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………

http://www.meetnorbit.com

@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!

Tyra looks great! She looks better now and Im glad that she is putting it out there, that you dont have to be skinny to be beautiful, because its not True

I think Tyra is beautiful being thick.I myself as a thick young lady appluad her and Beyonce because they have taught us that you dont have to be skinny to be beautiful !!!!!!!!! I luv being thick and where I’m from having a big butt is not a bad idea(LOL) I luv tyra and I think she is doing a good job of empowering young ladies like myself!!!!!!!!!!!

The only thing that looks fat is that cootchie,lawd have mercy

Hell no she isn’t fat…she is thicky-thick! There is a big difference…

I was in the club this past Friday and the DJ was playing that song that goes “…watch out for the big girls”, and the DJ goes to all my big girls if you are 165 and up make noise.

I was like 165 isn’t that big in my eyes…especially if u someone tall as shyt like Tyra. I just think America has this fycked up concept about being small.

The guy I’m dating now considers me to be thick and I’m 5′8 and 145-150 pounds. When I was 130-135 pounds men would say I’m too skinny…now I put some weight on and I definitely get more guys chasing me than ever lol.

Guys love a thick chick…Tyra just should tone up like others previously stated.

I also notice that it is mostly White America that is obsessed with being a size 1 or 2…

I feel like that reason for that is alot (not all) of White women carry their weight differently than alot of Black women.

Like 160 pounds on a 5′8 Black female will look much different than 160 pounds on a 5′8 White female.

Our weight goes to breasts, hips, or or ass…and most of the time a White female’s weight will goes straight to her stomach or thighs. The result is usually not so flattering…

We just carry our weight differently b.cuz a majority of Black females where made to be shapely anyways…its in the genes.

This is just my opinion on what I noticed…

I apologize about any typos I made…I am at work lol.

No, Tyra is NOT fat!!!!

tyra is thick just how i like my women

Tyra’s weight isn’t the problem… her wigs are!

she’s the same size as beyonce. you decide

The only thing fat on Tyra is that camel toe. Oh yea and that fat ass 4head…. But she still bad.

Such Magnificence @80
To add to your post which I totally get, it seems to me that Black women are more proportionate too.
White women usually have smaller shoulders and bust in comparison to their hips which may be a contributing factor for the need to get implants. You know what I mean? To balance things out. And a white woman at 160 might look flabby where as a Black woman at 160 looks firm. Muscle mass I guess.

stomach rolls?some of you posters.are hysterical.i don’t see no rolls,she aint even fat.tone up?the woman is ok.shes tall so weight looks different on her.if she was short as hell and 160lbs umm different story.we just to get out of entertainment mode and snap back to reality..

I’d take those thighs of Tyra’s around me ANYDAY. And like some earlier posters stated, the coochie does look kind of “fat” too!!

A DEFINITE PLUS for me.

Yo I am so sick of the industry trying to tell people what is beautiful and what is ugly. Half of the time the people trying to talk about people be the ones that are busted. Tyra you look great. You are doing positive having two top shows and you know some negativity had to come your way when you doing good. Rock your weight Tyra b/c it looks good on you.

Tyra does look fat and needs to lose weight

So she gained a lil weight, the sista still looks good! I’m just saying if she’s SOOOOO secure in her looks, why did she feel the need to respond with a cover and layout giving her weight?

She has some self esteem issues whether she wants to admit it or not.

Since, all the gossip magazines are made by skinny white women of course Tyra a beautiful successful black woman would be too fat by their standards. They want all stars to look like Rachel Zoe. Skinny, pale and a cokehead. There are so many stars who fit that profile. Correct? Btw..the average size of woman in America is 14.

TYRA LOOKS GOOD, DON’T FORGET SHE IS A BLACK WOMAN.
BLACK WOMAN HAVE CURVES. IF SHE PUT ON 30 POUNDS, IT FITS HER VERY WELL. THAT GIRL HAS A BODY. IF SHE GETS TO FAT, I THINK TY TY KNOWS WHEN TO BACK AWAY FROM THE TABLE. STOP HATING ON OUR GIRL. SHE LOOK GOOD.

SHE ALRIGHT!

Obviously the red bathing suit photo is airbrushed. She has cellulite in the second picture.

I THINK TYRA IS BEAUTIFUL AND AS LONG AS SHE FEELS GOOD AND THE WEIGHT ISN’T AFFECTING HER HEALTH THEN CONTINUE TO WORK IT GIRL!

That picture is seriously photo-shopped. Tyra isn’t pencil thin but still looks gorgeous and HEALTHY at her size. Plus her size hasn’t stopped her from still raking in the cash after her modeling career. We as Black people need to stop trying to fit the white standard of beauty especially since white tricks are buying thick breasts, lips and asses - which we were born with in the first damn place. Don’t believe the hype!

I think Tyra is Tyra. She is who is. God made her that way for a reason. I like Tyra for being herself. I can see why she is upset. If the photos aren’t tampered with, i like the pictures anyway.

that’s how i like ‘em. just ain’t feelin’ the wig…. I’d hand-feed her ribs and pancakes if i could keep her THAT size.

she is beautiful!!!! the hair is looking too blonde but she looks good not fat!

She looks fine as she is, but those pics of her in the red bathing suit are definitely altered which kinda defeats the purpose of the article doesn’t it?

@ Such Magnificence, School ‘em girl!

People put too much emphasis on NUMBERS. What people need to look at is body fat compared to muscle mass and weight distribution.

I wouldn’t listen to anything that comes out of anyone’s mouth if they’re from Hollyweird. That place is corrupt as hell. They’ll talk about how fab-o-lous Nicole Richie skinny ass look but will dog a regular sized woman. GMAFB.

Women, the only standards you need to follow are your own. Then include your doctor and husband if applicable.

