Tyra...You're Single...BUT UR STILL RICH.....GET OVER URSELF ALREADY!

drumbeat to Real Recognizes Real for the story:

Tyra Banks, Is Gracing Essence Magazine's Cover
She looks good.


Well, Tyra's lonely.
Still.
Again.
Newsflash.
Tell us something we don't know.
Give it a rest already.

What is the problem? You're rich, beautiful, the lace front wigs are getting a lot better...sorry, I can't front.
Let me have 2 of those issues.
Chile please...everytime I'd get hit with a pang of loneliness, would mean a new stamp on my passport, ok??.

I think it's a turn off-well, I know I'm turned off by Tyra's invoking of the Oprah W spirit-- if somethin bad happens to a guest, make sure u confess it happened to u too.
This is especially common with Tyra if a guest is single and bemoaning the fact.
*yawn*
yeah Ty-Ty, I know you're going to make the story segment about YOU.
*sigh*
Maybe the guys are bored and tired of hearing u complain about ur status too. In every interview that I've read...she complained about being single-I can only imagine what my friends and family would think if I talked about my singledom ALL THE TIME.
G-Money would check me in such a godly fashion.
and Mama Ivent would tell me to suck it up!
I'm just sayin.

Tonex, formerly known as a gospel singer??



TIME TO MOVE ON: Tonex talks about the future
source

Gospel music fans have moved on from the chaos surrounding Tonex's "The Naked Truth" video. controversial vid And so has he.

The controversial singer says he's moving on to acting and book writing.

"I just filmed "The Hustle" with Charlie Murphy, David Alan Grier and Kym Whitley," he told us. "And I'm working with Janet Jackson her new album and a couple of songs with Michael."

Does this mean his gospel music career is over? Tonex says [fans] will hear from him internationally (London). He may release an album in fall 2008. Domestically, he's sticking with acting.

Why is he doing it this way? "Less is more," he says. "If you pull back, you get launched forward. Always keep them guessing. A lot of the gospel artists, you see them all of the time. Sometimes you have to pull back to launch forward."
***
I'm not really sure where I am on the map as far as Tonex's concerned.
He has exhibited frustration, anger and hurt towards the church that is alarmingly familiar to me.
I do remember his androgynous phase too. Who was he rebelling against?
I hope that he finds joy and peace in Christ, and sincere people in the entertainment business who are not wolves in sheep clothing.
Check out my favorite song by him, which is "(Lord) Make Me Over, Again" (see the vid below)
