♪ ♪ ♪
>> YAY!
HI!
I'M SO EXCITED TO BE HERE BECAUSE YOU'VE NEVER INVITED ME
EVER.
THIS IS MY FIRST TIME.
>> Stephen: I DON'T KNOW WHETHER I'VE NEVER INVITED YOU.
MAYBE YOU'VE NEVER ACCEPTED THE INVITATION BEFORE.
>> I ALWAYS WOULD.
>> Stephen: I FEEL LIKE I MET YOU BACKSTAGE AT THE EMMYS OR
SOMETHING, WE RUBBED SHOULDERS.
>> SOME MAKEUP ON YOUR SHOULDER.
>> Stephen: EXACTLY.
I KNOW I'VE SEEN YOU IN THE WILD.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: YES.
>> I SEE YOU ON TV ALL THE TIME SO I FEEL LIKE I KNOW YOU.
>> Stephen: THIS IS MY NATURAL HABITAT.
>> YOU LOOK GREAT IN PERSON.
>> Stephen: THANK YOU.
YOU LOOK FANTASTIC IN PERSON.
THIS IS A REALLY GOOD INTERVIEW SO FAR.
>> THANKS.
>> Stephen: YOU-- YOU'RE A HOST AND A JUDGE, BUT YOU ARE NO
STRANGER TO COMPETITION YOURSELF, BECAUSE YOU STARTED
MODELING BY WINNING A MODELING CONTEST IN 19--
>> I DID.
IN 1992.
>> Stephen: HAPPY 30th ANNIVERSARY OF STARTING YOUR
MODELING CAREER.
>> THANK YOU.
>> Stephen: WHAT WERE THE FIRST-- WHAT WERE THE FIRST
MODELING GIGS YOU GOT?
>> OH, I DID ONE ONE COMMERCIAL FOR SWATCH WATCHES.
I DID ONE WHERE IT WAS FOR A BRA, I THINK IT WAS WONDER BRA,
SOMETHING LIKE THAT, WHERE IT WAS NOT MY FACE, UNFORTUNATELY.
IT WAS JUST MY BRE BREASTS AND Y HANDS.
I DID A LOT OF HAND MODELING THEN.
>> Stephen: THEY HIRED YOU TO BE A HAND MODEL.
>> HANDS AND BREASTS.
>> Stephen: ONE MORE TIME.
>> I WAS SUPPOSED TO OPEN THE CLASP IN THE FRONT, AS I OPENED
IT, AND IT OPENS, AND THE TV GOES FOR IT, AND THE TV BREAKS.
BUT THAT WAS IT.
NO HEAD, NOTHING ELSE, IT WAS JUST THIS PART.
>> Stephen: AT WHAT POINT WERE YOU ALLOWED TO USE YOUR SKULL?
>> A FEW YEARS AFTER THAT.
>> Stephen: REALLY?
>> YEAH.
>> Stephen: IT IT TOOK A FEW YEARS TO GO, "THAT'S GOOD, TOO."
>> BUT I NEVER LEFT, AND I I'M STILL HERE.
THAT'S GOOD.
I START HERD, MOVED MY WAY UP TO HERE.
( APPLAUSE ).
>> Stephen: BUT LET'S-- LET'S MOVE DOWN FOR A MOMENT.
>> YOU HAVE TO START SOMEWHERE.
>> Stephen: IS IT TRUE YOUR LEGS ARE INSURED BY LLOYD'S OF
LONDON?
>> YES.
NOT ANYMORE, NOT ANYMORE.
>> Stephen: THEY WERE.
>> IT WAS $2 MILLION.
>> Stephen: WAIT, $2 MILLION A LEG.
OR ONE PER LEG.
>> THIS ONE LEG WAS WAY MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE OTHER LEG.
I THINK THIS ONE WAS ONLY, LIKE, $700,000 AND THIS ONE WAS $1.3.
BECAUSE I HAVE A LITTLE SCAR ON THIS LEG, WHEN I FELL INTO A
GLASS.
