Halloween is this Saturday so don’t be surprised to see daytime talk show hosts dressed up today.  Tyra Banks has picked out her costume – she’s dressing as Kim Kardashian along with two other costume changes.  I don’t know what the other two will be but I know they are real life TV personalities.
Here’s a picture of her from today’s episode:

We love Tyra Banks for being the crazy and wild person that she is, but she surprises us even more with her latest episode of The Tyra Banks Show. For the first time ever on television, Tyra Banks is brave enough to be the first person to air a colonic. I’m sure it was quite a surprise to the audience!
Both the colonhydrotherapist and the woman receiving the colonic are also to be applauded because there is no way I’d ever do that in front of millions of people!

Also during the show, Tyra Banks spoke with gold medalist swimmer, Ricky …read more

Tyra Banks will be welcoming L’il Kim to her talk show on Wednesday where they will talk about the stage crashing at the 2009 Video Music Awards.  This time, it’s not about Kanye!

Jay-Z and Alicia Keys performed “Empire State of Mind” and L’il Mama jumped up on stage because she felt overwhelmed with emotion.  Unfortunately, neither of them was happy about her sudden appearance and she has unsuccessfully reached out to both performers.
Here’s a preview of the discussion:
L’il Mama: ”I don’t think it was as serious as everyone was trying to make it out to be….When I was sitting in …read more

It was a fun night watching the Daytime Emmy Awards last night.  Did you catch the show?  If not, here’s a quick rundown of how our shows and hosts fared.

I wasn’t surprised at all to see that the Tyra Banks Show won the “informative” talk show award since she is constantly trying to push the envelope to educate her viewers whether it’s a giant stuffed vagina or having pregnant prostitutes on the show to tell their stories.  She really has carved out a niche for herself and I’m really happy for her.

The Rachael Ray show won the “entertainment” talk show …read more

Tyra Banks has promised that she will take out her weave and hair extensions for the first episode of the upcoming season of her talk show, which debuts on September 8, 2009.  I’m really happy that she’s doing it because I think that we, as a society, need to remember that what is natural is also beautiful.  We are so busy plumping our lips, smoothing our skin and starving ourselves that we sometimes lose focus of the fact that we are all individuals and possess our own, natural beauty.  I’m really looking forward to the show.  Of course, she couldn’t …read more

After a listening party for Whitney Houston’s upcoming album I Look To You, talk show host Martha Stewart tweeted the following: "Whitney Houston singing and performing better than ever last night!!"
She also talked about the atmosphere at the event and wrote: "ALICIA KEYS WROTE ONE OF THE SONGS. She danced while it played. L.A. Reid, Dionne Warwick, Whitney’s mom Missy,and lots of other friends, family" (she later corrected herself and said that Whitney’s mother’s name is actually Cissy).

Martha also included a link to this snapshot of Whitney performing.

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince star, Daniel Radcliffe, was on Live With Regis and Kelly where he discussed the film which opens on July 15, 2009.  I’m so excited!

The audience seemed very enthused to see the British actor (it must be nice to have such a warm welcome).  He told Regis and Kelly that he would be turning 20 in a couple weeks and Regis remarked that he would no longer be a teenager.  Daniel replied “yeah, I might as well give it all up now.”  Too funny!
He also talked about his stint on Broadway in the gritty play, …read more

I missed it yesterday but I wanted to let you guys know that it’s “Sleep Week” on Live with Regis and Kelly.  It’s perfect if you have ever suffered from insomnia since they will be talking with Dr. Nisha Aurora, the Director of the Mount Sinai Comprehensive Center for Sleep Medicine, about common complaints and solutions.
Some of the issues they address are:

Are you sleepy/ tired during the day?
Do you have trouble falling asleep?
Do you have trouble staying asleep?
Does your partner complain you’re snoring?
Do you like to sleep late and then can’t get up in morning? …read more

Today show host, Matt Lauer, interviewed Michael Jackson’s older brother, Jermaine Jackson, this morning and was given a rare behind-the-scene glimpse of Jackson’s beloved Neverland Ranch.
It was a very emotional discussion, of course, with Jermaine speaking candidly about his brother’s death a week ago today.
He recalled how he learned about the tragic news: “She was crying, saying he was dead. To hear my mother say, ‘Michael is dead,’ to feel and hear the tone in her voice to say her child is dead, is nothing that anyone can ever imagine.  I tried to console her but I wanted to …read more

Regis Philbin had the day off so Kelly Ripa co-hosted the show yesterday with her husband, Mark Consuelos.  It was hilarious when they talked about their two-week long road trip with their children.  Instead of jet-setting around the world, the pair elected to travel with their three children in a rented minivan. 
 
When they showed pictures of the kids as they visited a variety of sights on the trip, I seriously cracked up because their oldest son, 12-year-old Michael, refused to smile in any pictures.
