She’s Not Fat, You Just Caught Her At An “Unflattering Angle”

January 25, 2007

I’m sure you remember our previous post about Tyra Banks’ recent weight gain. Well, Tyra is finally talking about all the flack she got for those unflattering pictures in the latest edition of People Magazine. Her explanation is that it’s true she has gained some weight, but the paparazzi photos exaggerated her size by catching her at an “unflattering angle”. (Hmmmm) She also says that TV execs for her talk show suggested that she gain some weight to make her more relatable to her audience.

By her account she’s 5′10″ and 161 pounds and says that she’s only gained 30 pounds since her modeling days. She asserts that she still feels sexy and since she’s no longer a model she doesn’t feel the need to be confined by those weight standards. Maybe she has a point!!! (But don’t we all know that People cover is airbrushed to perfection)

I call Bullshit on Tyra. I love the girl with her weaves and high forehead, but baby ain’t 161 in those photos. Unless all the weight went to her thighs and booty, but that middle section is telling on Tyra!

That cow is way heavier than 161 - I have a friend who’s a voluptuous woman at 5′4″ and 180 [I'm gay so it's not "that" kind of friend] and there is NO WAY that if we stretched my gal pal up to 5′11 she’d look like Tyra - she’d be skinnier looking by a long shot. Tyra is well over 200# in this photo and is lying her fat flabby cellulite ridden ass off to claim she’s an ounce under 200 big ones. I’d say she’s probably 220 in this photo. Massive thighs, flabby ass, huge flappy titties! PUKEFEST!!!

I guess she really is the poor woman’s Oprah..right down to the massive proportions and flab.