THERE IS NO WAY SHE IS 161 IN THAT PIC IN THE RED, SHE LOOKS LIKE 130…THAT IS NO WHERE NEAR FAT, SHE HAS NO STOMACHE WHAT IS WRONG WITH EVERYONE

@ 25 You having an epihany? WOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW

I think Tyra is fat - in the front! Y’all see that phat ass pussy?

@ RealTalkSistah:

You ain’t the first woman to get played by a man. Get over it! You play the game, you’re gonna get a few bruises.

Bitch, move on!

Concretelooper’s “Congrats” on all the intelligence I read before me today. A size 0-4 is definitely not flattering on someone Tyra’s size, that girl is 5′10. “FAT”? Hum! by Hollyweird’s standard; but Hollyweird is a town of make believe.

Blacks or African-Americans or whatever you call yourselves, we must take back our pride, dignity, and realize we are shape different then other people. Look at the Asians, Hispanics, and compare their bodies to ours. We aren’t all built the same. Asians are the smallest group of people around, as far as bone structure. Also, keep in mind that “blacks in general, don’t suffer from weak bones, that should explain a lot to you all. I’m just saying, we shouldn’t compare ourselves with “Whites, Asians, or any other group of people as much. Africans/African American is known to be be built on a stronger bone structure. Co-signed with 80 and 87, that’s exactly right, we don’t shape a like period. It’s like comparing apples and oranges. I feel as long as Tyra maintains her health she is okay.

A 5′10 women at 160lbs and you say she is fat! Rofllllll!

More marketing for this heffa’s wack show.
But as much as I can’t stand her, she’s hardly fat. I’d say normal and photos make you look bigger anyway. Shit I’m her height and weigh more…I would hate to be in any paparazzi photos for sure, but there’s no one in my life that would call me fat.
Shit, if she’s fat, what does that make Latifah?

I like tyra forreal. I mean she is human she is gonna have some off days. Guess you can’t please everyone

naw i dont think she’s fat, just a lil thick and i love thick women…lol…but yea, she alright maybe she just comfortable now and aint gotta starve herself by eatin nuthin but crackers and drinkin water.

HELL NO!!! She’s not fat, she’s FAB!!! It’s the media and those of you critisizing her that have people looking like Nicole Richie.

Tyra looks great! I hope she’s not trying to say that the picture on the beach where she is cleary bigger, is the same weight as whats shown on the People Mag.cover? She’s appears to be slightly larger and still looks great! I hate that the media tries to make people think that under weight and under nourished is the way to be. I love to see women embracing themselves.I struggled with anorexia and bulemia for years. I am 5′11 and 170 and still love myself! So, I say be who you are not what hollyweird pushes in front of you. Go Ty Ty….

Tyra, is bordering on being overweight. Yes, we all know the average woman is a 12/14 and that’s great if you’re over 5ft 7in, shorter than that you’re going to start having a problem. I’m really tired of Black folks using that as an excuse to eat themselves to death. Yes, it’s not cute being super skinny but being overweight isnt’ that cute either. We’re living longer, we have to take better care of ourselves. Start cooking, start getting a little bit of exercise and stop eating at Micky D’s and spending all your time in front of the TV with plate of food.

She looks beautiful!!!

some of yall in here embarass me. Im looking at these comments and I see the white hollywood skinny influence has seeped its way in.

GO HEAD ON #25! Did you write that yourself? If so, that’s brillant!

Tyra LOVES to eat! PERIOD! She openly admitted that it was her decision to “retire” from modeling because she was tired of maintaining her weight. She has made some serious money and huge strides so she has nothing else to prove.

The modeling is no longer her mask, so she can be who she truly wants to be…..HERSELF! I admire her for sucking it up and talking about the situation.

She looks normal to me at this size so I don’t understand all the HOOPLAH!

that’s rigth tyra eat and be merry. you could get hit by a bus tomorrow. would you rather spend today at the gym or enjoying your life (unless working out is what makes you happy then do you)?

Tyra is not fat, but she is getting older and as some women age, they get arm flab and stomach flab that won’t go away. And don’t get me started on the hips/booty/boobs issue lol. Those really get outta hand for some of us. As for those pics, that red one , in my opinion is photoshopped! Tyra doesn’t even look like that on her show. The other one is obviously real. Why is she trippin off these folks? She’s a former MODEL! She should be used to media scrutiny of her body by now. Get over it Tyra…they just needed a story and chose to pick on you!

I don’t think her weight looks bad in EITHER pic. Her wig is a different story tho.

Cosigns to the fullest with Such Magnicifence.

As long as she isn’t modeling anymore she shouldn’t give two cents what anyone has to say about her. She is not fat and I hope she continues to ignore these ignorant bastards. Tyra sweetie, do you baby. You look good.

Tyra has picked up weight since her modeling days, but she is no star jones b4 the operation… She is thick now, but that pic of her on that tabloid,, whoa.. she was looking really bigger than i have ever seen her.. She looks like she is in a size 20 on that pic on the beach.. She looks good in that red swimsuit, I hope that is not photoshopped…lol P/s Is that another LACE FRONT WIG i see?

I’m gonna take Nicole, sit her ass down, and shove fried chicken, biscuts, collards, pizza, whatevea type of food down her throat until she gains 90 pounds!!! And to think she’s half black… oh!

I think Tyra looks good… thats all i have to say..

I am the same height and near the same weight as Trya. I’M NOT FAT!!!…lol
Damn, I look good as hell

2 words to Tyra — lose weight.

hey more power to her..more girls need to fill like that..

I think Tyra Banks is a great entertainment personality. I hope that she is just as funny and warm in real life as she is on TV.

And she looks great. SHE HAS CURVES. What’s wrong with that.

She is serving as a great role model to young girls and I wish more women in the entertainment industry were like her.

ITS OKAY TO BE YOURSELF. EVERYONE DOESN’T HAVE TO LOOK LIKE THE SAME PLASTIC STICK FIGURE.

