Barrel of a Gunn
There is nothing worse than being given a classy verbal bitch slap from an impeccably dressed gay man.
In an interview with Wonderwall, Project Runway mainstay Tim “make it work” Gunn was being interviewed and asked questions on a variety of fashion related topics. The subject somehow went to Jersey Shore and Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
When asked what he thought of the Jersey Shore style (such as it is), Tim answered, “Ugh! Oh! Don’t even get me started. It is not a style to emulate. I know that the show is hugely popular. I will tell you it pains me when I hear 12-year-old girls say it’s their favorite show. You shouldn’t be watching it! And it’s so incendiary that New Jersey is no longer permitting it to be taped in New Jersey”
Tim added that he finds the idea of J-woww launching her own line “preposterous”.
Heh! The topic then moved on to the Kardashians and thier new line with BeBe. “I just think the Kardashians have an absence of taste and I don’t think that that should be perpetuated. I’m sorry I’m sounding like an old farty snob but it bothers me.”
It should be added that Tim went on to say he supports celebrity endorsed labels in general, as long the celebrity in question neither oversees the production or the design (too bad for Kim Kardashian), adding “I’m all in favor of anything that employs young designers”.
Maybe Tim ought to send them all copies of his book in an effort to help?
