'P. Runway' recap
Music to my eyes
Pop some crazy pills and strap in for another wild "Project Runway" ride.
The Parsons posse had to design outfits for (pause for effect) each other. Oh. Snap.
And then they were each assigned a random musical genre to interpret with their looks. Holy. Crap.
Yes, the fabric definitely hit the fan Wednesday night. The runway looked like the United Nations -- MTV TRL (R.I.P.) style. All musical cliques were represented -- the probably insecure pop stars, the glam goths, the ghetto gangstas, the country bumpkins and the heroine-chic rockers.
Parsons posers
The episode began with an amount of designers that Tim Gunn said he could count on his hand. (You do the math.) Leanne did Suede dirty by swiping his beloved model. Cold blooded. Then, the real fun began. Watching Korto turn into a country crooner was almost as silly as watching Leanne turn into a wannabe baller, which was almost as silly as watching Kenley turn into Britney Spears (during the good years). The producers probably got some kicks about thinking up ways to torture the designers with this challenge -- and it made for some darn good television.
Listening to Leanne rap and Korto try to sing country was almost as painful as listening to, well, Kenley's constant complaining. Someone needs to call that girl a Whambulence. Stat. It was hilarious to see Jerell and Korto roll their eyes at Kenley's attempt to make Leanne shorty a thug. Unfortunately, shorty had some camel toe issues on the runway.
T-Gunn regulates like Warren G.
But let's talk about Tim Gunn getting all hip-hop up in Kenley's grill. Priceless.
He wasn't feeling her attitude and told her to step back and that she better not disrespect. Word. I think me and the rest of the viewers had his back.
While the other designers tried not to laugh, Kenley whined that Tim was cramping her style and didn't know hip-hop. That's whack.
Everyone, including me, seemed to be eager to see Kenley and her busted attempt at bling-bling sent home. She clearly can't hang with the streets.
Guest judge LL Cool J -- who might know more about hip-hop than anyone -- straight-up told Kenley her look was fugly, not flossy.
The other outfits were cliché, but not too terrible. I wasn't a huge fan of Leanne's design.
Despite the fact that Korto made Suede look like Boy George, she won. Maybe it was beacuse she worked it on the runway better than the other designers.
Despite the fact that Suede (was my favorite and) made Jerell look like a hot rocker, he and his third-person self were sent home.
Bye-bye blue hawk
He had a good run, but it was no doubt his time to go. I'm not bitter and he wasn't either.
There won't be any tears until next week judging from the multiple breakdowns shown in the promo. This season started out blah but it might just end with a bang.
