I don't know what to do with my arms. It just makes me feel weird and I feel like people are looking at me and that makes me nervous.

More quotes by Tyra Banks
It was really hurtful to me. I get so much mail from young girls who say, 'I look up to you, you're not as skinny as everyone else, I think you're beautiful.' So when they say that my body is 'ugly' and 'disgusting,' what does that make those girls feel like?
Tyra Banks
Modeling is being a ho, but making it fashion.
Tyra Banks
I want to be like the athletes who seem stuck in time. When you see them at 50, you say they probably can still run like a champ.
Tyra Banks
I don't like looking at awards everyday because I feel like they can make you lazy. So, I give them to my Mom and let her look at it everyday. They are symbols of the hard work she put into me. Her sacrifices allowed me and my team to win those awards. But I don't look at any awards everyday.
Tyra Banks
My aunt used to call me light bulb head because my head is small at the bottom and bigger at the top. But it was a term of endearment.
Tyra Banks
I'm trying to build a strong business. I want to create new stars, new shows and new products for my audience and create a legacy that outlives me. There are so many other ways I want to reach women besides doing a talk show.
Tyra Banks
I don't like expensive things... I just can't help looking in a magazine for the splurge and the save.
Tyra Banks
Never dull your shine for somebody else.
Tyra Banks
I think I'm too young to be a mogul. I think I'm too young for that.
Tyra Banks
Stop saying these negative things about yourself. Look in the mirror and find something about yourself that's positive and celebrate that!
Tyra Banks
I'm a perfectionist. Sometimes I have to remind myself that it's okay if there are flaws here and there.
Tyra Banks
As a model, you're so used to taking your clothes off that you just don't care.
Tyra Banks
I loved planning 'The Tyra Show' more than actually having to do it. I loved coming up with show ideas, honing each program and crafting it. I'm more excited being in a meeting than being on TV.
Tyra Banks
Girls of all kinds can be beautiful from the thin, plus-sized, short, very tall, ebony to porcelain-skinned
Tyra Banks
Black women have always been these vixens, these animalistic erotic women. Why can't we just be the sexy American girl next door?
Tyra Banks
I had had an extroverted personality with a lot of friends, but when I lost the weight and grew so tall, I withdrew within myself.
Tyra Banks
My mother always told me that came first. I started modeling in 11th grade and it was something that I did after school and on the weekends. School is so important and modeling should be treated as an extracurricular activity as opposed to a career until you graduate high school.

I've been singing for six years. I've been in and out of the studios with top producers, but it wasn't something I was ready to express to the public or to the press. I wasn't ready to come out. I wanted to perfect my voice and be 100 percent positive that I could come out right.
Tyra Banks
I think it makes women feel better to find fault with other women. I do that, too.
Tyra Banks
I didn't have a job because nobody would hire me. My friends were getting hired, and I couldn't even get a job interview. That really rocked my self-esteem because I didn't understand what I did wrong on those job applications.
