Christian Siriano to Appear on Ugly Betty

Fierce Project Runway winner Christian Siriano will grace Ugly Betty with his fabulous presence when he appears on the show on May 1. When asked who was the fiercest of all the cast members Siriano said:

“Ooooh, they’re as fierce and ferocious as they can be,” raves Siriano. “Vanessa Williams is the queen of fierceness and Becki Newton is the princess … I’m inviting them all to my Spring 2008-09 collection.”

The show should make Siriano a regular.
