Tyra Banks appears on the cover of this weekend's New York Times Magazine, and talks about her life as a model.
She says her biggest obstacle was that she was black and curvy. Her agent even made note of a list of designers who refused to book Tyra because of her hips and breasts. They even wanted her to go on a diet, and consider a career change!
Well it looks like Tyra definitely got the last word. With Top Model, and her talk show still very popular, she isn't going anywhere. Tyra says in the article that she wants to eventually get to Oprah status. Doesn't everybody? Well at the rate she's going, she just might get there!
