Have you heard the news? The forthcoming season of Project Runway—the world's least-despicable reality competition, in which up-and-coming fashion designers compete for spots at New York's Fashion Week, making it solely on the basis of work and creativity and careful time-management, and gaining nothing from hating or sabotaging each other—features a contestant from Seattle!

History buffs may remember Logan Neitzel's face from 2005, when he was crowned Seattle's Sexiest Bar Back in the pages of The Stranger. Here's what he had to say back then:

SEXIEST BAR-BACK

Logan Neitzel is a bar back at Marcus' Martini Heaven in Pioneer Square. He spends his evenings lifting buckets of ice and bending over to clear tables.

Do customers hit on you at work?
Hell yeah. A 40-year-old woman tried to get her husband to pay me to take my shirt off behind the bar. I would have done it for free. But he wouldn't ask.

Where do you go when you go drinking?
I hang out at the Whisky Bar, the Bad JuJu Lounge, Neumo's. I'm a fashion designer too. I have a show coming up in May. Ladies have to be fashionable to get my attention.

Now Logan's a bartender at Smith and, of course, an up-and-coming fashion designer. But most importantly, he's a contestant on Project effing Runway, where I hope he rules rules RULES.

For now, we can only speculate, so let's get to it.

What kind of Project Runway contestant do you hope Logan Neitzel will be?

The new season of Project Runway begins August 20.

The hot, talented straight guy would be really cool. The flamer thing has been way over done.
