Tyra Banks channels Audrey Hepburn in the latest issue of Vanity Fair. Its nice to see her in pictures that are not severly airbrushed, but of her course none of pictures she take are ever airbrushed.
Anyway, Tyra speaks on so mnay things in the issue…as always. She confesses she is single and worth 18 million dollars (yet she’s ashamed to tell people that…HA), how Oprah is her “mama”, and how she use to invite ANTM contestants over her apartment for “girl time” during the seasons.


She really does look pretty.
I have always liked Tyra’s charisma she can model her ass off.However, I am starting to grow bored of her ANTM show now it is getting so corny now and predictable.I also am not feeling her talk show.But, she is an ambitious Sag like myself and doing her thing so I can’t knock her for that.
18 million thats it?! I guess thats wut u get when your shows are on UPN(Under Paid Negroes). But its still a lot more than I have right now so…
OH GOODNESS
i’m over tyra next
but good to see a black woman in a positive light congrats tyra
I respect Tyra…She looks a lot like Naomi in that first pic! And there’s a touch a Bey in the last one.
Big ups to Tyra. I can honestly saw I used to not like her. I didnt like her…her forehead…nothing. I dont even know the reason why I didnt, I was just turned off by her somehow. Ever since ANTM I truly like her now and thinks she is a positive example for anyone ambitious. She is doing her THING and aside from the cheddah she’s bringing home, she seems down to earth which is hard as hell in that industry. Much respect. Also taught me not the be so quick to judge. lol
I agree with 3. 18 million. As she being the top model that everyone wanted back in the day lol ok..and her talk shows and the top model show. I would thought at least 30 or 50. I guess she aint as big as folks think,with her face all everywhere.
dam this bitch copying off of beyonce once again.
RESPECT is due even for the MESS top model has turned into.
@3, I wish I could get atleast 1 million, most models have less than that!
…that’s why they marry football players and musicians, cuz they want to live as glamorous as people “think” they are. That’s pretty good for someone doing her own thing. Also she’s only been having her sows for about 3 yrs or so, before that, what else did she do? That’s pretty good.
again, SEXY AS HELL!! and BUMP that she copies Beyonce shit
oooh and she’s on UPN!! don’t get money money, actor’s get a multi-million a pic, they get hundred grand a catwalk
I am really feelin her crazy ass nowadays. I think her show is pretty interesting when I can catch…
what time DOES her show come on?
(cricket, cricket cricket)
Ohhh How cute!!!
I love the Breakfast at B.A.T Theme!
Tyra did her damn thing on this shoot!
She annoys the shit out of me, but I still respect her “gangster” (if you will)
18 Mil is a lot considering that models don’t make that much money. You gotta understand that usually celebs get the big money advertising campaigns for clothing while models get paid whatever modeling rate is proposed. Celebs get the big money contracts because they have the fame to back up their face and even then its not really a lot of money. A select few supermodels have more cash than Tyra because they were working before Tyra and still working today, but in the long run Tyra will come on top with her production company.
I don’t think that UPN/CW is playing Tyra though. Hate it or love it, the ANTM show has singlehandedly saved UPN. But, its only been on for four years and only cycle 1 has been put out on DVD. I don’t think the first cycle did well on dvd neither. But I think she will easily triple her net worth within the next five years with the success of her talk show and her reality show.
Her hosting skills may not be the best, but at least she is trying to be animated. She is not afraid to make a fool of herself, as we seen many times. I just want to know what this crazy heffa is going to go undercover as next.
The best move she can make is pullin an Oprah and completely and soley owning her own production company. I think she still has a business partner or two with their hands in the cookie jar. When she is the sole owner, Tyra will really make BANK.
Somehow I don’t care about all the dumb shit that fly’s out of her mouth. She seems like the kind of girl that I could be silly with and love to death.
Let me quit…I’m sounding a bit stalker-ish…..
