Supermodel and newlywed Molly Sims came out for a chat with Renee Bargh of Extra about her new Lifetime show, Project Accessory.
The leggy blonde rocked a polka-dot blue blazer with leather leggings but was seen without new hubby, producer Scott Stuber.
Back to her new show, who would have thought you could focus an entire TV show on accessories? Well, Sims and Lifetime sure hope viewers will tune in and love their new Project Runway spin-off creation which premieres Thursday at 10:30 p.m.
Sims will play host on the series which will pit 12 contestants against each other in various accessory design challenges.
Sims will be joined by the contestants’ mentor, Eva Jeanbart-Lorenzotti, and judges designer Kenneth Cole and InStyle Editor, Ariel Foxman. Will & Grace’s Debra Messing will guest judge on the show’s premiere.
Sims, who has only been married a month, is learning how to cook for two. She said learning by trial and error has proved difficult at times. Here she is showing Bargh a burn she received when her blender full of cauliflower and Parmesan “exploded everywhere.”
