A STYLIST TO DRESS HER

In the past, nobody paid much attention to the Creative Emmys because they’re not televised and considered secondary to the real Emmys. Attendees didn’t fret so much about what to wear. But when Christina Hendricks from Mad Men showed up this year looking ravishing, she raised the bar and stole the show. Her fabulous black silk layered gown was designed especially for her by Project Runway winner Christian Siriano, who IS a winner, indeed. Christina is one of his best customers – she wore his peach ruffled frock to the 2010 Golden Globes. One last note: it is refreshing to see a pretty woman without any visible tattoos.