TYRA is coo now but she be lookin hella meaty on top model in them TIGHT ASS SPANDEX DRESSES she be tryna pull off. ALSO her show Has a CONSTANT DRAG THEME wit her SILLY ASS DRESSIN UP AS DIFFERENT PEOPLE EVERY MOTHA FUCKIN DAY
WOW..TYRA looks amazing.
Tyra looks fine as hell and 18 million is alot of money… and best belive she’ll probably be getting more since her talk show got renewed for 2 more seasons I heard and top model is here to stay
HER ARMS ARE WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY THICKER THAN THAT
18m? for someone who has been in the limelight for years? wow that is pretty small. She is popular but she isnt as rich as I thought. with time she would make it. You dont make it in 2minutes. It takes time.I dont like how she is putting her business all out. we dont need to hear it from her. She looks nice in those pictures.love the first!
Tyra looks great here but I still think she looks more nd more like a drag queen on antm w/ all those humungous weaves and heavy makeup! She’s taking her obssession with them too far!

Im not a Tyra stan but I just don’t get that statement.Why was it need and what was the point? Did you just feel like bringing in B’s name in a post that had nothing to do with her just b/c?
How is she copying beyonce.You are talking about the Breakfast at Tiffany’s photoshoot? Cuz if you are God knows how many celebs have done a Breakfast at Tiffany’s themed shoot over the years. Hell Natalie Portman did a BAT’s shoot a few months ago. I guess she was swagger jacking B too?
Tyra was on the scene long before B came on the scene and did her first ass bounce.
Somehow B always ends up being mentioned in a post that has nothing to do with her. So please tell me how Tyra is swagger jacking B. I really would like to know
I don’t believe that’s all Tyra is worth. Next. She’s looking good though.
This celebs kill me with that photoshop mess. i still respect her tho
#3:
Your interpretation of UPN is HILARIOUS.
I’m with you. I thought she was worth much more. She’d been modeling for years, had contracts with major companies, and has her own empire. She’s a self-proclaimed cheapskate so $18 million seems rather low.
ONLY 18 million, Tyra? Yo ass is broke, lol. She looks stunning!
That last picture reminds me of some Beyonce House of Dereon ad, though. They’re both amazing women.
Beyonce name comes up in every post huh?! damn…anywho Tyra looks good, these pics remind me of her in the 90′s.
I have to say that I am surprised that she’s only worth 18 Million, but hey that’s more than i’m worth, so get it girl! Tyra is FAB, but she be pissing me off on ANTM with some of the people she be kicking off, and some of those winners she be having. And I could tell that Oprah is one of her biggest insperations when it comes to the talk show world, cause she tries her hardest to imitate her. So what ev….

To “Yeaboy”…..
Ya’ll STANs will stop at nothing to bring up Beyonce’s name won’t you?! The only thing those two have in common are their LACEFRONTS, and ya’ll still find a way to bring her name up. If ya’ll don’t give that girls name a REST in 2007! DAMN, now ya’ll got me fired up! I’m just tired….(walks off SMH and rolling the HELL out my eyes).
And that comment is to #6 and #29 also….ENOUGH!!!
What the f%!k are yall talking about?
Beyonce dont even look like Beyonce.
she’s not original at all.
she channels everyone from J Lo to Blu Cantrel (on her first solo album) to Mary J. Blige.
WE REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT BEYONCE WOULD REALLY LOOK LIKE HAD SHE NOT HAVE BEEN SUCH A NOTORIOUS BITER.
I’m tired of yall thinking Beyonce is original-
DAMN-
Tyra looks great and she’s a legend in modeling behind Iman, Beverly Johnson and Naomi Cambell.
funny how you ridicule her 18 million dollar new worth when none of you probably have never seen a million dollars. I like tyra because she manages to be a down to earth person and shes gorgeous ..I like her talk show and I’m a guy….I dont watch it religiously but it is a good show and nice to see a young sophisticated sista doing her thing to make it in the world.
