Top Model Drama?

All isn't well in America's Next Top Model land!

OK! magazine reports that Banks isn’t getting along with photo shoot creative director Jay Manuel, and her days on the show could be numbered.

“It’s gotten so bad that Tyra and Jay aren’t speaking,” an insider told OK! magazine. The selective silent treatment isn’t limited to Manuel, either. “Tyra barely interacts with the contestants and only wants to show up on judging day,” the source told the magazine.

Net result? Banks (who wouldn’t comment on the rumors) might be looking for a new supermodel to helm ANTM. “She’s really throwing all her weight behind her talk show,” according to a source familiar with “The Tyra Banks Show.” “She’s putting lots of pressure on her staff to keep her show on the map. She had Barack Obama on, she had Hilary Clinton on — she got a taste of playing with the big boys and now ‘Top Model’ seems to detract from her big plans.”

I don't know.. it could just be a ploy to get media attention so she'd have SOMETHING to talk about on that stupid talk show of hers.

Another Pairing

Tyra Banks and Ashton Kutcher are reportedly collaborating on an unscripted beauty competition for ABC. Details are very hush hush but we will give more information as we hear it!

GROSS ALERT!

Former New York "It" boy and Paper magazine blogger Fabian Basabe writes on his blog today that the supermodel turned TV personality, um, soiled herself at Fashion Week. Basabe was filming an interview in the W suite at the tents, and suddenly a whole cadre of people barged in and kicked him out. The reason? Tyra needed to change her clothes. Because of the incident. Apparently they had a spare change of clothes all lined up which makes him wonder if it's happened before. Obviously we have no real confirmation on this. I'm not really sure if Tyra Banks pooping herself is newsworthy, but maybe Basabe's continued usage of the icky term "messed herself" is?

Maybe miss Tyra is popping laxatives as a means of weight loss.. not that she'd EVER admit it!

Tranny Fest

The Baby Phat Fall 2008 show was a trannyfest with the exception of Christina Milian. Viviva A. Fox, Tyra Banks and Joss Stone all looked like they belonged on a corner somewhere. Poor Kimora, no designer want that kind of crowd at their show.
