Slog - Comments on Turning to Tyra http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/01/turning_to_tyra Hillary Clinton is going to be on the Tyra Banks Show on Friday. Clips and excerpts are leaking out—and being pushed by the Clinton campaign, which just sent me this humanizing snippet: TYRA: Senator Clinton got a lot of attention recently when she showed her vulnerable side in New Hampshire. That has been everywhere. Everybody is talking about it and when I was watching you I was like I have been there. How many women here have been there when it is just like, the pressure gets so much and you just break? I'm curious to know when you went...

Has she converted to Scientology or something? What a freak.

Seriously, I hear what Hillary says, read what she says and you can litterally see the trianglation going on. Hell, watch her on TV and you see the trianglation going on in her thought bubble.

I hate Hillary. I really really do.

Then one of them says "OK now back to reality: Hilary was on the Tyra Banks show"


And the press leading up to this era wept.

Is Tyra credible now? I thought it had been established that she's batshit crazy, or not the sharpest knife in the drawer at the very least. I was about to ask why she wouldn't go on Oprah, but Duh. Glad I realized the answer to that question before I asked it. Upon reflection though, even though Oprah endorses Obama, why would that mean that she wouldn't invite other candidates onto her show to talk?

She is ridiculous. After her whole "I have a crippling fear of dolphins and can't get into water near them" show, my 11-year-old sister-in-law informed me that she is most afraid of dolphins. Further questioning led to her admitting it was because Tyra is, too.

God, I hate Tyra so much. And Hillary going on Tyra is a pretty fucking poor response to Oprah-Obama. I mean, come on, has anyone on her campaign watched 'The Soup' and their myriad of Tyra clips? How can you expect to be taken seriously as a candidate- man or woman- if you're on TYRA?

Remember that Arsenio wasn't exactly considered a journalistic heavyweight?

Lighten up.

Just to note... Obama was on Tyra's show too.

Or vaseline, I guess. I assume she was poking fun at Oprah's giveaway shows - which is a much funnier parody that the SNL or Mad TV ones. I can't imagine ever watching her show but that was seriously hilarious.

It is 100% idiotic. (I don't have to see the clip, I know how bizarre it must be.)

Top Model is great, though.
