Tyra Banks is apparently modeling again and we’ve got video proof!

Comments

Remember when Tyra Banks used to be a model? It’s been so long since we’ve seen the TV host/expert smizer actually doing what she became famous for, that we were pretty shocked to see her back in the swing, starring in the Nowness video of the day, entitled Strike the Pose. Filmed by photographer Marcus Gaab for I Love You Magazine, the short film features the former supermodel in an eighties-tastic outfit, complete with a flat-top bouffant and bright-yellow eyeshadow. While we can’t seem to separate Tyra from her over-the-top ways on America’s Next Top Model, it’s nice to see her abilities put to the test once again. So, how do you think she did?

They said/We said: Kelly Cutrone will replace Andre Teon Talley on America’s Next Top Model. Cue the waterworks!

Looks like Tyra’s gaining another female perspective. It was announced this morning that Kelly Cutrone will replace Andre Leon Talley as the fourth America’s Next Top Model judge next season. Known for her intense attitude (and that’s putting it mildly) on The Hills and The City, the founder of now-famed PR firm People’s Revolution will no doubt up the drama ante on the panel.

As for the rumours that a tiff with Banks is the reason for Talley’s departure, he dismissed them, telling Page Six “It’s all good in the neighborhood.” (Oh, okay.)  Although we’re sad to see Talley’s high-fashion credibility go, Cutrone’s blunt and quote-worthy advice is sure to bring some entertaining moments. Cue the waterworks. Read more »

SNP’s word of the day: Modelland

Comments

Word: Modelland

Usage: “Suddenly, Scouts from Modelland were everywhere. An asteroid rocketed to earth, throwing up chunks of marble all around the square and causing nearby runway walkers to flee in hysterics. A stunning Scout emerged from the rubble, with skin that seemed to be made of rough stone.”

They said/We said: A tale of two fashion personalities: The scoop on Tyra’s and Tavi’s adventures in writing

Other than fashion, what do 15-year-old blogger Tavi Gevinson and Tyra Banks have in common? They’re both set to release books in the near future. While book launches are nothing new to the fashion world, the typical material is usually limited to collections of glossy photos or instructive style guides. You may (or may not) be shocked to find out that this isn’t the case with either Tavi’s or Tyra’s upcoming ventures.

Fashion news: ANTM praises tiny waist, Glee fashion and the horrifying images from the cat fashion show

Comments

There’s been plenty of unfavourable buzz around the 15th installment of America’s Next Top Model. The season trailer features a 6’2″ model with a waist that Miss J can put his hands around. “There’s something about her that I like!” shrieks Tyra, the same who once delivered that now-golden line, “kiss my fat ass.” [Fashionista]

According to his ex-wife, JetBlue ex-flight attendant gone cult hero Steven Slater would “love his own fashion line.” Maybe cursing the plane over the speaker, stealing two beers and storming off the aircraft via inflatable slide will be the best thing that ever happened to him.