I think Tyra looks great! I actually like the “thick” T, instead of the T-bone. Shout out to #25, very inspirational….

@ JANEE”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!! ”

girl u too crazy lmao

I think Tyra looks great.

TYRA looks great!!!!
who cares if she gained weight, she’s happy with herself….

I think she’s baeutiful! I mean as long she’s not looking hella crazy!!!

She’s fat in a unhealthy way…not like..beyonce way

Leave Tyra alone, FFS! She is not fat, she’s fine.

If I looked like her, I’d strut around London looking like that… even in this damn cold winter we’re having!

Minus that lacefront, of course

i like tyra. she doesnt look bad at all at least she looks happy! Look at lindsay, nicole and the olsen twins. they are stressed out trying to please everyone. They went to rehab and that shit still didnt help.

There’s only one way 2 know whether your too fat and unhealthy – ask your doctor. Don’t worry about what size jeans you wear and what people look like in a magazine. Everyone’s body is built differently, and a weight that is perfectly acceptable for one person might not be healthy for someone else. Also, don’t make the assumption that just because someone’s thin they’re healthy. Some people who are naturally thin consume the unhealthiest diets and some people who are larger eat extremely healthy and are just heir natural body size.

Tyra looks fine IMO, she looks healthy and happy and she’s not carry weight in her midsection, she’s carrying it in her hips and thighs (natural depositories for fat). I find it interesting that Tyra gets called out for being an average size while half of Hollywood is SERVELY underweight. I’m sorry very few adult women are supposed to be between 95-105 pounds, lets stop fooling ourselves!

Tyra looks like she has been airbrushed on that mag…no comparison

HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT IS FAT????? LOOK AT THOSE PICTURES ARE YA RETARTED? SHE HAS NO STOMACHE, NICE LEGS, SMALL UPPER BODY…ANY SKINNER TO ME IS UNATTRACTIVE…GOD HOLLYWOOD HAS SOME PEOPLE BRAINWASHED TO WHAT IS FAT…TYRA YOU GO GIRL YOU LOOK GREAT!!!

What she should have done was take a picture in the black swimsuit for People. Then we all can see why people whould claim she gained 40-60 pounds. The red suit does not provide a good comparison b/c it hugs the hips. Tyra body is bottom heavy and having a high cut bsuit would give a better comparison.

they could’ve thrown some makeupon them knees like they usually do but besides that tyra is hot!

Well the pictures where she’s in the red, is obviously airbrushed a little, because there’s a HUGE difference between those pictures and the ‘fat’ picture. Personally, i think Tyra has a beautiful shape and it’s great that she encourages people to feel good about themselves. Her ankles are freakishly skinny though lol.

Naw I think Tyra looks great. She’s not fat! People need to get off of her and stop hatin. Tyra keep doing your thing gurlie!

It not her weight that’s the issue. It is those ugly blonde lace front wigs and pasty make up that makes her look tranny-ish. And her psychotic loony behavior she displays diplays on that that talk show of hers. There are many big girls who are beautiful. Tyra would be beatuful if she would just tone it down some, and just stop trying so hard.

america’s obsession with weight has gotten out of control. black women are supposed to have curves. if i was tyra, i wouldv’e laughed at those tabloids. all becuz she doesn’t want to starve herself and workout for 6 hours, people thinks she’s stupid. she is smart to still feel sexy. its not about the outside it’s the inside.

her legs dont even rub together!!!! and you call that fat??????

i bet its a bunch of white people behind the fat remarks. white people think that have a shape is fat.

@116 Thats right! like Tyra said…” I made millions off this body” . I say go Tyra! Thats still my girl!

You’re right #146 it is probably a bunch of white people behind it.

I have white co-workers that aren’t even fat, but because they have hips or a little butt they are constantly dieting.

It is almost like they want to look like little boys or girls. Completely flat with no shape. When you think about it’s pretty sick.

Tyra looks bad, Lets Face It She is no Naomi, Naomi got the model thing made. There is never a day I look at naomi and she doesn’t always looks like a model, that much I can’t say for tyra. Go to the gym Tyra……………Naomi rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

white people all ways trying to bring black folks down because we thick. And them white hoes, they got straight up down with they flat ass bodies what kind of shit is that

I agree with most of the posters on here that say she is not fat. However, being that she is a former model she should atleast keep herself up a lil bit. Especially becuase shes hostin producin (starrin in) ANTM where she chastises the girls all the time for their weight. And dont blame the industry, becuase the truth is America wants to see slimmer, fit women between the pages of magazines…

@ God’s Child
“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. ”

Why do people always have to turns things into a fat vs skinny, light vs dark, weave vs natural contest. Im a size 1 and have curves. That’s totally not true and everyone can not help their genes and how they come out. As long as people aren’t starving themselves to stay thin, then what’s the big deal?

uuuuuh, Tyra needs to get into the gym. She’s been absent from the workout routine.

I do think Tyra always looks great (except in the hair department) but in a way she is getting what she deserves. On her show she tells the models they need to lose weight or do this or do that if they want to stay on top. She baiscally tells these models to change who they are because she feels they don’t compare to her standards of whatever. Cause we all know Tyra always has something to say about everything she comes acorss. Now that the tables are turned on her she can’t take it. Yeah call me a hater all you want but I don’t feel sorry for Tyra so much. For her to talk about self-image so much she shouldn’t be worried about what people think of her. If I were her, I’d give the media a big “FUCK YOU” and keep it moving. No one should be telling anyone what to do with their bodies or how to live their lives. Especially not the media or people who hide behind a computer screen.

I think she looks good that size I hate that hair color with a passion though! That is herendous ewwwwwwww!!!!

she do look alot beter with meat on her bones, but what pisses me off is that she’s sitting there addressing the press about it. Have you ever heard Beyounce or RAven Somone doing this? Its like she doesnt want ppl to think she thick or something. Watch her lose 20pounds in the next few months!!!:)

It looks like they photoshopped the cover though to make her look skinnier.

oh yeah Tyra luvs to eat! I don’t blame u girl, Tyra paid her dues….Tyra do u girl!

