"We can exclusively report that show host Whoopi Goldberg will be wearing a design by Project Runway winner Christian Siriano on the big night. "I am dressing Whoopi Goldberg for the Tonys," Siriano revealed the other night at the Declare Yourself and American Eagle celebrity T-shirt launch in Los Angeles. Reps for the Tonys and Goldberg confirmed Siriano's latest gig."

Whoppi is a well-known fashion disaster. Some puffy sleeves could only help!
He only knows how to dress skinny bitches. It's going to be a disaster.
Is that like when she dressed as Queen Elizabeth I?
HA! Can't wait to see what he does w/ her! At least he has more time w/ Whoop than he did w/ American Idol girl (Kim something, right? Locke. Just looked it up-- thanks google).
Good lord, he is dressing the ORIGINAL hot tranny mess? This should be interesting.

Saw this online this morning and my stomach turned. The thought of her in one of his skinny bitch outfits made me a little ill. Either that or it was too many salty dogs in 100 degree weather on the boat yesterday.
I am more curious to know HOW this came about --- WHO even thought this might work? This will be a reason to watch the Tonys --
I can't wait to see this.
Of course she's going to look hideous but she doesn't care. She's freaking Whoopi Goldberg. However, his reputation...
I'm not having a good feeling about this. Hmmmm, we'll see...

Good one! And how right you are about La Goldberg.
I took an early lunch and happened to catch the end of THE VIEW where PPS was a guest and reviewing designs for Whoopie. I must admit, he was very much on target with capturing "her personal style." Basically, he showed looks very similar to what she's worn to the award shows in the past with the exception of a couple of layered looks with leggings *insert shriek & gasp.*
I know Christian is a whiz on the old singer, but he'd better get crackin' 'cause June 15 is right around the corner and I cannot imagine Whoopie being an easy client to deal with.
It was nice seeing PPS again. He looked cute and has was very professinal with nary a fierce to be heard.

That's HUGE! Good for you, PPS!!
I saw him. He was adorable, but the only thing that would have made it a truly successful appearance, is if he had hit that Elizabeth Hasselbitch over the head with a large, blunt object.
Any jury would have let him off.

Oh dear god, why?

I missed that. : (
I'm so glad he's doing so well.
She tends to wear dresses with kind of a comic effect to these things, I wonder if that's why she ask him to design her a dress.
This is bigger than American Idol. He'd better do well, or he'll be dead!
You are so right, Sewing Siren...this feels like a set-up wiht PPS as the punch line.
So PPS cuts a hole in a velvet bedspread and cinches it here and there. That's what the Whoopster usually wears. He can throw it together in 10 or 15 minutes.
It'd every gayboys wetdream!
Oh the pressure...poor Princess...
Giggle.... can't wait. He can only dress skinny people. Not to say she isn't fabulous... well maybe... but she's so funny!
Well, you never really know until the last minute. Costume changes at the last minute have happened before --even to very well known designers.
A few years ago, Jennifer Hudson wasn't pleased with Andre Leon Talley's choice of a drab Oscar de la Renta gown with a space-zoid metallic bolero. She decided to go with a Roberto Cavalli, but Andre found out and had a fit!
And that's how she ended up in that truly bad ensemble.
Oh, and there was the Jay / Heidi red dress agreement, that didn't come to fruition either.
While this is all good news for Christan, ya never know!
