Banks asks Hilton to stop writing about minors2009-09-08

TV talk show host Tyra Banks made Perez Hilton promise to stop writing derogatory stories about underage stars just days before Demi Moore chastised the celebrity blogger for targeting her daughter Tallulah.

Moore lashed out at Hilton last week over a set of "inappropriate" pictures of her 15-year-old daughter, accusing him of "exploiting" teenagers. Moore claimed the shots of the youngster, wearing a low-cut top and a revealing pair of shorts, compared to "child pornography" and called Hilton a "pervert."

It has now been revealed that just days before Moore's outburst, the gossip king filmed an episode of Banks' self-titled TV show where the former model made him vow to stop bad-mouthing stars under the age of 18.

In the show, recorded on August 18, Banks tells Hilton, "When you're a kid, especially the kid of a celebrity, I don't feel they should be put in the public in a way to be made fun of. I feel they should be protected."

Moore asked Hilton to rein in his gossip for a year, but the pair compromised with a six-month deal in return for Hilton being offered a guest role on Banks' other show "America's Next Top Model."
