Tyra Comes Up at Emmy’s
Posted by Bossip Staff
Tyra Banks won an Emmy last night for her talk show game. Whether or not you respect her weave game, you have to give it up to her professional swag. Tyra gave props to Oprah when accepting her award:
“I want to thank Oprah Winfrey for her inspiration. She is the queen. She will always be the queen.” Banks also mentioned, “My mama is crying like a baby.”
Congrats.

1st…as it should be!!!!!
Good for Tyra..I guess her dream of becoming Oprah is finally coming true!!
Thirrrrdddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
She’s earned it, especially for the cross-over challenges.

So does that mean this hoe is gonna wind up rich, fat and a closet dyke?
@ St Boner,
That’s wrong on so many levels! Stop hating on O and she’s not gay! She tells everything else so if she was, I’m sure she would not have a problem admitting it. You should be celebrating that Black Women are becoming so powerful!!
I can’t believe they gave her an Emmy. Her show is trash and if that is what it takes to win than there is hope for the View. Tyra is no Oprah and never will be. I hate her show!
I am really not feeling the blond lace front but whatever………..All these sistas are going to be walking around with edges like Naomi all in the name of fast & easy to apply temporary beauty. If its that easy, something has to be wrong. My stylist told me they only take about 15 minutes to glue around the entire head.
Let’s keep these Koreans in business.
CONGRATULATIONS MISS TYRA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I know she must be happy as hell for this one, another milestone. Good for you girl!
good for her!
i love the Tyra Banks show, however, i hate that damn weave!
This is a true acknowledgement of KARMA. The same day Tyra win an Emmy , Naomi Cambell is sentence for another assault. I was surprise to hear Naomi didn’t catch another case last night. I would hate to be near her when she found out Tyra won an Emmy. She spent so much time & negative energy harrassing Tyra behind the scenes instead of preparing for life after the catwalk. Naomi has burned so many bridges as a coked up insecure diva that her end is near.
My parents always taught me that the best revenge is success.
Hopefully she will tone down her overzealousness!
Congrats Tyra!
How this bitch can win over Maury Povich is beyond me. At least his shit is informative and has save many of niggas from paying a gang of child support to a bunch of scandilous hoes.
I don’t think Tyra’s show deserves an Emmy at all, especially not when she did the show where all the girls took their pants off. Yes, I understood the “theme” or concept, but at this point she is in her 30’s and should be talking about more serious issues.
Y por favor, get rid of the blonde weave already. She looked good with the reddish hair but she is becoming a caricture of herself. She even admitted that its hard for men to accept her without all that stuff on. So with that being said, maybe she needs to do a show about loving the REAL you.
Oh quit it, Naomi is not thinking about no Tyra Banks.
It’s Tyra that keeps brinigng up old crap.
Nonetheless, while I’m not a fan of hers, I won’t poop on her win. So, congratz on that Emmy, Tyra.
She doesnt deserve to win a fuckin emmy, she is a female!
Congratulations Tyra, you deserve all the success.
Its bad enough women are allowed to vote, but women shouldnt be able to win emmys!
Booooooo! Give them back that emmy and get in the kitchen where u are supposed to be!!!
Yeah congrats but the best thing about her unwatchable show are the hilarious clips on Talk Soup
Congrats, Tyra! Shake the haters and keep it moving, girl.
Tyra wins for “informative show” WTF? what is informative about Tyra’s show? America’s next top model is more informative than that damn show. Since when did grabbing other women’s booty and telling people to kiss your fat ass became informative? the world has gone mad.
JESUS TAKE THE WHEEL!!
Her hair looks horrible
correction: her WIG looks horrible
Hannibal, isn’t it past your bedtime. I know you’re out of school for the summer, but you should really stopy pretending that you are an adult.
LMAO! Just becuz u are the only one who watches her show doesn’t mean u have to start shit me nigga!
Congrats on the win Tyra.
However, what was the Emmy committee thinking? Tyra’s show is garbage!!! Tyra will never be Oprah, so she can hang that one up. I agree with an earlier post…the only thing good about her show are the clips I get to to see on “Talk Soup”
How come the rest of you deep south hoes with blonde weaves dont look like Tyras?
Oh I forgot, I’m in Los Angeles right now and Ive already taken pictures of 3 deep south fat b*tches with blonde nappy weaves, All I did was walk up to them and ask where they were from and if i could take their picture and they all said “Fa Sho”
Im gonna find some way to post that sh*t in here, then we’ll see if i’m making sh*t up! So far i have one Florida and two Alabama’s
Her hair is tooooo blond. Was she tryin to match her dress?
I wish she would kiss these…\\\
What kind of cooking you like Hannibal?
And how old are you Hannibal?
I am ummm…25….. how about yourself…
Great job Tyra. Even though many say that you’re a whack job, I like that you were focused from the beginning and went for it. Many in the community should take note of Tyra’s blueprint for success!
Good for Tyra!!!!!!!!!!
She is a positive role model for women. She may not make sense sometimes but she understands the need for a young woman to represent!
She’s a female, she ain’t a role model!
Her hair is awfully blonde….

