An “overzealous fan” has been ordered to attend an anti-stalking school after being convicted of harassing Tyra Banks.

New York Judge James Burke sentenced Brady Green, 39, to one-year probation for his hounding of the model turned talk-show host.

Green was ordered to stay away from Banks for two years and to attend a stalking-modification program at John Jay College called Project SHARP – short for Stopping Harassment and Relationship Problems.

The Georgia man thought he had a relationship with the outspoken model, and he tried to track her down in January 2008 with repeated phone calls to her show’s offices.

He later got the address and was arrested inside the studio, where he had sneaked in after twice being told to leave.

He was convicted of stalking earlier this year, with Banks as the star witness.

America’s Next Top Model host Tyra Banks will soon face the man accused of stalking her.

Banks, 35, will testify against Brady Green, 38, who is on trial for stalking and harassing her.

He had reportedly been following Banks since January 2008 and was arrested near the building where the star records The Tyra Banks Show in Manhattan.

Green reportedly told police, according to RadarOnline: “I know her. She knows me. We’re good friends.”

He then reportedly said he had come by bus from Los Angeles to see Banks.

Court papers reportedly quote Green as saying: “We had a thing together.”

He reportedly added: “I sent her flowers. I sent her cards. Should I plead no contest? I’ve got satellites watching me and recording us.”

Green is said to have pleaded not guilty to the charges of stalking, harassment and criminal trespass and could face up to 90 days in jail if he is convicted.

Is Tyra Banks getting married?

J. Alexander, judge of America’s Next Top Model, does not think so. And even if wedding bells are in the works Banks would definitely get a nice beating from Miss J if she does get married without inviting Alexander to the wedding. However, Miss J said his head is too busy he can’t start figuring out Banks’ head. He said he is working with Banks but do not really discuss these things with her. He is however sure there will be a big fight if he misses the wedding because no invitation was sent to him. Miss J however said Banks, who is dating investment banker John Untendahl from new York, is already married but to her work.

Banks made it to the 25 Most Stylish New Yorkers list released by Us Weekly. Banks is set to host the event when they get honored in a Big Apple big bash. The others who made it to the list are Kelly Ripa, John Legend, Christian Siriano of Project Runway, designer Patrick Robinson, Becki Newton of Ugly Betty, Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, Sean Avery, Jessica Szohr of Gossip Girl, and Tommy Hilfiger among others. The 34-year old Banks, who posed as Michelle Obama with a Barack Obama look-alike in Harper’s Bazaar September issue, said Obama couldn’t have made it without his wife. She said the new President is an inspiration to a lot of people especially the minority.
