Jay Manuel Announces Book Inspired by ‘America’s Next Top Model,’ Reveals the Real Reason He Left Show (Exclusive)
Former “America’s Next Top Model” judge Jay Manuel is penning a book inspired by his time on the hit reality show, Variety has learned exclusively.

The novel, titled, “The Wig, The Bitch & The Meltdown,” published by Wordeee, will be released this on Aug. 3.

“America’s Next Top Model” has recently been in the headlines, facing criticism for out-of-touch commentary that has not aged well with viewers calling out the show for racial insensitivity and body shaming on social media, thanks to renewed interest in “Top Model,” in light of quarantine-enhanced binging on Hulu and Amazon Prime.

Despite the resurgence of the “America’s Next Top Model” in the pop-culture zeitgeist — for better or for worse — Manuel, who spent 18 seasons on the series as the creative director, has been working on his novel since 2014.

“I never saw that coming. My novel has been in the works for quite some time, so this really is a surprise to me,

Los Angeles D.A. Declines To Charge Benny Medina For Alleged 2004 Sexual Assault
Benny Medina, the TV producer and music manager whose clients include Jennifer Lopez and formerly Will Smith and Mariah Carey, will not be charged by the Los Angeles District Attorney in an alleged 2004 sexual assault.

The case was declined by the L.A. D.A.’s entertainment sexual assault task force Friday owing to the statue of limitations, according to the charge evaluation worksheet, and that the unnamed alleged victim recently died. No other information was given in the report.

This is a different incident from one that came to light in November, when Sordid Lives: The Series actor Jason Dottley claimed in a story published in The Advocate that Medina attempted to rape him in 2008 at the producer-manager’s Los Angeles mansion. Medina, through his lawyers, denied the allegation.

Medina, who continues to work with Lopez, executive produced Smith’s The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and The Tyra Banks Show,

Inside Cynthia Nixon’s First Campaign TV Interview With Wendy Williams (Exclusive)

Inside Cynthia Nixon’s First Campaign TV Interview With Wendy Williams (Exclusive)
On Tuesday afternoon, Cynthia Nixon vowed to fight for stricter gun-control laws, stand up for black voters, and support the legalization of marijuana in her first national TV interview since declaring her candidacy for governor of New York.

But what made the interview unique wasn’t what Nixon said. It was where she said it — on “The Wendy Williams Show,” during a 13-minute conversation due to air on Wednesday.

Appearing before a crowd of several hundred women in a loft-like studio in downtown Manhattan, Nixon was game to tackle serious and light questions on a daytime program that’s better known for celebrity news and gossip.

Williams proved that she could grill a political candidate with the same ease as her dishy conversations about the Kardashians or Tiger Woods. The host asked Nixon, who starred in “Sex and the City,” about the challenges associated with taking on Andrew Cuomo, a two-term Democrat.

Tyra Banks Leaves Her Own Talk Show, FABLife, After Two Months

Tyra Banks Leaves Her Own Talk Show, FABLife, After Two Months
Tyra Banks is exiting her own daytime talk show FABLife after just two months. "This is a very difficult decision, but necessary," she tells The Hollywood Reporter, saying she'll instead be focusing on her beauty company. Banks will remain as an executive producer until December, but the lifestyle show (which debuted in September) reportedly won't replace her with another host. Other co-hosts include Chrissy Teigen, fashion editor Joe Zee, interior designer Lauren Makk, and Diy YouTuber Leah Ashley. FABLife had been billed as Banks's big return to daytime television since her Emmy-winning The Tyra Banks Show ended in 2010, but that hype will have to be short-lived. Banks, of course, is also approaching the potential end of America's Next Top Model, which may or may not see its final smize after its current cycle.
