Oh, Tyra my hero! I have loved her since the first saw her TV talk show! Since then I have been madly addicted to her latest fashion choices and looks. I know all about her personality and the kind of person she is, and I know a few things most people wouldn't even know about her! You could say I am one of Tyra's fans, but that would be the understatement of a lifetime!

Does Tyra Banks have good looks, and is she keeping up on fashion? Well, of course! If there was a food chain for the fashion world she would definitely be on top! She is also five foot ten, which helps with being a model; she is naturally tall and still wears the tallest heels I have ever seen! Tyra used to wear all sorts of wigs, but now she wants her natural beauty to shine! She found that she can still be unique and use her real natural hair. And I and many others would agree that her natural hair goes much better with her brown eyes, and her African American skin tone. She looks best when she is all natural!

If I had had to describe Tyra's personality, I wouldn't know where to begin! There are so many words that describe it like, spontaneous, excited, exhilarated, bubbly, talkative, likable, and the list goes on and on! Tyra chooses not to drink; she says "I can still have a good time with people without alcohol" This seems true, because whenever I see her on TV she looks like she is having the time of her life! Tyra does not only want her to try the natural look, she wants everyone to try it with her. She went on tour motivationally speaking to teens and adults about how they are beautiful on the inside and out, and how you are most beautiful when you are just being yourself!


Do you think you know everything about Tyra Banks? Well let's see about that! First of all Tyra has been modeling since she was only 15 years old! She said it was a life changing experience. Also she was the first African American Victoria's Secret model ever! But for being the most confident woman that I know of she says, "When I was younger I described myself as a tall beanpole who did not think I was beautiful at all". Well she has come a long way from then! She is the host and creator of America's Next Top Model, so she can help young people with a dream of a modeling career come true, and so they can follow in her footsteps! There are also rumors going around that she will no longer have the name Tyra Banks, she just wants it to be "Tyra" With no last name, what a strange decision!

             Well it's quite obvious that I love Tyra, but under all her stunning looks and her great sense of fashion, she is just an all around good person. I'm sure that I am not the only person that looks up to her! And I'm sure many more will in the future! I will always look up to Tyra, even if she becomes less famous, if that's even possible! I hope I have inspired you to love Tyra just like I do!
