10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: November 20-26
This was the week we finally saw the Twilight wedding dress. We also saw offensive billboards, tween thongs, and Thanksgiving style advice. But also awesome puppies! And Muppets! And Obamas!
PHOTO: Tyra Banks Lands Her First Magazine Cover In Three Years
We would have thought Tyra Banks was too busy attending Harvard Business School and running a burgeoning entertainment empire to actual do what she’s known for doing: modeling. But it turns out we were wrong — next month you can see Banks on the cover of a little known German fashion magazine called I Love You.
America’s Next Top Model Is Getting Its Own Fragrance
Just when you thought that maybe America’s Next Top Model was about to stop being a thing, the licensing geniuses at CBS came up with a way for it to stay alive for at least another year or two. This January, Tyra Banks and company will introduce Dreams Come True, ANTM’s first fragrance.

WATCH: Tyra Banks Raps & Smizes With YouTube Sensation Keenan Cahill
While we’re ever so slightly over Tyra (too much drama for our tastes), our love for 16-year-old YouTube star Keenan Cahill never wanes. Which is why this video featuring the two of them and a pair of actual Smizes is the perfect antidote to this rainy Wednesday.

10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: September 11-17
This week saw the end of the Week of Fashion, and what a successful week it was! We brushed shoulders Beyoncé, and chatted with the likes of Tavi and Carine Roitfeld. We also bore witness to the fact that Lindsey Lohan had a less successful week. Marc Jacobs seems to be headed to Dior, even though he’s demanding a huge paycheck. And Suri Cruise wears lipstick. Deal with it.
WATCH: Tyra Banks Tries Really, Really Hard To Get Conan O’Brien To Smize
Supermodel Tyra Banks has said before that the smize isn’t made, it’s learned. And last night she tried her damnedest to teach late-night TV host Conan O’Brien smile with his eyes.
PHOTOS: Who Was Best Dressed At VH1′s Do Something Awards?
August red carpet events are always kind of strange. It’s a bit of a dead month, which means the guest list averages around a B and the fashions run the gamut from red carpet to bottle service — and last night’s turn out for VH1′s Do Something Awards was no exception.
The First Chapter Of Tyra’s Book Is Even More Absurd Than We Thought
Thanks to the ladies over at Jezebel, we learned the first chapter of Tyra’s debut novel, Modelland, had been posted on Barnes & Noble’s website. We did a read-through and, believe it or not, it’s actually worse than we had imagined.
WATCH: Tyra Banks Reveals Mind-Boggling Plot Of Modelland
Tyra Banks stopped by Good Morning America this morning to chat with Robin Roberts about her new book, life at Harvard Business School, and her hopes for a legacy beyond this lifetime. The segment was hilarious for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to her almost terrifying amount of energy, the absurdist Harry Potter-meets-ANTM plot of her book, and the fact that she was wearing a gold wing-shaped decoration on her face.
WATCH: Tyra Banks And Andre Leon Talley Talk Shapewear
Tyra Banks and Andre Leon Talley‘s “Fa-Fa-Fa-Fashion” videos might be the best thing to happen to the internet since cute cat videos, but only because the two are so hilariously, whackadoodley, insane. This week’s edition focuses on shapewear, that flesh-colored category of undergarments meant to squish all your unsightly lumps and bumps like an expensive and human-sized form of sausage casing.
WATCH: Tyra Banks Bungles Really Simple Math Problem
We think at some point, while Tyra Banks was a teenager modeling in Paris, she might have missed one or two lessons on basic addition and subtraction. Because in her new video on stilettos for Type F, she sort of fudges the numbers when trying to explain that the height of a platform can actually lessen the impact of the height of a heel.
10 Important Things We Learned Last Week: April 3-9
This week Anna Wintour and Karl Lagerfeld made headlines — as did Dov Charney and Lady Gaga. Reality shows were such a thing, Kanye got back in the fashion game, and the royal wedding continued to take over our lives.
WATCH: Tyra And Andre Discuss Fa-Fa-Fashion And The LBD
Tyra Banks and Andre Leon Talley are probably our favorite fashion couple. Watching them is pure entertainment — they talk about nothing and everything all at once and it’s just fa-fa-fa-fun. Really! And their take on the Little Black Dress is bit of a revelation.
Being Tyra’s Neighbor Is Less Fun Than You Think
You know who doesn’t have a normal life? Tyra Banks. The supermodel, television personality and Harvard Business School student couldn’t live in just one luxury condo in New York City, so she paid over $10 million to join four of them together. But the renovations on her upscale pad have taken months longer than expected, and her neighbors say they’re tired of waiting around for all the construction noise to stop.
Tyra Lives In Harvard Dorms, Was Going To Be A Sketch Comedian
Tyra Banks is a busy lady! Not only is she still doing the America’s Next Top Model thing, she just launched her own online magazine called Type F and she’s enrolled in Harvard Business School‘s executive education division’s Owner/President Management program. New York Magazine recently hung out with Tyra, and the resulting profile (and outtakes!) do not disappoint. Enjoy!
