Tyra Banks and Jenna Lyons Among Project Runway Guest Judges for Season 21
Season 21 of Project Runway is coming soon! Not only did we just learn the lineup of contestants, but Freeform also just announced the slate of guest judges. The panel is about to be star-studded when the show returns this summer. They've tapped celebs from all across the worlds of fashion and media, including Tyra Banks and Jenna Lyons. Check out the full lineup below.
E! News dropped all of the tea about the upcoming season of Project Runway, which features two past contestants and a RuPaul's Drag Race alum. Heidi Klum will lead the show, with Nina Garcia and Law Roach serving as judges. Christian Siriano is going to be a mentor for the designers in the workroom.
That's already a solid lineup, but the guest judges are like the icing on the cake. Tyra, who hosted America's Next Top Model for ages, will bring her expertise to the panel in addition to Jenna, who leveraged her J. Crew success into a stint on The Real Housewives of New York.
Other A-listers slated to appear throughout the season include Sofia Vergara, Joan Smalls, Mickey Guyton, and Nikki Glaser. Plus, there are a ton of famous designers like Christian Cowan and Michael Kors. Freeform is pulling out all of the stops to make sure the show's jump from Bravo is successful.
In an interview with E! News, Christian teased the dynamic on the judges' panel. He said that fans can expect to see Law delivering his signature, unfiltered commentary. And since everyone has different tastes, some of the judges don't always see eye to eye.
He teased, 'Having Law as a judge is incredible, because you're getting very real fashion in the moment.'
'It's incredible Heidi being back makes it so fun and amazing,' Christian continued. 'Her and Law don't like the same things, and Nina doesn't like the same things.'
Project Runway returns Thursday, July 31, at 9/8c. on Freeform.

'Drag Race's Naysha Lopez claps back at Violet Chachki & Gottmik's Roscoe's shade
for The London Edition;(L-R) Violet Chachki and Gottmik at an intimate Pride dinner at The London Edition's Penthouse in support of the Pink Noise Foundation in London, England; Naysha Lopez at the grand premiere event of RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars season 8 in New York City. RuPaul's Drag Race superstars Violet Chachki and Gottmik released a spicy new episode of No Gorge, their joint podcast, on Thursday, June 26. While the two drag artists explore various topics on this new episode, certain negative remarks from the episode are making the rounds within the Drag Race fandom and queendom. For instance, this new No Gorge episode features Violet bringing up different tangents related to her season 7 costars like Trixie Mattel, Katya, and Ginger Minj. Meanwhile, Gottmik gets candid about her Snatch Game-winning impersonation of Paris Hilton. There's also a surprising (and random) mention of Roscoe's Tavern — a prominent queer venue in Chicago that's been a staple of the LGBTQ+ community since 1987 — that comes up in the No Gorge episode. After catching wind of the comments made by Violet and Gottmik about Roscoe's, Naysha Lopez made space in the All Stars 10 episode 9 viewing party live-stream to defend the venue and clap back at the comments made on No Gorge. Here's our full breakdown and timeline explaining this new drama. New episodes of are released every Friday on . Quotes always make more sense when they're presented with some context, so let's unpack the polarizing quotes from Violet and Gottmik in their latest episode of No Gorge — which was titled "We Have an Announcement… and We're Losing Our Minds." It all starts with Gottmik warning fans that the Snatch Game-winning impersonation of Paris Hilton will be sunsetting in the near future. "We're filming this pod and then I'm going to the airport. I'm going to be Paris Hilton for a month," Gottmik says on No Gorge. "You guys, this is the last time. I cannot do this anymore. That was years ago." For context, Gottmik is referencing the Snatch Game Live on Tour by ITD Events, which starts this Wednesday, July 2 at the Llewellyn Hall in Australia. The tour will also feature Drag Race stars like Hannah Conda (as Liza Minnelli), Jimbo (as Shirley Temple), Jujubee (as Eartha Kitt), Pythia (as Zeus), Tia Kofi (as Anne Boleyn), and Trinity The Tuck (as Caitlyn Jenner). Drag Race Down Under judge Rhys Nicholson will be hosting the event. "I literally texted our manager today and I was like, 'What the fuck Rick and Morty-ass timeline happened that I'm a professional Paris Hilton impersonator?'" Gottmik notes, jokingly. "That is so embarrassing." Violet replies, "The Drag Race thing, I fear, is going