Tyra's 9 Most Unhinged Talk Show Moments
Tomorrow will go down in history as the day the Tyra Banks Show died. The former model premiered her talk series five years ago with great aspirations: She wanted to empower young women, develop an honest relationship with her viewers and maybe, in the process, become a media empress like Oprah. And while she did achieve some entertainment success and empowered a misguided youth or two, the Tyra Banks Show will be remembered most for its loopy host and her crazy ideas. Who else would go undercover as a homeless person to score crack, don a fat suit just for the fun of it, or feel up a guest? The answer: No one. So grab your Kleenex and join Movieline as we remember nine of the most bizarre experiments conducted by Tyra.
9. Booty Judging
Tyra sure did have a funny way of empowering women. In this episode, she memorably lined up a few female audience members in skintight pants, pinned numbers to their backs, and then allowed males to judge their derrieres.

You didn't mention today's gem, where Tyty was going on (and on and on) about how she's a champion of the gay community, yet couldn't remember what GLAAD stood for who had given her an award for her work (exposing an unsuspecting public to Miss J and Jay Manuel?)
Sad thing is, I reacted the very same way (at 13) when I discovered the magic of Vaseline.
Best of all, it says "Edward Pattinson" when their names pop up on the screen. Genius.
What exactly IS the 'magic of Vaseline'? Other than a cheap and inefficient sex lube?
Isn't that enough?
VULVA PUPPET!! NO! Must... Use... Dagger of Time... Return to recent past before I witnessed it... Or will never have sex, again...
