I just watched the tyra show....the whole thing.....this is daytime tv?

Actually I enjoyed it.

Should be called "cultural stereotypes". I think Tyra handled the topic really well on her show. There are examples of Oprah screwing it up: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCiqozFWzl0

Russell Peters, the famed Canadian comedian has staked his whole career on this approach.

I thought Tyra looked very sexy.

Free speech nothing - They had no real purpose for the chant, other than to smear the word around. Tyra was the only black girl on the team so why would they be using that chant? (other than ignorance)

She basically says the same thing when she was on the Tyra Banks talk show.

to her credit, she's got a mind of her own -- and, at the very least, managed to catch the eye of director, Steven Soderbergh, in the "crossover" film she made with him a couple years ago.

I can hardly differentiate between Tyra and this guy. ;-)

Oh, and I just happened to watch this video immediately after.

Clearly, she has taken a page from Fry's playbook.;-)

Oh Tyra... you so talentless...

I have seen a dog trained to do this. The dog I saw was trained by telling it to smile and putting cigarettes near it, it hated the smoke and hot end of the cigarette and would drop its lips up. Tyra here might have been conditioned with something undesirable..

'Tyra' is such exploitive, white-trash programming.

God I hate that show. Tyra Banks is a waste of space on the planet. I don't think there is a more talentless and entitled person out there.

The most important question to ask a potential significant other: "Do you watch Tyra Banks?" Easy way to avoid a long term relationship with a fucking moron.

Even Tyra was uncomfortable with that comment.

Any chance he can make Tyra Banks disappear?

Anyone else heard the rumour that the people who appear on Sesame Street are doing so because they were court ordered to community service? Or is it just me...I've always wondered if that was true.


Yes, it's true. Feist, Michael Stipe, Tyra Banks, The Backstreet Boys, Jack Black, James Blunt, Tim Robbins, Noah Wyle, Blair Underwood and about one hundred other celebrities were all only on Sesame Street to honor a court order. I mean, it's a rumor you heard, it MUST be true!
