Of course, it wouldn't be a Speidi interview if the couple didn't talk about Lauren Conrad's sex tape.

In this clip, J tells the story of how he came out to his mother, or rather, how his mother pulled him out.

Tyra asked Scott and his girlfriend about their sex life, but you can tell by the faces that she's making that she didn't really want to know the answer.


Eventually, Tyra gave up and had the audience ask the sex questions. Things got inappropriate from here.

I was literally so disgusted by the girl who eats her scabs that I had to mute her segment, but in this clip, Tyra talks to the booger girl and asks her what her favorite snot consistency is.


Tyra is obsessed with popping pimples and recently got hooked on watching internet footage of others doing it (and we can't blame her). She showed a reel of her favorites to the audience, but the most offensive parts were blurred out in the broadcast.

The mothers of the little potty mouths recorded their children cursing, and sent the tapes into Tyra. Once the boys were on the show, however, they wouldn't say shit if they had a mouth full of it.

Tyra said that she's finally learning how to "celebrate" her success. In this clip, she discusses her recent weight loss and how she likes her salad prepared.


In this clip, she makes Larry touch her "natural" hair, which she admits is actually chemically straightened and dyed.

Jeffrey, who is only 16 years old, says that although the exorcism helped him to stop acting on his gay thoughts, he still has those thoughts, and he's working on ridding himself of those, too, because the head of his church, Patricial McKinney, says that otherwise, Jeffrey will still go to hell. Patricia is a self-proclaimed prophet who runs her church with her husband, Kelvin McKinney, whose title is "overseer." Confused on what a prophet is? According to Patricia a prophet is:
1.) A messenger from God
2.) A seer (so that makes her the seer and her husband the overseer?)
3.) Someone who can see into the future
4.) Someone who has open-eye visions
5.) Someone who has close-eye visions
6.) Traveler through the realm of the spirit
7.) Unpopular
8.) A very lonely person


8.) Someone who possesses gaydar.


Patricia and Kelvin put the video of the exorcism on YouTube.


But the video was taken down by the non-profit organization True Colors, a mentoring program for gay youth, with the help of the department of family services. Jeffrey was involved in True Colors and had a mentor, up until a few days before the exorcism. One of the women from the organization joined the panel, and Jeffrey was sent backstage. Seeing her interaction with the McKinneys was like watching water boil.


The McKinneys are absolutely infuriating, not only because they are so stupid that they made Tyra look like the smartest woman on television, but because they make no sense. However, when Patricia confessed that she, too, was "once gay," her interest in the matter suddenly clicked.

However, her facial modeling indicated that the answer as to why Paulina and Janice hate her is "jealousy."

Here is the manifesto, for those who can read:
"To celebrate uniqueness.
To know when to cut the hair.
To welcome great advice.
To know that smart is always sexy.
To know that sexy is very good.
To really get the body and skin that we are in.
To seek beauty in everything.
To know what colors work and which ones are better on someone else.
To accept constructive criticism.
To practice the art of the smeyes.
To appreciate original style, especially our own.
To laugh at ourselves a little more than every now and then.
To dream....big.
To take more pictures.
To constantly evolve.
To cherish true friendship.
To be the ceo of our lives.
To be more confident and self loving.
To know when to rock a trend, know when to act like it never happened.
To ignore the haters.
That haters?
To know how to beat our own face.
To know how to do a smokey eye.
To live more healthily, mind, body, and spirit.
To know that some things that may have happened to us aren't our fault.
To keep believing in love.
To know that every hallway is a runway.
To work crazy hard for what we want.
To be beautiful, truly beautiful, inside and out.

Fierce and Love,
Tyra Banks"

If you're interested in the articles, you can read all about Tyra's hair and makeup, or maybe you'd like to check out the "timeline" of her life.

OK, first of all, this:

Tyra came out with her natural hair completely wet.

And she had audience members come up and touch it.

The lesson here was: "Wigs and weaves are options, not something that you need."

Then she got a blowout and had it styled, and continued on with the show.

Perez came out.

I know, right? For real:

(That's cereal milk on his chin, BTW.)

Tyra referred to him as "The King of Blogging," even though she told him, "I'm not very familiar with your site…" Bull. Fucking. Shit.

That post was the seed that her manure developed into the tree of knowledge that is "Kiss my fat ass!"

She even knows his nicknames for her.

Tyra tried to get Perez to admit that he'd been teased as a child and that's why he grew up to be such an angry asshole. He wouldn't though. Then she tried to strike a deal with him. She asked him to not make fun of the underage children of celebrities for one year. He refused.

Then she knocked it down to three months, but he wanted an "out clause."

Then they agreed that he would only post "newsy" content about celebrities' children, and he'd leave opinion out of it. He would have to do this for three months, and if he followed through, he would get to appear on a future episode of ANTM.

