Nina Garcia made a cameo in last week’s episode of Ugly Betty, but I’m told things didn’t go too smoothly.

A source spills that Project Runway judge and ousted Elle editor repeatedly flubbed her lines during the shoot. “It took, like, hours,” the source says. “They had to keep doing take after take after take. And it was for, like, the smallest bit!”

Meanwhile, things continue to be a bit awkward for Garcia and Project Runway. I’m told Runway producers are still trying to hammer out how they’ll describe Garcia next season now that she’s no longer with the magazine.
