America’s Next Top Model

PROOF THAT TYRA BANKS CAN MAKE FASHION MISTAKES

It’s a comeback – Tyra Banks is in New York happily promoting her Sports Illustrated 2019 swimsuit cover – she last appeared on the magazine cover in the late 90’s. Tyra retired from modeling in 2005 to become a TV mogul, hosting the incredibly popular America’s Next Top Model, now in its 18th season. Today she made TV appearances with her magazine wearing THIS. We love the color, but that stiff ridged neckline and puffy top is making her look several sizes larger than she hopefully is. Even models need advice sometimes.

America's Next Top Model Rita Ora Tyra Banks

TYRA BANKS: NOT ALL MODELS HAVE A KNACK FOR FASHION

Tyra Banks may have been a successful model, but she is clearly in need of SOMEONE to help her select her wardrobe. THIS is how she turned up to promote her new project Life-Size 2. Now that she’s returned to her hosting job on the amazingly successful America’s Next Top Model, we can’t help but wonder about her relationship with Rita Ora. In 2016, Tyra left the show and chose Rita to take over her lucrative job as host and judge. Rita must have been VERY excited, but after only ONE season, Tyra abruptly decided to return and Rita was dismissed! What really happened? We may never know… (Rita will probably get a kick out of this photo)

America's Next Top Model Rita Ora Tyra Banks

RITA ORA IS LOOKING FOR ATTENTION

Rita Ora is back to wearing her paparazzi-attracting outfits on the street because she’s out of a job again. Rita was thrilled when producer Tyra Banks decided to take a break after 23 years (!) hosting VH1’s America’s Next Top Model and handed the job to the fashion-addicted UK pop singer. Rita figured hosting the established series might turn out to be a long term gig. No such luck. After one season of blah ratings, Tyra is taking her job BACK. Both women are denying there’s any animosity but we can detect hurt feelings – and Rita’s back to singing…

America's Next Top Model Hair! Tyra Banks

IF TYRA BANKS LIKES HER HAIRCUT – THAT’S ALL THAT MATTERS

America’s Next Top Model has been around forever (actually it’s 12 years) and we confess we ARE going to miss it. CW canceled the show and the finale episode airs December 4. During the final season, host Tyra Banks pulled out all her extensions and cut her hair short. No more extravagant flowing hairdos. She’s been wearing a pixie cut wig since then and NOT everybody likes it. The show got lots of mail from fans complaining about her short hair. Tyra’s co-workers on the show whispered about it and tactfully hinted to Tyra that maybe she should think about a longer style. But Tyra wouldn’t THINK of changing it. She says it makes her feel like a “futuristic businesswoman.” We hear it was the TALK of the final season.

America's Next Top Model Miss J Alexander Tyra Banks

TOP MODELS TYRA BANKS AND MISS J ARE READY FOR ACTION

America’s Next Top Model celebrated the show’s 22nd cycle at Greystone Manor here in Los Angeles. Tyra Banks and Miss J Alexander happily posed for photos together – we suspect they are close friends. Tyra looks very conventional, but the 6’5″ Miss J outdid herself. The wig and long black sheer dress topped off with men’s shoes is a very creative cross-over look. The show was actually a lot less interesting when the eccentric Miss J wasn’t on it.

America's Next Top Model Make up Tyra Banks

TYRA BANKS IS NO LOLLIPOP

SOME models look every bit as good without makeup as they do with it. That doesn’t appear to be the case with Tyra Banks, pictured here dressed casually, leaving a gas station. We never realized what a small head she has! Without extensions or lip gloss she’s still pretty – just not the knockout she is on America’s Next Top Model. Most celebrities have “The Lollipop Syndrome” – large heads and skinny bodies, but Tyra is just the opposite, and she’s still a show business success!

America's Next Top Model Fashion Kanye West Kelly Cutrone Kim Kardashian

OUR HERO KELLY CUTRONE CRUSHES KANYE WEST’S FASHION DELUSIONS

Photo: TheCW

THANK YOU Kelly Cutrone, for putting Kanye West in his place! Apparently we weren’t the only ones appalled when Kanye West declared that he’s as important to fashion as Apple founder Steve Jobs was to technology. Kanye considers himself and his wife Kim Kardashian as the most influential couple in the clothing business. Longtime fashion publicist and American’s Next Top Model judge Cutrone tod the NY Daily News “I think they have no influence in the fashion world whatsoever. “ Kanye and Kim continually promote Givenchy but Kelly points out that most people who watch the Kardashian reality show can’t afford Givenchy. And fashion editors couldn’t care less what Kimye wear. Cutrone does admit that the couple have impacted pop culture – but fashion- no way. (Above, Kelly at left on ANTM)

America's Next Top Model Ego Tyra Banks

IT’S ALL ABOUT TYRA BANKS

Tyra Banks must REALLY be feeling entitled lately, according to her behavior at the opening night of the Broadway show “A Time to Kill.” The Daily News Confidential reported that she arrived at the celebrity laden event in flip flops and no makeup. She tried to slip in a side door to avoid the red carpet altogether but since there WAS no side door she had to rush across the red carpet to the front door. Other celebrities invited to the big event graciously posed for photos and signed autographs while Tyra scooted inside. Has Tyra forgotten that the REASON she is given free tickets to opening nights is because she is EXPECTED to pose for photos and publicize the event? Continue behaving like that and your invitations are likely to dry up!

Adrianne Curry America's Next Top Model Comic-Con

ADRIANNE CURRY IS READY FOR ANY CHALLENGE

Nobody wants to grow up and they don’t have to – at Comic Con. Ever since she won the very first America’s Next Top Model competition, reality star Adrianne Curry, 30, has dressed up like her favorite comic or video character and made a splashy appearance at Comic Con. One year she was asked to leave because her costume was TOO skimpy. This year she and her friend Alicia Marie dressed up super-sexy like Mortal Kombat fighters Mileena and Jade, and they barely made it past the fashion censors.

America's Next Top Model Disneyland Drake John Utendahl Tyra Banks

TYRA BANKS: WHAT SHE DID FOR LOVE

#tyrabanks #drake

Tyra Banks, 38, and rapper Drake, 25, were caught on camera by a sneaky fan at Disneyland where they playfully rode the rollercoaster and ate frozen yogurt together. Tyra split with her wall street mogul boyfriend John Utendahl, 51, in December after nearly four years together. She was SO in love with John that she uprooted her now defunct talk show and moved it to New York to be close to him. Naturally her staffers were distraught. John’s finances took a turn for the worse in 2010, but Tyra prospered with her production company. Now she’s just having some fun.
