‘fly girls’ flying high!

make sure your trays are folded up and your seat is back in its upright position because more reality tv is zoomin’ in to your living room. okay, that was obnoxious. but so is this: the CW has greenlit a reality tv show based on the personal lives of five flight attendents working for virgin america. the CW boasts,

fly girls follows [the ladies] as they jet from one glamorous location to the next, including las vegas, south beach and new york city, while purusing good times, great parties, adventure and love.”

i don’t know about you, but the flights i’ve been on have all seemed quite boring. the ladies will also share a “crash-pad” in la la land, california. check out some cast interviews here.

if you ask me, this is just about co-branding. virgin america and the CW are tootin’ each other’s horns all over the place. smart move, actually. the CW says their partners at virgin are offering the “hip, sophisticated vibe” that today’s travelers are looking for.  and virgin hits back that the CW is helping to bring the “style and fun back to flying.” alright, whatever you say guys! fly girls premieres on march 24th.

does she even realize how vain she is? tyra banks, ladies & gentlemen! ever since the launch of her talk show, tyra finds some way to make every segment all about her. and the season premiere of tyty’s 5th season will be no different!

the lovely lady has decided to make the premiere, september 8th “national real hair day!” she actually created her own holiday. i think what tyra doesn’t realize is that most of us ‘normal’ people don’t have hairstylists… therefore ‘real hair day’ is everyday.

tyra says: “this season on ‘the tyra show’ we’re taking it to the next level and getting more real than ever before by encouraging women everywhere to own and rock what they’ve got and be proud! for the season 5 premiere, i will be doing just that – no fake hair, i’m rocking my REAL hair. this will all be going down on september8, 2009, which we’re declaring national real hair day! we welcome everyone to go natural with me!”

wanna see tyra’s real hair? and also see ladies wearing strange nude bodysuits? i’m assuming the answer to those questions is ‘no.’ if it happens to be ‘yes’ (weirdos), then you can tune in the the cw to celebrate our God-given hair!
