Tyra Banks In Stalker Nightmare

Talk-show host Tyra Banks is living in fear of a hulking stalker who's been terrorizing her for months and was set free by a judge last week.

Cops finally busted the burly ex-con drifter Tuesday for allegedly stalking Banks from coast to coast, but he was released without bail - an act that has added to her anxiety.

Brady Green, 37, has hounded Banks with multiple letters and phone calls since early January, cops and prosecutors said.

He then started sending her flowers and showing up in person at her Los Angeles TV studio, they said.

The Dublin, Ga., native then took a bus to New York with the idea of visiting the studio where "The Tyra Banks Show" is taped. He arrived in the lobby at 4:23 p.m. on Tuesday, asking to speak to the former supermodel, the authorities said.

Green was carrying a large duffel bag stuffed with magazine write-ups about Banks and notes to himself about his various attempts to reach her, they said.

Tyra: you can stay at my house. You have to cook, but I'll do the dishes.

Lets just try to get along a little better. Hey I am a white guy and I would let Naomi or Tyra throw their cell phones at me. Just not real hard. I admit I have watched Tyra's talk show and find her easier on the eyes and ears than Oprahs. Sorry about the sexism, but hey I am a man.

I still have a stalker who pops up every so often, despite having gotten orders of protection. These guys are nuts. They don't care if you serve them with papers. Mine started stalking me 10 years ago. I had friends contact him to leave me alone, the police did so, nothing. The guy still sends bizarre packages containing photos he took of me at various times(not nude), thinks he is my lover. If I was Tyra, I would get body guards, big ass dogs, whatever it takes to get her creep out of her life.
I was leaving for a trip before christmas, went to get my mail, was relaxed, until I saw a familiar looking address with no name on it. I froze. I knew without opening it, it was from him. I know how Tyra feels. Its like a rape in a way. You feel like you have had your life invaded without your consent. Its miserable, and there is nothing sexy about it. Its not cool to have one, not funny, not an ego trip. Its a pain in the ass. I look over my shoulder every day praying he isn't out there spying on me. The police watch my home as what they have seen, is just horrible. Our justice system doesn't protect victims, but it protects the stalker. Until they harm us physically, nothing can be done to stop them. To my stalker, if I catch you, pray.

I'm surprised her ANTM writers are not stalking her after she failed to support them in getting decent wages and benefits. it's fine for tyra to make $18 million in a year, how much will she have to make before she supports appropriate compensation for the people that got her there?
She is a childish moron, constantly trying to upstage her talk show guests and the model contestants-none of whom have actually made it in any significant way--because like a disney villianess, tyra kicks off those whose beauty threatens her-and putting the rest through various types of humiliations meant to pass as 'entertainment' . it would be nice to see less of her stupid, oversized ass in the media--tyra is a tyrant!

Too bad she's not a republic member of the senate or dicky boy. That stalker would be in prison for life, after having been tasered.

When I read the headline, my first thought was "Who the heck is Tyra Banks stalking?"

THAT is funny! My sentiments exactly. She's crazier than any stalker could ever dream of being.

As Chief Wiggams says, 'We can't really protect you, but we can punish you.' So let this be a warning to you Tyra, don't count on the authorities to help you.
