• The Beacon Hill Blog reminds us that this time last year, it was snowing.
• The Rainier Valley Post continued their personal-meets-professional coverage of the stabbing death of their neighbor, Noemi Lopez. The RVP is calling for their readers to boycott the Seattle Times for their lack of coverage of the story and invites readers to come to a candlelight vigil in Noemi's honor.
• Capitol Hillebrities spotted everyone's favorite tanorexic and Seattle Project Runway alum Blayne out and about this weekend.

A fake tanning salon, of course! The Orange One will be at Wallingford's Desert Sun next week! Set up your tent now to make sure you get to shake hands (check for streaks after shaking) with Blayne-licious. more ›

It's getting down to the real talents (save Joe and Ms. Pants and Blazers only) on Project Runway and we have to admit to being a little (okay, a lot) surprised that Seattle's own licious-loving Blayne is still in the picture. Despite being kept around for his personality and catch-phrase creations after a disastrous first few designs, Blayne has stayed in the middle of the pack for much of the season. more ›

Seattle’s reality TV lovers are loving life right now. Along with Blayne on Project Runway, we can add a hopeful on America's Next Top Model to our cadre of locals to root for (or laugh at, depending on your feelings for Blayne): Elina. more ›

This cycle promises to be juicy. We've been promised a transgendered model (Tyra will love this!), as well as some sort of sex slavery tie-in (oh my). Check out MidSeasonReplacements.com's list of the fourteen models who are on this season (warning: lots of leg ahead), complete with tidbits of moderately interesting gossip about each one. more ›

We missed Project Runway last night (we were here), but apparently Blayne did a funny Chewbacca imitation and created a beautiful wreck of a drag-queen outfit. Thoughts? Comments? more ›

As if Blayne wasn't enough for us, Project Runway is kicking up the Seattle street cred tonight when the gayest reality show on God's green earth crams both West Seattle's pride and joy and our own Olympic® hero Apollo Ohno together in one big gay hour. (To be fair and to avoid lawsuits, we'll admit that Ohno is not gay.) We imagine the designers will have to design something for the ice rink—appropriate, given crazy high temperatures across the nation and the start of the summer Olympics® coming up this Friday. But, any excuse to see muscle-clad men in high fashion unitards is fine by us. more ›

It would seem someone in Seattle not only likes Blayne, our uber-tanned licious-loving local on Project Runway: someone loves him. The self-described "crazy drunk boy at R Place" admits to hyperventilating after meeting The Blayne (oops, wrong contestant), but valiantly asks for another chance via Craigslist's Missed Connections. more ›

Last week, Seattlest was embarrassed when the one local chap to make it onto the Greatest Reality Show That Ever Was (Blayne) turned out to be the camera-hoggy, catch phrase-happy, can-tanned queeny diaper-dress designer. So, we were thrilled pleased to see he somehow toned it down for week two. There was only one obnoxioulicious catch phrase moment, and even his fake-n-bake tan looked a little less, well, fake-n-bakey. more ›

Like the rest of the world, we tuned in for the season premier of Project Runway last night. We knew that West Seattle barista Blayne would be part of the cast. (Does the name Blayne make anyone else think of this?) The guy is crazy-obsessed with fake-n-bake tanning, and his catchphrase is sure to drive us batty. But, his first diaper-inspired design was just wacky enough to get him through to round two. more ›
