Have you missed me?



Y'all must not know about Tyra. Let me 'plain it to you. Photo by People.com

I'm a slacker. I admit it. Actually, no, I've just been insanely busy these past few days and this poor blog has paid the price for it.
My friend Jump The Snark is dissing my choice of TV shows. (We made a deal, I give "Torchwood" a try and he would give "America's Next Top Model" a try.

Somehow, I've managed to come out ahead on this deal but he's a good sport. And at least he can say he's seen it.

I'm going to have to sic my girlfriends Leslie and Liz on him to remind him of the goodness that is TYRA.

Here's why you should be watching "America's Next Top Model."

1) The models. What other show could take 13 ordinary girls and give them a chance to become a supermodel? There's this show that is a ripoff (a better show but a ripoff nonetheless) on Bravo but it doesn't quite have the Tyra magic.

2) The judges. Here's what you need to know. Miss Jay is a little sexually confused and Mr. Jay is a full-on diva with a bad dye job but they add to the fun of the show.

3) The photoshoots. They make those girls do the craziest things whether it be taking photos with roaches or hundreds of feet up in the air, it's hard out there for models.

4) Tyra. Tyra. Tyra. She's crazy y'all. And I LOVE her.
