Project Runway Finale Tonight

I used to be betting on Uli, but now I think that Laura might pull a win out of her ass. I admit everything she does is impeccable. It's just that her stuff isn't all that imaginative. There is also speculation that Jeffrey gets kicked off the show, even though his collection still appears at the Bryant Park shows. It sure looks like it to me.

Also, there is a stink about the Project Runway models. Evidently they don't get paid and it's causing a bit of an uproar from fans and the like. I get that it's a contest for them too, but really a shot in a mag isn't like a check for $100,000 like the winning designer gets. I think after the show became a hit, (somewhere in the middle of the 2nd season), Bravo should have started giving the models some kind of honorarium. It's not like they live for free in a nice NYC apt building like the designers. Maybe the model interviewed for the story is exaggerating, but if not, that's too bad for Bravo.
