TYRA ANGERS TALK SHOW AUDIENCE: Witnesses run to Page Six after host keeps them waiting for more nearly two hours.(August 19, 2008)
*A recent taping of the "Tyra Banks Show" got started nearly two hours later than scheduled – which angered audience members because the delay appeared to be for no good reason. An audience was brought into the West 26th St. studio for a taping of her episode "Celebrating Black Models, Past, Present and Future." But, an audience member tells the New York Post's Page Six that Tyra kept them waiting nearly 120 minutes as she stood backstage giggling, snacking and chatting with the crew. "You could hear her going on and on because she was standing right behind the stage curtain," said the audience member. "She's talking and talking. Meanwhile, you have the entire audience waiting almost two hours for the taping to start." The spy also said Banks had the nerve to have a bad attitude when she finally started the show, which featured interviews with Beverly Johnson, Veronica Webb, Chanel Iman and Tameka Jacobs. "She leaves us waiting, and everyone is sitting there complaining, and then she comes out and doesn't say a word about it. She didn't even say hello, she got right into her script," said the source. "She acted so cold towards everyone. She's a phony." Another audience member told Page Six that Tyra's guests couldn't get a word in edgewise. All along, "Tyra kept saying, 'When I was a model,' and would hardly let them talk," said the audience member. "It was all about her, as usual." After the in-studio interview, the entire audience – which featured loads of aspiring models – was led outside onto the street for the show's ending. "Cops had it closed off, and Tyra had bodyguards," laughed the spy. "She had the audience prance down the street and then release black balloons. Some were whining that it was so bad for the environment. It was so disorganized, people fell over the press outside and almost trampled two little girls. Tyra was acting like it was a live sporting event instead of the most self-indulgent, narcissistic crap."
