They Say Fivehead Is A Phony

Tyra is getting some heavy backlash from her fans. According to Page Six, some former-fans were audience members recently in her Emmy Award-winning talk show. This particular show was celebrating the black models that were recently featured in VOGUE Magazine. The audience was asked to leave the studio and release black balloons which many claimed were bad for the environment. Audience members scoffed at how disorganized the whole ordeal was. They were disgusted by her inconsiderate behavior, and cold demeanor: 


"You could hear her going on and on because she was standing right behind the stage curtain. She’s talking and talking. Meanwhile, you have the entire audience waiting almost two hours for the taping to start." 

 The source continues, "She leaves us waiting, and everyone is sitting there complaining, and then she comes out and doesn’t say a word about it. She didn’t even say hello, she got right into her script.

"She acted so cold towards everyone. She’s a phony," the unnamed attendee told Page Six. 

The star reportedly further upset the disgruntled audience by having them participate in a poorly organized tribute to black models that required the audience to leave the studio and hit the New York City sidewalks.

 "She had the audience prance down the street and then release black balloons. It was so disorganized, people fell over the press outside and almost trampled two little girl," the source claims.
Damn Ty-Ty baby... You got some serious 'xplainin' to do!

Tyra Tries Transsexual For ANTM!

There is clearly a new trend in reality television these days. First, it was Diddy's suspicious reality star "Laverne Cox", and now this? Yesterday I revealed the new line-up of ANTM hopefuls. One in particular (Isis, who is pictured above to the left) is one of the lovely "ladies" that hails from New York. According to a report by Us Magazine, Isis is a trans-gendered contestant who was born a male. When asked Isis had the following to say: 


Isis, 22, told Us magazine she is "a woman born physically male."

"My cards were dealt differently," said Isis, who works as a program assistant at a nonprofit organization.

As for being a role model, she said, "I like to help people, but I'm here to follow my dreams."


Hmmmm, interesting. I wonder if anyone out there in web-land has an opinion on this new trend. Is this the wave of the future, or  merely a cheap shot at ratings?

According to MTO, Tyra Banks was spotted at an upscale law firm in New York three weeks ago to draft a detailed pre-nuptial agreement. She has been dating her rich, investment-banker beau John Utendahl, 50, for two years.  According to the site, the source was an employee and had spotted Tyra coming into the office for the meeting. After weeks of speculation and snooping, documents were found. Sorry fellas, this ship just might be sailing!

Tyra Banks Is The New Oprah


...Well, at least according to The new York Times she is. I thought this article was so appropriate considering the mess about Buckeey that's posted below. Young minority women can still stand up and make us proud, and not have to show all their goods in the process to do so. According to Perez Hilton, Oprah is on a steep on steady decline. However, it seems as though Tyra is right behind her ready to pick up the pieces. This piece in NYT magazine outlines Tyra, her brand and her many achievements. Hate her, or love her, homegirl is definitely doing her thing in the entertainment business and I'm glad to see that she is more than just a pretty face... Go girl!
