The woman in the picture is a victoria's secret supermodel turned tv host named Tyra Banks, she recently received destructive criticism from people saying that she's FAT. I personally thinks she still looks beautiful with her curves, she's already in her 30's so we can't expect her to be sickly stick thin models on the runway. Sexiness for me means being confident with your own body. She's currently hosting her own show "The Tyra Banks Show" and "America's Next Top Model" What do you think? Is she fat or sexy?

Tyra Banks is one sexy woman. I think she looks gorgeous with her curvy body. She's toned, she's in shape, she's got amazing skin and a beautiful face and beautiful hair... how can anyone say she isn't a sensual, beautiful woman? She has an amazing body that I think is far more sexy than those twiggy, sickly looking models that look like they'll blow away in a strong breeze. Women aren't supposed to look like twelve year old boys, after all.

I agree with you. I was thought that being skinny is great but when I saw her after she retired from modelling, she gained some weight but she's sexy. Now I'm trying to gain weight to have curves. Thanks for replying!

DITTO! People who call Tyra sick are clearly low in the self esteem department themselves and trying to compensate for some flaw in themselves by tearing her down. Tyra is awesome, inside and out.

Tyra looks great, like a normal healthy woman. That is what is so wrong with our society. If a women is healthy and not a size 1, we call them fat. Crazy!!! Maybe we should just accept people in all sizes and shapes, and stop being so superficial.

If tyra is fat, then i'm obese. I do not think Tyra's fat. She's still very curvaceous and beautiful despite the weight gain. I'm really saddenned by how the press handled this issue.

I wouldn't be considering her for my future ex-wife if I considered her fat. Tyra is freaking gorgeous and a very sweet person on top of that.

I love that the modeling world is finally realizing these stick thin models are NOT right. Tyra is far from "fat". She's very sexy looking. I am 'fat'... Tyra isn't even close! lol

Yes but there is still one or two fashion capitals where they do not think that banning stick thin models is necessary. Thanks for replying.

Excellent post and excellent point. You can look at someone and think that they are very attractive and the person next to you can look at them and think that they are too short, tall, thin or fat. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and the sooner people get that into their minds, the better off everyone will be.

Tyra has got a great figure. You don't have to be thin to be beautiful. She looks healthy, and natural and has curves in all the right places. I aree that sexy means confident with your owen body and your appearance.

Okay, 1st lets get it straight. Tyra banks is NOT fat. That was a topic on her show this past week. She explained that the media altered those pics to have a story and that was untrue. She has gained weight but she is still slim. Check her web site for details at www.tyrashow.com all the info is there under "Tyra confronts her critics". Go look!

Tyra seemed like a 'real' person unlike the other supermodels who tries their best to sound & look nice on tv but are the exact opposite in real life.

I think she looks awesome. I am so sick of people claiming that all these celebritys that look like skeletons are attractive. Women are meant to be curvy and Tyra is rocking those sexy curves. I admire the celebritys like Drew Barrymore, Kate Winslet that don't let the hype get to them. They are what real women are meant to look like. Just because you have a little meat on your bones does not make you fat. I don't see how you can find bones covered in skin sexy any how. Most men I have asked prefer a little curve.

agreed with your toattly, she is hot and she will forever be hot. probably one of my favorite models...someone i can admire and i hope other girls look up to her as well. she is sexy and she is NOT fat. and she was right in her rebutul...anyone who insults ANYONE about their looks, weight, or because they're not the basic hollywood beauty should kiss my FAT BUTT!!! i personally think a little meat on a womans bones does make her look sexier then todays models. the plus size ones are always more appealing then the fashion runway models.

I have seen this picture and just last week she held a special show due to this picture. I guess that they made her look larger than she really is, she was very upset over the whole ordeal. I would of been to. She said that she has actually only gained 10 pounds but they made her look like she had gained more than 50 pounds. I think that what they did with this picture was wrong but even if she had gained that much she is still very beautiful. It is unfair how people treat our stars out there.

I think Tyra is beautiful. I think she already made a mark in the fashion scene and whether or not she gains a few measly pounds, she's still a lot of people's favorite. She has beautiful skin, she stays fit and I think she's smart as well. Now that's sexy!
