I just wanted to share with you love muffins a few behind the scenes pictures from my AMAZING appearance on The Tyra Banks Show – I had such a splendiferously divine time with Tyra who told me before the start of the show that “she loves herself some B. Scott!” I would like to thank everyone on her super duper friendly staff who were all so nice to me. Also, I would like to thank my team who helped me make this dream come true! What God has for me, it is for me! Once I get the air date for this particular episode, you, my dear love muffins, will be the first to know! Team Tyra Banks forever!

Demi Moore and TV personality, Tyra Banks, attended the PEOPLE-TIME-FORTUNE-CNN White House Correspondent’s dinner cocktail party Saturday night in Washington, DC. I see you, Ashton Kutcher! Eva Longoria plus many more attended the event as well.

Recently, Tyra Banks made a plea on national television to get Julia Roberts to come on as a guest:

“I would love Julia Roberts to come on the talk show. I’m obsessed… She’s just real and from Savannah, Georgia and super famous and still normal and I like that…Julia, I love you so much and I wish I could smile like you… I even had a red weave trying to look like her one time.” Contact Music

In what promises to be one of the randomest combos of the year, Clay Aiken joins Miss Tyra Banks as an acting coach on tonight’s episode of ANTM (8pm EST on the CW).

Still riding high off of his successful Broadway run with Spamalot, Aiken says, “It was kind of neat to be able to talk to some kids who were going through something similar to what I had been through so many years ago on Idol,” in what he refers to as “reality-show stress.”

“I was on the other side of the table for once,” he continues, “which was a surreal experience for me.”

Clay and Tyra clicked when they first met, and try to stay in contact whenever they’re both in the same town. He believes she’s a real, down-to-earth person – something her talk show has allowed the world to really glimpse.

Will you love muffins be watching tonight?

The extraordinary Tyra Banks was all smiles while she received her Excellence in Media Award at the 20th Annual GLAAD Media Awards at the Marriott Marquis Saturday night in NYC. Can we talk about how amazing she looks in all black? I love her with the softer with that flawless makeup and hair. Sigh. Ugly Betty diva Vanessa L. Williams attended the event as well looking better and better with age.

Love muffins, did you catch tonight’s America’s Next Top Model? Here’s my little recap of the episode.

First stop on the ANTM train: Miss J’s Charm School. The girls change into preppy khaki pants, sweater sets and pearls. Miss J instructs the girls how to walk and critiques them in his hilarious, over-the-top, and playfully strict way. Bianca and Chantelle from Cycle 11 are brought back to help the girls with their walks and teach them about “model respect.”

During a game of truth of dare, Natalie reveals she thought Thalia had the worst picture at last week’s panel, causing the newly-blonde Thalia to have a bit of a breakdown, and call her sister for a breath of confidence.

The first challenge is walking for designer, Jill Stuart, wearing her spring runway collection. The catch is that the girls will be walking with a bunch of large, awkward shopping bags, putting to use the runway etiquette taught to them by Miss J at “school.” Miss J brings out Ann Shoket, editor in chief of Seventeen Magazine, to watch the show, adding some additional pressure to the young model hopefuls.

Cocky Natalie decides to add an unrehearsed spin into her runway walk, not pleasing Miss J. In the review, Natalie’s walk was praised, but the twirl was not. Adding to the already dismal Tahlia’s self-pity, her walk was described as weak. Challenger winner’s prize is some pieces of Stuart’s collection: Natalie.

Three people were arrested Saturday after craziness broke out at an America’s Next Top Model audition at the Park Central New York Hotel in New York City. Six people were injured, with two of them needing treatment at a hospital.

The drama began when model hopefuls, sleeping in the line over night, got irritated at girls cutting the queue. The frustration worsened when they found out that if they left the line, they’d have to start all over, causing some model candidates to urinate in cups. As the hours crept by, girls were being compressed into each other, causing some of them to have difficulty breathing. Two people that had been taunting each other for hours started to really fight, calling attention to police who broke up the disagreement. One threatened to return with a gun.

The last straw was when a BMW showed up with smoke pouring out, causing someone in the crowd to yell, “Bomb!”, sending the hundreds of hopefuls running and breaking down barricades. Watch the crazy footage below.

Needless to say, the audition was shut down after the incident.

Note: The show is currently in Cycle 12 – you can see the review from last week’s episode here.

