Tranny Swag

Posted by Bossip Staff

Tyra, who has been looking a bit ‘off’ these days, speaks about being stylish in NYC at an event she hosted this weekend:

“You walk the streets of New York and people see you – you gotta look cute. I try to make sure it’s foolproof. That’s why I decided to host this – because I feel like in New York, you have to be popping. Even a simple black dress, you have to do that here. There’s no excuse to not look right. If you catch me looking busted, I deserve the worst dressed list.”

Perhaps she should take her own advice.

  1. Tyra can look very scary from time to time. If she tried the HUFF program @ HealZoo she would always be on top of her game..

  2. Ms. Toson

    Only Tyra Banks can pull off the transgendered look and get away with it. I call it her get out of fashion jail free card.

  3. Robert!

    Third. If I see that Oprah/Miss Universe dress ONE MORE TIME…

  4. Ms. Toson

    Then again, she looks like a wiccan in ceremonial ritual/spell casting attire.

  5. eiphlurt
  6. Corree

    I cannot believe she sits behind that table and critiques those girls from week to week. Telling them they look like they came from the mall or some ish like that. If this is the best she can do, she needs to take her own advice and put on a pair of jeans and a wifebeater.

  7. Hot Sauce

  10. Trish

    C*****ie has the meanest shoe game next to Charlize Theron and Gwyneth Paltrow. Dania Ramirez always looks fab. I liked that dress better on Oprah than Tyra.

  11. 1TruDiva w/The PlatinumVocals is *****ed at the cyber-pedofile!!!

    I’m with you, Corree—

    That’s one of the things that irritates the hell out of me with Tyra–coupled with the fact that she always brings up her modeling days no matter what the subject is about!

    Hypocrite!

    Note to Tyra–

    Let the ***** go and give someone else a chance to shine! That’s hat they make photo albums for!!!!!

  12. 1TruDiva w/The PlatinumVocals is *****ed at the cyber-pedofile!!!

  14. tara

  15. Lovely Brown (The 1st)

    SMH


  16. Who the HECK is Veronica Webb? I always think of the show Veronica Mars. Is shea video girl?? Either way, she is pretty just do not know what she is on….or Dania for that matter. Im suprised Oprah does not party more with Gayle, cause Gayle be on it!

  17. tiggyy

    A few things to note @ both Coree and ITruDiva (are you kidding mw with that name?) anyway, Trya is just preparing these girls for the reality that they will encounter in the modeling world, the same remarks ALL models get from people in the indusrty. Surley you don’t think she tells the models these things just for good tv

  18. 1truDiva (Where's My Martin Luffa King Fan? Ooooh That ***** gave me the Holy Ghost last night)

    Twiggy

    Why whatever do you mean? Lol!!!!!!!

  19. Candid Canuck

    Tyra seems like one of those f$%^ked up broads that if you sex with she would be an emotional wreck quoting bible scriptures during and after sex and stuff… SMDH


  20. She looks like she’s ready to cast a spell on someone…ugh she is so not relevant. Bring out Miss Wendy please lol

  21. Corree

    @ tiggyy my point is this: If you’re gonna critique young ladies on a day to day basis, make sure your always on point. That’s the message she’s telling the girls, and a LOT of times, Tyra looks broke off herself.

  22. joey bishop

    tyra banks could be fine if she wanted to be.but she shot! i’d be scarred to *****,cause ol girl seem physcotic.she’ll do a ***** like brandy did darnell on “thin line between love n hate”

  23. kandykane

    Thing about tyra is she still tryna look like the 20 something super model she once was but ain’t no mo…she’s a beautiful woman of course but u gotta work ur age gracefully iman does it well

  24. NeevaTHEDiva

    for goodness sake yall talking about tyra like she 50 the woman is barely 35! she still looks wonderful and was/is one of the most fierce models out there. the advice she gives these girls is right on in most cases because its alot of delusional wannabe super models out there

  25. CiCi

    Tyra can do better than this. Her fashion sense is slipping. Her attire as of late has been atrocious. Instead of critiquing those women on her show, she needs to take a good look in the mirror and make better choices in her own look.

  26. I'm Just Me- SHOUT OUTS TO MY BIG SIS DDDDIIIIIVVVVAAAA

    OMG…what is up with the top of Tyra’s head??? It looks like a mannequin! Not a good look Tyra.

    The rest of them look alright.

  27. Nik

    Loving C*****ie’s style.

  28. scarey

  29. B

    ive been waiting on a tyra post and the bish looks scary, i don’t know what is up with her but she really looks scary.

    did you see that pix with serena…scary..I think she is on some kind of meds..

    remember her music video, her pretending to be beyonce and acting all stalkerish..I think like soo many hollyweird chicks she has so serious insecurity and issues…

    I remember her asking ri ri to be her roommate she tried to say it jokingly but the bish was serious.

