Questionable Choices: Tyra Banks’ Lightning Bolt Eyebrow Patch

Lilit Marcus — Fri, 22 Jul 2011 16:22:19 +0000

You guys, I think Tyra Banks just now found out about Harry Potter and is trying to get in on the trend at the last possible second. I mean, the tie, the lightning bolt eyepatch scar sparkle thing … it all fits. And she has been so busy being a Serious Business Lady over at Harvard and only taking brief study breaks for Businesswomen’s Specials at the diner – how was she supposed to find time for a bunch of silly kids’ books? I mean, she’s a mogul, not a muggle.

Tyra Banks on Set of Gossip Girl

Erin Balser — Fri, 07 Aug 2009 20:32:43 +0000

Tyra Banks filmed her guest appearance on Gossip Girl in New York city this week. The wardrobe department decked her out in ’20s inspired finger waves and dramatic make-up. I think Tyra looks amazing!

Tyra tweeted about being on set, writing:

on gossip girl set yesterday,the paparrazzi were twippin’ and chasin me down the street bumpin n2 innocent pedestrians. yikes!

Tyra will be playing a movie star diva who co-starred in a film with Hilary Duff’s character. She’ll appear in one episode, supposedly the fourth episode of the season. According to the Daily Mail, her character’s name is Ursula Nyquist and Serena Van Der Woodsen somehoe secures the job of keeping Tyra’s character happy for the premiere of the movie. I find that name to be a bit over the top, but with Gossip Girl and Tyra, you never know!

Tyra Banks Shoots Promos for The Tyra Banks Show

Erin Balser — Wed, 05 Aug 2009 20:43:22 +0000

Tyra Banks was seen in downtown New York City last week, shooting promo pieces and a photo shoot for The Tyra Banks Show. I’m not entirely sure what the premise of the shoot is, but Tyra looks like she’s having fun.

She did shots with a green picture frame and wore two different outfits, a blue jumpsuit and an orange dress. I wonder if the green in the photo will be used as a green screen. That might be cool.

I wish I was home during the day to watch Tyra’s talk show. She’s crazy and the show is crazy, but it’s great guilty pleasure television. Does anyone watch her talk show? What do you think?

Tyra Banks & Teyona Anderson at the CW Upfronts

Erin Balser — Fri, 22 May 2009 02:54:17 +0000

The CW UpFronts took place earlier today in New York City. The UpFronts are when networks announce their upcoming fall line-up. America’s Next Top Model will return to Wednesdays at 8pm and is being paired with the new drama A Beautiful Life. A Beautiful Life should be a great match for ANTM, as it’s a fictional show about models living in New York City. It stars The OC alum Mischa Barton, supermodel Elle MacPherson and Sara Paxton. If you recall, it’s the show Analeigh Tipton from Cycle 11 was nearly signed for.

I must say, I love Tyra’s new hair color. It’s one of the best looks she’s had in a long time. And Teyona looks really cute.

Are you going to tune in for Cycle 13 of America’s Next Top Model? And are you excited to see A Beautiful Life?

Tyra Banks & Paulina Porizkova at the Costume Institute Gala

Erin Balser — Wed, 06 May 2009 00:28:04 +0000

America’s Next Top Model judges Tyra Banks and Paulina Porizkova attended the Costume Institute Gala event last night in New York City. The event celebrated the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s newest exhibit, “The Model as Muse” which looks at the role of models throughout the history of fashion. The exhibit looks stunning, nearly as stunning as the stars who walked the red carpet last night.

Nearly every model of importance from both past and present stepped out last night. Tyra took a risk with a daring hairpiece, do you think it paid off?

Paulina opted for a more casual look in a floaty orange dress. I’m not loving it, but Paulina is working the hell out of it. What do you think?

FabSugar put together a great slideshow showcasing all the models who attended last night. It’s beautiful and you can check it out here.

The first round of the GLAAD Media Awards were celebrated last night at the Marriott Marquis Hotel’s Grand Ballroom in New York. The GLAAD Media Awards honor those in the media that portray fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered community.

The award was presented by her close friend and soon-to-be Top Model guest judge, Clay Aiken.

Tyra wore a classy, understated pant suit to the event. I think it’s one of her best red carpet looks yet, she looks amazing!

Suze Orman was the other major honoree of the night. She was presented with the Vito Russo Award, which annually honors an openly LGBT person in the media who have actively advocated for LGBT issues.

Tyra Banks Goes Incognito

Erin Balser — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 23:50:54 +0000

Tyra Banks was spotted at the LAX airport this weekend and did her best to hide from photographers. She was searched in a private room and was allowed to go through security with her high collared coat, hat, and sunglasses on in an effort not to be noticed. Unfortunately for Tyra, she’s a pretty distinctive person and the paparazzi noticed her anyway.

Tyra is definitely off to New York, where she tapes her talk show. I understand her desire to not be bothered by fans and paparazzi (you can’t be in the mood to deal with that every day), but being so blatant at trying to hide you face only further draws attention to herself!

This week on her show, she’ll have Janet Jackson on Tuesday, discuss whether “he’s just not that into you” on Wednesday, find the latest beauty secrets across America on Thursday and set women up on the date of their dreams on Friday.

Tyra Banks to Relive Barack Obama’s Inauguration

Erin Balser — Wed, 28 Jan 2009 23:42:06 +0000

Tyra Banks was one of the nearly one million people who were in Washington, DC on January 20, 2009, to watch the inauguration of the first African American president, Barack Obama. During the ceremony, Tyra sat quietly in the general media area, flanked by two bodyguards, as she listened to Obama’s inspiring speech and the inaugural poem by Elizabeth Alexander.

That night, Tyra got dolled up and attended the Western Inaugural Ball, one of 10 balls held throughout the city that night. Tyra wore a custom-designed Nicole Miller gown with shoed by Giuseppe Zanotti and jewelry by Kara Ross for this special occasion. The Western Inaugural Ball, which was held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, was a happening party, with performances by husband and wife superstars Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony.

Tyra is planning to share this once-in-a-lifetime experience with the viewers of her daytime talk show. On January 29 (that’s tomorrow!), Tyra is going to talk about what it was like to experience history in the making.

Even though I’m Canadian, January 20 felt like a very special and important day. It’s going to be interesting to see what Tyra says about it, so be sure to tune in!

Tyra Banks out with John Utendahl

Erin Balser — Fri, 28 Nov 2008 12:29:18 +0000

Tyra Banks has been dating businessman John Utendahl for quite a while now, but has yet to admit it to the public. However, they’ve been seen out together quite a bit, including last night at the BLT Market in Midtown Manhattan.

The two look quite smitten with each other, walking close together and holding hands. Tyra’s given several interviews in the past about how hard it is for her to find a boyfriend and to keep a healthy, stable, long-term relationship, so I’m glad to see this one is working out.

I think Tyra looks great here, but do you really need a bag that large when you’re on a date?

Tyra Banks with Robert Pattinson

Erin Balser — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 12:44:43 +0000

The stars of Twilight stopped by The Tyra Banks Show last week to talk about their new film and sudden fame. Tyra spent the episode talking in a British accent and even got Robert, who plays Edward the vampire, to bite her neck.

The episode airs November 28, but you can see the biting clip here.

Tyra and Robert also filmed a few scenes on the streets of New York. I’m not exactly sure what they are doing, but they seem to be having a lot of fun. I guess I’ll have to tune in on the 28 to find out.

I haven’t seen Twilight yet, but I want to! Have any of you seen it? What do you think?
