"Carnie Wilson and Embracing Your Big Fat Ass"


Tyra speaks with women who are learning to embrace their bodies -- even though they are not a size zero. First she speaks with singer Carnie Wilson, who after years of battling her weight in the public eye, underwent gastric bypass surgery. Carnie talks about the hurtful comments made after she gained weight during her pregnancy -- and what it feels like to be hounded by the tabloids. Tyra then speaks with two women who have embraced their extra-large derrieres and turned them into moneymaking machines. Plus, the authors of “Embracing Your Big Fat Ass,” encourage two viewers who are self-conscious about their backsides to show off their bodies in a unique way. Tyra also talks with Chloe Marshall, a woman who is making international headlines by becoming the first plus-sized woman in British history to earn a coveted spot in the Miss England pageant, and then a former beauty pageant contestant who dropped out after she was ridiculed on message boards because of her full figure.

"Sex in Schools"


Tyra spends the hour speaking with high school students on the prevalence of sex on campus. The teens are extremely candid about why they have sex in the classroom, the library and anywhere else they find risky. She speaks to a young man (and his mother) who admits to receiving oral sex from a girl at school. Then a young lesbian reveals to her sister that she has sex with her girlfriends on campus. One girl admits she had to be home-schooled after her promiscuous behavior ruined her reputation and infected her with an STD. She warns Tyra’s viewers on the dangers of rushing into sex. Tyra gives the teens who are not having sex the opportunity to express their feelings of disapproval about their schoolmates’ behavior. Dr. Garry Corgiat is on hand to offer insight and advice to the teens -- and talk about consequences.

Tyra sits down with actors Ben Stiller and Jack Black, the stars of “Tropic Thunder,” a new action-comedy film about a group of spoiled, egotistical actors who are shooting a Vietnam War movie and find themselves in the middle of a real war. Ben talks about his inspiration for the movie, shares stories about his co-stars and discusses the controversy over fellow co-star Robert Downey Jr.’s role as an African-American. Viewers are also treated to a sneak peek at Tyra’s part in the film.

"The Princess Life"

Tyra sits down with actress Tori Spelling to discuss her autobiography, “sTORI Telling,” in which she opens up about infidelity in her first marriage, and how she feels slighted that her multi-millionaire father left her a only small inheritance… plus the tumultuous relationship she has with her mother -- and how it’s been played out in the press. Tori stays on to offer insight as Tyra speaks to families who spend enormous amounts of money and throw elaborate parties for their children -- to discuss if they’re setting up their kids for failure. Tyra also speaks with two stylists who are paid hundreds of dollars just to dress children. Watch as they dress their clients in high-end clothing for a mother/daughter fashion show!
