So much for those future plans.

Tyra Banks and her boyfriend John Utendahl have called it quits after three years of dating.

A source close to TyTy says the smizer is currently "island-hopping, visiting Bali and taking a spiritual retreat" with a friend.

Sounds like a great way to get over a breakup.

America's Next Top Model: All-Stars ended with a dramatic twist last night and viewers are PISSED.

Angelea Preston, Lisa D'Amato and Allison Harvard made the top three, but at the very end Angelea mysteriously disappeared.

The CW later explained:

"After production wrapped on the current cycle of America's Next Top Model, we learned information that made Angelea ineligible and she was subsequently disqualified from the competition. As a result, new scenes were filmed to address this for the audience during the finale."

A lot of people are speculating Angelea originally won, but was stripped of her title after bragging about it on her Facebook page.

But the dramz doesn't end there.

After re-evaluating the other two, Lisa was crowned the winner of Cycle 17 and fans immediately started to flood Tyra Bank's Facebook page saying Allison was robbed, again.

Who do U think should have won???

Janice Dickinson is still beefing with Tyra Banks!

In her latest attack, the world's first supermodel claimed America's Next Top Model is completely rigged and CoverGirl actually chooses the winner.

What? Reality TV is staged!? Get out!

Janice also has a few choice words for Tyra at the end.

See what they are in the clip (above)!

It's a good thing she took some pics!

We're still grieving over our lost camera, but Tyra was kind enough to send us this photo!

Perez had SUCH a lovely dinner last night with Miz Banks and our beloved Nadine Coyle at Red Farm, which was yummy yummy!

We had lots to talk about with these fierce ladies, and Tyra even gave us an advance copy of her new book, Modelland, which we've been reading on our way to do media appearances today and are really enjoying!

It was nice to catch up with Tyra, who really is so inspiring to us! She's going to HARVARD! Such a smarty!

And though we love Nadine and Girls Aloud, we had never met her before! So that was such a special treat!

This week has been so awesome!

We love LOVE love New York!!!!

Uh-oh, someone's in trouble…

Joel McHale has revealed that he's not allowed to make fun of the Kardashians on his show The Soup, which airs on E!, the same station as Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Whoa!! This is terrifying!!

Tyra Banks says she has a "mentally unstable celebrity stalker" and she's so scared of him, she's asked a judge for protection.

She's asked for a restraining order against Marten Williams, Jr., a 6'2", 220 lbs man who has a history of mental illness and even believes "he killed George Bush, Jr. and that Michael Jackson is alive and living in Long Beach."

What's even scarier is that Tyra claims the man has left several "ominous frightening letters and items" at her Beverly Hills home. Some of the items include his prescription medication and an L.A. County jail wristbands.

The delusional stalker is so crazy that he believes that he will get married to Tyra and even left a wedding invitation in her home set for January 8, 2011!!

WTF!!

The man has already been arrested earlier this month for trespassing on Tyra's property and was later placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold. Police say that Tyra's stalker told them that he was bringing Tyra "offerings."

In the documents to the judge, Tyra says she is afraid that his behavior will "likely continue and escalate."

"I am in fear from Mr. Williams for my personal safety, and that of those around me, including my family and employees," Tyra added, and has asked that he stays at least 100 yards away from her and her family.

OMG! So scary!

We hope for Tyra's safety, she gets protection from the judge! This man is crazy and he's likely to do anything to get near her!

You know the drill - talk shows are about two things: medical issues, sex, and sexual medical issues.

On Tyra Banks' show, an epsiode tackeled the shocking topic of teens being "sex addicts" and featured a young, 15-year-old who self-proclaimed herself to be one. Her momma ain't too happy about that.

Beverly McClendon, the mother of this child, filed a complaint in an Atlanta federal court last week, suing Warner Bros. Entertainment, Tyra Banks and executive producers of her talk show for $3 million for featuring her child on television without consent. She alleges that having her child on the show was a dangerous and not gaining her permission to do so was "negligent."

In her suit, Beverly charges that the show put out an open casting call for "sex addicts" on their website and chose her daughter due to her age. She was invited to be a guest in November, was flown out to New York and accommodated in hotel and then, paid for her appearance on the show. All of this, without ever consulting the mother.

The complaint states that Beverly was appalled to see her child on a show that is "undoubtedly watched by sexual deviants, perverts and pedophiles alike." Likewise, she charges that none of what they did was legal, from inviting her on the show to having her appear on TV because they never had her written consent form her or the Commissioner of Labor in Georgia.

Beverly is now asking for an injunction against "further distribution of her child's TV appearance", along with the $3 million dollars.

It's hard to believe that these producers would be so naive to go through with hiring a child without going through the appropriate channels. Seems so unlikely! She has a great case though, if it's true.
