Tyra Banks is planning to adopt a child
Supermodel-turned-talk show host Tyra Banks is planning to adopt a child. The 34-year-old wants to follow in the footsteps of celebrities including Madonna, Sharon Stone, and Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt by opening her home to a child in need.
She says, “I’ve wanted to adopt since I was nine. I have a connection with children and they don’t have to come from my womb for me to have that connection.”

She needs to first connect with her staff, and pay them accordingly.

Tyra is an overrated and annoying hag who encourages women to be fat. Cant stand her. I watched some show where she was telling women to ‘throw out their skinny jeans’ and NONE of these women should have been throwing them out, they were all OVERWEIGHT and Tyra was enabling them by saying its ok. Well its NOT OK for women to be a size 14 and Tyra shouldn’t encourage people to be fat and lazy just cuz she is.

I think it’s perfectly okay to be a size 14, as long as you’re healthy fit. A larger size does not automatically and irrevocably equal overweight. Get a grip, Tyra Sux. And before you go calling me a fattie, I’m a size 6, so don’t even go there . . .

Hey Jackass (Tyra sux) not cause your fat means your lazy. I know quite a fair share of underweight young ladies that are beyond lazy. I also know women who do not fit the mainstream “thin” that are more active than me (a size two). I don’t believe she is condoning obesity but more so empowering women with low self esteem due to the fact that may not fit the mainstream idealistic size 2. I eat like a pig i just don’t gain weight. I’m probably more unhealthy than women three times my size, but no one would know because i look like the perfect size as they always say. It’s not flattering to me cause people should feel ok with themselves if they don’t fit the model image.

Tyra Sux, it’s sad you feel a size 14 is fat. So many young girls struggle with body image and self esteem because of people like you. There is more to a person than the size they wear.

I think that Tyra is doing an excellent job. She has brought my spirits up just with her words. All woman need curves. Stick thin and unhealthy is not the road us woman should be on. Tyra keep it up and THANK YOU!!

It’s very noble to want to adopt. With all her endeavors will she have the time for a child?
