On her show she told the audience that she couldn't go on stage during an episode that was documenting strippers....But most of her fame is from Victoria Secret Modeling and posing for Sport Illustrated Swim suit edition. I know she is gorgeous... but does she think that we are fools. Someone who has dated(slept) with movie producers to get film roles.... and started modeling in Europe shouldn't be that closed minded. Come on! Comments please:

For those who are wondering, there was a movie called "Higher Learning" made in 1995. She got the role because she was dating John Singleton at the time... Go figure! This was way before she was doing the actress/ TV stuff. But a lot of people suspected that she was casted because of her relationship with the director.

I like Tyra, but you have a very good point. "Those in glass houses..." lol Right on for pointing that out.

I don't think she's a hipocrite because of the modeling underwear. Stripping is flaunting your body for sexually erotic entertainment. Modeling underwear is the showing of a product. She didn't get the roll in higher learning because she was dating John Singleton, she acted before higher learning and after. She was a regular on the fresh prince of bel-air and she has had many TV appearances as far back as 1991. I think her "realness' is hipocritcal. She claims to be so real and so understanding and is always claiming "I'm hood this" "I grew up here and lived a hard life" but she has been modeling since she was about 13 and moved to paris. So that whole hood girl thing she can really keep to herself. Plus, I love top model, but think she needs a reality check if she thinks plus sized models are in the same running as slim models. She's always telling the plus size models to accept their large bodies, but she decided to retire when her bdy began to get larger then the regular slim models.

Modeling underwear professionally is much different than flaunting your goodies for a bunch of sex-hungry males.
As for you saying that she slept with movie producers to get film roles....what is your source? Has she said that?
Sounds like you are just jealous that Tyra is beautiful, smart, and business-savvy.

IMO, I always thought she was a little hypocritical because she tells girls not to fall into the "skinny is beautiful" trap, but yet turns around and does "America's Next Top Model", which is almost exclusively skinny chicks. But that's just me and my opinion.

Tyra Banks is a young women trying to make money before her turn in the sun is over. She sets her own standards and as long as she thinks she hasn't crossed them.......

Everyone is a hypocrite, even you and me.
Cut her some slack.
Be mad at our president if you want to be mad at a hypocrite.
