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. TELL US – ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO PROJECT RUNWAY SEASON 21? WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE LINEUP OF GUEST JUDGES?

Is Paige DeSorbo Joining Real Housewives After Leaving Summer House?
The news only broke yesterday that Paige DeSorbo is leaving Summer House after seven seasons on the show. But the rumors are already swirling about where she might be going next. It's common knowledge that both she and housemate Lindsay Hubbard were hoping to join The Real Housewives of New York. Though EP Andy Cohen shut down Lindsay's hopes for an apple last week, could Paige still be in the running? Real Housewives of Dubai alum Chanel Ayan thinks Paige may already have her apple tucked up in bed beside her. Is Chanel spilling company secrets or is she just speculating like the rest of us? Over at the r/BravoRealHousewives community on Reddit, there's chatter going on about whether Paige will go to RHONY. Amid the conversation, Chanel posted, 'Girl you are the only person I watch out for fashion … New York Housewives will be good for you.' Has Chanel been talking to Andy? Or is she just making the assumption that the rumors are true? After all, Ubah Hassan and Chanel are cousins, so maybe the Dubai model has an inside track with RHONY. I actually think Paige would be great on RHONY. They definitely need a little spicing up after the last season. Wouldn't Paige and Sai De Silva make a pair? Reactions to the rumor were mixed among Reddit users. In response to Chanel's accidental announcement, One Redditer wrote, 'Love Paige but my housewives gotta be 40+ and delusional.' Maybe Paige is just the one to bring all those delusional New Yorkers back down to earth. And she could gift them all with her new pajama line, Daphne. Maybe Jessel Taank would find Paige's PJs more to her liking than Jenna Lyons' Christmas tree nightie. But until I hear the words from Andy's lips, I'll just leave the idea of Paige on RHONY filed away under things that make you go, 'Hmmm.' Summer House and The Real Housewives of New York are both streaming on Peacock in the US and on Hayu in the UK and Ireland. TELL US – WHAT WOULD YOU THINK ABOUT PAIGE ON RHONY? DO YOU THINK SHE'D FIT IT WITH THE GROUP? The post Is Paige DeSorbo Joining Real Housewives After Leaving Summer House? appeared first on Reality Tea.

Bravo Puts 'Real Housewives Of New York City' On Indefinite Pause But 'Hopes' It Will Return
It's a sad day for Bravo fans, as the network has announced its plans to put "The Real Housewives of New York" on an indefinite pause. The news about the beloved iteration, which first aired on Bravo in 2008 and featured stars like Bethenny Frankel and Ramona Singer, arrived days after NBC Universal (Bravo's parent company) shared its plans to expand the "Real Housewives" series with a new city. According to a new report from Page Six, sources close to Bravo and "RHONY" producers have said the network is placing the series on an indefinite pause after 15 seasons on the air. However, it may not be the end of the show in the Big Apple. Page Six also confirmed that Bravo "hopes" the show will return in the future. "We're trying to figure that show out," an insider said. "We want to figure it out. We think there's still life in it." The news about the "RHONY" hiatus isn't the first time the network has halted the New York-based show. After season 13, which featured Sonja Morgan, Leah McSweeney, and newcomer Eboni K. Williams, Bravo canceled the reunion before saying they were at a "crossroads" regarding how to move the series forward. Months later, Andy Cohen shared that they were starting from scratch and hosting a "major casting search" across the city in hopes of breathing new life into the wildly popular version of the show. "And when you start from scratch, Beverly Hills was a really successful season 1 cast, Jersey was a really successful Season 1 cast, Salt Lake City was a really successful season 1 cast. Those were people who were in each other's lives, who knew each other, who were relatives. That's one of the things that is going to be fun about this. Because when we find people that we love, we can say, 'Who are your friends? Who else is in your life?'" he said. "I think it will be the rainbow that is New York City. That's the goal," he added. Loyal Bravo fans and "RHONY" defenders have already begun reacting to the news online, with one watcher saying they'd "never forgive Bravo for ruining their best franchise." Another viewer slammed the network for the "disrespect" they've shown the "RHONY OGs who built the franchise." "The OG RHONY was a wild, beautiful ride [and] truly iconic," a third fan posted. "I loved it deeply. The reboot had its moments, but let's be real, it didn't hit the same. I've already mourned the OG loss, but Bravo saying it's really over? I'm not okay." Although disappointing for some, Bravo's move to pause "RHONY" indefinitely may not be the end for the over-the-top production. In 2021, eight years after Bravo paused "The Real Housewives of Miami," the network announced its plans to reboot the show on its streaming app, Peacock. Cohen said in 2020 that he'd been a big "advocate for Peacock bringing back Miami." The revived cast includes returners Alexia Nepola, Lisa Hochstein, and Larsa Pippen, as well as newcomers Guerdy Abraira, Julia Lemigova, and Dr. Nicole Martin. It's also not lost on fans that the "RHONY" announcement came days after Bravo shared its plans to launch a new iteration of the "Real Housewives" franchise in Rhode Island. According to the press release, the series will follow a "tight-knit circle of Rhode Islanders who have deep community roots and families that go back generations." "With aspirational lives, thriving businesses and tangled family dynamics, these decade-long friendships prove that in a state this small, there's no escaping your past … or each other," it continued. But that's not the only new series joining the Bravo family. The cable service also shared three other shows that will hit the air, including a "Ladies of London" reboot, which will feature "British blue bloods, ambitious American expats, and glamorous international socialites," a "Valley" spin-off, starring Reza Farahan and MJ Javid, and a "Wife Swap" series featuring "Real Housewives."
