Afternoon Palate Cleanser: Happy Birthday, Tim Gunn!

Afternoon Palate Cleanser: Happy Birthday, Tim Gunn!

Today, designers, is Tim Gunn's 60th birthday. The universally loved mentor on all twelve seasons of Project Runway has become a celebrity and fashion icon in his own right, and is probably the most popular persona on the show given how bitchy the rest of them are — though we sorely miss the Paul Lynde-esque wit of Michael Kors, who's no longer a regular judge. In Tim's honor, we bring you a couple highlight reels of his always articulate and often hilarious encouragement and critiques. But first, above, his 2010 appearance on CBS's "I Get That A Lot," in which he pretended to be an anonymous employee at a hot dog shop in New Jersey called Johnny and Hanges.

And we just have two words for you: clown clothes.

And finally, the beat-down he gave to lame, manipulative Gretchen during Season 8, before she went on to beat Mondo and win the whole thing.