It would seem that he didn't stick to the deal. It's kind of a relief though, that he won't be appearing on Top Model, though.

Coming up this season on Tyra:

Holla for clip-ins!

The women who "represented" each lifestyle took extreme sides of the argument and it seemed like all of them were wrong. Nobody, at any point during the show, seemed cognizant of the fact that there isn't one "correct" choice, and that the only thing that ultimately matters is that women choose what feels right for them. (That, and that there are women who are not heterosexual who grapple with these same issues.)

Lauren, the married woman, said she's tried muscle relaxers and alcohol to loosen up, but to no avail. She's tried dilators, but still that does not work. Even seeing sex in movies makes her uncomfortable. Unfortunately, and not surprisingly, Tyra doesn't seem to be helping matters.

The refreshing thing about this particular debate was that the opponents of gay marriage on the show are actually vocal about opposing homosexuality in general. Many times during these sorts of public debates, those against legalizing gay marriage (like Elisabeth Hasselbeck) will maintain that they are not prejudiced against homosexuals ...they just don't want them to be able to marry each other because of (fill in the blank), as a way of making it appear as though it is not a civil rights issue. It's good to see an extreme representation of the anti gay marriage stance on something like Tyra, because these people help make it more evident how, at the core of this issue, rights are being withheld from a minority group of people for no other reason than because they are "different."

The six people involved included: a lipstick lesbian, a butch lesbian, a "masculine" gay man, a "feminine" gay man, a drag queen, and bisexual man (their own self-identified labels, not mine). As with similar social experiments on Tyra, the participants were placed in a "kingdom" and were asked to assign roles within that kingdom (queen, king, pauper, jester, etc.), to create a sort of pecking order that would mirror that within the LGBT community. The purpose of all that was to facilitate a discourse about how some gay people feel that they're above, or better than, other gay people, based solely on their individual sexualities (example: none of the participants thought too highly of the bisexual guy, because he hasn't picked a side, or the drag queen, whom they viewed more as a clown than entertainer).

It was definitely interesting to hear their honest opinions, but I found it strange that — even in regular life, outside of this fictional kingdom — a group of people who don't fit into societal norms, are prone to categorizing people, and using labels/assigning meanings to them. Even weirder was the lack of humor involved, and that the title of "queen" went to the lipstick lesbian, and not the drag queen.

The Johnston's said they wanted to speak publicly because they are sick of the Palin family and the media tarnishing their name. They chose this particular forum — the Tyra show — to let everyone know that they are not "white trash." However, mom Sherry's weird non-answer when asked about her drug charges, and sister Mercede's (yep, it's "Mercede," singular) feud with Bristol over the fact that Mercede is friends with a bunch of other girls that Levi did not practice abstinence with, may make their case a bit flimsy. Actually, their problems — drugs, harassing texts, teen sex, "not bein' able to see my granbaby" — sounded similar to those of litigants on Judge Judy, most of whom, I'm quite sure, would certainly be classified by some as "white trash".

Whatever the case, Bristol released a statement via Sarah Palin's political team:

Which made absolutely no sense, seeing as how Tyra pointed out that no one gets paid to go on the Tyra show.

Apparently there's tons of acrimony between the Palins and the Johnstons, most of which seems to stem from Mercede, who is all up in the mix. (Why does she have such close relationships with all the people her brother frigs anyway?)

The Johnstons only get to see baby Tripp about once a month, and he is not allowed to leave the Palin house with them. There also seems to be some tension regarding taking pictures with Tripp, because the Palins fear that the Johnstons will sell them to tabloids.

Levi didn't do much talking during the whole interview, except to say that he thinks that Sarah Palin was aware that he and Bristol were doing it, and that she didn't say anything to them about abstinence.

The thing is, the Johnstons were supposed to be breaking their silence, but even though they were talking, they didn't really say all that much. And what they did say was kind of confusing. Case in point: Sherry's difficulty in expressing what's going on inside her head:

As we posted last week, Desmond, Isis' boyfriend, also was on the show, and surprised her by getting down on one knee and proposing. She said yes.





Later on, Katelynn, the post-op transgendered woman from The Real World: Brooklyn, sat down to give Isis some tips about having sex with Desmond for the first time (which Isis has not done yet). Katelynn said that it will be painful, depending on how frequently she "dilates" and the "size" of Desmond.

Ralph, a black man, is Christian's roommate at college. He wrote to Tyra to tell her about this guy's behavior, which includes his sweeping negative generalizations about black people (they're all drug-dealing, violent thieves on welfare), constant derogatory remarks and verbal harassment, which includes Christian calling Ralph the N-word.

Props to Tyra, though, because she came back at that guy in the weirdest, most inventive way, when she told him that when she closes her eyes, he "sounds black" to her, because of the tone of his voice. Naturally, he took this as an insult.
