Tyra’s thick. Like this is news to anyone. And Tyra, SUCK IT UP!!! Next…

just cause she aint a stick dont mean she fat she just thick she actually looks better!she a lamo!

Idk if that bathing suit pic is photoshopped or wut but she looks chubby. Not fat but chubby. The pic in the red is much better.

Tyra’s not fat but it wouldn’t hurt to hit the gym and tone up a bit……stomach rolls ain’t cute. Tyra even admitted that when she’s skinnier she’s more compfortable, she snores less, she sleeps better, and she has more endurance when she works out.

Yeah she got big, but she doesn’t look bad. I mean, damn!

Well I dont see how the pics were unflattering of her. I think she looks great. You dont have to be a damn size two to be beautiful. THe average size of a woman is 12/14. So when we see women that size we need to stop looking at them and then saying damn she’s fat or sumthin like that. That is why so many people have eating disorders. Their raised to think that anything aboive a size 4 is fat and unpretty. We as people really need to stop it.

Do You Think Tyra Is Fat? LMFAO! No, not really.

That red bathing suit is not flattering on her at all, but I don’t think she’s fat. In my opinion, she was at her best weight when she first started filming America’s Next Top Model..

i dont think shes fat in the pink (look like she got a penis tho)……..but that because they airbrushed that picture …….. yes she looks fat in that black thing and she looks unhealthy ……… and evryone trying to take up for her need to STOP cus it is not normal for people to look like that and if they do look like that they need to at least put some clothes on !

love that red swimsuit, anyone know where I can find something similar?

There is absolutely NOTHING fat about Tyra. I think Hollyweird has everyone so twisted. If you aren’t a size 0 then you’re fat. It’s sick.

i love how tyra is not afraid to admit that she got bigger and how she let them put her weight on the cover, many women would never say how much they weigh, even though her body has changed a bit she still feels hot, and that makes her very sexy. i love tyra. =)

I think Tyra looks cute thick. Black women were meant to have curves any way. Do yo thang Miss Banks!!

She looks nice not fat and not slim. Thas the size a woman shuld be at not a damn size 1. Wtf is size 1? Real women keeps real figures n i like tyra for keepin it real. You go girl.

This is what the industry thinks is fat. I hate to think about what they think is too thin. She looks great. What changed again?

Unfortunately Tyra Banks will not be excepted to be anything but perfect because she used to be a model and in those days she was alot smaller. So the public is expecting her to stay the way they are used to seeing her! But to be honest I think it is b******t if they think she is going to live by those standards after she retired from modeling. Go head Tyra do you girl! Let the Haters hate!

The way the medias reacting you would think she was so fat she could make Toccara look like she need a sandwich!

She just looks so damn frumpy, not necessarily FAT!
She’s 33–not 53.
And those Golden Girls bathing suits she insists on aren’t helping.
This woman’s never had a child– I can’t imagine what she’d look like if she did.
Those new pics of her are a photoshopped lie.
The paparrazi “surprise” shots are the real deal.

no i don’t thinks she’s fat, 161 lbs. is ok for someone that tall. plus, i glad she’s telling the media what’s up, she’s saying you can still be sexy w/o weighing 100 pounds

Tyra looks good in all the pictures, except the black one she looks bigger. I think she should try to maintain this size.

No Tyra is not fat but this lady is………

@17 I agree. Tyra cut it out! She needs a man!

she’s not fat but she is letting herself go a little. television and photos make you look bigger than you are, so she should at least try to stay fit. lately she’s been looking kinda flabby.

The media, except for CL and other sites, is evil. They destroy people’s lives for an interesting story. SMH. Bastards.