I love Tyra! Go girl. Hate the weave tho boo!!
@Hannibal
Please stop it before someone track you down and then fuck you up!
I like Tyra I have nothing bad to say about her…She is a sweet girl.
I hate black women in blond. I am not overly fond of her show but very proud of Tyra in general. She is an excellent role model for young black women. Do your thing Tyra and congrats.
Black women do not need to wear blonde! It’s just not cute. But I still like Tyra congrats!
Tyra is doing it.
tyra fine
WAY TO GOOOOOO TY TY! I love you! Watch your show all the time! You look gorgeous. You deserved this. You’re so pretty and so intelligent and just an inspiration to me and I’m sure millions of other black girls out there! Do the damn thing honey!
and for all the girls hatin on her hair. STFU! Ya’ll just mad you can’t pull off the blonde. Don’t get mad because it goes good with her complexion. She shows us dark skinned sisters much of the love that the entertainment industry fails to do. She acknowledges that dark skinned women don’t get as much praise as they deserve. So please do not get mad at her because she is light skinned and can pull off a blonde hair weave. My fucking goodness.
YAY TYRA!!! YOU GO GIRL, BUT PLEASE DITCH THE BLOND WIG!!!!!!
TYRA NO LONGER LOOKS LIKE A BLACK WOMAN. I CANNOT RELATE TO HER.
I really used to like her, but ANTM is turning into some next kind of show and The Tyra Show was really good, but she doesn’t tackle the real issues.
You know what she says to little black girls? The only way you can really make it is to dye your hair blonde and get as far away from what it is to resemble a black woman.
Im so damn sick of this “White Woman Look”. Blonde…! This shit is really starting to get on my nerves. And all that damn weave…my goodness what is the hell is going on with black folk.
danDAN – Im sorry you just said what I thinking….I should have read your post first…Just plain sickening.
ooooooweee that is a real serious lace front on Tyra
anyways congrats to the queen of weave!

OMG are you on a crusade! LMAOOOOOOOOOO
take it easy
@Maurice
I’m not hating on her hair. I’m sure Tyra has beautiful hair. I’m hating on her ugly blonde wig. We, black women, have made much progress on many fronts. But when it comes to our hair, a lot of black women act like they just got off the plantation. Just take a look at the show biz sistas – 99% of them wear faux European hair. What is wrong with black hair!!!