>> Stephen: LET ME SEE.
>> SEE IT.
>> Stephen: HIDEOUS.
ABSOLUTELY HIDEOUS.
THAT'S $300,000 OF DAMAGE RIGHT THERE.
>> LOOK AT THAT.
LOOK AT THAT!
>> Stephen: HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?
>> I FELL ON A IN A CLASS BECAUSE I WASN'T LISTENING, I
WAS YOUNG.
I STILL DON'T LISTEN.
I WAS RUNNING AROUND A TABLE, OUTSIDE, WITH LOTS OF FRIENDS,
AND THEY SAID, "STOP RUNNING AROUND UNDERSTAND THE TABLE
BECAUSE THERE ARE ALL THESE GLASSES."
BOOM, CONNECT, SEVEN STITCHES LATER AND $700,000 LEG, VERSUS
-- >> Stephen: STILL PRETTY WILL
GOOD PRICE FOR A LEG.
>> IT WASN'T ME.
IT WAS A CLIENT WHO DID THAT.
>> Stephen: WHO INSURED YOUR LEGS.
>> YES.
>> Stephen: WHAT WOULD HAVE TO HAPPEN TO GET THEM, SOMETHING
BAD?
>> I DON'T KNOW.
IT WAS LIKE AN EPI -- >> Stephen: TO TAKE THE HAIR
OFF YOUR LEGGING.
>> SO THEY INSURE MID LEGS.
THEY'RE NOT INSURED ANYMORE.
IT WAS MANY, MANY MOONS AGO.
>> Stephen: ROGER CONWAY, HOSTING THAT FOR 16 SEASONS.
AND NOW THIRD SEASON OF "MAKING THE CUT."
>> YES.
>> Stephen: IT'S A FASHION DESIGN REALITY SHOW--
>> IT'S A DESIGN COMPETITION SHOW.
>> Stephen: HOW DOES "MAKING THE CUT" DIFFER FROM "PROJECT
RUN WAY."
>> I'M STILL WITH MY TV HUSBAND, TIM GUNN.
WHO I LOVE SO DEARLY.
I MEAN, 16 YEARS WE DID "PROJECT RUNWAY TOGETHER, SCBTS NOW THREE
YEARS "MAKING THE CUT."
WHAT IS DIFFERENT NOW IS ACTUALLY ALL OF YOU CAN SHOP THE
BEAUTIFUL CLOTHES THAT ARE BEING MADE ON THE SHOW.
YOU KNOW, THEY HAVE A VERY SHORT TIME, AND I GIVE THEM A
CHALLENGE, AND THEN THEY HAVE TO KNOW-- SOMETIMES THEY HAVE ONE
DAY OR TWO DAYS TO PLAC THIS ASSIGNMENT.
AND THEN WE HAVE A WINNING LOOK, AND THAT LOOK YOU CAN BUY ON
AMAZON, BECAUSE MY SHOW IS ON AMAZON PRIME.
IMMEDIATELY YOU SEE IT -- >> Stephen: YOU SAY, "I LIKE
THOSE PANTS OR THAT BLOUSE," AND I CAN GO BUY IT.
>> EXACTLY.
>> Stephen: WHAT IS TIM GUNN LIKE IN REALITY?
>> EXACTLY--LY -- >> Stephen: I THINK HE'S JUST
A TREASURE.
>> HE IS.
>> Stephen: HE'S SO CALMING, LIKE JUST A WARM BATH TO LISTEN
TO.
( LAUGHTER ).
>> HE IS.
AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND HALF THE THINGS HE SAYS SO WE GET ALONG
GREAT.
HE HAS SO MANY WORDS-- I LEARNED ONE THE OTHER DAY.
TITILLATING, I THOUGHT IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH SOMETHING
ELSE.
THAT IT WAS A NAUGHTY THING TO SAY.
>> Stephen: SOMETIMES IT DOES.
>> TITILLATING.
