Super model Tyra Banks plays a prank on her reality show

Monday, 3 May 2010



Supermodel-turned-talk show host Tyra Banks shocked U.S. TV audiences on Friday, when she acted out a rabies-induced fit during her program.

Banks took the stage explaining she had been bitten by a rabid dog before the show and had received treatment for the fatal viral disease, which can cause erratic behaviour.

She explained, "I'm not 100 per cent today, I'm not feeling great. A friggin' dog bit me... I had to get rushed to the hospital and the doctors... tested me. The dog had rabies and I had to get a shot. I'm feeling a little weird but I'm OK."

The supermodel slyly sipped on an Alka-Seltzer concoction when her back was turned to the audience, and then she stunned the crowd when she dropped to the floor and began convulsing and foaming at the mouth.

But Banks admitted she was upset when no one came to her rescue during the prank, asking, "Why didn't anyone help me?"

Pooja Bedi- surrounded by 70 snakes

Friday, 4 July 2008
That is true that our bold and bubbly Pooja Bedi daughter of kabir bedi, was surrounded by snakes, but for a television reality show, yet again. I am waiting for the show to be put on air as this time its going to be our bollywood celebs doing the stunts in reality. We get to see them without make up and all they starry tantrums turned into fear! ha ha.. The host on the show is none other than our fearless tiger, Akshay Kumar..

The show is inspired by AXN's fear factor and is titled Khatron Ka Khiladi. This is India's fear factor where the game will be taken to the highest level of physical and mental challenge.

Here is what Pooja had to say about participating in the show..

"I enjoyed doing the stunts," Pooja Bedi tells us. "I had to do stunts, which I had never seen in my life before. We [the contestants] are all different personalities -- some are mothers, some are young and there is even a television bahu. All of us have worked hard and have been support system to each other during the show."

"I hate snakes. And I was surrounded by 70 snakes. I was almost dead! I screamed at the top of my voice, became hysterical and cried on television, which I have never done before. There were a few contestants, who loved the snakes and were even petting them.

"A lot of stunts were unexpected, and gave us a shock," she says. "But it was a thrilling experience before every stunt. We would always try to figure out by Akshay's costumes what the stunt would be. If he is wearing black, then we would guess it is something to do with scorpions."

Her take on Akshay shooting with the beautiful girls without make up: "He would be horrified seeing 13 actors without make-up!" she laughed. "Everyday we would put nice make-up. But with one stunt in the water, and all our make-up vanished.

"We were very scared but Akshay was encouraging," she continued. "Everyone has seen the actor in Akshay, now they will get to see the real him. He is the ultimate action guru when it comes to performing these death-defying stunts. He was fun, motivating and a great learning experience to work with."

"I want the next season of Fear Factor to be in 3D format because the audience should experience the fear that we go through when the stunt is done from a height," she adds.

Other contestants on show will be Aditi Govitrikar, Yaana Gupta, Sonali Kulkrani, Pooja Bedi, Anita Hassannandani, Tapur Chatterjee, Tupur Chatterjee, Meghna Naidu, Anjana Sukhani, Diptannita Sharma, Nethra Raghuraman, Vidaya Malvade and Urvashi Sharma.
