America’s Next Top Model is…a dork.

The redhead overcame her shyness to become the first petite-cycle winner on Tyra Banks’ America’s Next Top Model! At 5-foot-7-inches tall, Nicole is one of the shortest champs in ANTM history. It was also the first-ever Top Model finale pitting two finalists against each other (there are usually three finalists). Southern sensation Laura Kirkpatrick won runner-up in the series’ first-ever petite-themed competition. Nicole managed to edge out the Southern belle — who credits the competition with helping her cope with a lifelong struggle against dyslexic.

The 18-year-old University of Colorado student has landed a $100,000 Cover Girl contract and six-page spread in Seventeen Magazine and representation from Wilhemina Models, thanks to her big win.

“I’m a dork and I’m America’s Next Top Model!” the beauty from Louisville, Colo. gushed after her win, E! Online reported. “I had to learn to embarrass myself—and to speak, which was a struggle,” she said. “Sometimes I didn’t think I was going to survive the journey. Like, I remember during casting week I went home and I cried because I was like, ‘What have I gotten myself into? I can’t deal with this.’”

On tomorrow’s edition of The Tyra Banks Show, supermodel-turned-burgeoning-media-mogul sits down for an exclusive interview with Lauren Essex-Williams, a 29-year-old British woman born with two vaginas!

The press release promises to show viewers what two vaginas look like and Lauren describes sex is like. Well, we’re so TiVo-ing this…..

It’s a “Tyra Show” international exclusive, meet the woman who was born with two vaginas in an episode scheduled to air on Friday, November 6th, blares a press release issued Thursday.

Lauren believes she has two periods: “I think so because my periods generally last about 21 days…When I was a teenager I had really heavy periods…I would have to change pads every hour….”

And while doctors believe its safe for Lauren to bear children — she could become pregnant while already pregnant: “The doctor in England said pregnancy wise, it should be okay…if I do get pregnant it should push the other uterus over to one side and keep it out of the way. Me and my partner would need to plan on using condoms just in case I got pregnant in the other one,” she says.

Joined by her nutritionist Heather Bauer, the Emmy-winning talk show host is dedicating tomorrow’s show to sharing step-by-step tips on her healthy new lifestyle and challenging fans to get in shape.

“This is not a diet, I do not believe in diets. I have been on diets in the past and they are a bunch of bologna, this is a lifestyle change,” she declares in a promo for Wednesday show.. “It’s not about being skinny; it’s about getting in the best shape that you can be. This is a ‘Tyra Show’ movement. If I can do it and I love to lay up and not work out, and I love me some BBQ ribs and some ice cream and some Haagen Daaz, if I can do this, you can do this and still eat what you want, just not every second. It is time to get your shape in shape!”

Tyra maintains her “34DD boobies and her round booty.”

Will the comedy legend be lending his fashion sense to the catwalk mavens? Not quite. According to E!’s Kristin Dos Santos, Eddie will be in the house to cheer on Bria, who will appear with the Top Model finalists in the show. Here’s a picture of the 19-year-old beauty at a recent event in Los Angeles with her ex-model mom Nicole Murphy.

Tyra Banks is Keeping Up With The Kardashians this Halloween. Kourtney and Khloe? Check. Butt Implants? Check. Sex Tape With Brandy’s Brother? Double Check. The catwalk-killer-turned-daytime diva channels Kim K, America’s favorite HOdashian, for The Tyra Bank Show’s annual Halloween Special, airing this Friday.

What do you think guys? Is she killing that dress or what?

Biracial models? As in Blackface on White Chicks? Why do I have a feeling this is going to be $hit?

ANTM airs tonight @ 8PM on The CW.

Safe For Work, Not Safe While Eating….

Why can’t she just expose cheaters and do paternity tests like Maury?

The experience was a hair-raising one for Tyra, who went through a record six hair changes during filming for her guest spot back in August.

“The people at Gossip Girl tell me I set a Gossip Girl hair change record. I had SEVEN hair changes, every single scene you see is some new hair on my head,” Tyra tells PEOPLE.

This week’s Gossip features Tyra as the fictional Ursula Nyquist, an award-winning actress playing stage legend Josephine Baker in an Oscar-worthy movie about the French Resistance during World War II.

Despite wife Robin’s attempts to console him, Phil was livid when The Tyra Banks Show edged for the Best Informative Talk Show prize, The National Enquirer reports in its Sept. 21 issue.
“Dr. Phil was upset,” says an eyewitness, who was on hand for the self-help guru’s backstage meltdown. “He thought he was a shoo-in to win….It seems like his best days are behind him.”

In fact, Phil was so furious, he refused his stunning competitor’s offer of a hug.

“After Tyra won, she walked over to give him a hug backstage, but he turned around and stalked off,” tattles the tipster. But with two Emmy wins to her credit, the lacefront-rockin’ diva– who also host The CW’s America’s Next Top Model — was not about to let Dr. Sourpuss spoil her evening. With a flip of her hair, “she leaned over to a pal, rolled her eyes, and said, ‘Whatever.’”

Dr. Phil, an Oprah protege, has helmed The Dr. Phil Show through the Queen of Talk’s Harpo Productions Company since the Fall of 2002. He’s never won an Emmy Award despite multiple nominations over the past several years. Dr. Phil earned Best Host nods in 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2007. The Dr. Phil Show was nominated for Best Informative Talk Show in 2007, 2008, and 2009.