As much as I love Tyra Banks, I am not feeling sorry for her regarding what the tabloids are saying about her concerning her weight. I think these comments are just karma coming full circle. Constantly, on America’s Next Top Model Trya is negatively criticizing contestants regarding either their southern accents, spaced teeth, weight and appearance. Then on her talk show, Tyra tries to promote a hypocritical positive message of accepting everyone for who they are (when she does not do this on America’s Next Top Model). I can’t understand when she does this. Hey… everyone gets made fun of in life… especially celebrities.

AGREE W/ 144. NOT FAT, JUST TRY WAY TOO HARD. MANNISH

thank god we next more thick and heathy lookin models in dis world

Tyra is STILL thinner than the average American woman. She is still a healthy weight for her height and she was underweight before. I can see someone saying she’s fat for a model, but she’s definitely not fat.

tyra is still average looking, even if she has gained a bit of weight.

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tooo big tyra

I think she looks nice at that size. Not everyone has to weigh 110 lbs. Ain’t nothing wrong with Tyra having a little size on her. She can still get it.

As long as Tyra is happy is all that matters. Anybody that goes to her talk show site knows that although she does get her grub on from time to time because she likes to eat, knows that she also excersies and and tries to stay healthy as well. So you go girl!! Do you!

Tyra isn’t anywhere near fat now BUT compared to her “modeling figure” she is a tad plump. Additionally- doesn’t her recent weight gain after her retirement make you think that all of those years she must have been starving herself to stay as thin as she was? I mean, Cindy Crawford, Heidi Klum, Naomi Campbell and the rest of her modeling compatriots are still thin into their 30s…things that make you go “hmmmm…”

PLUS I think she probably went on Atkins or something for a few weeks before she posed for People Mag and NOW she is probably 161 but in the pics that surfaced a few months ago she was clearly at least 15-20 lbs heavier.

that second pic wiff the black on bitch puleeez it is wat it is thats a natural pic if i eva saw one. dont make excuses thats when you look guilty ha azz is bigger than usual lacefront and all be proud, or stop eating dam it but dont make excuses

i wouldn’t mind being as fat as tyra. If thats fat than i feel sorry for this world.

THE HOE HERE IS SO FAKE, I LIKED HER BEFORE BUT NOW EWWW.
SHE AINT NATURAL IN THOSE PICS, SHE STILL HAS THE WIG ON AND FAKE EYELASH DAMN SHE SAD.
WHY IS SHE LYING THAT SHE HAS SELF CONFIDENCE? IF SHE DID SHE WOULD STOP WEARING ALL THAT MAKE UP AND WIG AND STOP TRYING TO BE WHITE OR TO BE ANOTHER BEYONCE DAMNN .

TYRA FIX URSELFE UR FAT FACE IT.
LOOSE THE FAT IS NOT LOOKING GOOD

She’s not fat!

If Tyra was fake she wouldnt have taken off all of her makeup on the show which she has done on more than 1 occasion. 1 being the time that she went to prison where she took off her makeup AND took her wig/weave off. How many other celebrites and talkshow hosts have deliberately taken off their makeup and weave for everybody to see? Not many. So fake as far as make up and hair goes-dont think so.

The pic of her in the red looks straight photoshopped. The other one looks real!!

Tyra has been waiting all these years to eat sister earned millions hell go ahead have a crispy cream or 2 damn.

Damn.. Tyra makes the wood in Woode stand up.. Soul sista can get it any day..to bad she sprung on them cackers..

Damn.. Tyra makes the wood in Woode stand up.. Soul sista can get it any day..to bad she sprung on them crackers..

@159 NOT FEELING SORRY.

Your so right, your absolutely right I never thought of that.

SHE IS FAT…LIKE A SHAMOO THE WHALE!

tyra’s not fat BUT her legs are shaped weirdly. i do feel sorry for her because, like someone else stated before, since she began as a model she will ALWAYS be compared to how she was in the 90s

Tyra looks amazing…actually better here…

@159 i agree wit u she talk about them and tell them about there looks now she crieng ova a lil thickness i would want to be think than be fat!

It so said that ppl can criticize all the young Hollywood stars (like Nicole Richie) for being stick thin and then turn around and make fun of Tyra, a beautiful, healthy looking women. Yes, she was skinnier when she first started modeling, but she’s gotten older and now that she has other aspirations besides modeling she can probably eat what she wants now for the most part. She’s not fat at all to me. She loos great in my opinion.

please>>>>she is not fat. i actually think they added something to the balck bathijng suit pic because the one in the red look like a slim girl. remind u she girls are 160 and still look slim it just depends on the persons body and shape. but she fine just dont gain anymore Trya

when are white ppl ever going to be satified…damn.. i mean if you are “THICK” like tyra or beyonce..you are fat….but when you look like nicole richie and LINDSAY lohan….and tha OLSEN twins..you are TOO SKINNY….ppl are never happy….smh. . . ppl need to stop worryin bout tha smallest things like WEIGHT and get money…

yall need to leave Tyra alone shes been a stick all her life now that she has retired from modeling and wants to eat let her. U GO TYRA, DO U

@ you already know’s post-
i completely agree w/you. what is a “real woman” supposed to look like anyway?

a lot of ppl on here r saying that she was underweight in her modeling days. i saw her pics and she was not underweight at all. she was just thin and there’s nothing wrong with being thin. same goes for thickness. there’s nothing wrong w/being thick either.

i’m a slim girl but i’m still known around my friends and ppl that i meet (all different races btw) as a thin girl with a very curvy body. i take offense to the posts that say that thin is bad and that a real woman should look just like tyra. i am a real woman as well (i’m finally 18 yaay). i don’t think tyra is at all fat. i think her weight is fine just like i think my weight is fine. we have to accept that all women come in different shapes and sizes and every woman has a man that will find her body sexy. we need to get rid of this whole “thickness is the only perfection” ideal or the “skinny up” nonsense. as long as the person is at HIS?HER HEALTHY WEIGHT not your idea of healthy weight we should all be happy

