Tyra Talks WEIGHT GAIN
Tyra Banks is People Magazine’s covergirl this week, fighting back against the tabloids for mocking her after gaining 30 pounds. The ex-model is happy with her post-model size and claims, “If I had lower self-esteem, I would probably be starving myself right now.” At 5′10″, 161 lbs., and with “all the self-esteem installed in me, the criticism still hurts.” Check out the full article below!

one more thing …
Every photograph in magazines, or what have you, is airbrushed you dumb ba*tards. It’s called tricks of the trade. Not to mention that with professional photography there are many a filtered lenses to also enhance photo’s. It’s not one of the cheap $10 disposable cameras your critical broke selves might be used to.
If the photo’s were never edited they wouldnt sell as many copies of their issue due to all the self righteous and critical people around the world who have nothing better to do then live vicariously through celebrity lives. “Normal,” “ugly” or fat people just don’t make for good business in this society.
Tyra is the hottest and coolest celeb ever!!!!
She is the only women in the fashion industry to try and change the idea that sickly thin models are the “beautiful people.” 161 …sure she could be more but it is better than starving herself. She looks healthy and she should be proud of it!
First, all of you people who talk sh** about her being airbrushed need to get a reality check. Did you ever bother to think that she didn’t want to be airbrushed? No, I don’t think so. If she models for someone 99% of the time she has no say if they airbrush or digitally fix her photos. So she IS proud of her weight/looks regardless of what you brainless morons think.
Second, to the girl natasha, so what if she got a boob job. If she felt her curves didn’t look right and did a little something about it then good for her. It was her F***ing job to model and if she wants some bigger boobs to help her with that so what? It’s not like she she went over board with it like some people.
Third, this mainly goes to magnus. You are the “useless hog”. You are the reason there are girls out their dying from anorexia and bulimia. From the sounds of it you are one of those psychologically messed up people with an eating disorder. And you know what, it ain’t that big of a deal that you think she’s fat the problem is you think she ugly. Not just on the outside but the inside to. How can someone who devotes a part of her life to helping people out there with eating disorders and trying to be a role model, not just a “model”, but a role model for all the girls out there who really need help, how can someone like that be ugly huh? answer me that.
Tyra Banks is one of the most beautiful people on the face of the planet. Even if you don’t think she’s pretty on the outside which is fine because “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder” but you don’t need eyes to see that she is beautiful on the inside.
I say if she wants to be a true role-model, there’s no need to reinforce excuses women make to eating right and getting in shape. There are enough of those to fill 10 seasons of Tyra shows. If you want a little honesty, tell the 230 lb women that they’re out of shape and give them a real diet and exercise regimen that works.
Nobody’s criticizing anyone because they’re not a size 0. Last time I checked, Nicole Ritchie gets slammed even more for looking like Skeletor. Nobody’s saying starve yourself. Drop the excuses and do what you need to do to look and feel healthy. Or don’t, and whine about being a victim of society while slurping down a carton of Rocky Road. It’s up to you.

Hi, all banks is here ! - http://grahambeswicke918.tripod.com/bank.html
Yea, it is a shame that Tyra can’t be for real. She had a boob job, wears a weave, dons fake fingernails and tons of makeup. I guess because of the boob job she feels that she can let it all hang out. She’s living her own reality and real believes that she is a natural curvy beauty. Not!
