Hey Girl!!
This is not your usual tailored by Tyra makeover request. I need your help tailoring/makeover on my wedding album. I recently got married in March. I hired this wonderful photographer. The reason I pick him was because he did these wonderful wedding albums that sort of resemble a school year book. They are not the usual wedding album that just have one picture on every page. This album was like a picture book, it was beautiful. Any who, after the wedding he didnt keep in touch with me. He would not answer none of my calls or emails so now I am in the process of taking him to court. I really dont want to do that I just want a beautiful album!

So now that I am stuck with no album I wanted to ask you, since you know a billion wonderful photographers if you could help make me a wonderful wedding album with the pictures that I have.This would mean so much to me!! Thank you for your time, and thank you for being such a wonderful person!!

Hi Tyra, Im Jasmine and im 17 years old. I seriously need a makeover. My two front teeth make and arrow and stick out of my mouth, and I get picked on because of that. They call me everything possible. Im ashamed to laugh, small and talk to people even in front of close ones. I dont talk to many people at school because of what they would say about me so everyone thinks im stuck-up, but im really not, im very cool and funny, i love to laugh but im so embarrassed, so if i want to laugh i bend down or cover my mouth. My family is poor so we can't afford braces or anything like that. That is basically what a makeover i need, just to fix my teeth and i would love your help for that.....I LOVE YOU TYRA.... you have such a pretty smile, I wish i had that feeling....love Jasmine.

Dear Tyra,
My name is Nakita Hill, I am 17 years old and I reside in Chicago, IL. As much as I think i would benefit a lot from having a makeover, I would like to nominate my Mother for a new makeover. Not because she's my mother but because she IS a mother. there's a difference. Anyway, my mom has always put me and my older siblings before her own happiness and blames herself constantly for everything. I think my mom deserves this makeover because she is someone that I and thousnads of little girls can look up to. My mother absolutely refuses to indulge in life. Although she is now re-married my mom still puts everyone first even her own husband. She never spoils herself from time to time. As much as I try to convince her that she deserves new clothes, she doesn't listen. I have to literally beg her to buy herself a pair of shoes or even work clothes. TYRA PLEASE, my mom is a very deserving mother and candidate for a makeover. She has absoluely o clue that im doing this bit I figured that with eveything she's been through in her life that she deserves better things for herself. Can you help me convince her that she's worthy? My mother is truly beautiful inside and out. She lights up my world when she smiles ans when she's happy, I'm happy. She's tries to keep herself up but in the end every drop of her money goes toward school clothes for me ehich can be expensive because i'm taller than my other siblings. I just want her to know that I love her and this can be my way of showing her that she's always on my mind.
Thank you,
Nakita

Hello Tyra and Staff,
As much as I would love a makeover, at this time this is a offering to you. A New Childern's Line. Your makeover show of the preschool room really touched me and I know you could do some great things with this special group of charecters. I am trying very hard to bring to market, and would love to see what the Paper Scissors Rock Kids and You can do for a childs world."A picture is worth a thousand words!" So, Please, I invite you to view the P.S.R. Kids Catalog on my page at, myspace.com/psrkids. They are a delightful group you must see. I would love to have a small part in what you are doing to change someone's life, especially when it comes to our youth.
Thank you for your time in this matter, and I hope to here from you and work with you on this venture.

Sincerely,
Georgene Spencer

Hello tyra, I am a big fan of yours. I have your posters and pics all over my wall because you are a big inspiration to me. You are an idol that I really look up to. My name is Elbonny Vactor, I am from Erie, Pa and I would love a tyra makeover because I am tired of these same old hairstyles and I really dont know what to do with my hair. Its so badly broken off and damaged. I did something terrible to my hair. I died my hair twice, then put a perm in it. Tyra girl, you can only imagine what that did to my hair! I washed the perm out and my hair was everywhere, just falling out. My hair as a result is badly damaged and now i really dont know what to do with it! Tyra can you please help me? I try to somewhat dress up all the time but it doesnt look right when you try to dress real nice and your hair look like a mess!! There's nothing more that i want in this makeover then to experience an extreme hair makeover. To add insult to injury, when i tried to die my hair, the color didnt even stay in and also now my hair seems to never want to grow. I think i may have pernamently damaged it and I dont have the money to get someone to fix my big, big mistake!!!! Can you please help me tyra. I just want to feel good about my hair just for one day!!! Thanks tyra for reading this comment!!! I know that your very busy and i greatly appreciate it! Thanks tyra a.k.a Ty-Ty

