Live Blogging The Tyra Banks Show
April 23, 2008 | Pop Culture
My thoughts on yesterday’s rerun of Tyra’s in-depth discussion of “Sex in Schools”:
11:00 a.m. — Tyra solemnly reveals that the 3 Rs of the American school system have a NEW “R” now: “Racy!” Which really makes me stop and think — Why the hell are “writing” and “arithmetic” considered “R”s?! Now THAT’s worthy of a talk show discussion.
:03 — Gio, 17, shares (with his mother by his side, poor dear) that he — GASP! — received oral sex from a girl in the high school restroom. A horrified Tyra asks “how he felt after.” “Um, fu*king AWESOME!” Gio thinks to himself. But will only say, “I didn’t really think about it.” Yeah, because he was too busy being blinded by the stars in his eyes.
:04 — An audience member steps up to the mic to say two of her high school classmates had oral sex in the classroom in front of everyone while their substitute teacher was sleeping. Sleeping with one eye open, that is.
:08 — Tyra counsels Gio’s distraught mom that her son is a “sexual being” because he has hair on his lip. [TYRA KNOWINGLY POINTS TO HAIR ON LIP] Gio’s mom nods as though Tyra actually makes sense, deserves Emmy for her performance.
:13 — 14-year-old Malorie admits she liked kissing a boy in the school hallway so much, that she went on to sleep with six different guys while she was still 13. Funny, when I kissed a boy at that age, I went on to think, “Ewww! Gross! What’s up with his tongue seizures?!”
:20 –- Tanisha, 18, is a lesbian and wants to tell her sister (who’s backstage) that she’s had sex with three different girls during her time at high school, so that her sister doesn’t hear the “shocking” news from anybody else. Because, you know, hearing it from someone else would be SO much more embarrassing than hearing the news on national television.

I Think Britney and Kirsten Already Beat Them to It

Tyra Banks and half of her studio audience took to the streets of NYC to burn their bras in celebration of the book titled, bOObs: A Guide to Your Girls.
Um, considering my latest Body by Victoria purchase cost $45, I think I’ll just celebrate my “girls” with a glass of wine and handshake. (YES, they have hands — don’t yours?)
