Tyra. One of those black women? Or just into white men?

hell noo, she is too fake imo, I think a good role model says what he or she actually thinks, not what others wants to hear..


haha I think I have a love/hate approach towards her

Well, in my opinion, it doesn't matter what time something was, if I perceive it as being important, then it's important to post and reply, regardless of when it occurred.

This is what Jill Scott had to say relating to the Tyra Banks issue. She said this shortly after she divorced from her husband, who was a BM. Powerful words are expressed when she airs out her grievances only about this particular interracial relationship between black males and white females. Why doesn't she talk about the other kind of relationship, which involves white guys and black girls? I logged on to my Facebook this morning and saw that Erika (BW) was now in a relationship with Jonathan (WM). So right within my area, it's happening and of course these BW that bash us in articles don't have a problem with it. It's nothing more than hypocrisy and a double-standard.

Neo-Soul diva, Jill Scott, who was recently left to be a single mother after having a child with a man she's been with for years, has recently opened up about the idea of interracial relationships and even penned an article describing her personal experience with the topic. Here's what she wrote for Essence magazine:

My new friend is handsome, African-American, intelligent and seemingly wealthy. He is an athlete, loves his momma, and is happily married to a White woman. I admit when I saw his wedding ring, I privately hoped. But something in me just knew he didn’t marry a sister. Although my guess hit the mark, when my friend told me his wife was indeed Caucasian, I felt my spirit…wince. I didn’t immediately understand it. My face read happy for you. My body showed no reaction to my inner pinch, but the sting was there, quiet like a mosquito under a summer dress.

Was I jealous? Did the reality of his relationship somehow diminish his soul’s credibility? The answer is not simple. One could easily dispel the wince as racist or separatist, but that’s not how I was brought up. I was reared in a Jehovah’s Witness household. I was taught that every man should be judged by his deeds and not his color, and I firmly stand where my grandmother left me. African people worldwide are known to be welcoming and open-minded. We share our culture sometimes to our own peril and most of us love the very notion of love. My position is that for women of color, this very common “wince” has solely to do with the African story in America.

When our people were enslaved, “Massa” placed his Caucasian woman on a pedestal. She was spoiled, revered and angelic, while the Black slave woman was overworked, beaten, raped and farmed out like cattle to be mated. She was nothing and neither was our Black man. As slavery died for the greater good of America, and the movement for equality sputtered to life, the White woman was on the cover of every American magazine. She was the dazzling jewel on every movie screen, the glory of every commercial and television show. She was unequivocally the standard of beauty for this country, firmly unattainable to anyone not of her race. We daughters of the dust were seen as ugly, nappy mammies, good for day work and unwanted children, while our men were thought to be thieving, sex-hungry animals with limited brain capacity.

We reflect on this awful past and recall that if a Black man even looked at a White woman, he would have been lynched, beaten, jailed or shot to death. In the midst of this, Black women and Black men struggled together, mourned together, starved together, braved the hoses and vicious police dogs and died untimely on southern back roads together. These harsh truths lead to what we really feel when we see a seemingly together brother with a Caucasian woman and their children. That feeling is betrayed. While we exert efforts to raise our sons and daughters to appreciate themselves and respect others, most of us end up doing this important work alone, with no fathers or like representatives, limited financial support (often court-enforced) and, on top of everything else, an empty bed. It’s frustrating and it hurts!

Our minds do understand that people of all races find genuine love in many places. We dig that the world is full of amazing options. But underneath, there is a bite, no matter the ointment, that has yet to stop burning. Some may find these thoughts to be hurtful. That is not my intent. I’m just sayin’.

Although, Jill Scott is often termed one of the more honest celebrities in the music industry, it's pretty clear that the sting was slightly larger than a mosquito bite - maybe a Khepra beetle?

Sorry Frau Klum by a knockout

The only thing Tyra's got over Frau Klum is that she doesn't have a million kids yet.

I actually liked Tyra back in the 90s when she was just a model...before she started talking.

She's unentertaining and such a pathetic sob story. She actually tries to make it seem that she's over come so much.
You get to be the first black super model of Sports Illustrated and you make millions based on just being good looking then you get a shitty modeling show that rakes in more millions and a shitty talk show.

This woman has no talent yet she lives like a Queen. Its a little disgusting.
