Christian Siriano has been very busy since his win on Bravo TV's "Project Runway." The over-the-top designer will guest star on ABC's "Ugly Betty" May 1.
"Filming Ugly Betty was amazing," the 22-year-old said. "The cast was the most fun, lively and supportive ever. They're as fierce and ferocious as they can be. Vanessa Williams is the queen of fierceness and Becki Newton is the princess... I'm inviting them all to my Spring 2008-09 collection — it'll be a great front row!"
"Project Runway" judge Nina Garcia will also make a guest appearance on the show, playing herself.
But Siriano's been doing more than making nice with the cast of "Ugly Betty." He made some negative comments to Life & Style magazine about celebrity designers, reportedly Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port of MTV's "The Hills," in particular.
"It's really sad that if I didn't win Project Runway, I probably wouldn't have the sponsors I have now. I would have never been able to do what they have done because they all have disposable income, and yet their work still isn't that great," Siriano said. "I mean, i's fun and flirty and young, but they're not innovators. None of them will ever be an innovative designer. Buyers and editors are looking for longevity, and hopefully they will see that in me."
Yikes! I can only wonder what he thinks of Heidi Montag's new line, Heidiwood!
