Project Runway’s lovable Michael Knight, recently sat down with Jawn Murray to talk about those Brandy rumors, what he is going to do with that 10,000 check, and what he wants out of this whole fashion thing.
ON BRANDY
“Headlines are headlines. I don’t care about that. I want to dress Brandy, that’s what I want to happen. So Brandy, if you are ever reading this, I want to dress you. She needs to be wearing some Michael Knight.”JAWN: So you want to dress Brandy. Understood! But are you also undressing Brandy?
“I want her to wear one of my outfits, that’s what I am saying. I want her to wear one of my garments,” he shot back.
JAWN: So you’re not going to confirm or deny this report?
“I don’t care about the dating stuff. I’m really on the rise of my career. That’s what I am focused on! That’s what I am looking for in the headlines: ‘Brandy wears Michael Knight on the red carpet of something.’ That’s my focus,” he said, indicating he was ready to move on.ON HIS 10,000 PRIZE FOR WINNING ‘FAN FAVORITE’
When he was on ‘The View’, he said he might splurge on a watch, but then went on to say:
“I don’t know what I am going to do with the money. I’m not that frivolous with my money. I don’t even wear watches, to be honest. I don’t even wear jewelry. When I figure it out, I’ll do something.”ON WHETHER OR NOT HE WAS GAY
“It’s been said. You know what it is. Everybody knows what it is, so there’s no need to even go there. I’m trying to establish myself as a designer. I’m not trying to establish my personal life and who I am and all that kind of stuff to people. My family knows, my friends know and whoever I am dating knows.” (On Bravo’s blog, he recently said he wasn’t gay. Click here to read..)
Also, Bravo is bidding off the finale designs of Michael, Laura, Uli, & Jeffrey. Click here for more info..
Good for him, I likes him.
I love me some Michael, he should have took the prize I could go over and over about how he should of won. Heck Laura could have won it.
Uli..carbon copy outfits
Jeffery, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt his ass cheated. He cusses out a contestents mother, he cusses out contestents, he goes over budget and his collection is immaculate. And some how his ass wins.
I want to wear some Michael Knight!!
I’m actually going to be nice this time before Bouga goes off at me again for saying negative stuff about Brandy, Ha ha ha…
I’m sure Brandy will look strikingly beautiful in Michael Knight’s garments, seriously.
uh.
ok.
Why brandy?
I dont get it. If you gay, say you gay. If you straight, SAY IT!! What is with the speculation bull$h!t. It is sooo Hollywood. I think its a ploy to keep people drawn to you. I didn’t think he was gay…but since he won’t answer the damn question……
As far as Brandy….I wont EVEN go there…(keep praying Bill)
EBONY77:
I agree…but, he did say he was NOT gay on the Bravo web site a while back when the rumors first started. So I dont think he should keep harping on that question.
I dont blame him, no one asks me if I am straight….so why do they ALWAYS want to know if a gay or supposedly gay person is gay….
I could care less if he’s gay or straight, I just think he’s a fabulous new designer and is also adorable. When he comes out with a line for “normal” sized women, I’ll be very interested.
Normal sized women?
HA!
ps. Bwauhaahhahah
celebrities trip me the hell out when they are asked about theyre sexuality, instead of just saying yes or no they beat around the answer. Missy did it, ryan seacrest recently did it on tyra and now here he comes wit “It is what it is”. shoot that shyt str8 from the hip, it comes off as i dont want to posibly ruin my career but at the same time for those that know i get down i dont want to offend them either.
nothing against Michael knight, I think he is a cool as designer even though his runway designs werent up to par. wish him the best!!!!!
I don’t care if he or ANY man is gay because I ain’t going to fuck him (No Homo Here) BUT it does bother me that these individuals can’t seem to give a straight answer to a straight (to-the-point) simple question… You’re in the public’s eye so you put yourself in that situation to begin with, We all know how stupid and insensitive these reporters are BUT again You/They chose to be in this industry of entertainment!!!
Just answer the fucking question and be done with…
No I’m not gay (End of Story) or Yes I’m gay and No I don’t want to talk further about my personal sexuality Thank You…
Now HOW Fucking HARD was that to do
Gay or straight, I love his work.