Cosign with 9 and 179. that people mag pic is AIRBRUSHED!! but stop hating on slim people i dont go around telling people to lose weight nor do i think people should go around telling people to gain weight. as long as i have a good blood pressure, and im not diabetic, and im NATURALLY SLIM OR NATURALLY THICK

Not slim by vomitting or not eating

or thick by HAVING NO SELF CONTROL WHEN EATING

then its all good people.

also tyra has an HOURGLASS SHAPE

HOURGLASS

HOURGLASS

usually thicker girls or fatter are either pear shaped or top heavy (triangle shaped)unless they are wearing something that gives the illusion of an hourglass shape. and so i dont think tyra is a good example for heavier girls or women. QUEEN laTIfAh yeah tyra not really.and QUEEN is active in excercising and toned people should be worried about BMI and toning and nothing else.

She looks okay, she’s just not a stick figure. Plus, when she first started modeling, she was 17 or 18. She’s 30-something now, you can’t expect a woman to stay that skinny unless they’re doing something unhealthy to themselves. But that blond shit has GOT to go.

she is suppossed to talk about this on her talk show and then come out on stage in that same bathing suit to prove to the world she aint that big. You know tyra, always trying to prove herself.

Tyra fat - rubbish

Why don’t some people seek to look a little deeper at things. Tyra Banks is a very attractive and sexy woman that many men would be attracted to. In my opinion a few bitchy people are suffering from envy - I mean she’s an intelligent, attractive and sexy woman whose excellent work ethic has made her a success on the catwalk, on the chat show circuit and as a model show mentor. I would not be surprised if the comments were generated by the likes of janice Dickinson, who was dropped from Tyra America’s Next Top Model (replaced by Twiggy) who then went on to create her own version of the said show. Tyra is evidently suffering at the hands of some bitchy people who are feeling that she’s doing too well and want to bring a “sista” down and the rest of the foolish sheep out there start hollering in unison playing follow the leader.

If Tyra reads this site my advice to her would be keep on doing what you’re doing - hit the gym for health purposes if you want to but stand strong and know that you are beautiful, intelligent and curvaceous and that’s a combination that most women want.

since when is 161 fat? thats healthy for a black woman with curves. can we talk about something else?

She look real nice to me

THIS IS MAKING ME MAD
how tha hell is tyra FAT?????????
THIS IS WHY YOUNG GIRL ARE DYIN FROM EATING DISORDERS BECAUSE TYRA IS CLASSED AS FAT WHEN SHE IS ABOUT A SIZE 10!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This obession with weight, I mean, it’s okay to lose some pounds, nothing wrong with that, but looking bone thin? The media shoves these bony ass models into all these poor girls face across the country, and the girls think that’s the way thay are supposed to look. It is sick. You don’t have to be a size 0 to be beautiful. Be you, and fuck all who say different, ladies.

#38 I ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH YOU…I ALWAYS THOUGHT TYRA HAD THE MOST UGLIEST OF LEGS TOO. ANYWAY, NO SHE IS NOT FAT, OF COURSE NOT. BUT BY WHITE PEOPLE’S STANDARDS SHE IS. AND I BELIEVE NO ONE SHOULD FOLLOW WHITE PEOPLE BECAUSE THEY ARE SO F*CKED UP IN THE HEAD ANYWAY. DUMB F*CKS!!

i wish was that thick myself…white people just love people with no shape/figures, i’ll never understand why

Boi Stop!!! Tyra is beautiful and so are other thick people. I bet the folks writing this trash don’t look half as good as her. Can we have some real news?

no..i dont think she’s fat..but i do think that she looks..sloppy. the black bathing suit is ugly, she’s slouching and the hair color is bad… Tyra was never super stick thin…she was known for being a curvy model..but now..she just looks sloppy. and seriously..what does she expect..when a former victorias secret model hits 161 lbs people are going to talk about it. I hate when famous people whine that bs about leave me alone and i want some privacy..you’re famous..wtf do u expect?

she antn fat at all they did that s

considering shes a supermodel, she poses awfully in the pics with the red swimsuit. her legs are positioned weirdly and her smile looks extremely fake. her weight is of no concern to me but her weave/wig certainly is

Tyra is fine just the way she is. So what if she is a little thick. To me, if she’s happy, then that’s what counts. Most sisters aren’t built like a No. 2 pencil. If you see a woman and you see bones, like Nicole Ritchie, that’s a woman who has a problem. Tyra needs to feel Nicole some of what she’s eating.

Tyra looks fine. Most sisters don’t look like N0.2 pencils anyway. To me, the extra weight just makes her that much more thick in the right places. Women are going to pick up a little weight in their 30s. As long as she and whomever she’s with enjoys her look, more power to her. She can still get it.

Tyra is NOT fat. She’s intelligent, beautiful, strong, healthy, and blessed.

I can’t believe that’s Tyra in the black bathing suit. I think they added some mass to the pic. It’s not even a flattering swimsuit.

And that wig in the other pic. Ugh!

I love Tyra. I am very proud of her. She is a good role model for all women.

nice and thick lmao…I think she looks great lol

she loks lik a old women with that blond weave

The media and you people with lives just need a new target every week to make yourselves feel worthwhile. Well it doesn’t. It makes you look pathetic.

Tyra Banks is drop dead gorgeous. She is an amazing role model for girls and women alike. She is not the slightest bit fat … wouldn’t be even if she weighed 200 pounds. My god. she’s 5′10 not 5′4. Healthy, toned men that are 5′8 on average weigh 180 lbs. i mean. come on. you guys are ridiculous.