to haunt us for the rest of our lives." Paramount+/ Ginger Minj in promo image for RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10; art made by Violet explains, "I got my haircut today…That's like my one little self-care thing. [But] it's June. I'm ran through. It's Pride Month, so I got to do my self-care moment…My barber's like, 'So have you been watching the latest season?' And I'm like… [Violet makes a face]." The Drag Race season 7 winner clarifies, "I love my barber. He's a gay bear. But…it's been 11 fucking years [since season 7], and because there's drama going on now on the show—" "What is the drama?" Gottmik asks. Violet says, "The drama is about Ginger [Minj]. I can't even… I'm so annoyed." "I saw," Gottmik replies. "Vanjie actually sent me a clip of it the other day, and I was so scared because I was like, 'Why did she send that to me?' Because she never sends me Drag Race stuff. I was like, 'Oh my god, am I like mentioned? Was Denali going off on Roscoe's or something?'" - YouTube After realizing that the clip from Roscoe's Tavern has nothing to do with either of the No Gorge cohosts, Violet starts discussing Roscoe's itself. "Girl, Roscoe's is like…" Violet starts, laughing. "I can't, I can't, I can't," she adds. While Gottmik appears to be avoiding that conversation, the season 13 finalist and All Stars 9 contestant circles back to that discourse right away. "I mean, that actually needs to be studied," Mik observes. "Some of these girls are ready to risk it all—" "Risk it all to sit on a fucking patio chair at some fucking bar," Violet argues. The No Gorge cohosts speak over each other during the next few seconds, but Violet alleges that queens accept these invitations even though "the bar is monetizing boots" on the tea they're spilling through the Roscoe's viewing parties live-streams. Gottmik adds, "And doesn't pay them to monetize…It's wild." Violet repeats, "The bar is monetizing boots on y'all basically spilling the tea. Get a podcast, girl. Why are you letting them monetize all the tea?" "No, it's so crazy to me," Gottmik comments. "Stop doing that," Violet adds. Gottmik circles back to the argument that queens "are ready to risk it all" by taking these viewing party gigs at Roscoe's. "Literally stop risking your careers for Roscoe's," the season 13 star declares before bursting out laughing. "Stop risking your careers for Roscoe's," Violet agrees. "We should make t-shirts." They both laugh again. Logo TV RuPaul's Drag Race season 7 winner Violet Chachki. Violet rationalizes that she's "catching strays" from All Stars 10 because her social media algorithm is showing her "Drag Race stuff about Ginger." Violet continues, "And people are basically tagging me — or I'm seeing stuff — saying that I shouldn't have won [season 7] 10 or 11 years ago, and that she [Ginger] should've won." Even though Violet seems annoyed by the algorithm showing her more "Drag Race stuff," Gottmik hilariously interrupts Violet to ask if Ginger was on her original season. (And yes, she was. That season's top 3 finale was between Ginger Minj, Pearl, and Violet Chachki. In the end, Violet was crowned America's Next Drag Superstar.) "And now people think Ginger should've have won your season?" Gottmik asks. Violet replies," Yes, instead of being on Drag Race 17 times." Gottmik asks "who else" was in the top 3 of season 7. Violet reminds Gottmik that it was Pearl, and they briefly reference the "Is there something on my face?" moment between Pearl and RuPaul in the Werk Room. "Also, Trixie and Katya are doing a Ru-watch of season 7," Violet brings up. "They wanted me to [be a part of it]." However, the crowned queen of season 7 explains why she feels that the invitation from Trixie and Katya was "so weird." "They had their assistant send me a DM asking me if I would send them a voice [recording]," Violet says. "It was like, 'What the fuck?' You guys, call me. You have my fucking phone." Violet adds, "Having your assistant reach out when you're friends with somebody is so like… 'Who do you think you are, girl?' Text me!" "No, they do it all the time," Gottmik responds. "I think they're probably forced, against their will." Violet says, "It's so weird. I would never have my assistant or producer reach out to someone I consider a friend. It's so weird. Anyways…" This portion of the No Gorge episode ends with Violet complaining that she "cannot escape" the ongoing Drag Race discourse. She muses, "Am I going to be like 50 fucking years old, and will I have to get plastic surgery to change how I look, [because] I just want to get my haircut?" Toward the end of this Roscoe's Tavern viewing party covering All Stars 10 episode 9 — which featured