When did Sesame Street become Bourbon Street? Cookie Monster finally has found something he may love more than cookies: Tyra Banks bum. At a recent taping of the “Tyra Banks Show,” the wily blue puppet’s bulging eyes seemed to get even bigger when he fondled Tyra’s rear end. This occurred moments after the “innocent” Elmo tried to bite Tyra on the neck, perhaps in an attempt to give a hickey as a show of adoration?
Will this lead to a Tyra Banks, Cookie Monster, and Elmo love triangle? Will this love affair take some of the heat off of Tiger Woods affairs? (He wishes!) Well, if you ever see a blue supermodel walking around New York or show up in next season’s “America’s Top Model,” don’t be surprised.
So did it actually happen? Or is it just another product of the rumor mill? According to the Daily News, a rep for the show stated that the situation was misconcieved, “He did not touch [Tyra Banks] behind. It just the angle of the photo.”

Supermodel Cindy Crawford is 43 now, married with two kids, but she hopes people will still think she’s sexy. She said: “I don’t want to be a cougar, I want to be a MILF. I hate that word cougar and what it represents. MILF is a word I absolutely love. I like that tag because I think there is a worry for all models that the moment you have kids the perception of you is going to change.”
Something tells us she doesn’t have anything to worry about there. Still, Cindy says her personality has been affected by the aging process and doesn’t believe people find her as attractive as they once did.
She said in an interview with Britain’s GQ magazine: “Age can be daunting, but you can’t stop it. I know 20-year-old guys don’t look at me anymore. I don’t feel it like I used to. I remember walking down streets in New York at the height of my modeling career, my hair up, and all the construction guys would go crazy. It’s different now.”

Though she continued flying into her eighth month of pregnancy, Gisele Bündchen has put on hold the exam she needs to become a helicopter pilot until next year, so she can prepare for her new arrival, a friend of hers tells PEOPLE.
“She has stopped with her lessons. She stopped before Thanksgiving,” says Keith Douglass, president of Shoreline Aviation, which provided the model with her copter lessons. “She’s waiting to have the baby and then she’s going to start up when things settle down again.”
Bündchen, 29, who passed the required written exam last month, only had her in-flight test left to go before she would become a pilot, but Douglass says she didn’t mind putting her aviation dreams on a brief hold. “She took it in stride,” he says. “She pretty much knew she would have to stop when she got close to her due date.”
Now, “she’ll have to review when she starts again. But it got to be time to take a break. She’ll probably start again in January. She can’t wait to take her family for a ride in the helicopter.”
In the meantime, she’s been busy preparing for her new baby, while husband Tom Brady, 32, finishes up his season with the New England Patriots.
“She is taking some time to get ready to have a family,” says Douglass. That includes decorating a nursery in neutral colors like yellow and green at the couple’s Boston condominium. (The supermodel has said she doesn’t want to know the sex of the baby – even though her husband is already aware.)

Amber Le Bon wants to become a fashion photographer.
The model – the daughter of supermodel Yasmin and Duran Duran singer Simon Le Bon – understands she won’t be able to make money from her looks forever and will embark on a career behind the camera when she grows older.
“I know modeling is not a lifelong career, and because I so love taking pictures of people I think my future is going to be as a photographer.”
The 20-year-old beauty – who has previously modeled for Moschino and British store River Island – hasn’t started working on her camera skills yet but is certain she has already picked up some vital tips through her work in the fashion industry: “I am learning a lot about the work on the other side of the camera. I am constantly getting practical experience, although I haven’t studied it technically.”
Earlier this year, it was revealed Amber’s British Iranian model mother Yasmin would launch her own fashion line. The 45-year-old beauty will be teaming with British store Wallis to launch her first clothing and jewelery collection YLB.

SHE might be approaching forty, but Naomi Campbell’s famous fiery temper still shows no sign of waning!
According to a report in the New York Post newspaper, the British supermodel showed up to a charity auction — Art Basel in Miami — and refused to have her photograph taken.
“She was pretty rude, didn’t bid on anything, and spent the whole time clinging to her boyfriend,” a source said.
“Who shows up to a charity event with a bodyguard?”
Naomi finished her evening by getting into an argument with a younger woman at The Wall nightclub in the W hotel. Some things never change!
Meanwhile, it has been claimed that Naomi is planing to start a family with her Russian billionaire beau Vladislav Doronin.
“Naomi knows her biological clock is ticking,” a source told UK newspaper the Sunday Mirror. “She realizes that she’s got to get a move on if she wants to have children — the time is now.”

KATE Moss always gets what she wants!
The British supermodel apparently took such a liking to a bracelet she spotted at a recent London wedding that she bought it — off socialite Ann Dexter-Jones‘ wrist!
“She was so crazy to wear it,” Dexter-Jones told the New York Post.
Moss’ pal, billionaire Topshop boss Philip Green, “insisted Kate have it immediately and bought it for her right off my wrist,” Ann added.
“And [Moss] gave me her Chanel bracelet as a gift, so that my wrist wasn’t bare.”
Dexter-Jones designed the black onyx, black diamond, solid gold and silver bauble, as part of her new jewelry line, which debuts this weekend at The Webster during Art Basel.

While pregnant she had a bump so big that some observers thought she might have been expecting twins.
But Heidi Klum has since given birth and regained her supermodel figure within just seven weeks.
The supermodel, 36, showed off her amazing figure while filming an advertisement for German haircare manufacturers Drei Wetter Taft in Los Angeles.
She has miraculously regained her slim physique after giving birth to daughter Lou Samuel and has gone straight back to work.
The German model showed off her post-pregnancy figure on set, sporting a loose pink blouse, a tight-fitting leather skirt and a pair of killer beige heels.
In the new advert, Heidi is seen stepping out of a Porsche and shows off her curled locks withstanding a downpour.
Klum stunned observers with her post-baby body at the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2009 last month.
She strutted down the catwalk modelling lingerie, just five weeks after giving birth.
And, although she appeared her typical confident self on stage, reports say she had looked a little nervous as she was filmed waiting to hit the catwalk.
As well as her return to the catwalk, Heidi also officially changed her surname to Samuel, that of husband Seal, last month.
The move came after four years of marriage – and three children together.
Husband, Seal, was nominated for a Grammy earlier for his work on If You…

Cindy Crawford wants to be a “MILF”.
The 43-year-old supermodel – who is married to Rande Gerber – hopes people still think she’s sexy, even though she is now mother to two children, Presley, 10, and Kaia, seven.
She said: “I don’t want to be a cougar, I want to be a MILF. I hate that word cougar and what it represents. MILF is a word I absolutely love.
“I like that tag because I think there is a worry for all models that the moment you have kids the perception of you is going to change.”
A MILF is an abbreviated slang term used to describe a sexy woman who has children.
Cindy says her personality has been effected by the ageing process and doesn’t believe people find her as attractive as they once did.
She said in an interview with Britain’s GQ magazine: “Age can be daunting, but you can’t stop it. I know 20-year-old guys don’t look at me anymore. I don’t feel it like I used to.

Supermodel Karolina Kurkova gave birth to her first child, son Tobin Jack Drury, on October 29. This week, Tobin experienced his first paparazzi encounter on the streets of New York City.
Karolina and her fiancé, film producer and former actor Archie Drury, didn’t seem to mind the photo-snapping company. Both of them smiled wide for the cameras, with their son safely cradled beneath Archie’s jacket.
Kurkova and Drury have not yet announced a wedding date. Perhaps they’re just waiting until Gisele finally gives birth to her first child, so the affair can be a Victoria’s Secret Angel Reunion.
