Project Runway - Episode 5 - Welcome to the Jungle (Better Late Than Never Edition)

Sorry sorry! I've been in an Olympics stupor and am just sitting down to Project Runway.

Daniel ensures us that there's no way he'll be in the bottom 3 which guarantees that, of course, he will.

Blayne trills, "Team Dramalicious" and thus episode 5 begins.

Brooke Shields is on hand to judge the contestants as they design an outfit based on her Lipstick Jungle character, Wendy Healy. The winning design will be featured the show (which is a bore, by the way).

Suede just said, "I"!!!! OMG! Did the world just end?

The designers work in pairs so that should be lots of fun as you know half of them aren't going to get along. After showing Brooke their initial designs, she chooses Keith, Korto, Jerrell, Kelli, Terri and Blayne to create their designs.

Then we're treated to 30 minutes of mudslinging, including Terri pondering whether or not Suede has "balls or a vajayjay" and referring to herself in the third person. I guess hanging out with Suede is having a Suede effect on her.

Kelli talks about her disabled grandmother and how having a piece on Lipstick Jungle would make her really proud which means we'll be saying bye bye Kelli at the end of the show.

Tim no longer wants to say, "Holla at ya boy."

And it's runway time!

Keith and Kenley. K&K come up with a pretty groovy design that translates nicely from day to evening (see photo above). Everyone's in love with their sophisticated South Beach meets Midtown vibe.

Korto and Joe. Korto seems happy with her puffy sleeved African inspired jacket. Did Joe make that ill-fitting khaki dress? Why am I the only person who hates khaki?!!

Jerrell and Stella. While I don't love Jerrell's color/print choices, I think I like his ensemble the best. It's Heidi's favorite, too, and she and Brooke disagree about the belt.

Kelli and Daniel. Daniel thinks their outfit looks Dynasty." The shape of it, I feel, is the truly unfortunate part," says Brooke. "HELLOOO! Slutty, slutty, slutty!," exclaims Michael. Daniel says he has impeccable taste and Kenley laughs in his face. Now I know why someone hit my blog last night Googling "Kenley Collins is a bitch."

Terri and Suede. Earlier in the show Terri commented that her shirt was jacked. She was right, but it's good enough to get her through.

Blayne and Jennifer. B&J's outfit looks good... for a 20-year old. Heidi says, "She looks like she's a woman who didn't have a mirror." Blayne falls on the knife and admits he should be the one to go home if one of them were to get auf'ed. Jennifer agrees but apologizes. I'm kind of respecting Blayne right now even though Brooke calls him "kind of bratty." I wonder if he's watching this at home right now crying because BS dissed him.

Keith (and Kenley) win. And oh, how the show is becoming predictable as it's bye bye Kelli as Jerrell and Stella are in tears over her departure.

Woo hoo! Next week is drag queen design!
