On July 15th, MTV will air “From G’s to Gents,” a new show produced by Jamie Foxx, which takes 15 young G’s from across the country with great potential under their rough exterior and polishes them up. Hosted by Fonzworth Bentley (known for his umbrella holding days as Diddy’s personal assistant), the men will be schooled on how to lose the front, focus their passion, and market themselves. Taking lessons in everything from style and grace, etiquette, chivalry, and business skills, the men will see that with the right tools every G has the ability to find respect, realize their self-worth, and graduate from G to true Gentleman.

As E3 promised an update on Tyra Banks leaving ANTM
Retired supermodel and TV host Tyra Banks has dismissed reports she is to leave her reality show America's Next Top Model. Banks' spokesperson insists the reports are wildly inaccurate.
The representative tells Usmagazine.com: "The rumors about Tyra leaving and the fight with Jay are not true!"
The word on the curb is that Tyra Banks is set to leave America's Next Top Model to concentrate on her popular talk show. Friction with the show's co-host is being cited, by reports, as the reason for Banks' rumored departure:
OK! magazine reports that Banks isn’t getting along with photo shoot creative director Jay Manuel, and her days on the show could be numbered. “It’s gotten so bad that Tyra and Jay aren’t speaking,” an insider told OK! magazine. The selective silent treatment isn’t limited to Manuel, either. “Tyra barely interacts with the contestants and only wants to show up on judging day,” the source told the magazine.
