8. Even people who have no interest whatsoever in fashion or gossip or whatever
have heard her name, seen her face everywhere for years.

It's not exactly a well kept secret, for sure!

4. A model who runs the show I watch over and over for no reason
America's Next Top Model. Complete waste of time, but I'll watch reruns again and again. Why? No clue.

35. Tyra also has a daytime talk show
I'm pretty sure that that's the one that Hillary was on (although I do wonder if Hillary was fierce!) :-)

12. i watch her talk show and some of the top model shows
i`m fascinated with her because it`s a rarity to see people entirely wrapped up in their own ego. all the wasted time was rewarded when i watched a well known rap star tell her to shut the fuck up....priceless!

38. The contestants all sucked. The final three??? Bleh.. I didn't even
watch the finale. I had no interest in who won. I liked Lisa and they got rid of her. Then I lost interest.

21. A train wreck fashion model with a TV show.
That girl needs help, starting with somebody stomping her ego back down to size.

29. "Train wreck?" She's very successful and her ego is no bigger than
Oprah's. :eyes: They both have huge egos but at least Tyra doesn't name everything after herself.

43. Oprah at least has a REASON for a titanic ego.
Tyra is, well, a very low-rent Oprah... and a bit less rational.

31. "America's Next Top Model"

36. I can't stop watching it either...
I'm going to do a paper on the myth of the "Plus size" model making it into the top 3 on that show.

40. Gawd ... what a relief ...
I'm NOT the only one who gets sucked into those Top Model marathons!! Can't take the talk show, though.


How about Project Runway? .......... somebody? ............ anybody?? .............

41. It's weird to me
that people who are so disdainful of supermodels are avid supporters of politicians. Is there any difference? At least Tyra always speaks her own mind instead of saying stuff people told her to say.
