New Emmy Dress Designer!

Lauren Conrad is not the only young designer set to design a dress for The Prime time Emmy's presenters. Recently Project Runway winner Christian Siriano has signed on to create some fierceness for the trophy girls as well.

Siriano stated “I am honored to design a gown for this year's Prime time Emmy Awards trophy presenter. It has been so inspiring watching the Emmys every year to see who is going to be the most fabulous diva at the show. It’s wonderful to see what the stars are wearing and which designer takes over the carpet. It will be such an experience seeing my own creation on stage.” (people)


We can't wait to see the gowns! Which design are you looking forward to seeing?

Whoopi will look "fierce" for Tonys


Whoopi Goldberg will be hosting the Tony Awards for the first time this year - and she plans to look fierce!

E! has exclusively revealed that Project Runway winner Christian Siriano will be dressing Goldberg. Reps for the Tonys and Goldberg confirmed the news.

The Tonys will be telecast live on CBS from Radio City Hall in New York City June 15.

Goldberg has revealed some of her plans for the show that celebrates the best of Broadway. She told her co-hosts on 'The View' that she has been shooting spots in Times Square, as well as other iconic areas around Gotham.

She also told the New York Daily News that Big Apple's Mayor Bloomberg will be joining her in a skit to start the show.

"He's my friend, and who better to start the night than the mayor of New York City?" Goldberg told the paper.

The Oscar-, Emmy-, Grammy- and Tony-winner actress got her start in theater, and she has been using her clout on 'The View' to help hype the Tony Awards and some of the nominees.

Christian Siriano disses "The Hills" girls


Christian Siriano has been very busy since his win on Bravo TV's "Project Runway." The over-the-top designer will guest star on ABC's "Ugly Betty" May 1.

"Filming Ugly Betty was amazing," the 22-year-old said. "The cast was the most fun, lively and supportive ever. They're as fierce and ferocious as they can be. Vanessa Williams is the queen of fierceness and Becki Newton is the princess... I'm inviting them all to my Spring 2008-09 collection — it'll be a great front row!"

"Project Runway" judge Nina Garcia will also make a guest appearance on the show, playing herself.

But Siriano's been doing more than making nice with the cast of "Ugly Betty." He made some negative comments to Life & Style magazine about celebrity designers, reportedly Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port of MTV's "The Hills," in particular.

"It's really sad that if I didn't win Project Runway, I probably wouldn't have the sponsors I have now. I would have never been able to do what they have done because they all have disposable income, and yet their work still isn't that great," Siriano said. "I mean, i's fun and flirty and young, but they're not innovators. None of them will ever be an innovative designer. Buyers and editors are looking for longevity, and hopefully they will see that in me."

Yikes! I can only wonder what he thinks of Heidi Montag's new line, Heidiwood!

Kimberly Locke Gets Fierce-ified!


According to sources for TMZ.com, Project Runway's prodigy and master of all that is fierce, Christian Siriano, designed the dress that Locke wears on tonight's American Idol. I guess instead of it being designed with Posh in mind, it's all about Locke!

If only Christian could do something for Paula as well...and save her from looking like the tickety tack drag queen that she usually does.
