One moment while I wiki Tyra Banks.

Yeah, that didn't help at all. While I see no reason why she couldn't be an author, I equally see no reason why she could.

I'll reserve judgement, and just not read the book when it's out.
Reasons why she couldn't? Well, as far as I know, she's bitchy, shallow, and shouty.

Oh, and also a lizard;

Oh, God, this is just like Stephanie Meyer considering herself better than Shakespeare and other classically great writers. What kind of person wants to read about vain, vapid, arrogant asshats who think that their profession actually has some kind of mysticism and requires some philosophy and sophistication, from the little I've seen of ANTM? News flash: Your entire job is to wear clothes and look pretty. We are fast approaching an age where a digital construct can do their exact jobs, without the drama queen bullshit that I'm sure their bosses have to go through.

Chicken: Say whaaaaat?


No, seriously. I don't get it. Why would anyone want this thing? Why would whats-her-name want to write this thing? Who is whats-her-name, and can she write? Why would children want to read this thing? Why would adults want to read this thing? Why would paperweights want to be placed upon this thing? I'm sorry, but this announcement only fills me with questions, not answers.

Also, last but not least: WHO THOUGHT THIS WAS A GOOD IDEA?

MODELLAND PLOT SUMMARY:

Three girls are transported to a land that is filled with only beautiful women.
The three girls, all very average, begin to fell self-conscious and develop eating disorders.
They later take up drugs and begin prostituting themselves to make ends meet.

By Tyra Banks

And on the back of her book:
SEE WHAT THE CRITICS SAY!

"What the fuck? Really? REALLY?"
-Gene Hackman

"I guarantee that this book will in one way or another cause the suicide of an insecure teenage girl."
-Roger Ebert

Quite the hilarity. Christ she's ugly, though.
Indeed. The gap between what the fashion industry thinks is attractive and what real men think is attractive is a vast one.

Then again it may actually be good. The odds are stacked against her, but it will, at least, sell.

Seriously, I get the --bellas part, but how ignorant must one be to not realize that maybe the "Intoxi--" part might not be the best name. I wonder what soulless demon is taking Tyra's money to write this garbage for her.

Damn, and I thought that hundreds of other people were self-centered. I've seen videos of her acting like this on a lower scale, but this is just insane. I know she probably takes her work seriously, but this is believing in yourself a bit too much and too ambitiously. Maybe that "dog" that bit her actually did give her rabies.

Welcome to the post Stephanie Meyer world everyone. A world where all you need is a pen and paper and suddenly you are an author.

J.R.R. Tolkien v.s. objectified women who don't wear enough clothing.

Yeah, I can totally see the resemblance.

So she's going to write a book on a crappy story based on Models?......How is that fantasy? That stuff happens here in reality.

There is a diffrence between Fantasy as in our Dreams and Fantasy as in a Fantasy world. Making a teen drama in another world is not fantasy.
