Tattoos Get Guest Bounced From Tyra

tyra banks talking emmy awards 2007

Okay… it’s always interesting to hear about the kinds of things that go on behind the set of television shows – especially talk shows! Here’s something I read from Page Six about a recent altercation backstage at the Tyra show studio:

It was a tense moment behind the scenes at “The Tyra Banks Show” the other day when the supermodel host’s security guards threw out designer Ivy Supersonic minutes before the program taped. “The segment was on hooking up with men, and I came in this beautiful $800 dress, silk with black lace from top to bottom,” Supersonic told Page Six. “But they didn’t want any of my tattoos showing – I have a ‘justice’ tattoo smack across my chest and ones that say ‘Thank you, God,’ ‘Warrior’ and ‘Force of Nature.’ Then they made me take off my jewelry and put on some Kmart T- shirt. They wanted me to say a line, ‘I’m like Samantha from “Sex and the City” ‘ – like I’m the find ‘em, feel ‘em, [bleep] ‘em and forget ‘em type. I mean, what kind of show is this?” Supersonic said she got fed up, ripped the T-shirt off and threw it on the floor, prompting security to toss her out. Banks’ rep did not return calls.

Wow! I hope this isn’t true because on Tyra’s other show, America’s Next Top Model, she’s always talking about being yourself and never compromising to meet someone else’s standards! Oh well – that’s showbiz!

    Over tatoos? Are you kidding me? Especially ones that say, “Thank you, God”? That’s just ridiculous