Love muffins, did you happen to catch Wednesday night’s episode of America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 12? It was the legendary “makeover” episode, and boy did Tyra beat their hair and makeup. After one breakdown and a walk out by legendary Bergdof Goodman hair guru, John Barrett, over contestant Natalie’s refusal to cut her hair, the girls had their first challenge. The challenge was to pick some unsuspecting girl off the street and introduce her to “Cover Girl Eyelights Mascara” inside a faux Cover Girl Walmart setting, and really sell the Cover Girl line. The winners’ prize was a Cover Girl photo shoot to be featured in Walmart.

Next up was the famous photo shoot with sexy British judge, Nigel Barker. The girls had to not only pose, but to adjust their own lighting on the rocker-themed set. Judges this week at panel were Nigel Barker, Miss J, Paulina Porizkova, Nole Marin (he’s back!) and Tyra. In the end, the girl with the Latin flava, Jessica, was eliminated. This was actually a bit of a shock to me because I thought she was pretty, with beautiful skin.

Thoughts? Did any of you love muffins watch the episode?

Note: Next week is Miss J’s Charm School – this is going to be hilarious! You can check out model interviews, past episodes, and photos on the CW website.

Love muffins, are you as excited as I am for the season premiere tonight of America’s Next Top Model Cycle 12 at 8pm EST?

Check out the CW’s website for cast interviews, model profiles and more.

“I want you to tell them to kiss your dimple-y, flat, juicy, bootylicious, skinny, jiggly, saggy, fat a$$!”

Tyra did that! Yes ma’am! She said that during her acceptance speech at the 35th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards last week in Hollywood, California. That is what I am talking about. People talked about her because she gained a few pounds and it backfired on them, but guess what – she won an Emmy for her talk show, the Tyra Banks Show! Thoughts?

Her brand, like her trademark ‘tough but still smiling’ smile, is consistent in all her shows: serious about the frivolous; empathetic and empowering; and always, always aimed at young women, across all races. It’s girly TV with a punch.

I can see Tyra being at the top with Martha and Oprah. Do you think she has what it takes?

Ryan Seacrest, Howie Mandel, and Tyra Banks are potential nominees for “outstanding host for a reality or reality-competition program”. This new Emmy category will debut this September at the annual awards ceremony. Other potential nominees are hosts’ Jeff Foxworthy (Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader?), and Ty Pennington (Extreme Makeover Home Edition).

Well, I’m not sure if Tyra Banks said that, however she did recently celebrate the 500th episode of her popular daytime talk show so it seems that she’s well on her way. Sunday, during the taping of this special epidode, Tyra kept it “fierce” by taking the camera-crew and even her audience to Union Square right in the heart of New York City. Mama Tyra was sure to bring along her ANTM children Saleshia & Jaseline. Check them out in the back flashing their CoverGirl smiles!!! I’m proud of you Ms. Banks.

…at least that is what OK! Magazine (via MSNBC) is reporting! They say Tyra is apparently over the reality show and wants to focus on her talk show. They are also reporting that she is not getting along with Jay Manuel.

A source said, “It’s gotten so bad that Tyra and Jay aren’t speaking. Tyra barely interacts with the contestants and only wants to show up on judging day.”

Tyra wouldn’t comment on the rumors, but a source said she might be looking for a new supermodel to take her place on the reality show. Love Muffins, who should they get to replace Tyra or should they just cancel the show all together?! Please let me know!

The beautiful Tyra Banks is gracing the cover of Entertainment Weekly and might I add that she looks divine!

Banks considers herself more akin to Martha Stewart and Donald Trump. To that end, her latest development is Bankable Enterprises, created to move the mini-mogul into arenas like real estate…

”There’s a fear I have with success in the business world,” she admits. ”People have this image of women, especially in business — that they have to be ballbusters, and that’s so not what I am.” That said, the woman whose company logo features a shiny bank vault is not going to stop growing her media empire. ”I’m not afraid of wanting money at all,” she says. ”Money will give me more power to do things that are truer to my spirit than what I’m already doing.” Still, she adds, ”I don’t think I’ll always be on television. I don’t know whether it’s 10 or 20 years, but I know it won’t be when I’m 60.”

So who is excited about the upcoming season of Cycle 10 on America’s Next Top Model? Don’t forget it premieres Wednesday, Feb. 20 at 8/7c.

Check out Mistress Tyra Banks ruling over the America’s Next Top Model (Cycle 10) girls with the help of Mr. and Miss J, Nigel Barker, and new judge Paulina Porizkova! The above picture of Tyra has to be one of the most fierce pictures I have ever seen in my life! CLICK HERE to see all the new ANTM: Cycle 10 models!

Tyra Banks covers the pages of the February issue of Essence and is looking very Splendiferous. Just in time for the Valentine’s issue, she’s talking about how her life feels unfulfilled since she’s not a mother and not a wife.

