At Least This Is Doing Well
Filed under: TV News > Tyra Banks
We mentioned last week that Tyra's America's Next Top Model bombed this season.
According to the ratings, the two-hour Top Model premiere was down 11% from the February cycle and a hefty 32% less than the September 2007 series premiere.
But, luckily for Tyra, the fourth season debut of The Tyra Banks Show, ranked in as number one with female viewers 18-34 - among all other talk shows!
Finally, some good news for Ms. Banks.
And what does she have next in line for her topics?
She just opened up by stripping down to help women "feel better about themselves by helping them recognize their true beauty."
And on tomorrow's show she's going to talk about why some African American women "take drastic measures to change their skin tone by bleaching their skin to make it lighter."
Is she gonna talk to Michael Jackson???

i love tyra! vote mccain!
This is going to be an interesting season on antm. I like isis, she'll give those other bony bitches a run for their money. Tyra's ratings may be down a bit, but the chick is making mad money.
Hot Trannie Mess!
I bet she wears underwear with a dick hole.
her show stinks. i can't wait until they take it off the air. She should really learn how to model!
it looks like she's sucking it in a lot=\
only in LA do black woman bleach their skin and white women spray tan.
I live in DC, chocolate city, and have only met one girl in college who bleached her skin– she was from LA
I can almost see her va-jay jay.
tyra is definitely smiling with her eyes in that picture.
How in the hell will Tyra 'stripping down' to her skivvies, make the average (non-supermodel) female "feel better about themselves by helping them recognize their true beauty"?
P.T. Barnum was right. There IS one born every minute.
She's such a bitch!
I'd so love to snatch that wig off her head then b slap her with it!
That pic has to be fake… her arm looks dislocated. Miss J would not approve. *snap*
God, that show is so tired. Haha that picture. Way to suck in that fat Tyra.
she looks robotic! i love u andy!
VOTE OBAMA! 08'…. and TYRA's COOL.. "KEEP RAKING IN THOSE $ MILLIONS BABYGIRL"!
This woman is such a self centered bitch. The only thing she loves or cares about is herself and every episode of her show she somehow manages to make about her alone. Can't stand her and hope they cancel all her shows.
I don't get to watch her talk show too often, but every time I turn it on it's something about race/color issues? It's interesting but I feel like it's the same topic recycled!
Re: JERMAINE – hi Jer! xoxoxo lololol Missed ya!
I didn't watch, and I usually do. She is a mogul so I am sure she will figure it out and come out on top.
her dress is terrible.
seriously NASTY.
Glad Tyra is speaking on self-esteem issues to tricks. Love yourselves the way you are. You can still be a Diva!
she looks good. eyes are a little big o.o
There wasn't that much advertising for the recent reason, at least i dont think so. thats probably why it got low ratings.
Re: harrybalsac –
ME TOO
Perez, love you and all but….in a way that offends me what you said about michael jackson.He did NOT bleach his skin.he has a skin dissease called vitiligo.google it.
she does not even look real in this picture…she drives me crazy.
i love ANTM and tyra even if she looks manly sometimes
Bad photo
Why does she always make that stupid face? I like tyra but I wish she wouldn't pose so much for the camera. I'd like to see her with a natural girl next door smile.
I hate this woman I hope she gets by a truck and gets decapitated =)
So much hate and jealousy in here..seek therapy!
the new season started already
dammit i missed
oh well
i live tyra!
Is that real or a wax figure? Sheeeeeesh!
I liked the old Tyra. Back when she was a model. Now she thinks she is Oprah(which she could not be further from) and wants to run the show. I hate watching her on ANTM because she is so infuriating.I am not surprised her ratings slumped.
Re: iLoVeAnDy27 –
do you love my astronomical chin? most people wanna fist me because of it.
BLEH!!! She's sooo ugly and full of herself! She said she doesn't have a boyfriend b/c she's too self-conscious about herself and her lack of hair, and couldn't imagine having a man spend the night and see her without her wigs or extensions in, yet she preaches to women about how they need to "find the beauty" that they possess?? Pleeease! She thinks that every woman is beautiful and scorns the ones with low self-esteem, yet she can't even have a boyfriend due to her "issues". What a hypocritical bitch. And she's racist against white people.
This season of ANTM's ratings will pick back up!!!!
She should've opened it up to people of other cultures so she could interview Margaret Cho about why she bleached her anal
Re: CeeToTheElOh – I'm sorry, but….your #39 comment was ridiculous.
IF Cho bleached her anus (not anal), it was clearly NOT for her benefit (since she cannot look at it…without squatting and hovering over a mirror).
Anal opening bleaching is NOT only for those who prefer anal sex….but, for anyone who prefers 'doggie style'. Think about it…it should come to you.
You would really watch a show that would explain why Cho bleaches???
who the eff is watching her stupid show?
I hate that show. It's too gimmicky and she really seems like an idiot. She tries waaaay too hard.
Top Model's series premiere was in 2003. Why do you keep saying Sept. 2007?
Is she gonna talk to Michael Jackson???
_______________
Now that was hilarious!
Well that's the pot calling the kettle Black now isn't it!! Sorry, couldn't help it. Why is a light skinned idiot talking about this.
you know why it bombed? because there was hardly any advertising for it this season. i had no clue the new season was starting.
She looks like a mannequin with a bad wig.
WTF???
"Finally, some good news for Ms. Banks" ??? You're an idiot Perez.
She's so rich she should just quit now and spend money for the rest of her life. WHAT ABOUT SOME GOOD NEWS FOR DAPPER D HUH???????????
damn
damn
damn!!!
excuse me but this is a wax statue
the one that was recently done. That can not be really her. No freeeking way
I actually love Tyra..and both shows…but I NEVER miss the tyra show. And when it comes to America's Next Top Model…i can be sure mtv (or vh1) will play a marathon at the end of the season
what is up with her and everyones god damn inner beauty how about she has a show about people who recognize there ugly and fat and should change… im sick of seeing her parade around with people in thongs and bras who should be in kimonos or padded jackets
This is why I
why the crap would any one bleach their skin? why because it worked out SOOOOO well for Michael Jackson? EW!!!! as for her shows I've never watched the tyra banks show in my life and american's next top model is just weird and pathetic