>> Stephen: DEPENDING WHAT YOU'RE INTO.
>> I SAID, "TIM, I DON'T THINK YOU CAN SAY THAT."
HE SAID, "OF COURSE WE CAN SAY TITILLATING.
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT."
SO THAT'S AMAZING.
HE ALWAYS TEACHES ME NEW WORDS.
>> Stephen: DOES HE GET EMBARRASSED?
>> ABOUT ME.
>> Stephen: NO, DOES HE GET-- HE LOOKS LIKE A GUY WHO WOULD
BLUSH EASILY.
>> AND HE DOESN'T WEAR ANY MAKEUP.
>> Stephen: HE DOESN'T?
WHAT'S HIS REGIMEN?
DOES HE JUST EXFOLATE BECAUSE HE LOOKS POLISHED.
>> I DON'T KNOW.
HE FEELS LIKE IT'S NOT FOR HIM.
HE DOESN'T WANT TO DO IT.
NO FOUNDATION, NO POWDER, NOTHING.
NORMALLY PEOPLE ON TV, MEN AND WOMEN, USUALLY WEAR --
>> Stephen: I NEVER WEAR MAKEUP, SO I WOULDN'T KNOW.
WE HAVE A CLIP HERE.
WHAT DO WE NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE TWO OF YOU, OUT IN THE
DESERT SOMEPLACE?
>> YES, WE'RE OUT IN THE DESERT.
THIS IS A CHALLENGE ABOUT FESTIVALWARE.
WHAT THE DESIGNERS ALWAYS HAVE TO DO, THEY HAVE TO DO AN
OVER-THE-TOP FANTASY OUTFIT, AND THE SECOND LOOK IS THE LOOK YOU
CAN HOPEFULLY BUY ON AMAZON.
>> Stephen: SO READY TO WEAR.
>> ONLY ONE WINS.
HERE WE ARE IN THE DESERT AND THEY'RE MAKING FESTIVEWARE.
I'M SO INTO THE DESERT RUNWAY SHOW.
>> HIDE, AS YOU KNOW, I'M MUCH MORE OF A CITY PERSON BUT THIS
IS BREATHTAKING.
>> IT IS.
>> WE ARE IN THE HIGH DESERT OF CALIFORNIA.
IT HAS BEEN A HOLLYWOOD FILMING LOCATION SINCE 1905.
HOW FABULOUS IS THAT?
>> LOVE IT.
>> I MEAN, IT DOES LOOK LIKE WE'RE IN HOLLYWOOD.
IT LOOKS LI LOOKS LIKE THIS WASN SCREEN, DOESN'T IT?
BUT THOSE ARE REAL.
>> Stephen: YOU'RE WEARING BASICALLY A TURTLENECK
LONG-SLEEVED DRESS.
>> IT'S A DOLCE.
>> Stephen: HOW MUCH WERE YOU SWEATING UNDER THERE.
>> YOU ALSO KNOW THIS IS TELEVISION AND THINGS ARE NOT IN
SEQUENCE.
WE FILMED MANY, MANY MOONS AGO AND IN THE DESERT IT IS
FREEZING.
>> Stephen: AT NIGHT IT'S FREEZING.
IN THE DAY, ISN'T IT HOT?
>> NO, NO, NO.
WHEN WE WERE FILMING THIS-- I THINK WE WERE FILMING THIS, I
WANT TO SAY IN NOVEMBER OR DECEMBER WE WERE FILMING THIS.
>> Stephen: OKAY.
IT MUST BE HIGH DESERT, SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
>> IT IS COLD OUT THERE.
>> Stephen: YEAH.
>> YEAH, IT'S COLD IN THE MORNING AND GETS REALLY COLD AT
THE END OF THE DAY.
>> Stephen: WE HAVE TO TAKE A QUICK BREAK, BUT WHEN WE COME
BACK, WE WILL FIND OUT HEIDI'S SECRET TALENT.
STICK AROUND, Y'ALL.
