'Runway' drama Is "Project Runway's" bad boy a rule breaker too?

Rumors are circulating that finalist Jeffrey Sebelia cheated. But Bravo, the channel that airs "Runway," isn't talking.

The lowdown, according to New York magazine, is that fellow finalist Laura Bennett accused Sebelia of outsourcing the sewing on his final collection. She made the accusation after seeing his collection—she'd heard that Sebelia was nowhere close to done when Tim Gunn checked in on him a few weeks before.

The show did a thorough investigation of the charges, Gunn said. Sounds like there might be something behind them: the straight-talking design mentor told the magazine: "His collection was very ambitious. I wasn't born yesterday."

OH HELL YES!
I missed last night because of school (will catch up with the rerun) but, I would L-O-V-E to see Jeffrey's azz handed to him!

i know i shouldn't but i just want to see this guy get the blunt end of the karmic stick for all the crap he has needlessly flung into other people's lives on this show.

it's petty of me, i know.

he is such an ass that he makes me take back all the dislike i had for wendy pepper in season 1. he's like santino from season 2, but without being funny or sometimes charming.

hehehehehe

Jeffery is such a jerk.....

next week they are having the lil special with everyone back on...that should be interesting..... maybe because they had to deal with Jeffery during the filming of the fashion week??

Jeffrey had me rolling on last nights episode when he was describing all the other designers' styles, especially when he referred to Laura's as "chicken soup and mothballs", ROTFL!!

Tim Gunn also made another comment saying something to the effect of " I wasn't born yesterday!" or something like that, when discussing the investigation of Jeffrey. It sounds like there's some bitterness there.

Did anyone else notice, that first guy they banned from the show (Michael?) is no longer in the opening of each show? You know, the part where they show the logo, and some short comments from each of the designers...

OK. I must be the lone Jeffrey fan. He's creative and inspired, and he's the only designer that makes me anxious about the finished product...he presents something that takes a little absorption. I'll quickly trade his lack of Santino's humor for the fact that he is not completely incredulous when the judges don't share his views...this might come from his already being established.

I thought his presentation last night was pretty good, a little taste of Boho.

So far, my favourite moment from Season 3: Korrs imitates Uli talking; Heidi shoots him a dagger look (coming from her, not that threatening).

bc

it makes me wonder what role the camera people and sound people play in shows like these. they must see things going on....like shopping out sewing..perhaps they're told to not say a word...

The final four all get to work the runway, thats always the way its been, its just the 4th place designer doeesnt get the collection shown on the air.

And honestly if you just look at the designs Only Jeffrey has shown any type of creativity. He takes risk with each competition, granted some designs work and some doesnt.

With Uli everything is a print

Laura everything is the same "classic" design

Michael can be creative but he seems to lack confidence in himself, I think he second guesses himself to much which stifles his creativity.

Yannow, it's amazing that a show that doesn't have people on a deserted island, or locked in a house, or competing for an aging rappers love, or dancing/singing better then other people can be so entertaining. kudo's to the people who put this show together

i don't know how i fell about all 4 in competition. it seems wrong. the rumor had been circulating, and heidi hinted at it when she was on the view last week.


LOVED IT!!
gorgeous, gorgeous work. uli totally deserved the win. i wrote her off with that first outfit, which was waaaaay muu-muu with a cool print, but she totally saved it.


HATED IT! maybe i complained too much about his assymetrical and deconstructed tuff, because if this is the alternative, i'll take assymetrical and deconstructed. it looks way too "AMERICA- YAY!" in the colors, the skirt siloutte is pathetic, and the white along the neckline and sleeves looks way more "granny" than anything angela ever did.


very pretty, although, while a lovely look, laura has really rendered herself redundant.


i liked it! it was a tad boring, btu still very very pretty. the weaving was awesome. i think had he included another color in the weaving (like black) it would have been even better.

so...

ready for some D R A M A ?

How does Laura know/think that jefferys collection has been outsourced? Unless
Bravo are keeping the top 4 hostages, i dont see how Laura has any knowledge of what jeffrey is sewing?
