Page Six is reporting that Janice Dickinson is pissed at Tyra Banks. Apparently, Banks was photographed holding Dickinson's book No Lifeguard on Duty. In the book, the self-proclaimed "World's First Supermodel" talks about her drug abuse, the incest that plagued her childhood, sex, and affairs with celebrities. When Banks was photographed holding the book, she was allegedly on her way to speak to a crowd of young girls and offer her wisdom (as only Tyra can do). Dickinson told Page Six: "And she's using my book. I mean, the thing looks so worn it's like she's been reading it on the toilet. It's pathetic. Where's her originality? Does she have no shame?"
Is Janice Dickinson really pissed about this? I think it's kind of small...even for supermodel melodrama. She acts like Tyra threw a phone at her a la Naomi Campbell. But, this could be an interesting and highly publicized feud. Like LC vs. Heidi and Spencer except way better, right? Tyra will talk about it on her show when she's supposed to be interviewing guests. Janice will flip out about it on The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency (she's filming the fourth season now in L.A.) It could be good.
Janice is working on another book too: Fifty and Fabulous. But Tyra will have to wait another twenty years or so before she steals that one for her inspirational speeches.

Wait, Janice is pissed because her book was being used for good? By Tyra? Which spreads the book's popularity?
I'm confused.

Tyra could qualify as the single most obnoxious human ever.

Tyra could qualify, but Janice owns the crown.
This is just silly. More of Janice seeking attention...or forgetting her meds...or both.

No, Tyra's seriously damaged. Every now and then The Soup shows a clip of her on that horrendous talkshow and I wonder if she might have some kind of brain damage.

I think perhaps the collagen in her face has started to float around and gotten lodged into her brain. Earth to Janice: if someone is giving you free publicity on your crappy book - that's a good thing. Time to be shutting up now.

No, no, guys. Books are for looking pretty on shelves.

Yeah, I think it is nice that Tyra is showing off Janice's book, but Tyra is messed up, I think it is due to her co-workers on her messed up runway show.