Let me start off by saying Michael should have won, But if I had to choose another winner instead it should have been Uli. I just think that Jeffrey line looked like sh*t and that goes to prove that the right color has alot of advantages in this world. Here is a young black male that has alot to offer to young people with his designs. His designs actually has alot of style. I thought alot of his work actually looked alot better than alot of famous designers that are out today. One more thing wheather he is gay or strait who cares it’s his business and no one else besides the person he’s involve with, if he’s involved.
@10 You’re right!
Its time to come clean. Here’s the start of a list of “it is what it is” people who “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”!
Designers and stylist = “it is what it is”
Michael Knight = “it is what it is”
Dre_Sincere = “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”
Pityfulboy = “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”
Music Contributors = “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”
Eddie Murphy = “it is what it is”
Michael Jackson = “it is what it is”
Oprah & Gayle = “it is what it is”
50 cents = “it is what it is”
Ms. Jay Alexander = “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”
_________________? = “it is what it is” or “shoot that shyt str8 from the hip”
your name here
why does it matter?? Is him being gay gonna make his clothes any less fly?? That man dont have to answer any questions he don’t want to answer!!
Excerpt from article continuation:
In an online interview with Andy Cohen, Bravo’s Vice President of Production and Programming, for his blog, Andy’s Blog, Knight was straightforward about the gay issue. When Cohen inquired about the interest in Knight’s sexuality, he vented: “It’s stupid and rude, and I don’t get why it makes a difference either way. The ‘hood side of me wants to say, ‘Why-are you trying to screw me, is that why you’re asking?’ But that’s what I want to say. But, yes I am straight, and no I am not dating anybody. Wow, I can’t believe we are really discussing this!” ____________________________________________________
Maybe I’m reading this wrong, but am I correct to surmise that he’s saying he IS straight? Doesn’t matter, though. I feel kinda badly for Myke. He rode this high wave of approval, then he gets to experience the inevitable backlash, which of course comes with the territory. I just didn’t think it would happen this fast.
Yes, some of us feel we have a right to know the truth about those we look up to and admire, but would we like to be in that position of becoming famous then being pressured to confirm if you’ve ever:
had an abortion
had a same sex experience
ever had herpes or any other std ( i read a list of this on here somewhere)
hit your significant other or
slapped your kids
Not trying to preach here, but I wouldn’t wish it upon any of the posters here.
As for Mr. Knight, he’ll just have learn the savvy and smarts required to either work this to his advantage or get over it, move on and design some fierce shit!
LMAO @ Meatloaf! You are crazy!
If I was Myke I’d just start showing up to events with a man AND a woman just to phuck with the head and play that sexual ambivalent role to a T just get headlines.
Remember when MJ showed up to the Oscars with Brooke Sheilds AND Webster?
On second thought, that gave me the shivers.
shoot this str8 from the hip MEATLOAF
Fuck you!
18
Seek help
LMAO @ Meatloaf! What’s up! I see you starting $hit already.
HE WILL GO FAR. I AM SO TEAM MICHAEL!
I HOPE HIS LINE WONT BE TOO HIGH END SO THAT WE ALL CAN AFFORD TO WEAR HIS DESIGNS BECAUSE I WILL BE STR8 ROCKIN THEM…
LMAO @ OMG that was so funny my ass nearly fell out my damn chair. Ms Jay ALexander come on now…you don’t get any fruitier then that unless your the off spring of Chaquita banana and Tucan Sam. Anyone in their right mind would know he’s gay…but then again Michael Jackson was once black and married to Lisa Marie….wtf why do we care??….only way well ever get proof and know for sure if someone posts up at the foot of his bed with a camcorder when ish is about to go down…any volunteers??
Dudes seems hella difficult.
**DUDE^^^^
Explain to me what “shoot that shyt straight from the hip” means…please???

Fuck you!”
==============================================
No disrespect! lol I mean, when I saw you wearing the tight “woman-beater” t-shirts and posing like “In Living Color’s” Dwayne Edwards and Antoine Marryweather, “Men on Films”, I just thought that you were one of the originals! hehe! Sorry bro! Man-up!
Okay, I’ll remove yo name from the liss, cause you always be trippin!
@MSPINK ~ Ms. Jay is a “str8 from the hip boy!”
