The Morning's Story: Project Runway

This story is free to read because readers choose to support LAist. If you find value in independent local reporting, make a donation to power our newsroom today.

We know it happened on the whole other side of the country but did you watch Project Runway last night? Perhaps the best finale of any reality show in history (paced correctly, cast members being even more themselves, a question of cheating, drag out fights, and then, true competition) ended with Jay McCarrol winning, just edging out LA-based Kara Saun.

Kara Saun lost our love a little bit last night by taking the contest far too seriously and by attempting to use an unfair advantage to get over on the other two. Protosheigh even has proof of the Gucci cribbing Kara was accused of doing in the signature piece of her collection.

Wendy Pepper also didn't dissapoint and was as irrational as she's been throughout the entire experience. Perhaps the only thing crazier than the evil Dr. Pepper was Parker Posey's hair. Come on back west and find a pilates class, Ms. Posey. You have some things to work out.

screen grab grabbed from protosheigh as well.