Alyssa Hunter and Kween Kong as special guests and took place just one day after this latest episode of No Gorge was released on YouTube — Naysha Lopez declares that she's been given "the green light to express my mind." "All jokes aside, I've been calling them Tweedledee and Tweedledum, and I can really go in…[But] I won't do that. I'm talking about Violet and Gottmik, two of the nicest queens from RuPaul's Drag Race," Naysha starts. "They have a podcast. They do a thing. Blah blah blah, whatever. And they were saying that they don't understand why queens risk their entire careers and come on Roscoe's and, you know, give the tea, and this and that, and blah blah blah." The former Miss Continental winner and All Stars 8 star continues, "Two things: When they come here… First off, this is one of the best places you could ever work. Ever. Every single queen that works here is treated like the queen that they are. The implication that they're coming here and we're just making money off them… Baby, every single one of these people up here is getting a check. Every single person is getting paid." "For someone to say, 'Why would you risk your career giving the tea?'" Naysha adds. "Correct me if I'm wrong on the numbers, but I'm gonna say about 90, 95 percent of the girls that have ever been on Drag Race come through this stage, and not one career has been ruined. Not one. And this goes for every single person that says I talk too much… Because yes, I do." Alyssa Hunter & Kween Kong - Roscoe's RuPaul's Drag Race All Stars 10 Viewing Party! (VIP Edition) Naysha goes on, "But if you notice, whenever I interject or start talking about something, it's because they… [Naysha points to Alyssa and Kween to illustrate the point that queens starring in ongoing seasons are likely limited within the scope of what they can and cannot say.] When we have girls up there, I tell them what they can't say, and how they should word it: Their opinions, their feelings." "I've been on the show. I've read the contract. I know what you can and cannot do," she argues. "We're aware of it. You are not at risk for losing your career. On the contrary, we're giving you a platform to be yourself, to tell your side. And if the show did not highlight who you are as a person, I'm glad that for 2 hours and 30 minutes, you can do it right here." As the audience claps, cohost Batty Davis says that many queens have gotten redemption from the fandom by appearing on Roscoe's. "No one is here because they're forced to," Naysha points out. "Every single girl from that last season, it has now become, 'I got on Drag Race. When do I go to Roscoe's?' It's a thing." "No disrespect to Violet and her little minion… At all," Naysha concludes. "But when you're gonna say little things like this: Mean what you say, and say what you mean. Don't imply, because that's just lying." "And not to mention… Have we had them on this stage?" Naysha asks. Batty responds that yes, they have. Naysha adds, "Yes, we have. They've been through Roscoe's. They know what's up." - YouTube Violet and Gottmik were featured in a Roscoe's Tavern viewing party live-stream from May 28, 2022. That evening, cohosts Naysha and Batty, along with special guests Violet and Gottmik, watched episode 3 of All Stars 7, a.k.a. the all-winners season. Within the first 15 minutes of the live-stream, Naysha pointedly asked Violet and Gottmik about the response they had been receiving from fans as the two special cohosts of Fashion Photo RuView for the all-winners season of Drag Race. In case you don't remember: From the very first episode of that Fashion Photo RuView season, Violet and Gottmik received tons of scrutiny for negatively critiquing certain outfits worn by fan-favorite contestants. The fan response was particularly intense when Violet shared negative opinions about a look from Raja. On that particular Roscoe's viewing party live-stream, Violet and Gottmik got to speak their minds and share their side of the story even though they had already launched their joint No Gorge podcast at the time. Nonetheless, their statements at Roscoe's made the rounds on social media and helped diffuse the incredibly unfair — but very intense — wave of negativity they had been receiving for just expressing their opinions on runway looks. Editor's note: As of this writing, none of the queens mentioned in this story have shared additional comments about this situation. drops new episodes every Friday on . - YouTube This article originally appeared on Out: 'Drag Race's Naysha Lopez claps back at Violet Chachki & Gottmik's Roscoe's shade

Who Is Matthew Lillard's Wife? All About Heather Lillard (Including Which Bravo Show You May Have Seen Her On!)