I love Tyra. She loves herself no matter what, and encourages girls all over to do the same. The media needs to frig off if they don’t like that. Get it girl!!

Who cares if Tyra put on a few lbs? She earned her millions being skinny, she is getting older and most women naturally get plumper as they age. It happens. She has earned her right to eat the way she wants and enjoy the rest of her life…I wouldn’t want to be on my deathbed with my last thought being…damn I should have eaten that hot fudge sunday, because then I would be able to die with a smile on my face about such a sweet memory. She is living in the moment as the rest of us should. I don’t understand why the world has to judge people on their appearance. Way back in the day, if you were plump you must have been wealthy because only the wealthy carried a few extra pounds, and most paintings of women were of plump voluptuos fertile females.

The pic in the red swimsuit is how EVERY lady should look. The other pic of Tyra in the water is how EVERY woman should NOT look. Face it people, Tyra has had her 15 minutes of fame and glory and now she could care less what WE think of her. yes… she has turned into the AVERAGE CHUNKY WOMAN !!! What a darn shame. And… of course the average chunky woman will say Tyra looks great NOW. What a joke this all is !!! WHAT A SHAME !!!!!

LMAO!
How you gone wait until a whole month to decide to respond to weight rumors? hmmmmm, could it be cause you need to crash diet and lose some of that fat? I wonder…and why the need for photoshopped pictures? if you are indeed proud of your body, show the real deal then…damn hypocrite. Fake bitches get revealed everytime. “I’ve gained weight, network want me to lose weight, oh boo-hoo”, cry me a river.

How the hell you gone criticize the very industry you prayed to get into and have paid your bills for the last decade, all this time fully aware of the prejudices the industry represent, and you’ve been dieting like hell to stay in industry, now older and tired of starving, just want to let loose, and got the nerve to criticize people for their point of view. You think you are special cause you were born tall, and you talk about the shorter models and criticize them (for the record, that’s a prejudice the industry fosters), yet you don’t want to be judged on another physical dynamic, weigt. You work in one of the most critical/look-oriented industries there is, and got the nerve to get upset when others judge you! Tyra, get your expanding fake ass outta here with that bullshit! P.S., your show suck, please re-evaluate and get a new hustle! You are as fake as your contrived smile…you are a hypocrite and not worthy of a dropped tear. next!!!!!

P.S., if this were america’s next top model, and unless the model was interested in plus size modeling, you would suggest they lose weight, and are often critical of the girls on the show that gain weight over the episodes of the show (ex: Keenya).

And if it’s okay to be 161 pounds, why havent a plus size model ever won on your show, though it’s been 6 seasons already?!!! This is not American Idol, you and your panel are the judges, (not the american public), and you’ve never selected a plus size model to be a winner. Bones win every season!

Tyra you are the biggest hypocrite. You ditch it out, but you can’t take it. You deserve no sympathy.

Tyra is far from fat she looks like an average healthy black woman. I wish I would starve myself to be a dam 0 or 2 just to stop people in Hollywood and tabloids from talking about me. Tyra is rich and established, and yes in your 30s you do start to pick up weight a little more. I’m 32, 5′2 and 135lbs. and still consider myself physically in shape but that’s because I workout and take care of myself. I love my curves, besides black women were not built to look like sticks anyways.

wow@ “the muffin top”. that was so accurate and funny as hell =D

no but she is a thick chic but thats in a good way

no but she is a thick chic but thats in a good way

number 213, I couldnt agree more with all that you said. I have ALWAYS said that she has like 2 different personalities, one for her talk show and one for antm. In her talk show she is aww this and aww dont talk about fat people, be who you wanna be, you can do anything, dont take off your clothes for anyone. THen on antm, a girl could get sent home if she doesnt take off her clothes, or take off her top for a photo shoot. So Im thinking, wait, On your talk show you say dont ever do anything that makes you uncomfortable. Tyra is a strange one, I never knew this until she opened her mouth. I agree, People have been talking about her weight for awhile and she is just now addressing it, maybe she had to hurry and loose weight to prove to everyone that she isnt fat. I really cant personally stand Tyra, she is so into her self its terrible.

I really love it when she has a fine male celeb on her show and then asks them “so do you have any crushes”? KNOWING THEY ARE GOING TO SAY THEY HAVE A CRUSH ON HER!!.

I think Tyra looks great. At least her stomach is still flat. She did not look fat when she had her panty party on her show.

cosign w/37!

I don’t think Tyra is fat!! I think she’s beautiful. What is up with people thinking you have to be a stick to be pretty??!! U don’t and Tyra is a great example that.

@ 171/213/219

i think you all are haters she is wonderful.You state that she has two diffrent personalities but if you think about it she has two diffrent shows.First of all shes helping these young women make it in the business that she has already conquered. Meaning that she going to tell them what they need to do to make it, correction what she had to do to make it .Now on her talk show she is still letting the women who are not looking to be a supermodel that you dont have to try to meet standards that dont relate to what you want to do in life .Its ok to be average .She’s made it and she doesnt have to do that anymmore .This is it if you are a manager and you tell new employees what to do , they are to do so if they want to reach your positon , so because the manager is where they want to be .But of course when you make it to the top you will have haters especially when you are liked by many .

do you TYRA…………….

Tyra is big, She’s gained weight, tyra has a big forehead, Sounds like a bunch of haters. Tyra is a talented young woman that has done so much to help young girls, Ask yourself what have you done to help another person, I know waste time talking about others. Tyra is a “Top Model” a great talk show host and a kind loving soul keep your eyes on her, and watch the great things coming her way.

Tyra’s biggest fan!

U Go Girl!!!!!!!!!!

What she needs is a man! come on! step up, date a guy or….is she?

tyra’s hot.
and she isn’t fat,
she dosn’t need to work out.

you’re all probably ugly and fat.
tyra can do as she wishes.