hi Tyra,

My name is Michelle, I'm 24 years old and live in JHB, South Africa. I'm writing on behalf of my mother, Phordney, who I believe needs a Tyra make over in her soul. My mom has been really depressed lately because she recently lost her job. It's not easy being a 40 something year old woman in the new millenium with no degree behind your name. I have no problem taking care of my mom coz I love her so much, but I know that her pride has been bruised slightly because she feels that she should be the one taking care of the family. I know it would be quite impossible to get my mom onto your show all the way in the USA, but my mom and I watch ANTM and the Tyra show every week and I see how you motivate and encourage people to be the best they can with what they have. All my mom needs is some of that special Tyra encouragement and a few goodies to make her feel extra special!

Hi Tyra, my name is Brandi and I live in Casper, Wyoming. I'm 22 years old and I am a pretty self-confident woman. I feel good about who I am and what I look like except for one thing. My teeth. Since I was about 18 my teeth started deteriorating and I have no idea why. I have never had an addiction to meth or had bulimia or anything of that nature that would destroy my teeth. I do think that I am beautiful but I am so self conscious about my smile that I don't smile like I want to, while I still laugh and smile I have to do it in a way that won't show my teeth (which can be difficult). Over the last 4 years, my smile has gotten smaller and smaller, making my overall self esteem lower and lower. Please don't get me wrong, I'm a happy person, I have a good man, I love my job, friends and family but i truly feel that my teeth hold me back. It's become difficult to eat the foods I love simply because it's just too painful to chew or I'm afraid one of my teeth will break off. About 95% of the time I can only eat on one side of my mouth. I would like my teeth made-over to help me feel as confident as I feel on the inside, the way I felt 4 years ago. I want to be able to show a huge smile when I hear a good joke or when my fiancee tells me I'm beautiful. I put myself pretty low on my priority list..well after my boyfried Matt, family, friends, work, pets..pretty much everything. I have done nothing to deserve such a ruined and unsightly smile. I am such a happy-go-lucky, silly, caring, understanding, and nurturing person and even though it probably sounds selfish of me, I feel like I deserve, and have the right to have a beautiful smile. I have never asked for anything like this in my life and it would mean so much (the world, in fact) to me if this miracle could happen. I know you must get a million emails a day but this is truly from the heart and I really appreciate the fact that you took the time to read this probably way too long letter. Thank you so very much. I also wanted to say that you are one of the most positive role models in our country today. A smart, glam, curvy opinionated, funny, and touching woman. The so-what campaign is brilliant and just what young teens (and even a lot of older women) need to listen to...not mainstream media that insists a woman needs to be a size 4 to be beautiful. Keep it up Tyra!! Lots of love, Brandi. :D

Tyra Please Help!

My best friend needs you! She's 23yrs old and looks 13! She's 5'2 and 95lbs and never wears makeup. Her wardrobe consist of jeans, tee-shirts and gym shoes. And OMG we get carded everywhere we go. I know I look young, be she makes me look even younger. The police follow us all around the casino and we get carded in the mall...yes the mall. And lets not talk about the guys that try to talk to her...man their either pre-teens or the the grandfather types. Please help me help her(dont tell her I said this...lol).

Hey Tyra,

I would like a make-over for ME!

My family, husband, and kids love me for who I am. I want to love me, and feel comfortable in me. I believe that by having the knowledge of how to take care of this body that God gave me is a huge step in me teaching my children how to be comfortable in themselves. I want to be the best person on the outside as I try to be on the inside.

I watch your show "America's Next Top Model" and I envy the girls, not because they are all beautiful or b/c they are all skinny or have the opportunities to be on your show but b/c they have the opportunity to have someone show them how to make the best out of what they have to work with. I would love for you and your crew to teach me what looks best on me, (color of hair, length and style of hair, make-up, style of clothes that best fits me,...etc) I really want to learn these valuable techniques to show people how beautiful I am on the outside along with how beautiful I am on the inside. I enjoy photographing my children, family and nature but I struggle with all pics of me because I am not comfortable with the look that I currently (and all my life) have presented.

If you could teach me what is best for me I know this would make me a better ME, and in turn I can pass that knowledge on to my children.

