'Project Runway': Inside Season 6!

WHAT'S NEW ON THE RUNWAY

THE L.A. LOCALE Shooting in a new city ''gave us a little twist, a different energy,'' says EP Cha. ''There was excitement on the set every day.'' Still, the show had to stick to the city's quiet downtown area to steer clear of L.A.'s epic traffic.

MORE CELEB JUDGES The revolving panel includes Eva Longoria Parker, Christina Aguilera, Rebecca Romijn, Lindsay Lohan, and Bob Mackie. And once, says Cha, ''we had a near fainting when the designers saw who the guest judge was.''

NEW SPONSORSTRESemme out, Garnier in! Also gone is the Bluefly.com Accessories Wall; contestants will use an array of goods from Macy's. Finally, judge Nina Garcia's new employer, Marie Claire, takes over for Elle as the featured mag.

THE PRIZE: PARIS! This season's winner gets $100,000, a fashion spread inMarie Claire, and an all-expenses-paid trip for two to Paris. Sorry, no more free Saturn Astras for the top designer — but who wouldn't prefer a stroll around the City of Light?

MODELS OF THE RUNWAY The 30-minute spin-off will air each week after Runway and focus on the same drama — but from the perspective of the ladies on the catwalk. ''It's a little looser,'' says EP Murray. ''More behind the scenes.''

'Smallville' scoop: Are they casting Zod?!

It sure sounds like it based on this season 9 casting notice that just fell into my lap:

MASON: Late 20's early 30's. He's a handsome charismatic charmer who savors life. He appreciates good food, loves fast cars and sees beauty in every woman. There isn't a detail in life that eludes his senses. He is a master of seduction... knowing what everyone wants and needs before they do. But don't let his magnetism fool you. There's more than meets the eye. His intelligence can't be matched. He outmaneuvers everyone in his path. Though he longs to find a home, that vulnerability can be twisted -- making him a force to be reckoned with."

Thoughts?!

Adam Lambert on His Sexuality: 'Keep Speculating'

Adam Lambert says role models come in a variety of different forms – even in eye makeup, fingernail polish and tight pants. 

"It's a really, really cool thing," the American Idol runner-up says, "to be able to show people that you can be yourself, and you should be proud of yourself, and you should own who you are and what you're about, and never make apologies for it." 

So to those who speculate about his sexuality, he has a message. "Calm down," he says, and "keep speculating." 

"Conforming is not cool," he adds. "Embracing who you are and what makes you different is actually what's really cool ... The kids that are different and out there and expressive and are bold with those choices, those are the people that grow up to be people we all want to hang out with, that become celebrities or become really successful in what they do because they believe in who they are." 

As for all the talk about his personal life, Lambert says just one word when asked if he'll address his sexuality directly, say in an upcoming issue of Rolling Stone: "Maybe." 

Nicollette Sheridan's BF -- Like A Horse

You all know that I love my Nicollette Sheridan to know end but desperate housewife or not, Nicollette Sheridan needs to do some research before she gets back on the horse.

TMZ  found out Sheridan's new beau, Steven Pate, was convicted of receiving four stolen horses from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo Rodeo Arena back in 2000. The horses were ridden by students for rodeo competitions.

We're told a mare and three geldings were led out of their stable on September 27, 2000 and disappeared. When the reward swelled to $10,000, Steven Pate just happened to show up with all sorts of info. He was arrested and charged with 5 felonies, including Grand Theft Animal. 

Pate pled no contest to felony "receiving stolen property" and was sentenced to 6 days in county jail.  When he completed all the terms of his probation, the conviction was bumped down to a misdemeanor.

A rep for Nicollette tells us Pate didn't know the horses were stolen when he received them, and that he was the one who brought the info to the attention of authorities.

Jessica Simpson to Star in Reality Show About Body Issues

Jessica Simpson knows how to turn hard times into good times.

According to a report in Us magazine, the singer — who endured serious criticism for donning some unflattering mom jeans earlier this year — may be soon starring in a reality series about the beauty issues women face in society.

“The Price of Beauty,” as the show may be potentially called, would center around Simpson and a friend on a trip around the world to explore different beauty standards.

The former reality star, who rose to fame on her “Newlyweds” series with her ex-husband Nick Lachey, will even try some of “the shocking things that women do to make themselves beautiful. Picture ‘Fear Factor.’”

The star will likely be “very hands on” with the show, according to an insider.

Simpson's rep confirmed to Us that the star is indeed working on a new show, but the details have yet to be finalized.

Gym etiquette 101

Going to the gym can be pleasant or, well, not so pleasant. The difference is often due to how others conduct themselves while working out.

Competitive bodybuilder and fitness coach Gennaro Ferra offers some basic etiquette for all gym goers to keep in mind.

Replace weights - There’s nothing more basic than this. Not only does putting weights and dumbbells back where they belong make finding them easy, but it makes workouts more efficient and safe.

Cut the clanking - Letting the weights you’re lifting drop hard is extremely distracting to others and it can easily damage equipment.

Forget cell phones - Cell chatting should be restricted to either a designated area or outside. Never, ever on the gym floor.

Wipe sweat away - Sweating is a byproduct of a hard workout, but others don’t want to know that. After you’re done with equipment, wipe it down and spray it with disinfectant.

Take turns - If you’re going to be a while with equipment, allow others to work in (use it while you rest).

Keep it quiet - Grunting and yelling is really not necessary. Just like talking, it’s distracting.

Be efficient - Value your time. If you’re waiting for equipment, kindly ask to work in or find an equivalent piece. There’s nothing worse than wasting workout time by waiting.

Don’t misuse gear - It’s OK to be creative, but when you start hanging from cables, management should be notified. This can cause injury and it sets a bad example for those wishing to learn proper technique.

Baby Boomers Quitting Facebook

Facebook may be losing ground among its older users, according to Inside Facebook.

Over the past few months, baby boomers joined the popular social networking site in droves, creating some inter-generational tensions in the process. From February and March, though, to April and May, that trend seems to have reversed. According to data that Facebook supplies to its advertisers, the 55-to-65-year-old age group's activity has drastically declined over the past couple months (by 651,080, to be exact), making it the only demographic to experience an overall drop in numbers.

The data is not accompanied by any reasons why baby boomers are quitting, but Inside Facebook wonders if the over-55 set just hasn't figured out how to use the real-time updates that were implemented on social network's recent facelift. Then again, it could be all the phishing scams that have surfaced on the service lately. We think it might just be because half the time we try to send messages on social network, we get an error message telling us to log in again (very annoying), or any of a myriad of other reasons to quit Facebook.

While their parents seem to be fleeing Facebook, 18-to-25-year olds are spending more time on the site than ever. Since the end of March, nearly 2 million new members have joined up in that age bracket. The root of these developing Facebook trends? We'd bet that those Gen Y-ers, finding themselves unemployed and out of school, are aiming to waste some time and distract themselves. Meanwhile, we'd guess that their parents, in light of their companies' tightening belts, are laying off the during-office-hours browsing.

How about you? Are you still on Facebook? Have you thought about quitting?
