Tough Room: A Look at Our Favorite Latino Judges

Who: Nina Garcia, 45

The Show: Project Runway (Lifetime)

Why we love them:  Unlike most TV judges who rip contestants to shreds, Project Runway judge Nina Garcia has a reputation for giving contestants constructive criticism and design advice that actually helps them become better designers. Garcia, who has held the post of Fashion Director at top magazines like Elle and Marie Claire, knows a great deal about the fashion industry and that comes off on the show.
