!! Keith Michael speaks !!
[[comments: 18]]
My post about Project Runway contestant Keith Michael's fake audition sketches has only been up for a few hours and already he has written in to defend himself. How flattering to know that he must be a regular reader. Anyway, this is what he has to say:
i thought it might be time to write in. for the record, i submitted 5 portfolios for the judges review. the one you seem to be focusing on was a research assignment i did for a client in which i reviewed key fashion trends. as a designer, trend forecasting jobs come to me quite frequently. i'm very proud of all the work that i do. the panel of judges that reviewed my work had many years experience behind them. i found them neither ignorant, uninformed or misguided about their own profession.
keith-
Trend forecasting, hmm? It seems odd that out of "five portfolios," the images of someone else's work were the only ones shown on the program. It's also odd that he Photoshopped the photos to eliminate the models' faces and also changed the color of the Lacoste skirt. Wouldn't the skirt color be an important part of the "trend" for Spring 2006?
Nice try, Keith, but ultimately not very persuasive. Now we all get to wait and see if he is the one who is the subject of the scandal on this week's episode and is "asked to leave." Heaven help him if he made it to the Final Three.

I don't think Keith got kicked off for possession of books. Based on his appearance and attitude of his last shots on the show, he was obviously under the influence of something, i'm thinking heroin or meth. This is pure speculation, but if you substitute "heroin" or some other drug for "fashion how-to books" it still makes sense, especially when Tim said it made him sick that Keith was in possession of them/it. I think this was done to save face for both Keith and the show. I can't see P R dealing with a drug abuse issue.

Looks like Keith is Project Runway's version of Omarosa. I hope so - reality tv is kindest to it's villans in the long run. The producers worked so hard to make Keith look like an a** that they guaranteed him fame despite who wins. I don't pretend to know if he's a good designer, but we can all see that he is a BAD BOY, and everybody loves a rebel!
I wonder who would be more fun in bed... Santino or Keith? Grrrrr!

To those of you making ridiculous comments about Keith's looks...come on! Please are we in junior high where everyone is judged based on appearance. PS. Keith is totally hot! I think he is articulate, funny, and brought a lot to the show. I am sad to see him go. Also, he is probably really embarassed at the fact that he did get kicked off so give the guy a break...he was trying to fulfill his dreams...and now not only did they get crushed...but he was publicly shamed. Hasn't he been through enough?

Keith Sucks. He should have been voted off last week, he didnt even create an outfit for his dog ( I mean come on). then on top of that he got an attitude with Heidi. He is cocky and ignorant and should go home.

I think that once Keith Micheals leaves the show they will bring in one of the finalists that they showed in the first audition. I thought that Daniel Feld's designs were real sexy and interesting, plus he was adorable. He looked like a euro version of John Stamos or Robert Downey Jr in the 80's. Anyhow I hope they do something since Keith should have never been on in the first place and took someone elses opportunity.

I think that Keith is slimy and ugly. He has the face of a rat with a bad over-bite problem and he is so insecure that he had to use someone elses work in his portfolio and then cover that up as a research project for a forecaster

as everyone should know project runways episodes are far in advance meaning they have already happened..... obviously keith michael isnt the one getting kicked off the show because if he was he wouldnt have defended himself and gave the judges great compliments.... so frankly i dont beleive hes the one getting kicked off.... but it was wrong of him to include other fashion runway styles in his porfolio.... but i dont think he'll get kicked off for it.... and if he was getting kicked off for it dont you think he would have explained to the judges what the pictures were for...... so i don think hes the one getting kicked off...
