Tyra Shows Her Real Hair; The Secret to the First Lady`s Super- Toned Arms
HAMMER: Welcome back to SHOWBIZ TONIGHT. I`m A.J. Hammer in New York. All right. Did you see this? I`ve been wanting to show this to you all day. You`ve heard of the blushing bride? Now, I would like you to meet the cackling bride. This is the brand-new YouTube sensation of a couple getting married. Now, as you see, everything is going just fine until the groom stumbles on a word in the vows.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: I, Andrew Paul Daniel Engstrom.</s>ANDREW PAUL DANIEL ENGSTROM, GROOM: I, Andrew Paul Daniel Engstrom.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: Do take Melissa Renee Warren -</s>A. ENGSTROM: Do take Melissa Renee Warren -</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: To be my lawfully wedded wife.</s>A. ENGSTROM: To be my waffle-y - lawfully pancake-y.</s>A. ENGSTROM: I`ve been scared of this all my life.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: It`s OK, folks. I`ve seen this before.</s>A. ENGSTROM: OK.</s>HAMMER: All right. I`m amused. I think it`s funny. And I don`t want to be too cynical here, but is it just me or does this seem kind of staged, right? What kind of wedding video is this cut-away shot? They have like three cameras set up and they`re taking videos of the guests while the couple the couple is taking their vows? And the bride`s laugh, quite frankly, it sounded a little bit fake to me. Now, we don`t know for sure if it is staged. But the fact remains a lot of people are saying "I do" to this video on YouTube and they are getting a big laugh out of it. And I guess that`s what it`s all about. As we move on tonight, Tyra Banks has flipped her wig. Yes, I`m here to tell you she really did flip her wig on her show today for Tyra`s real hair day. The talk show host is baring a brand-new, bold look. Take a look at this.</s>TYRA BANKS, HOST, "THE TYRA BANKS SHOW": I`ve worn weaves and wigs and pieces and clip-ons and clip-outs and clip-downs and around, since I was 17, 18 years old. And I wanted to show the real me. I wanted to show the raw me. And I just got out of the shower - beat the face first, of course, you all. And then came out of here - came on this stage and this is me, you all.</s>HAMMER: Yes. Jess Weiner, off to you first. What do you think? A bold by Tyra or it`s just a big publicity stunt?</s>JESSICA WEINER, AUTHOR AND SELF-ESTEEM EXPERT: Oh, A.J., I think they kind of go hand in hand. Listen, she`s a smart businesswoman. And today is the first day of her new season. So of course, it`s going to be bold. But having done her show and worked with her before, I really do have to say I think she`s authentically looking within herself sometimes. And I think she`s looking to see what she can challenge in the beauty world. I was there the day that she declared to the paparazzi, kiss her fat butt and the world applauded.</s>HAMMER: Right.</s>WEINER: And I think a lot of women taking off their weaves today.</s>HAMMER: What was your take on this, April?</s>WOODARD: It`s unbe-weave-able.</s>HAMMER: Yes. And quite frankly, I`m looking at her hair right there and I don`t think there`s anything wrong with it yet. She said since she was 18, she`s been wearing the fake hair. Jess, you mentioned that famous time that Tyra Banks walked out on to her show in a bathing suit. That happened after the tabloid magazines wrote some really nasty headlines about her. And we have unearthed that clip. Tyra firing back.</s>BANKS: I have something to say. To all of you that have something nasty to say about me or other women that are built like me - I have one to say to with you. Kiss my fat ass!</s>HAMMER: Yes. There you go. I mean, she showed us her real body. Today, she showed us her real hair. Jess, like then, I have to imagine once again women around the country cheering on Tyra.</s>WEINER: I think so. You know, look, A.J., I think so. I think "The Soup" will probably have a field day with this kind of stuff. But I will tell you that I think by Tyra trying to challenge some beauty stereotypes, she`s one celebrity out there who`s pretty outspoken about it. And I can`t get down on her for that. I think everybody out there should look within them and say, "Do I need to spend all this time in hair and makeup and trying to be somebody I`m not?"</s>HAMMER: Right.</s>WEINER: That`s a good question for her viewers to ask themselves.</s>HAMMER: Well, while Tyra was revealing the secret of her hair, the secret of the Michelle Obama`s buff arms was revealed today. And the first lady`s longtime trainer, Cornell McClellan, spills the beans in a new interview with "Women`s Health" magazine. He says - are you ready for it? The secret to Michelle`s fabulous arms are, my favorite, hammer curls and tricep push-downs. April, hammer curls and tricep push-downs - that`s it. Not too complicated.</s>WOODARD: Who knew?</s>HAMMER: Is this going to inspire women everywhere to do hammer curls and tricep push-downs?</s>WOODARD: I know. Who knew that we had to wait so long to get Michelle Obama`s political arms? But you know, I did a story with, you know, another trainer who tried to tell me the secret but he didn`t quite have the secret. So I`m glad the secret is finally out. But you know, the bigger picture is, you know, about 65 percent of Americans are obese and overweight. And if she can inspire people to work out their arms, maybe they`ll get to the rest of their body and we`ll be a healthier nation.</s>HAMMER: Jess, let me ask you this. Do you think that Michelle Obama, now that she`s inspiring the nation to have toned arms, needs to do - I don`t know - a workout video, let`s say perhaps with Richard Simmons? Can we imagine that for a moment?</s>WOODARD: No.</s>HAMMER: Do you think this would inspire people everywhere?</s>WEINER: No, no. A.J., no. No, please. Here`s what I want. I want us - this is good that we know that the secret to hard - you know, hardworking good arms is exercise and nutrition. But I want us to focus on the content of her character and her powerful choices as first lady. And let us get off her appearance train for a while. She is a fabulous woman besides her fit arms. I want girls out there to look up to her not just because she`s got, you know, great biceps, but because she`s a fantastic leader herself.</s>HAMMER: I agree with you 100 percent, Jess. But you know, people are paying attention to that and that is not going away. Let it be a part of the whole equation if it must be there.</s>WEINER: Absolutely.</s>HAMMER: Jess Weiner, April Woodard, thank you both so much. All right. Poor George Clooney. I mean, the guy can`t even go to a press conference without getting hit on.</s>CLOONEY: I know what the question is.</s>UNIDENTIFIED MALE: George, please, take me. Choose me, George. Please, please, choose me. George, may I kiss you, please?</s>HAMMER: George is one of the coolest guys. So I`m wondering, how did he respond to a guy stripping down and asking him for a kiss? You must see what happens next. This is SHOWBIZ TONIGHT on HLN.
