Oh, geez! If he leaves Project Runway, that will be bad! He's one of the most entertaining elements of the show. :-)

According to Page Six he is going to be the chief creative officer at Liz Claiborne. He will start in March but it says it shouldn't interfere with his participation in season 4 of Project Runway.

Tim leaving Project Runway would be like Jeff Probst leaving Survivor. When either of those things happens, I would stop watching -- they need to be on their respective shows as long as Bob Barker has done the Price is Right! LOL

Two pieces of Project Runway news today:

NY Post's Adam Buckman reports that Project Runway will stay with Parsons, and that negotiations with Tim Gunn are still ongoing:

New York Post link

And Alliance Atlantis announces Project Runway Canada for fall 2007 (press release link here, though I have to admit the "Canada's fashion industry rocks!" executive quote had me wondering if this was a hoax):

Jay McCarroll and Tim Gunn Still Have Beef
Jay McCarroll is not one to hold back.

Jay McCarroll is lying low this Fashion Week. His first collection, which debuted in the fall, will be released next month by Urban Outfitters. What's next? Certainly not a reunion with Tim Gunn. We talked to McCarroll at the Gen Art fashion showcase, where he took the opportunity to get his feelings about the Project Runway host off his chest.

Your spring 2007 show was great.
Yeah. I thought it was good. No one said anything.

Is it going to be like “Jay McCarroll for Urban Outfitters?” Or a more low-profile type thing?
It’s just me selling my stuff to them. It’s my name. I’m excited. Production’s a huge issue. It’ll be stuff I showed for spring 2007. I just need to make some money!

Will you show for spring 2008?
Maybe I’ll do it again, maybe I won’t. I’m still trying to sort it out. Fashion is a very limited thing, and I want to do other projects that might be different. Housewares maybe. Or children’s fashion. Or art. Or performance.

What sort of art would you experiment with?
I guess like fiber art. I also love performance art. Like pretending I’m a retard. I know that’s wrong. Like mentally challenged. Fashion’s expensive. In case you didn’t know that. Like to produce. Thousands and thousands of dollars.

I spoke to Tim Gunn this morning. Are you two in touch at all?
No! Why? Did you ask him?

Yeah. He said he’d love to be in touch if you’re willing to talk.
It’s tough because he talked so much shit about me in the past. And it’s hard when you’re trying to figure your business out. It’s fine. Power to him. He’s having his heyday, but I also don’t think he’s an authority on any designer’s life. He went to school for sculpture or something. I don’t think that he’s ever, to my knowledge, started a fashion line and therefore should not be the adviser or the ’ creative director … how dare you pretend to know what I should be doing with my company? It’s none of your business, dude — you’ve never started a fashion line. You’ve never initiated showing at Bryant Park on your own so don’t tell me what my time line is to show at ’ Bryant Park.

He doesn’t know what I want to do. Maybe I want to ’ take a piss off the Empire State Building and call it fashion. But that’s my ’ prerogative. I just hate that because middle America looks at him like, He’s so nice, he’s like a father to them. On the show he was, sure. I’m not bitter about the man. It’s kind of hurtful. At one point he said I was an embarrassment because I didn’t show yet. And it’s like, ’-A, man. Maybe next season they can make Tim Gunn show a line. Five months. We’ll see how good it is. But don’t worry. I’ll be fine. — Rachel Wolff

Tim Gunn Thinks Michael Knight Needs to Get Out of Atlanta

We’re glad Bravo resisted the urge to overexpose Project Runway, but it’s killing us not to have a Bryant Park show to make bets on. So we found the next best thing: Tim Gunn, in the front row of the Heart Truth show.

Didn’t you get the memo? You’re supposed to be wearing red.
I don’t know that I have any red in my wardrobe! Maybe I have to fix it. I saw the John Barlett show. There was a wonderful cardigan with red piping. I’ll talk to John.

You have a new job at Liz Claiborne. Will you still be on Project Runway?
Yeah! That’s part of the requirement. My requirement. I said to Bill McComb, if I can’t keep doing these things that are such incredible fun for me, then I wouldn’t want to do that.

Are any Project Runway alums showing this season?
Milan is showing. Have you heard about Jay McCarroll? Is he showing?

He showed in the fall — it was great.
But then why stop the momentum, is my question.

Have you two been in contact?
Regretfully, I’m not. I’d like to be, but only if he’s willing to talk.

Are you in touch with season-three winner Jeffrey Sebelia?
Yes! I am. He just has so many things on his plate. He just needs to make some very difficult and strategic decisions about what he wants to do. And Michael Knight’s in the same position. He’s talking to a lot of people about a lot of different directions. I want him to come to New York, to be perfectly honest. I think we need to get him out of Atlanta. Which is not a denigration of Atlanta — he’s in too much of a comfort zone there, and he’s so incredibly talented.

What can we expect from next season?
We haven’t really even begun discussions yet. We need to determine when we’ll have auditions. I think we’re going to have an even higher level of design come out of this. I love the fact that we can have a design dialogue and less of a discussion about things being poorly made. —Rachel Wolff

TIM GUNN TALKS TO STAR ABOUT NEW GIG!
Project Runway's Tim Gunn spoke exclusively to Star reporter Shira Levine at the John Bartlett show during New York Fall Fashion Week 2007 about his future on the Bravo show and his new deal with Liz Claiborne.

Are you wearing John Bartlett today?
I'm wearing Banana Republic!

Congratulation on the Liz Claiborne job, what an unexpected job change for your fans and students!
I'm thrilled about it. I never expected to ever leave Parson's and Liz's new CEO came to me and made me an offer I couldn't refuse.

What will you be doing?
In this role I am going to be a mentor to the 350 designers and the 40 plus brands for Liz Claiborne. So I will be working with their designers very much the same way that I will be working with my students.

So this is goodbye to Parson's and your students?
I'll finish out my class this semester. I will work with the thesis review. I'll host the fashion show, and I'll keep a tie, certainly.

Are you still going to be doing Project Runway?
We're coming back. I'll still be on. It's separate. [Liz Claiborne] is only incredibly supportive of the whole thing.

Will you bring any Liz Claiborne flavor to Project Runway?
I don't know how we would integrate it to be honest. Unless Heidi (Klum) was wearing one of the brands, I don't know that it would be a natural thing — and Liz isn't looking for anything like that. They really said, "Lets keep these things separate." But they like the idea that I will continue be out in the world and visible in that capacity. Quite frankly, during the Project Runway auditions, I could find some good candidates for design positions.

What about your new TV show, is that still on?
We're still doing it. It's going to be based on the book that I have coming out in the Spring. But we don't even have a producer yet. So its not going to happen at just any moment.

Are overwhelmed with all this opportunity?
I'm thrilled! I'm having a blast. I'm really having a great time in my life and all after I turned 50! Isn't that amazing. I'm 53 and heading into 54 in July."

I don't understand Jay's bitterness, but even if I did, I'd still love Tim. Call me "middle America"! :-)

Jay was always quick to whine on the show, so why should now be different?

I have to agree with Tim about Michael Knight. His stuff before runway I didn't like, his stuff on the show I did like, but then his collection, I didn't like.

Project Catwalk---For those Canadians (sorry not sure if you can get it in the States) who enjoy the British version, it starts Monday night, 10pm or 1am on Slice (I think that is what Life changed to)

I thought it was you I was commenting back and forth on this show on Yankee. I've added a thread for it. Fingers crossed for Kelly to be good, I'll miss Liz thou.