SHE LOOKS GOOD. JUST DONT GET TOOOOO OUTTA CONTROL WHERE AS THO U START 2 GET HEALTH PROBLEMS. BUT AS FAR AS HER BODY, SHE LOOKS BETTA DEN BEFO!!

i will no longer be consumed with the guilt of mistakes i made in men. I’m letting go of the bad choices i made and willing to learn from them. I will not think about these men who were insignificant to me and i was to them. Who was there for the purpose of sex and sex only. I will accept that with no reservations, it is what it is. No more will i paint a picture that is not there(fantasize)nor will i go back 2giving myself to someone who wants nothing more then the THAT.
Fools go back, real woman learn from their mistakes and keep it moving. I will no longer feel ugly inside because of them. I’m taking back myself respect, dignity & self worth. I am not my past, I am who i choose to be today which will determine who i am tomorrow. I DESERVE 2 LOVE ‘N’ 2 BE LOVED- NO EXCEPTIONS.

Whatever her career as a model is over she doesn’t have to be so little anymore. Who cares about what people have to say, more than likely they’re either not in shape or didn’t make close to as much as she did with her body so FORGET’ EM. She’s a beautiful woman.

You know how the media is. If Tyra had gotten thinner they would have a problem. Look what they drove poor Nicole Richie to as a result of them writing that she was large and dressed tacky.

Sometimes Tyra looks like she has gained a few pounds. Maybe its the clothes. I don’t know. If she is happy leave her be.

I would be more inclined to buy into Tyra’s obsession with letting people that its ok to not look as good as her-if the photos weren’t obviously photoshoped.

I think Tyra is beautiful. The media is CONSTANTLY throwing these images of skinny ass women in our faces, it’s refreshing to see a real woman that has crossed over to mainstream media. More women need to be comfortable in their skin no matter what size they are. I don’t even think she’s airbrushed in those pics because she said that she’ll never retouch her photos again. It’s sad that 160 lbs at 5′10 is considered fat. But hell, that’s white folks for you. Ain’t no black people complaining about her being fat…except those few that have been brainwashed by white media.

#25 NUFF RESPECT TO YOU, WE LADIES CAN ALL TAKE SOMETHING FROM WHAT. PEACE & LOVE

She photoshopped In that red swimsuit. Tyra looks fat in that right pic.

@28…How is “so obvious” that they’ve been photoshopped? The magazine photos look exactly like the candid, only she has on makeup.

FROM THAT ^

Tyra is still a hot tamale..work tyra!!!

lmao at # 10 tryna shop… and ^^^ #28 is too funny and true!

Of course I don’t think she’s fat, but in that black swimsuit she looks heLLa out of shape… The red swim suit is totally retouched, but she looks great though… I hate how she’s always tryna make a statement… So it’s like she’s gaining the weight to be a better role model.. Whatever… GO TYRA!!!!

BOTH PICTURES LOOK SUSPICIUOS TO ME. THE FAT PIC LOOKS LIKE THEY PLACED TYRA’S HEAD ONTO SOMEONE ELSE’S BODY AND THE PICTURE IN THE RED SUIT LOOKS LIKE A BODY STUNT DOUBLE.

Sorry, but this is all just staightup BS! In 6 months or less, she’ll run a frickin show on her battle with weight, blah blah blah.
Just as Oprah and Star and Carnie and all the other heavier women were total hypocrites about being comfy and cozy in their skin, she’ll fight to lose it.
Tyra is SO unconvincing to me. She’s talking all this smack about self esteem, but look at the ashy blonde wig she slaps on her head DAILY. Please.
Love her HUSTLE and work ethic, BUT

This woman’s phonier than a $3 bill!

HER THIGHS ARE FINE BUT THEM LEGS ARE HIDEOUS

TYRA LOOKS NICE REGARDLESS IM LOVING THAT WIG!!

yo #25 what does that post have to do with tyra? anyway i respect that you come to some sort of self realisation of a new found respect for yourself. i guess u felt the need to share it on the blog.

IT’S ALL GOOD

Folks better leave TYRA alone. Shoot for the past 15 years or so, she’s been living off of RICE CAKES and FIG LEAVES to satisfy the white folk…She deserve to eat a BUSCUIT with some Gravy every now and then if she want to! Tyra already said she was always the thickest girl out of all the VICTORIA SECRET models, so why are folks acting surprised?!

