Project Runway: Former contestant charged with assault

Categories: Television

She wasn’t going for elegance, Heidi. Kenley Collins, the beautiful-but-brusque season 5 finalist on the reality series Project Runway, was arrested Tuesday in Brooklyn on assault charges, People.com reports.
Collins, 26, allegedly attacked a man with her laptop computer. Police charged her with two counts of assault, plus criminal possession of a weapon and harrassment.

Unconfirmed early reports from TMZ.com said that the designer, known for her glam 1940s style, had allegedly attacked her sleeping ex-fiancé with water, the laptop, some apples and her pet cat. TMZ.com also reported that Collins was being held in jail.

    Somehow, I’m not surprised. She’s a nitwit with some serious psychological issues.

    I knew she had crazy eyes on PR. And apparently, the producers didn’t edit the show to make her look like an immature brat. She just is! Lucky for Kors et al there were no fruit baskets or computers to throw at them when she received criticism.

    Gotta stay in the public eye by any means necessary… it’s not like her design work’s gonna get any press

    Of all the C-list celebrity daughters of tugboat captains out there, I am utterly shocked that Kenley was the one to be arrested.
