A&E 'Project Runway': Heidi just like Darth Vader?

Blayne's words not mine. The tank-topped tanorexic likened Klum to the Star Wars villian by saying "She's shiny on the outside and crazy on the inside." Huh? She's way more fembot than Vader.
Other memorable quotes from last night's "green" episode:
Jerell: "I am saucy!" (after Jennifer "snatches up" his model).
Tim (to the group): "How is everyone?"
Suede: "Dandelions."
Natalie Portman guest judged last night's challenge, which included sending the models to Mood for environmentally friendly materials (Portman recently launched a vegan shoe line). Wesley's, Leanne's and Joe's models all returned with the same shiny brown satin (dubbed "team ugly brown fabric" by Jerell) that landed both Wesley and Leanne in the bottom three with Korto. Wesley was sent home — ack! Only the second episode and I've already got strike one against my final three prediciton.
The episode's premise was well-intentioned, but I think it would've been more ineteresting and effective to have the designers repurpose used clothes from Goodwill or vintage shops instead of buying brand new materials.
My personal favorite was Terri's belted midnight-blue dress, but Suede's criss-cross tutu won.