Matthew Lillard may play Scooby Doo's best friend Shaggy in the live-action Scooby-Doo films, but that title goes to a different special someone in his real life: his wife, Heather Lillard. The Life of Chuck actor and Heather have been married since 2000 — and haven't been shy about sharing their love for each other on social media since. Matthew has penned various heartfelt tributes to his wife on Instagram, referring to Heather as his 'incredible partner' and the "love of [his] life". In a post for her birthday in 2024, he wrote, "I'm not sure where I would be without you… but I wouldn't be me. Happy birthday my love, you are our everything." Matthew and Heather have welcomed three kids over the course of their decades-long marriage: Addison, Ace and Liam. The actor told E! News in 2024 that his wife has been "incredible to parent with and a real gift to partner." So, who is Matthew Lillard's wife? Here is everything to know about Heather Lillard and her relationship with the actor. Heather was born and raised in California's Glendale/La Cañada area, according to her Compass bio page. She noted that she loves Pasadena's 'big city amenities and warm, small-town feel,' as well as 'its breathtaking architecture, rich history, and unbeatable food." Heather works as a realtor at Compass in southern California. Her Compass page states that she transitioned to a full-time career in real estate in 2009 after previously working as a director of special event marketing at Disney. She has also made a number of TV appearances, including a 2018 episode of an HGTV show where she took clients to see a 1923 bungalow located in Eagle Rock, Calif. Heather also once appeared on Bravo's Million Dollar Listing Los Angeles. She shared a video of herself, Matthew and one of their children watching the episode on Instagram in 2019, in a clip that showed her and realtor Tracy Tutor going over an offer for a property. When she panned the camera to Matthew, he teased her, pointing out that she got her hair blown out for the occasion. Matthew previously shared that he followed his wife to Italy after they met at a golf tournament. 'I will tell you how much I believe in love at first sight," Matthew said in an old interview, which Heather posted stills of on her Instagram on Valentine's Day in 2023. "I met my wife at a golf tournament. She said she was going to Italy for a wedding with a bunch of friends." He continued, "And in 10 minutes, I saw her, and I decided to go to Italy with her. At the end of the trip, I thought, 'Oh my God. This is the woman I'm going to marry.' ' The couple went on to tie the knot on Aug. 26, 2000. The day after their 19th wedding anniversary, Matthew joked on Instagram, 'We hit 19yrs yesterday. In Hollywood, that's like 2 lifetimes. And the truth is, it wasn't that hard. You're the love of my life @heatherlillardrealtor and I can't wait to see what happens next.' The Scream star and his wife share three children: Addison, Ace and Liam. Their daughter, Addison, was born the same day 2002's Scooby-Doo opened in theaters. "I was literally holding my newborn child, and the head of the studio called to [say] congratulations," Matthew recalled to E! News in 2024. "And I said, 'Yeah, she's beautiful. I can't believe it.' He's like, 'No, we just greenlit the second movie.' " Matthew also revealed to E! News at the time that his youngest child, son Liam, wants 'nothing to do with' acting. Meanwhile, Addison graduated from the University of Southern California's Roski School of Art and Design in 2025, and Ace is currently a student studying acting at Carnegie Mellon University. "The good thing for me is that my kids have seen ebbs and flows," Matthew said of his children following in his footsteps. "They know the reality of the business. I never pushed anyone into it, but I certainly wouldn't deny the passion of my kids who are both artists." Matthew and Heather balance one another. Speaking to E! News in 2024, the actor shared that he and his wife are a 'good yin-yang.' 'I am very carefree, like, I will jump off a cliff a million times," he said. "And my wife has the ability to balance that with a sense of diligence, and she's very prudent." Read the original article on People
