Tyra Banks announced today that the fifth season next spring would be the last for The Tyra Show. She issued a statement on her website saying,
I’ve been loving having fun, coming into your living rooms, bedrooms, hair salons for the past five years.
Tyra will continue to appear on America’s Next Top Model. She also has plans to do some new digital projects, and to start a new film production studio in the future.
Tyra Banks showed off her dripping wet real hair on the premiere of her show yesterday. Apparently it was a big deal.
A stalker who flew from Georgia and LA to NY just to see Tyra Banks at her NYC studio multiple times has just been convicted of stalking, harassment, criminal trespass, and attempted aggravated harassment.
According to reports, Brady Green sent the supermodel flowers, and repeatedly tried to meet up with her at her workplace, before Tyra’s security team flagged him and had him arrested. Brady, who is now facing up to 90 days in prison, will sentenced on June 18. His lawyer reportedly plans to appeal the ruling.
Kim Kardashian has just launched a new contest to find herself a twin (why?). The Queen of the Kims contest is supposedly designed to pit drag queens up against real girls, who will all compete for the chance to receive a phone call from the real Kim, and a prize pack full of make-up, jewelry, and other girly items.
Kim, who is running this contest with Tyra Banks, will personally select the finalists. The winner will be decided by user vote in the near future.

Tyra Banks broke out of her normal every day routine today to deal with stalker crap in NYC. The supermodel took the stand this morning to testify against Brady Green, a man who she claims maliciously followed her across the country.
Brady was recently arrested while trying to attend a taping of the Tyra Banks Show after Tyra claimed that she feared for her safety, as well as that of her family and employees.
At today’s hearing, Tyra told a judge,
They [security] said this person threatened one of my staffers. At that moment that was it. The first thing is there’s this person who’s more than a fan.
My life has changed significantly, even the people who know me. I don’t live that sheltered life. I like to walk around my neighborhood. I run outside. I like to go to the movies by myself, eat meals by myself. My company hired security. When I’m at the movies, in a restaurant, they are there with me.
Brady, who is currently facing charges of stalking, harassment, and criminal trespass, is claiming that he was just a regular fan, accepting Tyra’s online invitation for feedback from her viewers.

Going into the museum of TMI is Rosie O’Donnell’s recent revelation on the Tyra Banks Show that she’s currently receiving menopause advice from Madonna. Rosie tells Tyra,
I am about to be 47 next month and Aunt Flow has not shown up for nine months.
She’s [Madonna] great, she’s a lot like a big sister. When I started having my hormone things, I’m like, ‘What the hell is going on?’ she’s like, ‘Get the cream.
Rosie then goes into vivid detail about her hot flashes. She continues,
It started for me at 41…I would be in the bed, and I would wake up and the sheets would be soaking wet — not damp — soaking wet.
I’m not really sure what’s grosser, the thought of Rosie sweating that much in bed, or the thought of Madonna sweating just as much all over a naked Jesus Luz. Now I know why Rosie’s variety show was canceled after just one episode.
