Tyra Banks was spotted leaving a NY courthouse yesterday after testifying against a man charged with stalking her. She told the court how terrified she was the day he tried to get passed security on the Tyra Banks Show studio. Luckily her staff wouldn’t allow her to leave her dressing room.

“‘Stop! No! You can’t leave,’ ” she claimed they said. “I know I have fans, but I’ve never in my entire career had my staff act in this way.”

“I fear for my safety,” she said. “I feel extremely vulnerable.”

She also stated she fears for the safety of her staff and family members. When her stalker, Brady Green, took the stand he tried saying the incident was all a misunderstanding and he’s never threatened or tried to date Tyra. He did admit he had taken a bus ride from LA to NY not knowing anyone in the city and the first place he went after arriving was the building Tyra tapes her show.

Just a little scary!

Tyra Banks revealed she faced challenges to becoming a runway model because of her race and curvy figure. She told New York Times magazine:

“My biggest obstacle was that I was black and curvy,” adding that her agency had a list of “designers who will not book Tyra because of hips and breasts. My mother told me the whole thing as we were walking down the street in Milan. She said, ‘They say you’re too curvy. Let’s go order pizza.’ We walked into a pizzeria, and we discussed a career change.”

Tyra, You Go Girl! Don’t let anyone tell you you’re fat!

A lucky or very unlucky (you decide) Claymate got to meet her American Idol Clay Aiken on Tyra’s 500th episode.

Claire-Aimee Unabia also known as just Claire, a contestant on America’s Top Model which is Tyra Banks’ hit show has just revealed that she drinks her own breast milk! Claire is a 24-year-old woman from New York and admitted to Tyra that she wants to keep her breast milk flowing so she can continue to nurse her daughter after she leaves the show.

So when Tyra inquired if she’s shipping her milk home to her baby which is a common practice by mothers who are separated from their nursing babies, Claire said:

“Right now I’m actually drinking it. It tastes kind of like light soy milk.”

Claire answered the questions via email as the contestants are prohibited from talking directly to the media before elimination from the competition. When asked why she’s drinking her own milk, Claire said that she didn’t feel right just throwing it away.

“I drank my breast milk only during audition week because I did not want to waste it after putting all my effort into making and extracting it. Dumping milk just seems wrong. A mother’s milk is like liquid gold, so I also wanted the nutritional value back and to keep my immunity up.”

Claire added that at one point she was drinking two or three glasses of breast milk a day. And while a mother may benefit marginally from this, the practice is rare according to experts. Dr. Myron Peterson, a pediatrician from Cato Research in Boston who has been in this field for 32 years said:

“I’ve never heard of anything like it. There’s no danger to it, but it’s just kind of strange.”

No really? I thought all breastfeeding women drink their own milk! I bet Heather Mills would appreciate this woman, especially since she’s drinking her own milk rather than milk from cows.

Mary J. Blige shocked fans when she revealed she’s a member of the Mile High Club. She was reportedly candid when she was answering questions on Tyra Banks’ talk show. Blige didn’t hold back when she was asked if she had ever made love on an airplane, she hesitated before answering but revealed:

“Yeah.”

Tyra then asked:

“Was it in the toilet? On a private or commercial jet?”

Blige laughed and said:

“I’m married now, let’s move on.”

How honest of her eh? I’m not surprised she had sex on an airplane, but I am surprised she admitted to doing so. She probably knew this little juicy tidbit would help her pal’s TV show ratings though.

Tyra Banks was quoted as saying Britney Spears should “kill herself” according to some reports. The talk show host was overheard saying Britney should follow in the footsteps of Marilyn Monroe and end her life by taking a drugs overdose. A shocked source said:

“Tyra was saying, really loudly, ‘Britney should just go ahead and kill herself after the album and go out like Marilyn, very grand. She should have done it after the last album.’ It was terrible, nobody could believe she was saying it, let alone saying it without caring who heard!”

A rep for Tyra dismissed the allegations, saying:

“This is absolutely not true.”

I wonder if this was before or after Janice Dickinson called Tyra fat. Maybe Tyra’s just pissed off at the world now and poor Brit-Brit is an easy target.

This weekend in Hollywood, Tyra Banks helped Kimora Lee Simmons celebrate her new fashion line, KLS which is more upscaled than her Baby Phat line. Are they hot or not? I think not at least in these pictures.
