Tyra Banks is brilliant! America would not be the same without her. She's an interesting (Notable quotes from last Wednesday's America's Next Top Model broadcast:
Ms. Banks encouraged fug contestant Jaslene, a Puerto Rican contestant (who has been referred to as "Little Miss Cha Cha" more than once on the program), to embrace her culture.
Tyra then gave us an example of what embracing your culture truly is. "I sit up here and snap my fingers and say, 'Girl, you lookin' hoochie!'" Tyra preached. "Because that's my culture."
Tyra's nonsense continued...
On Oprah: "I actually studied that Oprah episode and copied her body movements and phrases she used, exactly like she did them. She's my idol!"
On Self-love: "I was having trouble sleeping that night, so I got outta bed, went over to my computer, and Googled myself. This time I typed in Tyra fat�and, child, I had no idea what was about to pop up on that screen."
On Cellulite: "Usher was in the audience one year and I was soooooo paranoid that he saw my booty dimples."
On Looking Busted: "I looked so funny at the flea market with my award show hair and Ugg-type Timberland boots on. Oh well, I loved my hair and I didn't want it to go to waste so there I was at the flea market, looking kinda crazy, but FIERCE!!!!!"
On Herself, Rosa Parks 2.0: "I was the first African-American model to ever land the cover of that magazine. As we celebrate Black History Month this February, I can't help but be proud of what I accomplished a decade ago."
