Harvey Weinstein and Heidi Klum should be very happy right now. With it's debut on Lifetime last Thursday, 'Project Runway' drew in 4.2 million viewers. Not only was that the most successful premiere of any of series in the show's history, it also maked the show as the highest rated competition reality show this year on cable.
Not bad, eh?
Recently we announced that the new series of Project Runway is set to hit your TV screens on Aug. 20, but it looks like Lifetime want to make the most of the show.
According to sources, the show is set to bring back old contestants for an all-star edition to take place one or two weeks before the latest season begins. The cast reportedly will include Chris March, Jeffrey Sebelia, Michael Knight, Daniel Vosovic, Santino Rice, Kenley Collins, Sweet P, Korto Momolu, and possibly more.

Now that nine months or so of legal drama over 'Project Runway' has concluded, Tim Gunn and team Lifetime have released a few details about the sixth-season contestants.
First off, they range in age from 24 to 50 (here's lookin' at you, Rodney Epperson). Second, although most hail from the US, there are contestants from Bosnia, Russia and the Republic of Georgia. And third, at least one of them might be naughty! Gunn says there's a cheating scandal (again?) and that "the blogs will be clogged". OK.
The next season, which was taped in LA to accommodate Heidi Klum's schedule, starts Aug. 20 on Lifetime. Will you watch?
