More quotes by Tyra Banks
I am totally against plastic surgery. A lot of people think I have breast implants because I have the biggest boobs in the business. But I was a 34C when I was 17...They stay up when I wear a push-up bra. But if people could see me when I come home and take off my bra, how could they think these are fake?
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
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 not just retiring from the runway, I'm retiring from all modeling. God, I love saying that! When I was 18, my mom said I have to have a plan. I decided I'd leave on top. 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.

Girls of all kinds can be beautiful.

I think my magical dream land would have all of my friends from high school and elementary school. I'm extremely nostalgic so my closest friends are people from my childhood.

I don't go to the cool, trendy restaurants. I go to either the holes in the wall or the super-fancy restaurants where there are no cool people.
Tyra Banks
I liked college guys but they could tell I was just a skinny girl.

You can have all the potential in world, but unless you have confidence, you have nothing.
Tyra Banks
I was embarrassed when a businessman friend asked, 'What's the yearly budget of your talk show? What's the per-episode budget?' And I looked at him with these blank, typical-model eyes and said, 'I don't know.' I call myself a businesswoman and I don't know that? So that is my goal next year - to really dissect the budget.
Tyra Banks
It was hard to get guys to notice me, period, because I was so skinny and all my friends were curvy. Plus, I used to be very nervous in front of guys.
Tyra Banks
Because my hands are rough and wrinkley, they are my least favourite feature. An ex-boyfriend used to call them 'Freddy Kreuger' fingers.
Tyra Banks
Journalists told me that a talk show wouldn't work. Some told me I was going to get canceled before my first season was up.
Tyra Banks
Once you plant seeds of success, your tree will bear fierce fruit.
Tyra Banks
Love every part of yourself. Even the things that frustrate you. They make you who you are!
Tyra Banks
Use romantic relationships to grow, not to lose yourself. Keep your priorities in order.
Tyra Banks
It's not like I want to hop on a bandwagon, because I said it 15 years ago - bringing a child into your life who is not genetically yours is one of the most beautiful things you can do. But I'm also interested in having my own baby, too.
Tyra Banks
Most of my career is spent in a meeting... dressed sharply, looking really great negotiating over a table, strategizing or coming up with new marketing plans or new ideas. And that makes me really, really happy.
Tyra Banks
I wanted to be a film and television writer and producer.

I've helped some of my classmates on how to strategize to get to the next level of their businesses. And it's interesting, because here I am sitting there from the entertainment industry and the fashion industry, and I'm giving a billionaire that has a business that's been in his family for 300 years - I'm giving him advice about strategy!
