Tyra spoke up about her weight in People magazine, saying that:
“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? I still feel hot, but every day is different. It’s when I put on those jeans that used to fit a year ago and don’t fit now and give me the muffin top, that’s when I say, ‘Damn!’ […] If I was in pain, I would have dieted. The pain is not there–the pain is someone printing a picture of me and saying those (horrible) things.”
It’s good to hear an ex-model feel comfortable enough about her weight to talk about Muffin Top, one of the worst wardrobe afflictions known to man. Tyra’s honesty is commendable, along with her healthy self image.
