You wanna be on top? Tyra Banks certainly is, covering Essence magazine’s 55th anniversary issue.
…
Photographed by Kenny Germé, the supermodel delves into losing her home to the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, her America’s Next Top Model legacy, and menopause in her new feature interview by Brooklyn White. “There are so many things in my whole career that I would do differently,” she says. “Lots of things. But the crazy thing is, I had a talk show for five years. There were things on Top Model that we did, and I’m like, ‘I shouldn’t have done that.’ Y’all let me know that was whack. I would mention it on the talk show, and apologize. Or I wrote a book, and in it, I talked about it: ‘Oh, I said this on Top Model,’ and ‘I shouldn’t have done this, even though it would have hurt their career.’” The Essence piece isn’t TyTy’s only major news! She’s also switched modeling agencies, and is now represented by IMG Models—which repped her at the start of her career.
