Tyra Gets Her Grove On

Tyra Banks was spotted today sneaking into the Grove, a Los Angeles outdoor shopping center, wearing just a robe. She resembled a prizefighter entering the ring as she leaned on someone while they walked around. If that's not odd enough, what happened once she got into Barnes & Noble was even more bizarre.

After she walked into the popular bookstore, she shed her shy persona and began to dance around in a skimpy black outfit. Shaking her head this way and that, the daytime talk show host let loose for a bevy of cameras.

Maybe Stephen King has a new hardcover coming out and she couldn't contain her literary excitement. Or maybe she was shooting a segment for her show about the wild ways of bookstore employees. Only Tyra knows for sure.

16. Ditto #12. Obviously "Tyra's Run for the Barnes & Noble" doesn't have much of a ring to it, but anyone who lives in LA knows there is no Borders store anywhere in the Grove. Is TMZ bringing in copywriters from Iowa these days?

17. Haha.. I only permalinked to Correct TMZ and it seems just like me people noticed. I was there yesterday, it was wednesday, not today, she was doing clips for her show where she dressed up like different celebrities and danced like a maniac and it was a BARNES AND NOBLE.
I read TMZ everyday, makes me wonder what other little big mistakes have made me think one way or the other about people. Hmmm.
Also, as a witness to the whole spectacle, I thought it was very weird and rude of Tyra to go into a public place, take over parts of it to squirm and dance like a feverish squirrel and then get up scowl at the kids around her and fans while her PEOPLE told folks to move it. They would then throw a towel over Tyras big head and she would walk half naked through the grove as if she didn't want anyone to look at her. Celebrities are so damn weird. Seriously, I walked over to the scene because I saw hair flying, I thought there was a fight... If she doesnt want to be seen or fans to walk up to her and take her picture, she needs to start shooting the vignettes for her crappy show on a security protected stage.

19. Who cares, who cares. Tyra isn't talented enough to have ANY kind of program. She's a wanna be psychologist and a p*** poor one. She needs a better wig too.

21. I wish I had a daytime show. I did the exzact same thing at a bookstore last weekend. Only instead of a bathrobe I had a cardboard box on my head. Unlike Tyra I was asked to leave the store.

This is a double standard. Why is it that just because I dont have a TV show, or forget to wear pants that I am treated like a second class citizen. ?

22. I hate that Tyra is everywhere. It means I could turn a corner and run into her 15 foot forehead, or get caught in her wild bug-eyed stare, or if I run right into her, suffocated by the saggy bags she calls boobs. It's horrifying to know she's out there, roaming the streets in her silk robe. What's worse is she's allowed to talk, maybe America is too free...

23. Just another washed-up, bimpbo, ex-model desperate for attention. In denial that beyond being a member of the lucky sperm club and having a good body, that she has nothing significant to contribute. These despertae model types are showing up everywhere nowadays in reality TV. I blame the fashion industry for letting them speak instead of just standing like the clothes racks they are. Now they all think they've got something to say, and even more delusionally , that anyone cares! Take the 'money for nothing' girls, do the drugs, f*ck the rock stars, and then STFU because WE DON'T CARE...

25. Tyra Banks is in dire need of attention.

26. I really like Tyra but what's up with hiding her face and acting so strange walking to the bookstore. Big deal if the cameras see your face. That was just weird.

27. What the eff? I swear, I wish models would just stick to modeling. Why, oh why, do they all decide to try their hands at being talk show hosts, actresses, brain surgeons and rocket scientists? Listen up people, if you make your living off your looks, please just stick to it and don't put the rest of us through your endless dabblings in other 'careers'. I don' t know how much more I can bear!