She must have lost weight since those pictures were taken, because she was straight-up fat then. She’s not as bad now, but I bet that if she lost the wig she’d also lose a good 25lbs.

Give the girl a break! Who really cares if she’s fat or not…she’s has been skinny all her life and she stopped modeling so if somebody should care, it would be Tyra herself..not us, so get over it

@ 204

That’s why she’s by herself.

Tyra Banks is gorgeous, she is a perfect example of the confidence that one should have. If that would of been anyone else in that tabloid, they would of freaked out and changed the way they looked to try to make critics happy. For god sakes look at lindsey lohan. That girl is so clueless. Kudos to Tyra, I am a very big fan of hers, and I hope those critics are ashames of themselves. Shes made millions and millions of dollars putting lingere and clothing on that body, and people love to see it. SHES A SUPERMODEL YOU IDIOTS!

Tyra is always talking about “you have to stay thin for the modeling indistry…well look at her, she doesnt look to thin to me!!
Girls are constanly getting cut from Americas Next Top Model becuase their to “chunnky”…well Tyra PARACTICE WHAT YOU PREECH!

@231

AGAIN I SAY SHE ISNT A SUPERMODEL ANYMORE …SHE HAS TO LET THEM KNOW WHAT THEY NEED TO DO TO MAKE IT IN THAT INDUSTRY …..AND LOOK HOW LONG TACCARRA LASTED ON THE SHOW …. PEOPLE JUST WANT TO HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY I BET IF WE SAW HALF THE PEOPLE WHO POSTED THE NEGATIVE COMMENTS I BET WE COULD FIND A COUPLE OF THINGS WRONG WITH THEM …..AND WHO KNOWS SHE DOESNT HAVE A MAN OR MAYBE SHES JUST DOING HER GET REAL.

AGAIN DO YOU TYRA……………………

If anyone watches her talk show, you would hear her say over and over that she hates the dimples in her butt… she never did try to act perfect, that is the worlds perspective of her! So now that these pictures were posted of her “unflattery” body - people are being so judgemental! I would love to look like her… she is beautiful. Even on her Next top model show she sticks up for the “bigger” gals.. no matter how much self esteem a person has, these type of comments hurt. She retired from modeling a year ago.. so why shouldnt she gain a few pounds… she did her thing and now she is living “normal”.. and what??? I hate stupid people and thats all I have been hearing lately… stupid people talk smack about her. Get a life!

Tyra, is far from fat. She looks fantastic, love her.

She is not fat. who ever thinks that tyra is fat can go suck a big toe. I think she looks good. She always looks good.

Tyra is gorgeous.
She is a great rome model.

In the black unphotoshopped one, yes she looks pretty hefty.
In the red one, not as much, because obviously it has been photoshopped.
What I would like to know is, why didn’t she pose for the People magazine one without having it doctored up.

hey # 37 im sorry but wat you said is totally BS. i love her wig and she is as real as the ground under our feet i mean she is still a hot tamale i agree w/ #29 Tyra is beautiful i bet the media photoshoped the photos to make her look fat i mean i watch her show every night and she has still got her coke bottle look skinny w/ a curve. work it Tyra!!!!!!!!!

hey #230 lol love the comment i totally agree I am a big fan of Tyra and love her confidence I would kill for a body like hers not that im fat i weigh like 124. Tyra is awesome and so cool. The stupid bloody Tabloids can go bother someone else. work it Tyra!!!!

Tyra’s #1 Fan

i think tyra is beautiful no matter what who cares if she gained weight shes showing what more people in hollywood need to show… railings arnt hot

TYRA BANKS IS NOT FAT!!! WHO THE FUCK STARTED SAYIN THAT SHIT??? SO THE HELL WHAT SHE GAINED A COUPLE OF POUNDS. SHE STILL LOOK BETTER THAN EVERYBODY CALLING HER FAT. HOW DARE THESE PEOPLE!!

Tyra is beautiful no matter wat they saw. Most of these ppls are ignorant cuz most of them be like “Oh i wish i could look just like ty ty and how she has a hot/sexy body” but when those same ignorant fools see her pics they all want to be switchouts and critisize her just cuz she may have gain some pnds. As the sayn goes STICKS AND STONES MAY HURT U BUT FOOLISH WORDS OR PPLS SHALL NEVER HURT U and DO ON TO OTHERS AS U WOULD WANT OTHERS TO DO TO U. (LUV U TYRA AND STAY STRONG BABY GIRL/LIL MOMMA).

Trya is NOT FAT!! regardless of her weight she is a GORGEOUS woman inside and out. anyone who believes otherwise is exactly what is wrong with society today. SO what if she has gained weight! what business is it of yours to criticize her for it? she doesn’t deserve this petty bull sh!t and i hope the tabloids are happy with themselves. knowing how SICK they truly are, im sure they are sleeping JUST fine. belittle and degrade someone for a quick buck… cause someone heartache and tears..bring down someone for no apparent reason other than to be cruel… disrespect a woman who has done NOTHING to you…admirable! (im sure you can tell this is extreme sarcasm) i have but one thing to say to ALL tabloids and ALL who work for them, create them, etc… go and ROT somewhere!

i don’t think she is fat. Plus as she has been trying to say not because u thinner means u are healther or anything. She is older now and so what if she puts on a few pounds gosh give her a break.Curves a beautiful so the media should start putting a good image on that.

This kind of stuff makes ppl not want to enjoy their life bc they constantly watching their weight and making sacrifices to plz others. That is just wrong (I’m not sayin’ u should weight a ton).She is one of the most beautiful women in the world matter of fact perfect example look at Star Jones she was fat and lost weight how she look now…..see thinner isn’t always better. Look at Monique she has lots of curve but she is still beautiful. As i see it enjoy your life eat whatever the hell u want bc in tha end we all die!!!SORRY BUT IT’S THA TRUTH

if y’all want to see fat why don’t u just check out her bank account and u will see fat

I think Trya looks good, and ppl posting comments about white girls should be quiet, its annoying

If it looks FAT, smellS FAT, walks FAT, then guess what? IT’S FAT!!!

