Outstanding host for a reality series. Why is this a shocker? The show has had better days. Klum has taken a much more vocal role on the panel lately; maybe that blurs her host duties a bit too much? But does the supermodel still have it after all these seasons? The Academy apparently thinks she’s out.
LifetimeProject Runway host Heidi Klum sat down with Jay Leno on The Tonight Show on Thursday to talk about Season 9 of Project Runway, her own fashion designs and vacationing in Europe with her family.
Klum spoke about Project Runway’s mentor, Tim Gunn, and revealed that he’s a little awkward.
“He’s very awkward and this is Season 9 and he just doesn’t change,” said Klum. “He’s just awkward from the first moment I met him and he’s still awkward.”
