Tyra Banks is one fierce competitor. After seeing several cycles of America's Next Top Model, fans know that Tyra is not someone you would like to mess with. She often has stories to tell about how she humbly started out in the modeling industry and how she came to be one of the world's most well-known (and highly paid) supermodels. Other than Top Model, Tyra Banks has also ventured into hosting a talk show in 2005 when she launched The Tyra Banks Show. The show often brands itself as empowering women and disputing discrimination.
In this light, CBS President and Chief Executive Leslie Moonves admits that she didn't expect Banks to have such creative ability and drive, in reference, of course, to the stereotypes afforded to models in general. She only realized how she was perhaps underestimating Tyra when her daughter told her that Top Model was her favorite show.
Over several episodes of America's Next Top Model, Tyra had repeatedly voiced her disgust over these stereotypes, and how she shunned them, and therefore want any aspiring model to do the same. She hates it when models are portrayed as beautiful but dumb mannequins whose only talent is smiling.
"I love when they think, Oh, she's just a model, she's going to sit there and do nothing I say: 'You think I'm just a model? Well, then, let me show you.'" Indeed, Banks loves competition and she always says bring it on. It is also this fighting spirit and competitive edge that she likes to shower on aspiring models on Top Model and is, ultimately, the goal of her talk show, too. And in the end she just ends up shocking people who underestimated her with her ability to rise to the occasion and prove them wrong.
America's Next Top Model's Tyra Banks is in the quest to find her one true love, her soul mate! Despite having a number of failed relationships in the past, like with Chris Webber, John Signleton, Giancarlo Marcaccini, Seal, Craig Taylor and Tyler Perry, Banks? perspective in the field of dating remains to be positive. Having a fiercely determined attitude towards finding Mr. Right also helps in framing her mind-set towards her love life goal.
Banks, a 33-year old African American former super model, was previously known for being one of the original Victoria's Secret Angels. She escalated to stardom when she graced the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue.
Also known as an author, an executive producer, and a movie actress, she now stars and is a judge on the reality television show America's Next Top Model and is a host of her own talk show called The Tyra Banks Show.
The successful celebrity also stands by her belief that her search for her ideal man is not someone she wants based on needs, stressing on the importance of being independent, a subject matter she often exemplifies on the show America's Next Top Model. Moreover, she emphasizes her exploration for Mr. Right as something based on her want and desire.
During America's Next Top Model cycle 7, she went through such a hard time dealing with her heartbreak, painfully admitting her disappointment and emotional damage. But her past experiences, being through a string of unfortunate relationships, made her a stronger person and has given her much wisdom in dealing with the affairs of the heart. And after much drama, her grasp over her relationship dilemmas has become lucid and clear. She adds, "You look back at the person you were crying over and realize they were never meant to be the one."