The chick is like 5′10 inches tall, the NORMAL weight and size you’re supposed to be for that height ain’t it? Leave it up to the folks in the modeling industry, they’ll have you at 5′10-91 lbs!! Walking around looking like a D@MN COAT RACK with a LACEFRONT WIG on top!! That’s right TYRA..EAT THAT D@MN PORKCHOP if you want to!! Those people in HOLLYWEIRD are CRAZY AS HELL!!

she gonna look just like her mama

no i don’t think she is fat now but she will be

her arms make her look fat in these pics

RealTalkSistah, great post

Tyra looks great! For all of the folks talking about she needs to go to a gym I’m sure you all don’t have anyones membership and probably have jelly rolls all over the place!

SHE IS STILL PRETTY

She needs to leave that lacefront alone. It is sooo fake. Looks like she just threw it on her head on the way out the door.

All the Tyra haters need to sit down. DON’T THINK THAT AT ANY GIVEN TIME SHE COULDN’T REGAIN HER “TWIG” SHAPE AND ROCK THE MODELING INDUSTRY…TRUST AND DON’T GET IT TWISTED. TYRA IS A THREAT TO EVERY DIVA AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE.

REMEMBER, SHE INVENTED THE WORD “FIERCE” IN EVERY MEANING OF THE WORD. DAYUM HATERS!

Monique is fat… Tyra ain’t.

she’s not fat at all!! the magazines might not have been photoshopped because i once heard tyra say that she never has a pic photoshopped and will not do a shoot if they photoshop it. she could’ve been lying but i’d like to believe her. besides i do think the pic w/the black suit was probably an unflaterring angle. the paparazzi just wants to make her weight gain look worse so they shot her in a bad angle on person.

besides how do we know if the paparazzi didn’t photoshop the “candid” pic so that she would look bigger? ppl should be asking that

Please stop being so negative. I wonder what some people that post to this board look like, especially when you say that Tyra needs to hit the gym. (I’m sure you have a dimple or stretch mark somewhere yourself) There isn’t a damn thing wrong with Tyra’s body. She is comfortable in her own skin, which is something that most people can’t do. (hence throwing insults, talking about somebody else’s body) Anywho…Tyra is 5′10. At that height and weighing 161 pounds, she is NOWHERE near fat.

And before I forget…the same way a picture can be photoshopped to make someone look thinner, it CAN be photoshopped to make them look bigger. Catching someone at a different angle, can alter how big they might look.

she is not fat, she is a healthy weight,she was never necessarily a stick thin woman even as a model she was bigger than most of her counterparts. what weight do you have to be to be considered slim now a days? a 0 or a 2 i guess. it is just ridiculous to me. the picture she is wearing the stripe/ black bathing suite she does look a bit on the chubby side,but she does not look horrible compared to some people i have seen. she looks great in the red bathing suite on the people magazine cover even though it might be a bit air brushed it’s not to far from how she normally looks,plus the other picture where she is bigger might have been messed with to. anyway she looks like her weight coincides with the people magazine picture when i watch her show.

she not fat, shoot most blk women would love to be her size. blk women are proud to have ass, that how they get the man, make the money. and pay the rent. lol

Man I wish I was FAT like Tyra…That girl is not fat.

i agree….tyra is not fat…i actually do think she looks better with more meat on her…hollywood needs to get over the fact that curves make clothes look better….POINT BLANK! I understand some people can’t help being skinny, but why does America idolize looking stick-then? thats not sexy to me…sorry

tyra could get it anytime………..even xmas!

love the pictures… hate the lace wig…

WHO CARES TYRA WAS A MODEL & SHE IS RETIRED AND IF SHE GAINED A LITTLE WEIGHT THATS HER BIZZ, AND WASN;T EVERYBODY TALKING LAST WEEK ABOUT CHANGING THE WEIGHT LIMITS ON MODELS (TOO THIN) AND NOW THIS.SHE LOOKS BEATYFULL AS ALWAYS! yOU GO TY TY

what we need to talk about is that damn lacefront wig.

but she aint fat…

These pictures are photoshopped to make her look bigger, I saw a before and after picture of her and they blew this picture up. She was doing yoga on the beach, then they blew the picture up. Tyra is thicker than she use to be but to me she was too small before, she had to be because she was a model. Now she isnt and she can eat whatever she wants too…Leave her ALONE!!

