Cohen, who appears on the show as a judge, is expected to be one of the breakout stars during the NBC Network's prime time coverage from Torino in February. Banner ads promoting the "Project Runway" episode featuring host Heidi Klum and Cohen were running on NBCOlympics.com.
Bravo, NBC, and NBCOlympics.com are all part of NBCU.
Cohen qualified for the Games on Saturday with a first-place finish at the U.S. Nationals, a fortuitous event for Bravo and NBC. The "Project Runway" episode was filmed last summer, so if Cohen had flopped, ratings for the episode might have followed suit.
