Heidi Klum Sells NYC Apt
There is new word that Heidi Klum has sold her Greenwich Village apartment in NYC right around the time that she gave an interview to Forbes.com about the changes that are being planned for future seasons of Project Runway (ie. when the show moves to Lifetime from Bravo later on this year). According to Heidi, the show will get a bit of a “facelift” when it “moves to LA”. She goes on to give other comments that make it seem like the show will be moving there full-time and not part-time like we were led to believe earlier this year:
As Forbes’s 78th most powerful celebrity on its new list of the 100 most powerful celebrities, Heidi Klum discusses her career in a video on Forbes.com. In doing so, she spills some details about what Project Runway will really be like when it moves to Lifetime. “The concept will be the same,” she says. But! “It will have, definitely, a face-lift. The look of the show will change a little bit.” Oh, God, we can see the pink graphics already. She also said they might add some “different catch phrases,” which we’d welcome with open arms, since, as much as we love Tim Gunn, we’ve been ready to put “make it work” in the compost heap for years. Klum adds the show won’t be shot at Parsons, since they’ll be in L.A. Now we understood only half of the show would be shot in L.A. But Klum makes it sound like every runway scene will be shot in L.A., which would be the entire season, no? “It will have a Hollywood flair,” she says. Oh, gag.
See, I’m not willing to take the fatalist viewpoint and automatically assume that the show will turn to horse shizz just because it’s moving to LA. I’m concerned that too many changes (no matter where it’s shot) will turn off viewers and may put the show in jeopardy. There is one final season of the show set to air on Bravo starting next month and then the new (and improved?) Project Runway moves to Lifetime and debuts in November. It really sounds like the show is moving to LA full-time … despite the fact that people were spinning this huge change by saying it will be partly shot in NYC partly shot in LA. Heidi has a bad habit of letting the cat out of the bag too early and she did just sell her NYC home … it kinda feels like PR is really moving the whole kit and caboodle here to SoCal. I’m reserving judgment … surely they won’t totally destroy my fave competitive reality TV show … will they?

yeah it really needs some freshening up! And they should make maternity wear and bring back Alessandra Ambrosio to guess judge.

I hope it stays as good as it is. I love this show.

It really sounds like Lifetime is making all these unnessacary changes. The show is amazing as it is. As the old saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Lifetime should have thought of that when they decided to move to LA.

So long as Tim Gunn isn’t apart of those changes that they’re making, I’ll still watch. To me, PR isn’t PR without Tim Gunn.

I make it a point to never watch anything on Lifetime, but I will make an exception for PR. I hope that the changes aren’t too big.
BTW, loving the new format!
