Get the Bitch Or Die Trying? - 
by J-Unit
If you are unfamiliar with the situation, Tyra and Naomi are not really the best of friends. In fact, Tyra says that dealing with Naomi Campbell is one of the reasons she has all but left that part of the world of modeling. When Tyra came on the scene, there was an unwritten rule that there can only be one black supermodel, and Naomi wouldn't let go. TVgasm has a similar unwritten rule, and as soon as we find that other half-black guy or girl, we aren't letting any more in. Anyway, Tyra is going to confront Naomi on the Tyra show today, Friday November 18th (check local listings). I meant to post this yesterday to give people some advance notice, but since TVgasm is so popular these days, I had a little trouble. Luckily for all of you who don't check TVgasm before you go to work, school, or day care, Oxygen replays the show several times, so make sure to set your Tivos or VCRs if you won't be able to catch it when it airs in your town.
Tyra's doing all of this because you girls hate on each other so much. She's been feuding for 14 years, but now it's all about sisterhood. And, really, aren't we all for sisterhood, especially when it doesn't involve traveling pants? That's what I thought.
UPDATE: Oh, it will be blogged. It BEGS to be blogged.

For 14 years, eh? Well, that's a really Long time. A really Long time.
ha!
P.S. Missed the 'gasm yesterday - glad you're back (to regular speed) - and doubly glad that I can still post in complete anonymity. (my not-so-subtle vote for not making signing in mandatory - please)

The best part of Miss Jay's shirt is on the back it reads, "and I hit the bitch back." I hope Tyra's staff patted down Naomi for a cell phone because she has been known to use it to "beat a bitch's ass." Tyra should call in Kimora for reinforcements.

They can do whatever they want. Naomi is Naomi. She is actually fearless and not about to change for anyone.
If she could tone down her personality she might have achieved the modeling things she meant to (instead of Tyra) and she might not still be doing runway shows in her mid-'30s.

sweet god, please post the recap [[spoiler removed]] that was the most glorious moment of the last 22 years of my life, other than like graduating college and getting out of that DUI that one time.
p.s. i think i have a crush on j-unit. is there a therapy group for this? perhaps a spin-off blog?
p.p.s. i got five more bucks on it coming down to kim and bre.

P.S. neither tyra or naomi is half black---they're both black. In fact if you've watched ANTM you would have seen that both Tyra's parents are black. So i don't get the half-black comment.

I don't get the half-black comment either, but it is NOT lost on me that the winners of the show have never been dark-skinned black women who appear more African than anything else and have fuller features. Hell, there probably will never be one. The judges are forever talking about "classic" beauty as European features, especially blue eyes. Yawn!
As for Naomi, God bless her. God knows when another beauty like her will be lauded by the fashion industry. In my estimation, she has earned the right to be bitchy.

If you really need to have an explanation why I would make a would make a half-black comment, you really haven't been reading TVgasm for that long.