“I’d go to work and women would be crying in my arms on the talk show. But then I’d go home and put my key in my door and … nothing: no friends, no husband, no children. I feel so full when I’m at work but so empty when I come home.”

Lord, Tyra sounds a little depressed (sending good energy her way). Love muffins, why is it Tyra can’t find a man?!

Are babies the new Hollywood must-have accessory?

Supermodel and talk show host Tyra Banks, 34, has announced that she wants to adopt a child in the near future.

Banks says, “I’ve wanted to adopt since I was nine. I have a connection with children, and they don’t have to come from my womb for me to have that connection.”

What kind of mother do you think Tyra Banks would be? Thoughts?

…Saleisha! Sadly, this season had the lowest ratings in the shows history! Love muffins, is it time for Tyra Banks to pull the plug on this show or at least slow down the constant unleashing of new cycles?

Love muffins on The Today Show this morning, Janice Dickinson, always one to state her opinion, weighed in on those much-discussed bikini photos of Jennifer Love Hewitt. The former supermodel told Al Roker that Hewitt “is a healthy, not emaciated woman.” These are unflattering camera angles on her,” she continued. “You want to see someone who’s fat? I’m sorry, Tyra. Tyra Banks is fat. This girl is not fat.”

And when Al Roker came to Banks’ defense by saying he didn’t think anyone would consider her fat , Janice did some backtracking remarking “I’m kidding because I love Miss Banks.” Well I definitely don’t think Tyra Banks is fat, sounds like some hateration to me!

People.com just released their Top 25 Celebrity Quotes of The Year and of course Trya Banks had to take the #1 spot with her dramatic “Kiss my fat ass!” quote!

… you’re doing way too much boo boo! Just like how I do the most sometimes, Tyra Banks who looked absolutely stunning (but a little dark under the eye) took her audience around New York City’s Time Square in double-decker bus on Monday creating a media circus while taping for her successful syndicated talk show.

Tyra Banks was also in attendance at the grand opening weekend of The Cove Atlantis on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. Tyra posed for some beach-side pictures that look very reminiscent of when she 10 years ago made history as the first African-American woman to grace the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.

Does Tyra still have the goods?

She might have been graceful on the runway but Tyra Banks proves that simple tasks like sitting in a chair can be difficult for supermodels. She’s so dramatic but I love her. Most shows would have edited this out but Tyra is letting it all hang out. Check out this hilarious clip!

The stunning Tyra Banks graces the cover of the May issue of Shape Magazine. Tyra has obviously gotten her body back in tip-top form but do you love muffins think she was being honest when she said on The View last week that “the cover wasn’t photoshopped.” I smell a lie! There’s nothing wrong with using a little Photoshop now and then but you don’t have to lie about it Tyra! I know Photoshop when I see it and that’s Photoshop! Case closed!

Tyra Banks was so adorable on last night’s Conan ! On the show Tyra displayed her previously reported breasts fetish by massaging Conan’s man breasts! Hilarious! (B. Scott is so a Tyra Banks fan now! Go Tyra!)

Today on The View, Tyra Banks got grabby with none other than Rosie O’Donnell! (Excuse me while I hurl!) First it was Katharine McPhee and now Rosie! That’s a huge step down in the looks department. Let’s be glad Barbara Walters wasn’t hosting today…There would have been powdered milk all over the stage!

Here she is coping a feel with Katharine McPhee

Here she is feeling on her own. I have to admit she does have great breast… and real ones!

Tyra Banks is excited about __________________ as she heads to dinner at Mr. Chow in Beverly Hills on Thursday.

Kimora and friends showed up last night for her KLS Fall 2007 Collection.

“Attack of the 50 Foot Woman”. Doesn’t Kim Kardashian make Kimora look like an Amazonian giant. Run Kim run!

Bai Ling also showed up to show her support rocking a rather interesting ensemble!

And of course I had to mention one of my Future Baby Daddies Djimon Hounsou who never fails to tickle my fancy!

Tyra Bank is the queen of all ruses! She tried to pull a major fast one on me last night with her troll chick cast on season 8 of ANTM! Surely this is a joke. She needs to pull a P. Diddy and RE-CAST. The show has lost all desire to find a ‘model’. Instead, it’s about finding silly situations and ridiculous ‘drama’. Take this fool, Kathleen, for example:

Is it me or is Kathleen THE biggest imbecile you’ve ever encountered?! If you missed it, take a look at the season’s top 13 girls:

I would say this is the make or break season for the show, but I think it’s already broken!