Lol, “She needs to be wearing some Michael Knight”
Here’s his fashion website
http://www.mychaelknight.com/
@26 archuletachick asked for someone to please explain the term “shoot that shyt straight from the hip”!
=====================================
This term was first coined by Dre_sincere (who is a manly-man) on post #10! He was expressing his frustrations with the celebrities who beat around the bush rather than saying yes or no about their gayitty! But, he’s a straight dude!
On the other hand, Michael Knight is a “it is what it is” boy!
I don’t know why people stress so much on whether he’s gay or straight. If he says he’s not gay then he’s not gay! No need for a debate on someone you’ve never met.
Gay celebrities are always giving these roundabout ambiguous answers to the sexuality question. If they are so gay and proud why not come out and say it directly instead all that “my momma knows, my lover knows” bullshit. Thats the same shit Clay Aiken does. The world knows ur gay just admit the shit.
Woowhowhoooo!!! lol @ this nigga Meatloaf man!
I can understand him dancing around the question posed about him and Brandy; might not want everybody up in they business like that. But…I’m sorry man; all the straight cats I know are answering that last question, and they answering that shit promptly… “Hell naw Bi**h, are you!”
The interview would been cut short, somebody would had to call the police. lol
Just read a couple of these threads and you’ll understand why he’s being so ambiguous about his sexuality. Backlash like a mutha.
I’m really sick of this new trend of Who’s packing meatball lunches versus Who’s munching carpet dinners. At the end of the day does it make the person less of a person? Do they become less creative or talented because they’re gay, straight, bi?
I’m not even commenting on whether or not it’s nature or nurture or right or wrong. I just want to know what enjoyment people derive from speculating about who someone lays next to at night.
So sad because while a bunch of ya’ll are on here worrying about who’s gay and who isn’t gay, your sons and daughters are on MySpace chatting with some seemingly straight man who’s really a deranged pedophile freak and will likely show up on the next episode of NB’s To Catch a Predator.
I agree with him not answering the question about his sexuality. I mean how many times he gotta say NO he clearly said he wasn’t on Bravo’s Website and Lord knows to whom or what other website he said no he wasn’t gay-when he did say no he was not gay people still kept calling him gay, that shit seems a little frustrating to me. I’ll just tell everyone to kiss my a$$ & believe what you wanna believe.
Lmao @ Ms_mac1…..meatball lunches & carpet dinners! You’re about to get me fired. your’re on point with the MYSPACE comment though.
I’m just wondering when some educational things will be posted up here. I’m tired of reading or hearing about some celebs personal life. Thats why I go on cbsnews or nbc to pick up the more important things that we all should be zoned into. Did anyone even hear about the small aircraft crashing into a Manhattan building. Or how about what’s going on with Iraq. Its sad about crappy black people’s lives are Already (Crime, Killing, Curruption>>>>>Katrina) yet we continue to make thing worse for ourselves by Just Talking about the problems surrounding us without Administrating the necessary actions to get everyone involved so that things can differ from our current situations. All these rapper do is complain, and everyone buys into it. But there’s something you all are forgeting…..Their rich out OUT the ghetto! The don’t relate to you anymore only slightly relate. So young ladies the next time you see a rap video and women degrading themselves for only a few dollars; Think about how you think they feel about themselves and if you think of yourself as independent, self confident, and beautiful. You don’t have to be in a music video shaking your butt to feel beautiful! If your man thinks you do have to be uncomfortable and self lothing to make him feel good then something is wrong with him; He needs to do or say things to make him seem like something he’s not and its pathetic. Oh wow let me go on cbsnew.com and see what I should be worry or conserned about thats happening in my country or other parts in the world that may feel threatened by my county. Take care all. Peace & Love
Slovely’s been smoking that ish ya’ll.
j/k ;0)
I hear ya. Fortunately, and perhaps unfortunately, people have choices. So on the days when I choose not to talk sh!t about random celebs I can pick up a good book or read the WSJ. It starts with teaching kids about these choices though. Some adults are a lost cause. They’ll never get IT.
Arrg! Who cars anymore? I mean damn, his clothes are starting to slip (to me anyway) and that the main reason why he has this new found “fame” in the first place. He needs to take a vacation, find a muse or inspiration, and come back with the hot stuff because the stuff on his website is not kicking it.
