Tyra Banks
She retired from modeling in 2005. She was a known Victoria Secret Model and one of the most popular African-American models. Now she has her own TV show and the Media and people in general are making a HUGE deal about her weight gain. She has been always very skinny and like she said, she made millions out of it...now that she is not in the business anymore, why is she expected to continue having a model figure?

| As for how Banks feels about her own 5'10" body - which she says is at 161 lbs. these days, about 30 lbs. heavier than when she landed on the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue in 1997 - she says: "I still feel hot, but every day is different. It's when I put on the jeans that used to fit a year ago and don't fit now and give me the muffin top, that's when I say, 'darn!' " In other words, yes: She has put on weight, though not nearly as much as those recent tabloid stories suggested. (Banks believes the pix were snapped at an unflattering angle.) "She has a very womanly, gorgeous body that goes up and down," says her good friend Heidi Klum. In fact, Banks says that since she retired from modeling in 2005, the number on the scale has fluctuated from 148 lbs. to 162 lbs., depending on how well she is taking care of herself. "I feel more comfortable when I'm lighter - I sleep better, I snore less, I have more endurance when I work out, my arms look better," she admits. Still, she isn't freaking out about wearing size 32-waist jeans or about "the fat roll" she claims to have on her back. (Her biggest source of figure angst is her size-DD breasts, which she says make it hard to find clothes that fit: "I would love for them to be a size and a half smaller.") But, she adds, "I've made millions of dollars with the body I have, so where's the pain in that? If I was in pain, I would have dieted. The pain is not there - the pain is someone printing a picture of me and saying those (horrible) things."... |

It is a shame that she has no privacy in her life. Yes she put on weight well who wouldn't? Her whole life was weight watching and exercise to keep her portions to the perceived perfection of the general population who is still more out of shape then she will likely ever be.
I noted most is leg and bottom end gain...me thinks the carbs are liking her as much as she them. She always had well defined well muscled body so add any fat and it shows fast! I say let her be! I think she is still great looking and bet any man would be glad to have a chance to meet and get to know her.
Besides from her comment I think she is well aware of her health and how she feels and would bet we will see her slim down a bit in the near future just because she hates snoring and having a bad sleep.

If she wants to get fat that of course is her decision, however I have been seeing her on her show: "Tyra" and she is getting bigger and bigger. She needs to watch it because it is no longer about cosmetics, but health.

JB, those are old shows you are watching. She seemed to have lost all the weight. It seems like she DOES care about her weight despite saying she doesn't:

Oh, well I am glad she got back to her weight. In each episode she did mention how big she was or how much she likes to eat. I think years of starving to be a super model had its toll and she was making up for it. One thing she does need to do is get some muscularity. She is incredibly weak and prone to put on weight so working out will give her the tone and firmness she is looking for.

I like Tyra's personality but her show is a bit raunchy for my taste with all that talk about the bedroom.

Tyra TV episodes are getting hmmm....quite weird. Monday's show will be dedicated to female genitalia.

| NEW YORK - Tyra Banks will devote her entire talk show Monday to discussing the vagina, People.com reports. "I have wanted to do this show for two years," said Banks, 33. "I know for a lot of women talking about what is going on in our bodies is extremely difficult, but it is incredibly important." "We should be able to talk to our daughters, sisters, mothers and friends about our bodies and not be embarrassed. I hope after this show women will not be ashamed about what's up down there," she added... |
