Fresh off the heels of her “Natural Hair” revelation, Tyra Banks hit up ABC’s Nightline in an indepth interview with Cynthia McFadden. All was going pretty smooth until Tyra was asked about why Janice Dickenson and Paula Porizkova had such negative things to say about their experiences on the show. Tyra quickly turns to monster mode and jumps on the defensive as her publicist steps in and tells McFadden to move along. She stands her ground and Tyra still doesn’t answer the question but the pressure showed. McFadden also seemed to strike a nerve when she asked Tyra about her relationship and rumored engagement to 50-year-old business mogul John Utendah.
In honor of her self-proclaimed “National Real Hair Day,” Ms. Banks asked the world to drop wigs, weaves and extensions to rock their natural hair. Tyra lead the way by shedding her daily lacefront to reveal a head full of sandy brown locks. Her hair is actually pretty nice! I know my photos suck. No need to even tell me. But I just thought I’d update you guys who missed Tyra’s “Real Hair” show today.
Model turnt Actress turnt television host, Tyra Banks is due in court this week to testify against a Georgia man accused of following and harrassing her from Los Angeles to NYC. Banks, photographed above during the “Broadcasting Reality: Show Me The Money!” Luncheon is scheduled to testify in a Manhattan courtroom where Brady Green goes on trial on charges of stalking her.
Green, a resident of Dublin, Ga., is accused of following Banks from coast to coast since January of last year. He was arrested in a McDonald’s near the Manhattan building where “The Tyra Banks Show” is taped after he attempted to see Tyra on March 18, 2008.
According to the criminal complaint filed against Green, he had been stalking Banks since January of the 2008 and had attempted to contact Banks by appearing at both her Los Angeles and NYC studios, making repeated phone calls and sending multiple letters to her workplace and even having flowers delivered to the runway star. At the time of his arrest, he was found carrying a large duffel bag full of magazine clips of the model, along with notes he had written himself that documented several of his attempts to contact Banks.
Banks told the Manhattan District Attorney’s office she was “in fear of physical injury, serious injury or death” as a result of Green’s actions. Shortly after the incident, she was granted a restraining order against him. Green, 38, has pleaded not guilty to stalking, harassment and criminal trespass and faces up to 90 days in jail if convicted by Manhattan Criminal Court Judge James Burke, who is hearing the case without a jury.

Buffie has created a new MySpace Page that focuses on workouts instead of nekkid pics and also appeared on The Tyra Show a few months ago as Tyra was celebrating BFA’s (”Big Fat Asses”). During her interview, Buffie discussed about how she went to a nutritionist when she felt she was too thin, and she went from 119 to 170. Tyra’s crazy azzz could NOT stop talking bout that girl’s booty. That heffa said “booty” so many times I thought I was gonna scream!! Peep the video:
T.I. is making the rounds on all the talk shows and he made his way to The Tyra Show yesterday. Sitting on stage looking like he smelled soooo good while flossin his shades and bright smile, Tip addressed more of the same ole questions from Tyra Banks, like why do they call you T.I., what does it stand for…etc. He also addressed losing his close friend Philant Johnson and why he decided to purchase weapons.
Tyra kept Tip for 3 segments on the show. In parts two and three of the video, Tip tells Tyra how old he was when he lost his virginity (very very young) and also what age he started rapping. The funniest part of this video was when Tyra asked him was he gonna come back from jail all buffed up like LL Cool J! My eyes are burning at that visual!!
