Tyra Banks

Before we get to Jessica Drake lets talk about America's Next Top Model and how awful this season is. First of all I don't know why they eliminated this years villain -- Bianca -- in exchange for the whiney, immature, albino Erin. ANTM is boring without the obligatory crazy tranny-look-alike, and the new My Super Sweet 16 angle they are working with Erin, is just not working for me. Not to mention they eliminated her nemesis Brittany this week, so what the hell are we supposed to watch now? Erin and her breakdowns?

Since we know that Erin is the official producer's pick this year, and that Sundai is pretty much safe being the only black contestant left, it doesn't look very safe for Rae or Laura next week. At least Laura offers some entertainment with her country bumpkin schtick, if she is eliminated it is going to be a chore to finish watching the rest of this season.

Then there was possibly the worst photo shoot in Top Model history this week. Tyra's racially insensitive "hopa" -- I think she called it -- Hawaiian culture mixup, where they basically put the girls in "black face" for a "fashion's world interpretation" of different culture and races. They buried poor Sundai in a large blanket then told her she looked like she was modeling for "Gap Kids," and Brittany posed in an American Indian headdress with a red dot on her forehead. The entire idea was a mess, embarrassing and I thought all the girls looked silly. I could go on and on, but I need to get to Jessica Drake!

Real quick... Here is the song Erin sang on the show, and a very good example of what Top Model is trying to pass off as entertainment this year.

Jessica Drake Talks About Tyra Banks

We recently attended the Exxxotica Convention in NJ and had the pleasure of speaking with Wicked contract girl Jessica Drake. Not only did Drake have enough poise and speaking ability to be an ANTM contestant herself, she was also profiled on The Tyra Bank's Show for a "Day in the Life of a Porn Star" segment. Drake talked to us about what is was like being on the show and meeting Tyra herself. Watch the video after the jump.  read more »

A lot of things happened on America's Next Top Model last night. There was a surprise double elimination, Tyra referred to Lauren Conrad as a fashion designer with a straight face, and for some reason she kept saying Madonna's name.

My favorite thing about ANTM is that they spend an hour pretending that modeling is about much more than it really is, then at elimination time, all they talk about is the contestant's "eyes." However last night, Tyra traded her favorite word "eyes," for "Madonna." She must have said her name at least 5 or 6 times, and I want to know why? Was she taking some kind of shots at Madge? Is she trying to start a feud? Can someone tell me what the hell is going on?

Anyway the producers once again decided to stick with this seasons obligatory "bitchy insane chick" instead of eliminating her -- even though she looks like a tranny. Instead they dumped the chick with the broken foot, which is good, because I was sick of hearing about her fucking foot.

Don't forget that Vampire Diaries is tonight. We should have a recap on our brotha site HorrorYearbook.com. God bless the CW!  read more »

I tried to get into Gossip Girl but I couldn't get past the first few episodes. I quickly got bored of watching the miscommunications between Blake Lively and Penn Badgley. It was like waiting for Tony Danza and Judith Light to hook up on Who's the Boss?. That crap was cute in the 80s, but TV has evolved since then. So I just quit that shit.

I don't know if the the ratings for the show are down, but stunt casting Tyra Banks isn't going to save it. Well not for me anyway! I love me some America's Next Top Model, Tyra making an ass of herself is entertaining. Tyra acting in some scenes with Blake Lively is not.

Anywhoo I got this picture of her on the show from the CW's Twitter! I don't know what episode she makes her appearance on, so don't ask... Just look at the picture, nod, and smile!

One of Tyra Banks' "yes people" should grow a pair, and do her a favor by letting her know that no one takes her seriously. She is a SNL skit that writes itself and unfortunately she is not in on the joke. Tyra is the crack head's (worst than the "poor man's") Oprah that only ex-Kate Gosselin fans take seriously. This is the woman who replaced Jerry Springer as Talk Soups favorite "Clip of the Week," because making fun of her is just way too easy and too hard to pass up.

Last night on Nightline Cynthia McFadden cut through the Tyra poop and asked her flat out why she is a diva bitch on her television show America's Next Top Model. Unfortunately she did not ask her if she knew, that half of us only watch the show to make fun of her, and to be disgusted by Miss J... Well that is why I watch it.. Watch Tyra's spokesbitch try to save her, and watch TyTy squirm in her seat then mention her cramps -- because that is all she really knows how to do. Pretty great stuff!

Levi Johnston told Tyra Banks that he was pretty sure Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin knew that he was putting his knick knack in her daughter's patty whack because "Mothers are smart." but I have to disagree. Thousands of stay at home mothers can't be too smart since they continue to watch The Tyra Banks show each week.

Below is a clip of the show from MSNBC where Banks asks Levi if he was sure that Palin knew the two kids were having sex, when he replies that he was pretty sure she follows up with; How to cha you pretty sure she do?" Of course since it seems that Levi speaks the human language he had no idea how to respond and just said, "Mothers are pretty smart."

When will Tyra realize she has become the queen of the Soup's Clip of the Week, a crown she wrestled away from the Jerry Springer Show! I shouldn't have to point out that Jerry's show was supposed to be joke, so when will someone close to Tyra let her know, unlike Jerry, she is the punch-line and not the guests.

Tyra gibberish at the :20 mark.  read more »

OK magazine reports that things have got so bad between Tyra Banks and creative director Jay Manuel on America's Next Top Model that they "aren’t speaking."

A source also told the magazine that, "Tyra barely interacts with the contestants and only wants to show up on judging day."

So is this the last season for Tyra? Rumor is that Banks herself is looking for a replacement, while concentrating more on her talk show.  read more »

Dlisted is reporting that Tyra Banks has a stalker. You mean other than all those screaming model wannabes and trannies who always seem to follow her around?

His name is Brady Green and he has been sending her letters, and waiting outside the studio where her talk show is taped. He allegedly carries a bag full of Tyra magazine clippings. Sounds like the interior of the Top Model house. While skulking around the studio recently he was caught  read more »
