And the TV stunt casting continues! This time, it’s “fierce” designer Christian Siriano, winner of this season’s “Project Runway.” Siriano will make an appearance on ABC’s “Ugly Betty,” during sweeps weeks, of course.
How fierce!
Project Runway winner Christian Siriano will guest star on ABC’s Ugly Betty.
The episode will air during May sweeps week.
According to an ABC statement, Siriano, 22, will cross paths with “Mode’s own hot tranny mess” Alexis Meade (Rebecca Romijn).
Runway judge Nina Garcia will also have a cameo.
Siriano won the Bravo reality show earlier this month.
“This won’t be the last of Christian Siriano,” he vowed at the time. “I mean, people need to see more of the fierceness.”

Siriano was popular while on “Runway,” winning the coveted “Fan Favorite” award, which was a check for $10,000. Since the show ended, Siriano has been doing the talk show circuit and making several appearances. On March 29, Christian will serve as a red carpet correspondent for Access Hollywood at Nickelodeon’s Kids Choice Awards, hosted by Jack Black.
And on the orange carpet, stars like awards’ host Jack Black will have their fashion looks rated by the young designer. “I think it’s fabulous that I’ll be on the red carpet checking to see if anyone is a hot tranny mess,” Siriano said, borrowing one of his trademark phrases fans heard him saying on “Runway.” “Watch out – you know I’ll be fierce with my comments.”
The 22-year-old “Runway” winner will bring his energy and flair for fashion as he also hands out Access’ “Fierce Fashion Awards” to all those deserving celebrities on the orange carpet.
I love Christian, and was happy he won the show. He was clearly a talented designer and a fun personality. However, he needs to be careful not to overexpose himself or his “fierceness” is going to diminish. I’m kind of over the whole “hot tranny mess” catchphrase at this point. But then again, reality stars have a short shelf life, so I guess he’s smart enough to realize that and cash in while he can- the new season of Project Runway has already started filming.
Christian Siriano is shown on 3/15/08 at The Human Rights Campaign’s annual gala, thanks to PRPhotos.
I adored watching him on PR. There wasn’t a lot of drama this season, so he really made the show fun. (loved Chris March too).
I agree he needs to find some new catch phrases if he wants more than his 15 minutes.
I call this great publicity stunts.
The boy needs to get talked about until his new collection reaches the NY Fashion Week. He needs to draw investors to himself (100 000$ is barely enough to make a great collection and show it) and he’s done it for the moment thanks to his personality.
As long as the talent goes on, it’s ok.
The big problem is, of course, that he needs to stay away from the “pure party style” and continue to focus on his work.
He could become as big as John Galliano within twenty years as long as he doesn’t stray away from his glory path.
He is the real deal. Completely adorable and amazingly talented. I would wear his pieces in a heartbeat. Totally agree with Bellatrix, if he doesn’t get lost in party land or fall prey to soul leeches his future is limitless. Astonishing to remember he’s only 22!
Christian has a great publicist who is capitalizing on his 15 minutes in primo fashion. This guy is EVERYWHERE. I saw him last night on the “Make Me a Super Model” show. He was “advising” the final four contestants on their runway walks…like he’s an expert on runway walking!!! Love the guy. Go for it, while you can.