damn your dark skinned with damn common sense! god bless you! you right her skin tone she can pull it off better then a dark skin woman could but that blond shit is ugly no lie. only black woman that can pull off blond is beyonce her face looks right with it and her skin tone. but mary j is to damn dark for that skin tone she looks super ghetto a hot mess.
well im happy for tyra banks silly ass. the rest are just haters cuz at least black women do get ahead before black men
hate bitch
Goodmorning all,
Congrads on the Emmy Tyra
1st @ 6am you are a fool, I am @ my desk crackin up!!
and all black women wont look like Tyra because they dont have the money, and Tyra herself should have picked another look the hair color is just not right w/ her make up. and thats fo sho……
2nd @ Dandan and Dr. Tooth are u guys serious ? Tyra is far from a white women, I am not a big fan of 4 head but on her show she gets down to busy and is always tryin to up lift women and men, black or white and thats what I like about her.
And besides who wants to turn on the tv and always see someone gettin help or hand outs that is so over rated I dont see how u can say she doesnt deal w/ real issues. Have yall watch the show lately?
Bossip, why don’t you post some pictures of Eva Marcille (Pigford?). This sista did it right. She looked so pretty.
BTW, I just saw the rest of Tyra’s red carpet pics. She is pretty with a great figure, but i can’t decide what is more hideous – her dress or her wig!
and @ maurice, I dont think anyone is hatin on Tyra at all, the majority of the comments say the same thing the hair color is not cute. Thats not hate sweetie thats the truth. The hair color blends right in w/ the dress and the make up and it looks like she has make up around her edges like someone outlined her edges w/ a blond marker. Im not hatin because Tyra is always up to par and on her game but someone dropped the ball w/ this one. The color should have been more in the brown family.
Aw Lawd, not another Barbie wannabe
there are many black woman who can pull of blond hair, if you notice, blond white woman, specially nordic blonds get a very dark golden tan in the summer, similar to that of some mixed black lightskinned woman, so it CAN work!
Not a big fan of Tyras show, and I think her blond hair looks a bit “dry” in the edges, but she manages to pull of the color at least.
She looks absolutely hideous!
she looks gorgeous and she’s a wonderful role model for black girls
I personally like her hair. And I doubt she gives a fuck what any of ya’ll think anyway. She’s gorgeous, rich, and successful.
the hair is not looking so good
ooooo the hatin is out in full force. tyra doin the damn thing and she look good. blonde hair or not. stop hating black women. learn to be happy for one another. grow up
she looks gorgeous
love her bracelet! she’s so effing pretty! watch her show tons! love her hair and the whole outfit.
Damn she looks like Beyonce there!
Congrats Tyra for the emmy, you deserve it!
It was nice of her to mention Oprah aswell.
The Emmys are wack as hell..i can’t believe they gave Tyra a damn Emmy..i’m so disappointed..who was she up against? they might as well gave that Emmy to Dora the Explorer that shit is more informative then Tyra smiling with her eyes!
actually there are plenty of black women with naturally blonde hair, look at the aborignees and some parts of africa, as example.
tyra looks great… but them lace fronts, messes up the hair line.. for sure..
tyra need to stop wit them dusty old lace fronts….still good for her I didn’t think her show was gonna last but she works it…
I DONT WATCH TYRA SHOW BUT I THINK SHE IS A SWEET GIRL. I KNOW SHE IS BETTER THEN THAT VASELINE WEARING NAOMI CAMPBELL.
Tyra is right to thank the QUEEN…
that is the QUEEN OF LACEFRONTS–> OPRAH
1)OPRAH
2)TYRA
3)BEYONCE
lol
OMG! Tyra’s hair looks just like my yorkies hair after he has come from the groomers! Same texture, color, and everything.
This is why these “awards” show have lost a lot of credibility. I like Tyra Banks and all but her talk show is WACK! I would have given them more credit if she would have won for ANTM, which is much better than her talk show.
And that lacefront, I’mma leave alone.
congrats Tyra!!!LOL
but i did not know her hair was blonde now not a good look.
BOOOOO! Give that back, you don’t deserve it!
Congrats Tyra!!
Congratulations to Tyra.
test
Alright Tyra!! Congrats, and I love the pic too!
tyra won the yellow contest with that ucked up weave.
@TYRA LOOKS PRETTY WITH THAT HAIR COLOR SHE LOOK LIKE BARBIE.AND SHE MAY JUST HAD THAT STYLE FOR THAT NIGHT.
urgh Bossip!

My point exactly…she is sooooo “FAR” from white. I know this. I can see this and believe me it’s obvious to white america too. She is black…so my only question is “WHY THE DAMN BLONDE HAIR”. Get a grip.
We as a culture have come so far, the only positive thing thats happening when she buys that Blonde Weave, is that she sends another Korean to college.
CONGRATS ON YOUR AWARD TYRA. AS FOR YOUR NEW LOOK
. YOU TRY TO HARD TO LOOK LIKE BEYONCE! IT’S NOT WORKING.
That hair color is sickening. And she has a long way to go before she’s reaches Oprah’s status. She has to work on not being so annoying first.
YEA!! FOR TYRA. And ya’ll know can’t nobody rock a lace front wig like Tyra Banks. She always looks good. Love your show Tyra and I love you for helping out the young black sistahs get into the modeling industry. Because without you, we wouldn’t be talking about Eva Diva, Dani Evan, YaYa, Tocarra, Shaliesha, or anybody else for that matter.
She has flipped her game and followed the Oprah blueprint all the way down to the Emmy. Go Tyra!!
Talk show – check, production company – check, producing original programs – check, daytime Emmy – check, financial independence – check, respect from the industry – priceless!
Congrats!!I love Tyra and her show but please loose the blond weave!!! Not a good look…
“You know what she says to little black girls? The only way you can really make it is to dye your hair blonde and get as far away from what it is to resemble a black woman.”
Just out of curiousity – what is the black male saying to little black girls when he constantly dogs her or abandons her and his baby or abandoned her as a father or passes her over for white and other non black women??
Tyra’s weave is the LEAST of a young black girls problems..
Maybe they’re giving out emmy’s just cause you show up! Tyra’s show is not an award winning show and probably never will be. She is the luckiest woman on the planet..she’s no where near as stylish as her mentally incapacitated counter part – Naomi, she couldn’t touch Oprah if Oprah was sitting in her lap and she isn’t as witty as Joy Behar! Tyra’s talent is limited at best, that’s why the one thing she is good at is putting down the wanna be’s on America’s next top model! She makes them feel like shit, she then feels like she’s where she should be.. sitting next to Miss J!
Thought that was LaLa
Tyra does in fact get the gas face for this hairdon’t. lol
I was surprised with all her money that she does not have a better weave
The dress is lookin’ a bit WALMAR Damn Tyra get a designer! And while you’re at it get some help with that 4head! You need to camoflage that sucka with some bangs, a blanket something damn!