I’m glad to finally see a post with 99% consensus male and female. BRAVO CL POSTERS! Anyway, Tyra IS NOT FAT. She’s very normal, and she’s a sista and sistas got a little extra sumpthin sumpthin that others go to Dr. 90210 to try to get. DO YOU TYRA.

I’m going to get me a bowl of gumbo!

Im going to eat some popeyes…..

I don’t feel anyone should be made fun of when it comes to nature appearances. I don’t care who you are and what you do, because some people can’t help the way that they look. I’m far from big and I think I’m far from ugly, but there is ALWAYS someone out there who thinks otherwise. I wont say Tyra’s skinny and I wont say she’s fat. It’s really not my place.

I don’t really think that tyra is Fat, but she has gotten a lot thicker than she was before(which is fine). The pic with the black swim suit,looks funny tho..(doesn’t really look like tyra’s body. I think once you’re HEALTHY,then your weight shouldn’t be an issue. Some people are a size 1 or 2(just naturally) and some people are a size (11..12)naturally.
My thing is, tyra preaches all this self love etc etc, but yet still on her show…she never picks a big girl to win. I do understand,she is not the only judge or the person who makes the final decision,but to me…she is only put a “thick”girl in the mix,just because.
There’s a lot of agencies that do have a plus size division,so there’s no excuse for that. That’s just my thing with tyra…she should sometimes even put more than 1 thick person on the show. But hey….certain things will never change.

Yeah, she ain’t fat…she just got tired of starving herself for fashion. Shyt, I know she is tearin that fried chicken up! Plus, she tall as shyt!! How much did Janet weigh in her “fat” pictures? I think it was around the same, but her being short…u know..didn’t work to her advantage. People notice it on Tyra because she was a STICK before…that’s it.

I’ll still take you Tyra!!!! We’ll piss on the haters together, lol!

They wrong for calling her fat…yeah at 1 time she was very thin but..thas when she was modeling…not now…she can pack on a few lbs. if she wants…hell she probably had 2 diet when she was modeling…so she just making up for lost nutrients! lol.

plus…please no 1 call her fat because her and i have similar/ same measurements/ height…n everything…n if u call her fat…then that means u callin me fat…which means im offended! lol.

Tyra is not fat, but people are calling her fat because she has put on a significant amount of weight in a very short amount of time. She should lose weight. How can you have a show called America’s Next Top model and not be in “model” shape yourself. She should just admit that she is lazy and does not want to workout.

i liked her when she was thick i can handle all that

She ’s gorgeous. Have you heard all this model who dead coz they were so thick? Who told that to be beautiful we should be thick they are all ugly look Nicole, Olsen sisters.. i prefer somebody like beyonce who got hips. Tyra you are WONDERFUL. Fuck off the others…Sorry for my english im french Bye

Janee @40 LOL, so true, girls gotta eat.
If I had her money, i’d be eating lobster and steak everyday!!!!!!!!! Tyra is not stressed by working the runway anymore because she paid her dues. But, with age, if you are not careful, weight can creep up on you. And unfortunately, the media is unforgiving. She’s gotta keep it under control. She’s like 5′11 so she should be at this weight for her age. If she was 130, people would be saying she’s too thin for her height.

No, I dont Tyra is fat. Yes, she needs to hit the gym and tone it up alittle, but she is not huge…..yet I bet in the next month or two Tyra will lose 10 or 20 pounds. She might say shes happy with her weight for now, but she will take a good look at her pictures and hit gym, watch you will see.

I wanna know…how many posters here regularly hit the gym? Folks wonder why people having eating disorders? Everybody cannot have washboard abs and thunder thighs, regardless of how much they work out. Be realistic people.

So what a girl cant switch from Victoria Secret to Hanes Her Way? I am more concerned about that ugly hair.

People are just trying to get their chance to bring down the woman who men love. Finally they have their chance, one less pretty girl to worry about trying to be like. And anyways…I like meat on my bones! more to eat…just keep it sexy though.

I Dont Think That Tyra Is Fat In Fact I Think She Neva Looked Better. Love Yourself!
