This is kind of an interesting tidbit:
Fashionista and resident cliche abuser Tim Gunn, worked for free on the first season of Project Runway. True story! He didn’t earn one nickel for shelling out all of that advice, introducing the challenges, or breaking up fights between Wendy and Kara Saun, etc.
To the credit of the money-hungry [...]

But instead of feeling sad for losing another great actor this year (seriously 2008! [...]
