TYRA Banks' diva behavior has reached ridiculous new heights.
The model/talk-show hostess kept her "Tyra Banks Show" audience waiting for nearly two hours at her West 26th Street studio Tuesday during a taping of "Celebrating Black Models, Past, Present and Future," while she stood backstage giggling, snacking and chatting with the crew.
"You could hear her going on and on because she was standing right behind the stage curtain," said one audience member. "She's talking and talking. Meanwhile, you have the entire audience waiting almost two hours for the taping to start." And our spy said when Banks finally did take her seat onstage, she had a bad attitude.
"She leaves us waiting, and everyone is sitting there complaining, and then she comes out and doesn't say a word about it. She didn't even say hello, she got right into her script," said our source. "She acted so cold towards everyone. She's a phony."
Another audience member told Page Six the crowd was full of aspiring models who were dragged into the street by Banks for a shoot after she'd interviewed Beverly Johnson, Veronica Webb, Chanel Iman and Tameka Jacobs.
All along, "Tyra kept saying, 'When I was a model,' and would hardly let them talk," said our spy. "It was all about her, as usual."
Banks then led the whole audience outside onto the street for the show's ending. "Cops had it closed off, and Tyra had bodyguards," laughed our spy. "She had the audience prance down the street and then release black balloons. Some were whining that it was so bad for the environment.
"It was so disorganized, people fell over the press outside and almost trampled two little girls. Tyra was acting like it was a live sporting event instead of the most self-indulgent, narcissistic crap." Show reps did not return calls.

</STRONG>lord I cannot stand her.

I read this at one of those celeb sites. Lately there have been a LOT of stories coming out about Tyra. That actually disappoints me because I do like her. Not just because she is good friends with Clay and loves him and says wonderful things about him (thought that is a plus in her column) but I always thought she seemed very real and down to earth. She was very forthcoming about her body flaws and showing her real self on Oprah so that young girls would see that all that "perfection" was airbrushing etc. I admired her for that. She has done a lot of things to help young girls with eating disorders etc. I also loved her wit and sense of humor. It is really sad to read that it appears she has turned into quite the diva. Perhaps some of these stories are untrue - like so many about Clay are.

I just read this news. I wish her happiness and good health. It must be devastating to make this decision or just to be faced with this.

I like her , she is very cute. I wish her all the best.

About Tyra I just cannot abide her . If I hear her even talk I have to turn off the TV. She is most annoying to me right after Kellly Ripa, the most annoying human on the planet.

I couldn't agree with you more about Ripa!! I couldn't stand her even before she treated Clay like a piece of crap on her pathetic show - no offense Regis.

Oh wait I forgot TomKat is the first most annoying. Then Kelly Ripa.
But Tom Crusie IS abslolutely hysterical in Tropic Thunder. I will give him that. But he is just playing a variartin on his psycho self.

FWIW, the Tyra story was on Page Six which for some reason is always very negative about her.

I remember Ann Jillian had a double mastectomy back in the 1980's.

I saw that show, and she was pathetic.

Add me to the list that finds K. Ripa extremely annoying. My mom used to like that show, but quit watching it because she couldn't take Ripa.

Tom Cruise's off screen actions and beliefs are too off the chart for me, but I like most of his movies that I have seen. I love Top Gun and Risky Business; they are practically classics. Razz

If he wants to act like a weird mad man in his personal life....his problem!

I don't really care that he is wacky, but he should have left Brook Shields out of it. He has no right to say what is right for another person's health. I think that took things too far. Also, he was so freaking rude to Matt.

Maybe Clay can give Ricky some parenting tips! Laughing

Quote:

Ricky Martin's a dad!

The Latin superstar, 36, welcomed twin boys via a surrogate mother a few weeks ago, his rep tells the Associated Press.

"The children, delivered via gestational surrogacy, are healthy and already under Ricky's full-time care," the statement read.

"Ricky is elated to begin this new chapter in his life as a parent and will be spending the remainder of the year out of the public spotlight in order to spend time with his children.

No further details were released.

Over the years, Martin has refused to confirm or deny rumors that he's gay.

"I think that sexuality is something that each individual should deal with in their own way," he told Barbara Walters in 2005. "And that's all I have to say about that."

That's a nice article about Ricky Martin. He's been an advocate for children and I'm sure he will be a wonderful father. It sounds like his sons were born around the same time as Clay's son. Parker is almost 2 weeks old! I'll bet Clay was hoping for twins since he publicly stated a three or four years ago that it's what he wanted.

Oh twins would have been so cool! They are all the rage in Hollywood right now too! Razz

When I was pregnant with Eric for some reason after a tummy check and listening to the heartbeat the doctor thought I was carrying twins! That was a Friday and he scheduled an ultra-sound for Monday afternoon. Rob and I spent the whole weekend discussing the pros and cons of twins. I have to say that when the ultra-sound proved I wasn't carrying twins I was a wee bit disappointed. I spent the weekend thinking about how great it would be if we had a boy and a girl! But, it all turned out just the way it was suppose to and we were thrilled with the birth of our perfect little boy. No false alarms with Justin.

I bet Ricky will be a great dad. I hope he has someone special to share his boys with.

Why is it the first thing that went through my mind was PR for "Californication" ???

Well, a lot of people think he announced this because something nasty about him is about to break. Sadly, I am reading he is known to be quite the cheater. That makes me sad because I just love his wife and I hate to think he has treated her so badly.

Well, best of luck to them, but honestly if this IS true - than he should quit that show because from the little I've seen it's pretty naughty. I saw I scene that felt like I was watching porn. Not my thing at all.
