Kathy on HGTV's Design Star Sunday Night

So- yes! Sunday night September 6th Kathy will be on HGTV's 'Design Star.' And just in case you haven't been watching, or quite possibly have no idea what this show is- let me fill you in. I know all about it, because I- shamefully- have been watching.

'Design Star' is basically HGTV's 'Project Runway,' or it would be the bastard child of 'The Next Food Network Star' and Bravo's 'Top Design.' Contestants design spaces each week in hopes of having their own makeover show on HGTV next year.

And I'm not sure if tomorrow is the last episode of the season or not, but they are definitely down to the final three. So- if you want to go into the show knowing a little bit of what's gone on- let me boil it down for you.

Over the last two weeks they've axed an annoying Perez Hilton look-a-like and a surprisingly stiff southern blonde. This leaves the final three: Antonio (below- he's working with Kathy!)- he's been called the Tony Soprano of design, a fairly (no offense) boring non-southern blonde lady (not pictured), and the cute gay guy who I think is named Dan (further below).

I feel like the odds are in Antonio's favor as the lady is more boring than sweet mother Martha on Nyquil, and last year's design star winner was a cute gay guy (the host of 'Color Splash.') I could really see either of the guys hosting a show, but can't think of another home makeover host with as much testosterone as Antonio and I believe this makes the show his to lose.

I know this all sounds gayer than words- and oh yeah, it is. But it was airing in the dry spell before 'Project Runway' started up again and now I just gotta see who wins! So check your local listings (think it airs 10/9pm central tomorrow), and it's also on my Comcast OnDemand if you have that kind of service and you miss it.

Oh- on the show each designer is going to be doing a room for a 'celebrity' client, and they are all celebrities- of Kathy's level (the other two are Kelly from 'Saved by the Bell' and Brandon from 'Beverly Hills 90210.')
