In the interest of keeping our readers informed about exciting opportunities to achieve the kind of worldwide fame that only participation on a basic cable reality-competition program can afford, we pass along news of Bravo's opening casting call for the next installment of Project Runway being held downtown all afternoon. Glory awaits:

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA Due to the overwhelming response an additional half-day has been added! Friday, April 13 12pm to 6pm 453 South Spring Street, 7th Floor Los Angeles, CA 90013 (Between 4th and 5th Street)

BE SURE TO BRING:

1. Three articles of clothing of your own design
2. A picture portfolio of your work
3. A completed application form
NOTE: THIS FORM WAS UPDATED ON MARCH 21, 2007!

OPTIONAL: You may bring a live model for your clothes if you wish. It is not required. Models must be 18 years of age or older.

Even if your sewing skills can't support a deep run through the competition, the open call can still provide a chance to make a splash in Runway's glamorous world; providing a live demonstration of your fashion-forward work glue-gunning sequins to your own genitals (scrotal bedazzling is the new hotness, ask anyone!) or sporting a Jeffrey Sebelia-inspired "Fuck Tim Gunn" neck tattoo will, at the very least, guarantee you a prominent place in the "bad audition" montages of the series' opening episode.