TYRA LOOKS BEAUTIFUL
I saw a clip of the on ET or E! or something and its 18 mil per year. Not that 18 mil net is bad either
Im not knocking her 18mil I’m just saying that 18mil seems a bit low for someone who does as much as she does and for as long as shes been doing it. #37 18mil/year makes a whole lot more sense. And sorry #28 I took the UPN thing from Chris Rock. But its still funny lol.
Nice pics!
awww i luv trya!!!
I’d figured she’s be worth WAAAAY more.
I’ve always loved Audrey Hepburn and the movie, Breakfast At Tiffany’s…one of my favs in my DVD collection.
Tyra looks absolutely fab-U in these pics. She does Hepburn justice in her rendetion…classic, stylish, timeless.
either she’s underestimating or these other chicks and their stans are lying cause she’s on forbes richest 100 celebrities. she’s 1 of 3 non white women. oprah at 2; jlo at 59; and tyra at 80.
lol @ copying bey. these stans are too delusional to see that this has always been tyra’s look and maybe it is the beyawnsay that copies all these styles. i suppose boringsay invented the model walk she does in crazy in love and not straight jacked it from tyra’s shows…whateva
Wow, ok Tyra!
Someone please tell me how she is copying Beyonce?? Last I remembered, TYRA was around way before we even thought of a Beyonce….so makes me wonder who is actually copying who?
18 million never would have guessed it go ahead Tyra
I like Tyra. I think she’s beautiful…she actually used to be my crush when I was at university. I read somehwree that there is a sex tape of her circulating on the net……I wonder how true that is. I wouldn’t mind seeing that, no the uninteresting Paris one.
If she had said $180 million yall would be like “she lying” …
Annyway, her entire head takes up that first picture. Bet they had to photshop the page from 8×11 to 11×20. Love your swagger though girl…
Tyra looks great in these pics and I like Top Model. Am I the only one? She seems down to earth. Don’t watch the talk show tho’. Love Tyra !!
Tyra gets on my nerves, but these are some great pics…
18 million is really good, unfortunately, coke-head Kate Moss is worth like 50 million…that shyt really pisses me off and I don’t even care for Tyra!
I don’t understand why Tyra is pretty-much positive, has modeling and tv…but Kate’s ass is worth more! Thats crazy!
I’M SO FICKLE ABOUT TYRA! I am over her though. She annoys me with her “girlfriend” acts! She’s the kind of friend that tries to control every thing. She is so naracisitic and she thihnks that what she does the world should follow. No, honey….that would be OPrah! And Oprah has no kids!
Bey stans please STFU, and stay on topic!!!
I love the first one, She’s still a beautiful woman

She’s triflin and her voice makes me want to give myself an enema but *gasps* these photos do look nice…
WOW! I thought Tyra would’ve been worth more as well. She has had TONS of contracts. In 2004-2006, homegirl was on the grind! Did yall see the GORGEOUS photoshoot for Pearl Vision or one of those eyeglass places. OMG! That shoot took my breath away!
I’m like the other posts, guess UPN is paying peanuts!I don’t even watch ANTM anymore. Got bored after cycle 4. Next!
Tyra is doing her thang. This sister is beautiful, intelligent and genial. She’s doing well post her modeling career. Being worth 18 million sounds like a dream to me.
Tyra looks really natural and elegant in these pictures.
I hope she sticks to a look like this.
Because those gay makeup artists and hairdressers of hers usually have her looking like a DRAG QUEEN with all that make up and weave.
When you are nice looking woman anyway you don’t need all that.
Less is definitely more.
she really pulled the audbrey hepburn look off. why can’t she look this great everywhere. she’s been slackin’ everywhere else. wow only 18 million??? i thought top models pulled in a lot more than that!!! oh well…
good. i lke tyra a lot. i le her personality. she doesn’t seem stuck up at all and shs beautiful.
