Did anyone else see Tyra Banks trying to speak Spanish on her show?

Question

Ok...so I'll admit, about 10 years ago...loved Tyra. Before the ego and such and I know she's out there doin' the damn thing, but her ego makes me sick...And then, to think for her to think that her high school Spanish would be enough to converse with this native speaker on tv...And there was a translator there. What an insult to her...she probably studied her whole life to be a translator and here you have Tyra with her big ego (and belly, breasts and five head to go with it) thinking that she could do this woman's job...wow....what a pair on her...(and I don't mean those up top)

Answer 1

I still have a headache from that show...wtf was she thinking? You are right, the girl has gotten a bit too big for her britches, and now she acts as if she is a therapist when speaking to her guests...what really bugs me is that if she is so damn happy with her weight gain, why did she have to tell the medai to "kiss her fat @ss" and wwhen she did top model, that tirade to the one model was totally unprofessional and she looked like Whitney Houston when she was on crack...

Answer 2

Don't even. How do you know it was only her high school spanish. What if she took it in college WHICH as a matter of she did. She wanted to try and converse with her and she did a good job. She paid the translator. It's her show and she can do what she wants. Tyra is not fat.

Answer 3

I think it was respectful for her to try and speak with the woman you are talking about. She did tell that woman that she was a poor speaker. I don't think it is your place to judge if that was appropriate or not.

Also, it is honorable for Trya to do shows on weight gain. Did you see how many woman in the audience were crying when she did that show?? Because it touches people.

It seems you are very insensitive.

And I'm not a Tyra freak or anything, just trying to be compassionate.

Answer 4

actually no i didn't...but what a screw ball that horrible!!
