America’s Next Top Model judge Miss J Alexander talked to MTV this week about his long career, his time on ANTM and more. He admits he knows the show is crazy, but he just goes with the flow.
“Look at me at panel,” he said of “America’s Next Top Model.” “I look crazy, don’t I? That’s how I keep it fresh. I mean, I’m battling Nigel [Barker]’s good looks. Jay Manuel’s prettiness, cause he’s so pretty. And Tyra Bank’s is just drag. She’s just larger, larger than life. So I’m just competing with myself, basically.”

Miss J Alexander finally confirms the long-standing rumor that he is a father in his new book Follow the Model. J stopped by The Tyra Banks Show on Tuesday to talk about his book, fatherhood and more.
“I’m a dad,” he told Tyra. J and his ex-boyfriend Alex both acted as sperm donors and both are equally active in the child’s life.

US Magazine crashed the Oxygen America’s Next Top Model: Obsessed party last week and chatted with all the former competitors and current judges. One of the weirder questions they asked was whether this was the year that Tyra Banks would make it down the aisle with businessman boyfriend John Utendahl. The two have been dating quietly for several years. Tyra has never publicly talked about the relationship, though the two have been photographed together several times.
Miss J appears to respect that privacy. US asked the runway coach to confirm the relationship and he refused, claiming all he knows is …read more

Halloween is tonight and I thought I’d celebrate by imagining the greatest costume pairing ever: the Js from America’s Next Top Model. I think these costumes would work best if you dressed up with a friend. A a loud girl with a giant weave and an ugly dress and you could go as a trio.
Jay Manuel costume:

1) Silver hair dye
2) Shiny blazer in an ugly color or a too-tight metallic shirt
3) A rock tee you think is ironic, but in actuality, makes no sense
4) Go get spray tanned. Like ten times. The optimal color is the …read more

At each location, the Js will select five lucky ladies who will receive “Top Model style overhauls” and will learn everything from how to dress, how to talk, how to walk and more. It sounds a lot like beauty school.
CW has only approved a pilot, but it seems like Operation …read more

E! Online caught up with the Js a few days ago and both agreed: the winner of this cycle of America’s Next Top Model is obvious.

“I called the winner of this cycle on day one,” Jay Manuel claimed. “I knew it.”
“We both did,” Miss J chimed in. “We both knew who would win right away. It was obvious!”
If it’s that obvious, the editors are doing a pretty good job of concealing that fact from me! I was surprised that Clark was called first last night, so I seriously doubt I can peg the winner. …read more
