Heidi Klum's Project Runway sidekick Tim Gunn called in to Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM show this morning with...a spoiler, perhaps?

In between knockin' presidential candidate Hillary Clinton's "stale look" and Simon Cowell's "courageous" sweater choices, the fashion guru took a moment to praise Project Runway finalist Christian Siriano.

"I've never encountered anyone quite like him in the fashion industry at this age. To have such a very strong point of view, such unbridled confidence and such maturity as a designer—it's quite staggering," Tim said of the aspiring designer.

Strangely enough, there wasn't a mention of anyone else on the show. Is Tim playing favorites? Is this a sign of some less-than-fierce competition? Or could he be consoling the loser of tonight's finale? We can't wait to find out.
