Those still ailing from upset stomachs over the move of the beloved Project Runway from Bravo to Lifetime may want to stop reading this post now:
According to several reviews, the upcoming two-part Lifetime film, Coco Chanel, which focuses primarily on the latter part of the legendary designer's life, is oh so terrible, to say the least.
The New York Times, in particular, is overly irritated with the fact that the actresses chosen to star as Chanel, Shirley McLaine plays the mature Chanel while Barbara Bobulova is the younger version, look nothing alike -- saying there is "no resemblance to one another other than they both like a well-cut suit".
Ouch. But the newspaper's harsh words didn't stop me from watching Cashmere Mafia (R.I.P.), so I'm willing to waste an hour or so to see if the beautiful mess lives up to its reputation.
If you're down too, the first of the film airs on Lifetime on September 13th.
