Christian Siriano an Asian Lesbian?


CHRISTIAN SIRIANO X390 (GETTY) | ADVOCATE.COM

While talking about his Thursday show for New York’s Fashion Week, Project Runway’s Christian Siriano told The New York Observer men often mistake him for an Asian lesbian.

"Ugh, they're all so fucking pretty," Siriano said while fitting a model for his show. "How do people deal? I get catcalls on Eighth Avenue. Guys think I'm an Asian lesbian. How do these girls even walk around?"

Siriano also praised the show for launching his career and lamented that the celebrities who ask to sit in the front row of his shows are people like Brooke Shields and Haylie Duff.

    Who could mistake him for a lesbian? He doesn't even have a Justin Beiber hair cut.
