More quotes by 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.

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 won't say if I'm single or dating or married or divorced. There's boundaries.
Tyra Banks
Well, I don't think of myself as a diva. I'm too dorky! Look at my shoes. (Points to the aforementioned sneakers.) I always look like this. I don't always want to be working.
Tyra Banks
I was always a good student. I wasn't the A-plus student, but I studied really hard, and I probably had a 3.2. I always wished that I had the capacity to get straight A's, but I didn't. I didn't beat myself up about it, but I really studied hard for my grades.