    Thank god ri ri ditched the lacefront..i think it causes madness…tyra being a case in point, lol!

    take off the wig tyra, its okay, be yourself, you, like beyonce are not blonde…its gon be okay boo if you pull away from the lacefront NOW!

  30. princess07

    Tyra looks good in this outfit. Gayle on the other hand always look like a rough stretch of highway. You think with the weekly allowance she gets from Oprah she would like hot. Hot Mess is what Gayle is aiming for. She and Oprah got those awful bags under their eyes. YUCK!!!!!

    @noell:Who the HECK is Veronica Webb? I always think of the show Veronica Mars. Is shea video girl?? Either way, she is pretty just do not know what she is on….or

    Here is the answer……

    Veronica Webb (born February 25, 1965) is an African-American model, actress, writer, journalist and television personality. Webb was the first African-American to have a major cosmetics contract . Webb appeared on covers of Vogue, Essence and Elle magazines and on the runway for Victoria’s Secret and Chanel.

    Webb was born in Detroit, Michigan. She grew up in a working cl***** community. Her father Doug was an electrician at the tank division of Chrysler; he died in 1993.. Her mom Marion was a nurse at Detroit General Hospital. One of Webb’s sisters became an oncologist[1] and another is a mathematician.

    As a youth Webb looked at magazines and admired the freedom of women who were involved in the fashion industry. Models controlled the way they appeared while other women did not. She enjoyed comic books and dreamed of becoming an animator. She identified with characters in comics who usually came from ordinary places. Webb understood that superheroes first fantasized intensely prior to being placed into a fantastic situation. At which point they realize they have superpower [1].

    Webb graduated in 1983 from Detroit’s Waldorf School and moved to New York to study design. After a makeup artist saw her in a housewares boutique, Webb dropped out of school to become a model[2].

    [edit] Personal

    She learned French (language) from Karl Lagerfeld whom she moved in with for almost a year[1].

    Ms. Webb dedicates her time to several charitable organizations: LIFEBeat, Product Red and the RPM Nautical Foundation. She married George Robb in 2002. Their daughters are Leila Rose Robb (12 Oct 2002) and Molly Blue Robb(21 May 2004). They live in the Florida Keys.

    [edit] Career

    She moved to New York City to earn her college degree and was discovered on the streets by a New York makeup artist [2] In New York, Webb pursued a modeling career and eventually became a spokesmodel for Revlon. She was the first black supermodel to win an exclusive contract for a major cosmetics company [3] In 1991 Webb made her feature film debut in Spike Lee’s “Jungle Fever” Her film credits include “Animal Husbandry,” “The Big Tease” and Spike Lee’s “Malcolm X” and “Jungle Fever.” She has also been featured in a recurring role on the television show “Damon” and has appeared in “Just Shoot Me,” and “Clueless”. She admits that comedy comes much easier for her than drama[2].

    As a runway model she was in demand to be photographed wearing fashions from the collections of Azzedine Alaia, Isaac Mizrahi, Karl Lagerfeld, and Todd Oldham[4]. Alaia and Lagerfeld became her friends.

    Webb credits as a broadcaster include “Good Morning America”, Vogue magazine’s syndicated style show “Trend Watch”. Veronica has also been named on American Vogue’s best dressed list three times.

    She served as editor-at-large of Interview magazine, and was also monthly columnist for Paper Magazine, New York City’s style guide to downtown cool, for five years. Veronica wrote a weekly column on American culture in Panorama, Italy’s popular weekly news magazine, and has contributed as a writer for Details, Elle, The Sunday Times (UK) and The New York Times Syndicate. Webb was recently added as a contributing editor for Conde Nast’s Cookie magazine a lifestyle guide redefining modern motherhood. Esquire (magazine) commissioned her to write an essay on cigars after she did a photo shoot with the publication with Regis Philbin. The periodical’s editors were interested that she enjoyed brainy, self-made men, who enjoyed smoking cigars.[4]

    In 1998 Miramax Books published Veronica Webb Sight: Adventures In The Big City. The volume is a remembrance of her life with a collection of her essays. Harvey Weinstein approached her while she was in line at the White House about publishing her essays and memoir. He had been a fan of her writing for some time. In the book Webb is especially frank about both her naivety and arrogance as a youth [2].

    This Christmas Webb plays a high powered fashion editor opposite Rockman Dunbar in the independent feature film “Dirty Laundry”.

    @lala#1, Good post. Veronica Webb was one of the black ’supermodels’ from the 90’s and, yes, she killed the runway. She retired and had her family and is clearly still doing the damn thing. Go ‘Roni!
