Tyra Banks actually ventured out of her house into public without makeup and America’s Next Top Model host looked anything like a fresh-faced model. I think the soon-to-be-out of talk show host is really plain without being glammed up with facial paint. She didn’t even follow the advice she gives to the contestants of ANTM and Smeyes for the paparazzi.
Yesterday on The CW America’s Next Top Model the girls had to walk the runway and avoid getting hit by two swining pendulums. Alexandra like all the models was ready to attempt the challenge, but unlike the other girls she fell short on the challenge not once but twice. First she fell walking down the steps, which left everyone in gasps. Then it looked like things turned around for her as she successfully walked past the pendulums and didn’t get hit, but then as she attempted to walk past then again she got smacked in the a$$ and fell off the runway! Since she only suffered some minor cuts and because she was not eliminated from the competition, I don’t feel as guilty saying I can’t stop watching that video over and over again and laughing my a$$ off!
Tyra Banks is doing an Oprah Winfrey and quitting her talk show at the end of the season this spring!!! The talk show host told People, “I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past 5 years.†and she added what’s next for her, “My next huge steps will allow me to reach more women and young girls to help us all feel as fierce as we truly are.†Tyra told them she wants to spend more time with her newly established film production company and their focus will be to bring more positive images of women on the big screen. Something she said Tyler Perry and Oprah Winfrey encouraged her to do. Hopefully they also encouraged her to hire all of the employees of the Tyra Banks Show, who will be out of work because of her decision to end her show, to work for her production company? But then again rumor has it she left a lot of her LA workers behind when she moved to NY.
Personally I never got the Tyra thing, whenever I tuned into her show it was all about her and not the guests. But as much as I don’t like her she has a huge following and I guess am not her target audience for it. It will be interesting to see if she can succeed as a movie producer because her reality show America’s Next Top Model keeps losing viewers by the thousands each season.
BTW as much as I won’t miss the show, I will miss some odd things she did for stunts like dressing as a homeless woman or having every woman on the show strip down to their bra and undies except herself. Will you miss her show when she signs off from it this spring?
UPDATE: Now I am wondering if she decided to quit her show because it would free her up to take over Oprah Winfrey’s time slot when she ends her show next year. Not that I think she would get it, but Tyra seems the type who would think she would be the next Oprah.
Every season The CW’s America’s Next Top Model gets crazier and crazier and that is just Tyra Banks. And tonight she top’s all her zaniness by becoming the superhero Smeyes, which I guess is Smiling Eyes because she always brags that she is good at that. To me she is just Scrazy…Super and Crazy. Seriously what is she thinking when she comes up with this stuff??? Tyra there is a reason you are a model…you can’t act so please stop trying. I am afraid to see what other bizarre things she is going to do on the show tonight at 8p, but I am so going to watch to see it. That and there is a double elimination!!
BTW after ANTM on The CW at 9p is the premiere of The Beautiful Life: TBL. I saw the presentation and I have to admit I really liked it, but since then they changed it up from what I saw and I don’t feel it is fair for me to review that show. As we all know TBL is getting a lot of press because of its star Mischa Barton and that is fine with me because I really liked what I saw and I want to this show to do well.
