Tyra Banks Talk Show Not Immune to These Economic Times

Tyra Banks has (theoretically) lent her shoulders to many a teary eye and lost soul. But where does she turn when her well-weaved veneer catches a snag? The economy has dealt her ample empire no small blow. Her talk show has been in syndication for four seasons, but starting in September, it will air only on the CW in the afternoons. Also, Tyra’s production schedule has been slashed from 34 to 26 weeks. TV stations were forced to cut costs and thus eliminate Tyra.

Jay-Z and Beyonce Are Doing Well?

Jay and Beyonce were seated front row during the Knicks Cavaliers game last night as Lebron came to the Garden. Even though the Garden has the highest ticket prices in the league, when you earn what these two powerhouses brought in last year, front row seats are nothing.

Chris Brown Wins Big At American Music Awards

Chris Brown was the big winner at the American Music Awards on Sunday night, surprising himself most of all.

“I don’t know what to say. I would have given it to Coldplay,” said Brown, who won artist of the year, male pop/rock artist and male soul/R&B artist.

Kanye West, still sore at losing male rap/hip-hop artist last year, won the trophy this time – then said Lil Wayne deserved it more.

“I want to give this award to Wayne,” he said. “If it was last year it would have been my award.”

It was West’s second trophy of the night, following his win for rap/hip-hop album, for Graduation.

“It’s our responsibility as musicians to push music to the point it was in the ’60s and ’70s,” he said. “I want to be Elvis.”

Host Jimmy Kimmel, who had made West’s ego a running joke, quipped: “Elvis died on the toilet with half a jelly doughnut in his mouth. You may want to rethink that.”
