Tim Gunn Pitches In His Pants

Ever dreamed of dressing as well as "Project Runway" star Tim Gunn?

Here's your chance: The Washington native has donated an autographed pair of Lucky Brand jeans to Clothes Off Our Back, a charity founded by actor Bradley Whitford and his wife, actress Jane Kaczmarek. It auctions celebrity attire and donates the proceeds to child-advocacy groups.

Gunn wrote "Make it work!" in the waistband of the size 30 jeans, which bidders can squabble over on the organization's Web site ( http://www.clothesoffourback.com) until Sept. 17. The opening bid is $50.

Noted . . .

Former teen star Mackenzie Phillips, 48, is facing felony drug charges after being arrested last week for possession of heroin and cocaine at Los Angeles International Airport. The "One Day at a Time" star, who has struggled with substance abuse for many years, has entered rehab, People magazine reported yesterday.

. . . And Quoted

"The ladies like to see that masculine build. They question if I still got it." -- R&B singer Usher, who is planning a cozy, 15-stop tour -- for female fans only. "This album . . . was more intimate," the 29-year-old entertainer told the AP of his latest effort, "Here I Stand." "So what better way to get up close and personal than to make it all women?" Hope his wife, Tameka Foster, won't mind.
