Hi Everybody,
I had a ball giving away that bejeweled VASELINE on the show! I really have used it since I was a little girl, and my mom is addicted to it too. I hope you all got my joke when I was acting all crazy. I was acting all high energy and super excited about the VASELINE giveaway because I was spoofing the time Oprah gave away cars on her show a few years ago. In fact, I actually studied that Oprah episode and copied her body movements and phrases she used, exactly like she did them. But a spoof wouldn't be a spoof without a little (or a lot) of exaggeration, so I had to be over the top with it. If you noticed, we put my VASELINE jar on a key chain to push the Oprah car spoof up one extra notch. It was soooooo much fun. I made sure my office called Oprah's office to make sure they knew it was all in fun. I love Oprah, and she has a great sense of humor and I wanted to make sure she knew the spoof was all in love. She's my idol. I actually pay MAJOR homage to Oprah on “America's Next Top Model” this season. It’s coming up so you have to watch “Top Model” to see what I do. It's a lot of love, mixed with a lil’ bit of spoof, done in that campy way we do things on “Top Model.”

Hey everybody!
On Thursday, September 21st, I am doing a show on CELEBRITY DIET SECRETS. From time to time, I have tried to lose weight - just a few pounds because I like my curves. Sometimes it was for the Victoria's Secret Fashion Shows. Actually, when I was losing weight for those shows, I was REALLY trying to lose cellulite. People in the audience would be sitting soooo close to the runway, so I would try to get rid of at least a couple of dimples on the backs of my thighs. Usher was in the audience one year and I was soooooo paranoid that he saw my booty dimples. I also try to shed some pounds after the holidays because I always gain about 10 pounds after Christmas and New Year's.

Hi Y'all,
So the new season of “AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL” cycle 7 starts tomorrow (Wednesday, September 20th)! I can't wait. You'll see some major changes. First of all, the biggest change is that “Top Model” is no longer on UPN. In fact, there is no more UPN at all. That network is now called “The CW.” So you may have a hard time trying to find “Top Model” on Wednesday. It comes on at 8 p.m. (7 central), so make sure to find it.

About five years ago, I went to a NY Knicks basketball game in New York City. I remember sitting courtside and having a big, almost blonde, hair weave on my head. I was sitting next to a young boy, probably about 10 years old, extremely cute with blue eyes and scruffy brown hair. He kept staring and staring at me. Finally, he asked, "Are you Beyoncé? I am so in love with Beyoncé, and I think you are her. Are you? If you are, I would be so excited because I am obsessed with her. I love Destiny's Child and can sing all of their songs." So I’m sitting there in all of my blonde weave glory, and I felt for the boy. Beyoncé was his hero and he was obsessed with her. I couldn't let him down, so I said, "OF COURSE I’M BEYONCÉ!"

Hi y’all,
I've always been into making sure my skin looks just right. I am obsessed with not being ashy. You know what I’m talking about: dry and flaky skin that looks white-ish, usually on the elbows, knees, legs or in that spot on the hands between the thumb and index finger. I always have lotion in my purse to stop ashy-ness in its tracks. If I run out of lotion, I'll use Chapstick, lip gloss, anything to get rid of ash on the spot. Ash is the enemy and must be attacked before it gets out of control. Sometimes on the talk show, my legs are super shiny because I put so much lotion on them; I’m afraid you’ll see the ash on my legs. And sometimes between commercial breaks, I have to pat the extra shine down on my legs because they look like I've dipped them in bacon grease! It’s important not to take it too far when lotioning up in an attempt to fight ash, or you'll end up looking like one giant grease ball.

Hi y’all,
Who is Nicole Richie? How did she get so skinny? Does she think she looks good? Why is she famous? Who is she really dating? Will her and Paris ever be friends again? Did she show Paris’ sex tape at a party? Are they getting back together on the David Letterman show? Who is she sleeping with? What plastic surgery has she had? What race is she? Why is she in every magazine?
Those were the questions I wanted to ask Nicole Richie. Normally, there’s a publicist involved who says, “You can’t ask about this or that.” But with Nicole, there were no such restrictions. She came to set the record straight. Nothing was off limits. And the questions we’ve all wanted answers to, SHE ANSWERS!

Hi y’all,
Right now I am sitting, typing on the computer, lookin' kinda crazy. I just went swimming so my hair is a big bush on my head and I'm in my swimsuit. No. It isn't a sexy Victoria's Secret bikini. I'm in a one-piece cuz they are more comfortable and I don't have to worry about the bottoms going up my butt. My swimsuit is kind of low cut on the chest though. I gotta hold onto SOME of the sexy (even though I've retired from modeling.) Ha!
You have no idea how excited I am right now. My new season starts on the 11th and I am going crazy with anticipation. There are so many new things about the talk show. The set is new. The theme song is updated. The topics are amazing. My clothes will be rockin'!!! It’s all new baby. All new!!!

I reveal a lot of myself on The Tyra Show. It's funny because a lot of people didn't really know my personality when I was modeling. I was talking to my friends the other day, and they were telling me what a lot of people thought I was like BEFORE the talk show started. My friends said some people thought I was quiet. Some people thought I was a diva. And some people just had no clue what I was truly about at all.

Hi y’all,
“Secret Lives of Party Girls” covers a really important topic. I realize girls like to have fun, but there is a big difference between having fun and losing control - and losing control is one step away from losing your life. I might sound preachy, or like your mama, but I love you and don’t want devastating things to happen in your life.
What did you think about the show? I read your opinions and thoughts on the blogs, and would like to know if you think there was anything I could have done better to reach the girls on the show.
Let me know what you think!
