Project Runway Episode #506 Recap (Guest RuPaul)
The episode opened with the designers laughing to themselves that Keith won last week’s episode. Joe asked, “Are the judges blind?!” My thoughts exactly. What’s next? Korto’s new potato sack dress for the Brady Bunch gets rave reviews from Michael Kors?
Heidi told the designers they’d be creating a new look for drag queens. Suddenly and without warning, Chris March (season 4) appeared on stage with disco balls over his boobs and a viking helmet with grossly oversized bull horns. He looked like the Swiss Miss girl after a 3 month steroid and chocolate binge.
Then, 12 other drag queens rushed the stage, screaming and dancing like they were in the front row at a Cher concert. Emotion got the best of Terri, causing her to scream out, “This is the challenge I’ve been waiting for! I love drag queens!” Yeah, probably because SHE IS ONE. Just stare at her face and tell me she doesn’t look like Dennis Rodman and/or Rupaul in a bad weave!
Tim then announced the winning design would be sold online, with money benefiting an HIV/AIDS charity. Why, whenever drag queens are mentioned, do people always have to bring up AIDS in the next breath? How stereotypical, though maybe appropriate for this classy bunch considering one of the queens was named SHARON NEEDLES. Some of the other clever names? Annida Greenkard, Farrah Moans, and Hedda Lettuce. Those are all about as original as Bart Simpson’s SEYMOUR BUTS.
This week, RUPAUL was the guest judge. Shocking. Who did you expect? Mrs. Butterworth?
The winner: Joe. He made a skintight, sparkly pink sailor’s outfit, complete with an oversized belt cleverly placed to hide the dude’s manhood.
The bottom two designers: Daniel and Keith. Daniel made the UNDRAGQUEENIEST DRESS EVER. It looked like a melted bowl of sherbet, with no flair or style or creativity. Keith made a boring black and white dress with fringe and stringy swatches… you know, the same thing he does every week.
WHO WENT HOME: Daniel. His dress was boring, and had no drama… sort of like the last 2 seasons of Lost.