Cosign with #37 (ms_mac1). I like my Newsweek and CNN too! LOLS
But then again, this site is intend for non-serious things, (the title does say: CONCRETELOOP.COM | GET YOUR GOSSIP ON), if you don’t want to read it don’t come here. But you and SLovely do have a point; some people will never understand.
shoot it from the hip is an “old folks” term meaning to tell something like it is or to be straight forward, Maybe “shoot it straight from the hip” is a southern phrase and thats why some of you act as if it is a foreign language.
MEATLOAF, no hard feelings…. fortunately i dont get off on starting internet arguments so peace out!!
“Shoot it from the hip” means to give a girl a semen facial where I come from. Oh no, wait, that’s “shoot it from the genitalia.” I mixed the two up..sorry.
=\
#33 ms_mac1 is sick of people asking:
“Who’s packing meatball lunches versus Who’s munching carpet dinners?”
==============================================
lol I’m sick of hearing about gender meals too, but I like to know when I’m dealing with someone who is a derelict, vagrant, bum, schizoprenic, homosexual, seizure prone, pedophilic, crackhead, abuser or homo!
These people are not normal and as such, I talk to them with professionally terms and lessons that they are familiar with! We’re talking about sick people here! It doesn’t matter if they can sing, sew or do ballet, they’re still sick!
lol @ meatloaf!!!! u are insane!
thats right dre_sincere… tell them to get off you!
***i’m a lil instigator, short & slight, i love to play the background when my puppets fight!!***
Now what was that again @caff…
You were shooting for the hip and hit her in the face instead, that must be a Philly thang
@meatloaf… Tell US How You Really Feel
THIS GUY cracks me the fuck up!!!
Ok, that’s for clearing that up ya’ll…
Something Fierce…I love your avatar, lol.
Thanks baby and I love those Sexxy EYES of yours Too
Something Fierce!
Are those really your eyes?
Why not show the rest of your face?
So, you like meatloaf dinners?
#36 ….sounds like you need to get some quick. I mean damn you’ve got one foot off the ledge….DONT JUMP! Life’s tooooo short to look for something to worry about. Ever heard of Xanax?
@ Something Fierce, pardon my ignorance but what exactly IS your avatar a pic of?
I also think Michael should have won. Not because his outfits were on point (like they should have been) but because he had the best personality and the biggest fan base out of the show. Not only that, but if you look back on the past episodes of the show, he was consistent from the beginning. Its stupid that the judges base the decision on just the final show. But I’m sure Micheal will be alright though. Dude DOES have talent.
I think its rude for everyone to keep asking him if he’s gay or straight. To just keep pressing someone with the same question all the time, can get frustrating. The man already said he wasn’t gay, there’s no reason to keep bringing it up. I can kind of understand were he’s coming from now by beating around the bush. Its like, ‘Wait, when did this become any of YOUR business?’
he’s a fag but he can design the hell out of some clothes.
Well, Jeffery won and he cheated! He went over budget, had to get rid of his hot pants and wigs! And you know that fool had help in that big azz sweat shop!
I’m glad pregnant girl blew the whistle on him! Michael was third best cause the German chick had the smoothest $#!T for ladies.
The winner, Jeffery, was not an ameture! He had another show that he was perparing for! Hiedi Klum needs to get her rules together!
I’m through talkin about this gay $#!T!
I’d love to be his friend. Retail shopping would be a thing of my past.
His clothes/designs are absolutely amazing. I still can’t believe that clown Jefferey won. I thought it’d be a battle between Michael and Uli.
mike is gay..hes a lil too flamboyant lol but mike knight is cool with me
Everyone can see that dude is fruity.
like him, the personal ish is sooo boring, over all of that!!
Thanks Something Fierce!!
Meatloaf these are my real eyes. I had my whole pic up for a looong time when I was on here over the summer. I’m sure you don’t remember calling me “Archboo?” LOL. I was on a while ago then…I wasn’t.
MsMac, that avatar is Beyonce giving Jay head…It’s on mediatakeout.

So, basically, “Mine Your Business” is what Mike is saying.
Dude is about his business, anything else is secondary.
I can respect that.

And I can respect that commnet
