Praise Be to Tyra. “Life-Size” is Back!

Every twenty-something gal knows the marvelous movie-making that was “Life-Size,” Tyra Banks and Lindsay Lohan’s collaborative made-for-TV film chronicling the story of a preteen girl and her doll, Eve, who comes to life to join Lohan on a journey of empowerment and self-discovery. Magic on the silver screen.

Of course, the most memorable part of the film is the epic girl power anthem, “Be A Star.” Yep, the movie has given me a great tune for shower singing whenever a pick-me-up mantra is necessary (“shine bright, shine far, don’t be shy, be a star” really gets the motivation flowing).

According to my similarly “Life-Size” obsessed roommate and later confirmed by the crew at The Frisky, Eve’s coming back to life in 2015 with a sequel. Can I get an AMEN!?  Of course, the question on everyone’s mind is whether or not LiLo will be in the mix.

Lindsay, if you’re listening, as someone who considers “Life-Size” your second best work to date (second only to “The Parent Trap,” obvs), I strongly advise that you take some time from your busy schedule to join Tyra for “Life-Size” 2. Don’t let me down, Linds!

Just Your Average America’s Next Top Model Catfight… Sorority Girl Style

So I used to be an avid ANTM fan — could not get enough of Tyra, the contestants, the clothes, the makeup, and (duh) the drama. But unfortunately life went on, my Wednesdays got busier, and I have since stopped watching. Well… congrats to you ANTM and whoever thought up this brilliant idea that will definitely have me tuning in to Cycle 19. Contestants will be college girls, only taller and well, models. As of right now there are 30 finalists who are counting on the public’s vote to get onto the show.

ANTM College Edition will put a little spin on the show’s overall vibe and I am psyched. Imagine your average sorority house drama and then factor in a bunch of hungry, bitchy girls competing for the prize of their life (which happens to be 100% based on their looks). OMG tensions will be THROUGH THE ROOF! See you in the fall Tyra!

America’s Next Top Money-Maker

Not gonna lie, I’ve been a fan of America’s Next Top Model since day one (or, to use Tyra lingo, cycle one). I’ve seen the series through myriad changes on the judging panel; Mr. Jay’s black-to-platinum hair; Ms. Jay’s weekly-expanding bowtie, fro, collar, what have you; Ty-Ty Baby’s spot-on psychological evaluations of prospective top models; and Nigel’s never-changing dead sexiness. My friends and I used to spend our hungover college Saturdays on the couch watching ANTM marathons and calculating the judge’s voting strategy down to a science. It’s scary how accurate we’ve become at determining who’ll get the boot each week and who the top picks will be at the finale.

But lately, I’ve been questioning Queen Tyra’s decisions when it comes to my beloved show. The all-stars season was bad enough—nothing screams “ratings ploy” like bringing 14 hot messes under one roof for an all-out battle of the egos. But the ultimate jump-the-shark moment has to be the debut of “Dream Come True,”  a Top Model-inspired fragrance available exclusively at Target starting in January.

Smize, bitches—now you too can smell like desperation in a polyester weave.