10 YRS AGO, SHE PROBABLY made fun of fat people! Now she’s a fat pig & trying to convince herself & everyone elae that she’s not fat!

tyra is not fat, i watched the show on thursday n it really touched me. personally i think if plp wld worry about their own selfs then this world wld be alot better. if only plp knew how hurtful some of the comments they make effect some plp…. its just ashame

Honestly, in a way I understand why Tyra was so upset about the photo & what the tabloid said about her. I mean, if you were at a party or a family get together and someone said “You look fat.”, more than likely the person the comment was addressed to would be offended and try to prove that it is not true. Tyra was only don’t what any other person would do, but since her life is in the spotlight, so was her defense. I see no problem with be larger then the size 2 society says a women should be. I don’t think it is anyone else has the right to say anything about someone else’s appearance. All that matters is how that person feels about their own appearance.
I say, who cares what other people think, as long as you are happy with who you are and how you look.

I think the pic in the black was just a bad pic of her in a bathing suit she had no business wearing!!! I think she looks good thicker and people need to leave her the hell alone. If she wanna be 400 lbs. who gives a damn. These white folks jus mad cuz a black woman can feel confident even wit a few extra pounds!!!

Tyra is hot!! She is 5′10 and 161lbs Hieght to weight ratio is normal. She would get it from me 24/7. Stupid white folks!!!! They have the most F’d up views on what is beatiful. If it ain’t cracker white and paper thin it ain’t right SMH on this topic!!!!

Hi, I hate when I see this sort of thing. Tyra Banks looks great! My dad, Jim Morrison, had to face the same kind of ridicule when he put on a few pounds in 1970. I am a big woman and get tired of society’s judgement. Don’t people have better things to do with the time they have.

WTH is you people’s problem!!!??? how can you say that tyra is LAZY? have you SEEN what she does? she went through being in a women’s PRISON just to see what it was like. To understand what they were going through. Now, I may not have been in women’s prison, and i don’t have a fear of styrafoam, but now i feel that Tyra is getting the feeling of what it means to be called FATTY or BLUBBIE or THE JOLLY GREEN GIANT. just like those women in prison, i feel alot better. TYRA ISN’T FAT, SHE DOEN’T NEED TO LOOSE WEIGHT, SO ALL OF YOU CAN JUST STOP TALKING BOUT HER. we are all built differently. FOR ALL YOU KNOW, TYRA IS HEALTHY, AND YOU PEOPLE ARE ANOREXIC!

i think your a very beautiful women and as far as being fat no way…iv’e seen fat and your not even in the same line…i love your legs ..keep lookin sweet and be who you are…..ty jeff

Tyra is beautiful and a great rolemodel!

Tyra, is not fat! Even if she was i would be okay with it. This photo is not even the real Tyra! This is just a stupid rumor that is not even true! I think people are using tecnology, to make tyra, look fat, when she is not! People, that are doing this, Stop! It is ridicoulous! I don’t believe that for a second!

U people got nothing tp talk about…she is cute no matter what that is not even fat shit i wish i was that skinny…all the people that are talking about her probably have never been this skinny so i dont know why people talk…I LOVE TYRA BANKS…

Tyra, I know everyone is so… so… woried of geting “fat” … when I go to school I personaly get made fun of being THIN, people call me anorzic(much more) and they are making fun of me you should see them Tyra. A few girls I no they think they’re fat and there not. For my age my weight is avrage. For my apearince I look very athletic which is good right. I can feel what you are going through. When you said Kiss My Fat @$% you remind me can’t stand it when people make fun of me. I would have done the same thing.

Sarah S. from:CT.NB

Tyra is ABSOLUTELY GEORGOUS!!! She is my role model. And I the main reason that she is my role model is the fact that she’s not disgustingly skinny like alot of girls, she’s proud of what she has. She has a “womanly” figure…like every “woman” is supposed to have! Whats wrong with some hips and a booty?? I like my big booty, and so does my fiance!

Yea thats right.

Yea thats right. I seen the show when she was talking about this and you guys who publish that kind of stuff are sick and evil people! Anybody who wants to get paid for lying to America is stupid and I dont wish you well! I still love you Tyra even if you did gain that weight even though you didnt!

How could anyone say Tyra is fat?! those pictures represent her real look and if the modeling industry thinks Tyra is fat, then they are just plain stupid. Tyra is smoking hot! she is 33 years old but she can pull it off as 20+. She is healthy and that is the most important thing. There are people out there thinner than Tyra but do you think they’re healthy? being thin isnt everything. looks arent everything. they dont even matter. i am fat in real life, i am 120 lbs. and i am as young as you can imagine! but do you think i care whatever people say about me? NO I DONT. so all the people who read this, answer this question:

do you think Tyra is fat? do you think being thin is everything? and do you think that being fat affects the feelings of the people around you about you?

she’s still hot… actually she looks better with the 30 pounds more … mmmmm

i think tyra banks looks great

Tyra Banks is not over weight or chubby or thick at all. She’s curvy and beautiful. Truely an inspiring roll-model for teenage girls insecure about their looks. You don’t need to be 90 pounds to be gorgeous.

TyRa is NOT Fat people!! Guys like it when gurls have a little meat on their bones. Cause being SKINNY IS NOT ATTRACTIVE AT ALL! She has a nice shape. I see boys with recent pics from magazines of tyra in their locker all the time at school. She is just fine. I weigh 250 and i feel DAMN good about myself.I dont care wat anyone says. Cus i KNOW i look good! Tyra should just shake them haterz off…and not worry about what people say…because people are going to hate on you wether your skinny or fat…short or tall. Just be Urself!! I totally look up to Tyra as a role model. She is so talented and she knows how to work a runway! So tyra…keep doin ya thang…and let them haterz do they job.
