I love dish, especially from a bitchy, aging, queen who isn’t afraid to name names and throw down (and I mean that as a  compliment).

Part guide to good etiquette, part dishy memoir, in Gunn’s Golden Rules: Life’s Little Lessons for Making It Work, the Project Runway host writes about dealing with the likes of Padma Lakshmi, Martha Stewart’s daughter Alexis (“the angriest person I ever met”), Issac Mizrahi (“..I wouldn’t have the words to describe some of the more abhorrent behavior. He really is a terrible, terrible, terrible person.”) and Vogue overlord herself, Anna Wintour.

“It’s insane that people don’t call her out on the things she does. Is it fear? I was certainly afraid of her. When her office called me, I thought I’d have to go into the witness protection program.” He tells the NYDN.

Uh-oh.  Anna is not going to be amused.  Also?  HA!  (Do I need to mention I’ll be picking this up next week when it’s released on Tuesday?  I didn’t think so.)

Tim also goes into details about his own life, family (distant mother, homophobic father) and his interesting decision to remain celibate after a horrible relationship which ended years ago.

As for good manners in a post reality TV world that now seems to reward bad behavior with little or no consequences, Tim says, “Take the high road, you’ll never regret it.”
