Tyra Banks was subject to a lot of criticism and hate after
a picture of her looking quite big in a bathing suit was published in a tabloid.
The tabloid was making fun of her recent weight gain at the time. Tyra
dedicated a whole show to this event in order to get back at the tabloid and
send a strong message about body image to women everywhere. She wore the same swimsuit that was in the
picture to prove that she did not gain as much weight as was stated in the
tabloid and to prove that she is human and that it’s natural to gain and lose weight.
She sent a strong message to women that no one is perfect and that even if she
was that big that she is still beautiful. Tyra went on to explain that real
women’s weight naturally fluctuates and that there is nothing wrong with that
even though society seems to say otherwise especially when it comes to media.
