I don't know how I even came across this, but holy shit, you have to believe me when I say that Tyra Banks IS A BATSHIT CRAZY PSYCHO BITCH.

Oh yeah, way to motivate that girl, Tyra. Screaming at her and demeaning her for her good-natured, good-sportswoman-like resignation to losing your stupid fucking contest is totally the way to reform her "defeatist" attitude.

I've said it before, at great length, to captive audiences who squirmed mightily as I ranted and raved: Tyra Banks is a cocksucker. Her brand is supposedly about empowerment; what she's actually selling is "Listen to Tyra or Tyra will not listen to you. Support what Tyra says, or get the fuck out." She's a fucking diva who thinks that her ability to exploit our interest in women's bodies means she is some goddamned marketing genius. And I'm not at all exaggerating when I say she's DANGEROUSLY UNSTABLE. Holy fuck, welcome to Crazyville, population Tyra Banks.

The sad part to me is that she would only ever be looked at askance for this sort of thing. Her perverted "exposes" on her talk show? Totally get a pass.

I just like to update people every so often. With proof. I mean, on a given day, I'm usually crossing myself against a possible run-in with Tyra Banks, but there's absolutely a credible threat there!

I have seen two segments of her talk show. Each left me speechless with horror. She isn't concerned for anyone; she's a concern troll, who only pretends to care so she can then scream about how your behavior is evil and shame you for not living up to the TYRA way. Telling people that you can be beautiful without makeup, if you're overweight, etc. etc. is so easy if you're hardly ever caught without either of those things and have so much money that people have to listen to what you say even if you're a bloated, blotchy, PSYCHO COW.

(I don't mean to harp on fatness either; she could be--and is--model skinny, and I find her hideous. Attitude does shine from within, as she screeched, and hers is telling more than she knows.)

Ugh, if you ever had the misfortune to see the episode of her show where she "helped" girls "avoid" a modeling scam by...running a modeling scam herself and letting them even go as far as stripping naked for a photographer while she shook her head in the other room and then charged in to tell them that they'd been had...


...yeah, I was pretty sure I was going to blow up.

That's pretty much it. I wonder if there's a collection of "true facts about Tyra Banks" a la the Chuck Norris ones, only instead with it being 100% true stories about how batshit she is.

"Tyra Banks jacked my car yesterday while I was idling at a stop light. She said that until I could learn to respect my own physical safety and lock my doors when I drive, I didn't deserve to drive. Thanks, Tyra!"

Ergh what? Jesus H, most people would have decided to medicate this woman by now. Oprah is probably really pissed--"I finally figure out how to walk the line of excitement bordering on ecstasy with some class, and this bitch pisses all over it and then rolls around in that piss!"

About thirty seconds from the end, yes, but I had to stop because the noises were basically tempting me to puncture my own eardrums.

Entirely possible, but you missed the sound of the anti-Christ being raised from the Pit. At least, that's where I'm assuming they got that noise from. No human being could possibly make that sound.

Ok, I just stumbled upon this post...
And am laughing my head off!!!

A bit of background. I worked with Ms. Banks on a number of occasions, both in Bryant Park and Paris and I can say one thing, you people have no idea how ridiculous you are coming across...
Ms. Banks is one of the sanest, most intelligent, hard working models in the business. I saw that clip, and she is 100% right! This is not a "lark" this is not a parlour game! The business is cold, hard, and very very difficult to get into and even harder to stay in and make a success in. And you have a very very short window of opportunity to become a success before you "age out!"
Ms. Banks has been through some of the most incredibly horrible sh*t you can possibly imagine, I personally observed some of it, and she always handled events with class and tact and reasonable-ness that, quite frankly, had I been the target of, would have gone bat-shit ballistic over!
To wit, being thrown out of a show simply because she is Black and Beautiful, because Naomi Campbell wanted to be the ONLY Black woman on that stage at that time. Tyra didn't even bat an eyelash, not one tear!
I asked her later what the hell happened and why she reacted that way, it was so UNFAIR!
This is what she said: "It's BUSINESS, and I never take BUSINESS personally, you can never ever allow yourself to take it personal, and if you start finding yourself doing so, that's your cue to GET OUT; remember that!"
Now we are talking an incredible class act here, the only other one I met in that business who even came close was Cindy Crawford...

and BTW, Tyra got her revenge too (just wait long enough...) when Campbell self-destructed over her addiction to a certain illicit substance, that I refer to as the "Devil's Dandruff," guess who was the only Black model still left standing, ready to fill in on a moments notice... Yep, you guessed it.

Back to the silly TV show, I don't care how you act or how warm and personable you are, it don't mean a thing in that business, really, you have to approach it as a business, career, and job! And if you are not serious about it, you have NO BUSINESS being there and wasting everyone's valuable time!
That's what Ms. Banks was saying, she has little tolerance for those who consider it a fling or "just a gig" and don't work just as hard as she does for what she has.

and

You wonder why so many gorgeous Men and Women never become successful as models???

You're a troll. Go away.

No, first you have to listen to me, because I read your goddamned "I want to lick Tyra Banks" bullshit.

This is my goddamned journal, and it's clear you've never read it before; you're just searching for fights to pick over your pet goddess. This is the first time and this isn't the only evidence I've seen of Tyra Banks being a hydra-headed monster of insecurity, narcissism, and superiority. I'm just posting the newest evidence I've found of its extreme eruptions. You want to see someone with a fucking god complex? Watch her fucking shows. You can't get through one intro on fucking AMNT without Tyra slutting it up and self-congratulating herself over her ability to be better at modeling than a bunch of new kids barely out of high school. There's a word for someone who has to hang out with losers to feel better about him/herself. That word is "Tyra."

I hope you and she are happy in your marriage. I hope the marriage of a toady sycophant and a psychotic hosebeast is legal in the state you live in.

Now go away.

Oh my God. You actually got a random trolling fanbrat of someone you've never even talked about before.

YOU ARE A MAGNET FOR THE CRAZY.

You're free to stop speculating about a stranger any time.

OH WAIT NOW I SEE THE ERROR OF MY WAYS FOR THAT IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN DOING. HOWEVER WILL I THANK YOU?

(A swift kick in the ass sounds like a good way.)

Well and a day, an actual bit of charity from Miss Tyra? Amazing.
