Sad news, gays. Project Runway season four contestant Jack Mackenroth, who had to leave the show after a staph infection, will not be auditioning for the show's fifth season. "During my short stint on season 4, I was never in the bottom three and I won the menswear challenge, which is my field of expertise, so I feel like I accomplished most of what I started."

This, the fourth season of Project Runway, will be over before this winter heat wave. (Oops, there it went!) And whoever wins, whether it's Rami, Christian, or that annoying brunette, will be forever lost to pop culture, showing up only at Lizzie Grubman events for a WireImage photo, just like the casts before them.

But not Jack! Mr. Mackenroth – who we know more intimately than other PR contestants, both in the flesh (NSFW) and in the know – has himself his own personal PR agency.

Michael Rogers PR has been assigned the task, and cashed the retainer cheque, to keep Jack's name relevant. It helps, then, that he's dating fellow reality star Dale Levitski, of Top Chef.

How else would Jack's PR team been able to issue a press release announcing those two were going on a date?

• A security supervisor at Catfish Bend Casinos in Iowa was fired for putting up the Dilbert cartoon above. He wasn't a "team player." Apparently at Catfish Ben Casinos, watching security footage to see who put up an innocuous cartoon is a team player move.

• Being a role model is great and all, but Jack Mackenroth would rather not have HIV.

We heard about Project Runway contestant Jack Mackenroth even before the series started. Spoilers have it that the sewing hunk leaves in the fifth episode when he develops an HIV Staph infection. Even though Mackenroth is still in primetime, he’s bolstered his B-level celebrity by posing naked.

Oh, Jack, you’re supposed to save those naked pictures for after the show ends.

NSFW pictures at Queerty.

Rumor has it that Project Runway booted out designer Jack Mackenroth in the fifth episode for developing an HIV Staph infection.

The skin infection apparently made his skin blow up “like the kid from Mask.”

Bravo rejecting an HIV positive contestant is sort of like having an HIV-negative-only gay dance party. Oh wait, that already happened.
