Tyra Banks Might Have Used Janice Dickinson’s Book To Help Her Talk To Teens
But Janice Dickinson Is Using Tyra Banks for Shameless Self-Promotion. Which is Worse?
 

janicetyra.jpgJanice Dickinson is nothing if not an opportunist. Dickinson, who was most recently in the news in conjuction with Tyra Banks after she called her fat on the Today show and then offered a back-handed apology, glimpsed a paparazzi shot of Tyra carrying a dog-eared copy of her book, No Lifeguard on Duty, on her way to give a talk to young girls.

And she’s using my book,” Dickinson fumed. “I mean, the thing looks so worn it’s like she’s been reading it on the toilet. It’s pathetic. Where’s her originality? Does she have no shame?” Dickinson, who’s in talks with NBC for her own chat show, said she’ll invite Banks on to confront her.

Also, she thinks Kevin Federline is gross, mainly because of his stretched-out earlobes. Maybe she’ll invite him onto her never-gonna-happen talk show to discuss plastic surgery options.

Correct me if I am wrong, but didn’t Tyra resurrect Dickinson from the grave with her appearance as a judge on Top Model?

You are not wrong.

She is still irrelevant and to call her a supermodel let alone the first one is absurd.

Exactly Daria, I co-sign fully. It’s not very nice of me to say this but JD is washed up, busted and disgusting. If Tyra is fat in her eyes, I’ll take that because at least Tyra still looks fabulous. Starring in an Orbits–or whatever new-fangled chewing gum brand that is–does not make you a star Janice. Have a seat!

LP & Daria,
Ya better tell it!

Janice is on that BS. I’m mad she’s clowning Tyra about her weight as if Tyra didn’t bring her career back from life support.

I mean, would Janice have those 2 shows on Oxygen if it weren’t for ANTM? The only thing that momentarily kept Janice in the press (read: tabloids) was the paternity suit she filed against Sly Stallone in which DNA testing determined that he wasn’t her BD.

And if Tyra’s fat, then America’s obese cuz she’s smaller than the average woman.

Daria- she was a supermodel in the time of Kim Alexsis,Cheryhl Tigs, Carol Alt, Beverly Johnson, and Jerry Hall.

The one thing I like about models is that you see them but you do not get to know everything about them. There is some mystery there, even if they are living foul. Cokehead Kate and Nasty Naomi even have some mystery around then and dare I say are a bit classier than Janice.
The one thing she does not have is class. She is forever behaving in an overly crude manner. She was pretty before she jacked her face up with the plastic surgery. She has demons that she needs to deal with

Janice is talking about the photo of Tyra with her book with the hope that it makes sales of her book jump.

Chic Noir, the ones that are remembered fondly are Cheryl Tiegs, Carol Alt and sometimes, Beverly Johnson. I think most people know Jerry Hall as Mick Jagger’s ex-wife. I had to google Kim Alexis. She looks familiar. I think she acts too.
I did a wiki search and yes, she is technically a supermodel. Add Christie Brinkley and Iman to the list for that era. There’s also Anna Beyle, Patti Hansen, Margaux Hemingway and Gia Carangi. Have no clue who Anna and Patti are. I am only aware of Gia Carangi because of the movie. Margaux is Hemingway’s granddaughter. Either she committed suicide or her sister did. The living one does a lot of Lifetime movies I think.

Kate and Naomi are WAY classier than Janice. Janice is shameless. Even with Kate’s wonk, she’s still more attractive than Janice.

Daria

Kim Alexis was really big, she had over 500 magazine covers. When she left modeling, Kim become a MOM. She now lives a quiet life for the most part.

You know Daria, some models become well known when they cross over and become commercial (some start out commercial). Others who work primarily in high fashion never really become well known to those outside of the fashion industry.

Commercial Supermodels: Heidi Klum and Adriana Lima

High fashion Supermodels: Anouck Lepere and Karen Elson

Patti was a supermodel back in the day. Patti Hansen is married to one of the rolling stones members. She has two daughters with him. Anna Beyle sounds familiar but I cannot picture her face.

It was Margaux who committed suicide.

It is amazing how women who are so beautiful on the outside can be troubled on the inside. Most women sit around picking themselves apart because they are not perfect, while other women are or as close as one can get and still are not happy.

Maybe beauty is a curse.
