I guess my thing with Starr Jones is...I hate her as much as people around here hate Wendy :-)

BTW, just regarding my "change of heart": I am not really disagreeing about La Pepper being in the top 3 because I didn't care for Austin's designs. I just won't really give her the benefit of the doubt anymore, in light of her comments on the Envy episode (2nd episode!!! Can't chalk it up to pressure when she's saying this stuff way back when).

Anyway, 1 more day before the drama unfolds. I keep thinking Wendy is not the one who walks out of the set. Wouldn't that be a touch too predictable? Anyways...

Truthfully, I didn't take your post personally at all, but I will stand by my assertion, Puddinhead, that some of your comments in your posting were out of the scope of Austin's designs. Frankly, I don't think I'm the only viewer that shares this sentiment, as some of the replies on the following pages of your original post would seem to indicate.

But I leave it to our fellow message board posters. Folks, if anyone is so inclined, please refer to Page 337 of the Designers posting for Puddinhead's posting on Austin's elimination. RE: THE QUEEN IS DEAD.Am I the only one(plus a few who have who already replied)who sees something in that post beyond a critique of fashion?

Would welcome the feedback. Thanks. jf

This is a quote on the Model message board. Just wanted everyone to see it.
"Jay is a very fair competitor..and just a nice guy! And keep in mind to all who were offended by his comments: they take so much of the interviews out of context and edit them to their liking...they have a way of making anyone look how they want them as a character on the show = reality TV!

In fashion week I was in Jay's finale outfit...the last of the show in the pink feathery looking gown with the fuschia headphones...funny we could barely hear anything with those things on!

We all definately talked about the designers and the eliminations..some were upsetting..some we could see coming..we weren't allowed to hear the Q&A's with the designers so we only saw that part when it aired...we all definately had favorites and developed relationships with certain designers i.e. Jay and I and Jenny with Kara-Saun.

My personal favorite was Jay's bathing suit...it was a little tight but I felt it was the most complete and coolest looking suit..I REALLY wanted him to win that one! Maybe I should have sat on the Page Six guy's lap or something..ha ha....I actually have no clue who defaced Wendy's picture...and as much as Wendy isn't my favorite, it's a nasty thing to do...we had an inkling that maybe that maybe it was production who did it to create more tension and drama with the designers?'

If she was going to redesign, excuse me, tweak the dress then why didn't she choose Jay's design at least. I would have been the perfect combination of rock with a glam touch. Ugh, I'm even more disgusted now. What a rip.

Several of you have posted about the reviews KS,JM, AS,and WP got at Fashion Week. Do you have the links for those? I'd like to read them. Thanks!

Well said, Gherk. It's one thing not to like someone or their work, it's another thing to become a stalker. Get a life, people!

Who do you guys think Mario is talking about when he says, "what a hot [expletive deleted]"?? I can't quite put my finger on that one.

thoms/jf-
i concur that the post decrying austin was ridiculous, however i also think that it's only offensive if you think that austin's being a "tinkerbelle" is a bad thing. i say, god bless men like austin-he shows that you can embrace whatever you want in life, be what some people think of as "stereotypical" and still be a good person-someone who (from what we've seen) is still kind under pressure, respects others, and has a quality of character. he can run around in a pink tutu with feathers (maybe wendy could design it?) with a tiara on for all i care-he's still an excellent person, and a great rolemodel for people to simply be themselves. i clap my hands fiercly, 'cause i believe in fairies.

Dear Fellow PR fans,

Hey, folks, I'm just coming out of retirement to say goodbye. I've been reading along more sporadically than in the past, mainly because since ep. 8 the range of discussion topics has narrowed quite a bit (basically, to Wendy, the most uninteresting person on the entire show!) and also because so many of the posts have become repetitive (e.g., venom, and response-quotes plus more venom). Regardless, I wanted to say that I enjoyed getting to know some of you, especially before the Wendy obsession set in, and that I wish you all the best.

-Paillette

please oh please ms. inky-no heart palpitations-i want you very much alive so that i can read more of your posts-however, i think you missed my point just a touch-my attempt was to use quote marks to denote sarcasm- wendy has (in my not so humble opinion) this strange feeling of superiority because of her "middle america" designs, and that, i was stating, is what drove her nasty comment, as opposed to the -phobia or -ism that the previous poster had surmised. i also think she's wrong-jay and kara don't design for a niche market-everyone wants to look good, and both designers (jay and kara)aim for that, albiet through the lens of their own fashion sense-that's what a designer does though, eh?

Thanks for proving Pailette's point about the venom. I do analyze what's being shown, (and let the record reflect I'm no fan of Wendy's). But there is a difference between being critical of someone on a message board for a TV show and repeatedly emailing them personally to tell them how much you hate them. Yes, the latter is pretty creepy and in some states, depending on the content of the email, may subject the emailer to criminal and civil penalties. If you are busy doing that, then yes, you are a stalker.

hey, don't forget that pesky first amendment.
the stalking statutes to which you refer (and good luck attempting to enforce them using emails!! LOL!!)are pretty tight and don't even exist in all states.

but in any event, my input would be: if you aren't interested in getting the emails, don't ask for them. and if you don't want people commenting on what you do, don't go on a nationally-televised reality show.
and if you don't want people to hate you, don't behave in a manner that clearly is calculated to evoke a negative response.

and if you don't like what TTB writes, don't read it.
said it before, sayin' it again:
these message boards can be fun, but the self-righteous, self-appointed thought and word police make my behind itch.
don't like it? just hit that handy "page down" button and ignore it. I know I do that all the time.
but if people want to be catty, I say let 'em. their perrogative.
to quote our jay: "bring it on!!"

Look, I'm not a Wendy fan at all - I'm a friend of Jay's and I support him for the win. I've really tried to avoid the bashing of Wendy for the most part, and while I agree her behavior and her designs are in the same category (farty), I think it is completely unnecessary and hurtful to do what you did. I mean, come on, the woman obviously has problems - and she's capable of reading the message boards - did you really have to send her the choicest posts and let her know of your hatred? Seems like she's not the only one with problems on this message board, huh?

Vanessa is a big biatch. Somebody posted a link to an interview of hers done after the show. She came across a mean opinionated bag.

Sure, I was there to win and made no bones about it - but I would never have allowed someone to suffer the way I did and offer no consolation. There is a difference between engaging in honest competition and providing humanitarian compassion.
