Veronica Webb: Tim Gunn's New Fashion Sidekick

at .

That didn't take long.

We recently reported that Bravo was looking for a female to co-host with Tim Gunn on his upcoming reality show, Tim Gunn's Guide to Style.

The network has now found that special someone: Veronica Webb. The press release identifies her as:

"One of the world's leading supermodels" and "a journalist, essayist, author and actress." She's also "the first African-American woman to sign a major cosmetics contract."

"We think Veronica will make the perfect complement to Tim â€" she'll add a little sass to his class," said Bravo VP Frances Berwick. "She not only brings extensive fashion expertise to the series, but she will be someone for our makeover subjects to lean on, creating a fun, comfortable, yet educational experience that our viewers can learn from."

No matter what, though, she'll never be Heidi Klum. Sorry to break it to you, Veronica.