Thank you Tyra for this opportunity and I look forward to meeting you!

Hugs,
Shelley

hello Tyra and co.,
my name is Angelique, and I am 23 years old. I have a 31 year old sister named Bonnie. For as long as I could remember, Bonnie always cared for her appearance. Over the course of the past ten years or so, I have seen her change in to a person that she has grown unhappy with. Though motherhood does change a person, I feel that she should still have time for herself. She has given so much of herself that there is nothing left for her at the end of the day. Lately, she has been trying to get her life in order; building a career and peicing bits of her confidence back together. I know that this makeover could realy give her a boost in the right direction, so if you could give her this makeover it would mean the world to Bonnie and me as well. After giving so much of herself to everyone else, please help me bring some satisfaction to her.
Thanks!

Hey Tyra,well first of all let me start by saying that you are an inspriation to me, i am a very slim girl so i now what its like to get picked on for being skinny.You are my role model and the minute i turn 19 trust im trying out for america's next top model!Well you may think i want a make over for me,[although my hair could use some help], but im really here to help my mother.She is such a strong woman,she has gone through alot in life even some things you wouldnt want to imagine.she suffers from diabetes and she's always having comlpications, she filled in to have ssi but the government told her she still needed to work so she's working even though its hard for her to do thingd because she has problems with her feet due to her poor circulation.when she was 16 she lost her mom and she had to move to new york where she lived with her aunt, who may i add wasnt to nice to her! while over there she struggle through soo much,she lived just about everywhere because she was constantly being kicked out.if it wasnt for a friend that helped my mother out i would have been born in the streets!her and my father did everything to make my life the best and till this day i can say they have done a good job.what my mother would like more than anything is to have a beautiful smile.we dont have the money to fix her teeth right now because she doesnt have dental insurance.im afraid for her to eat sometimes because im afraid she's gonna choke on her food and i would lose her. she suffers from depression because of it,she doesnt like to look in the mirror even though i tell her how beautiful she is,she doesnt believe it and having her illness sure doesnt help either!sooooo please tyra do my mother this favor this is all she wants and i know that this new smile will give her conidence and strength to get through all her obstacles,and let me introduce myself my name is crystal and im 16 years old and this makeover would also make me feel better as well knowing that my mom has one problem off her shoulders and if there's anyone who deserves this it's my goergous mother!! thank you and i hope you choose her for a Tyra makeover!!!!!!!!!! love you

my mom is 40. she and my dad got divorced when i was 9 and i am not 15. my dad was so mean to my mom about everything her weitght her hair everything was her fault and he still continues to blame her for everything. he is a police man and he abused her mentally and physically a couple of times. I know she felt like she couldn't turn to anyone because he is a piller of the community. he even says things about her when we are over there like your mom is too stupid to help with homework. My mom needs to start dating again and get back the selfesteem that my dad robbed from her. he is remarried and treats his new wife like a queen and says my mom did n't deserve luxury things like his wife does. There are 3 of us and she does her best every day for us help her tyra please. she is such a beautiful lady and not because shes our mom but just because she is. can you at least call her and talk to her or send a card so that she can feel encouraged thanks

Hi Tyra!!

This is my first time ever writing to anyone who has a talk show so here goes...I really am not one to tell sob stories or feel sorry for myself, but lately I have been extremely down and out so I thought I might just share my feelings with you. I hope you at least get to read this. I am a 25 year old single mother with a beautiful 3 yr. old baby girl named Kayla Simone. I am currently residing in Suitland, MD but my parents and my daughter live in Sterling, VA. I recently lost my job with a well respected radio station in the DC metropolitan area, I was not given a reason for the termination nor was I given any respect in being let go. I was basically just asked to leave RIGHT THEN!! Clear my desk and go, this happened about 5 months ago, I was granted unemployment but everyone knows that unemployment is hardly as much as a pay check. Nevertheless I have been steadly looking for employment since I was let go, to no avail. I go on interviews and I email my resume out to about 30-40 jobs a week, but for some reason I am not having any luck. I have one opinion on why I believe this might be. I moved out of my parents house in the beginning of 2005 to try and make a life for myself and my daughter alone without the aide of my well to do parents. Since moving out I had to send my daughter back to my parents home because where we were staying was not suitable to the life she had become accustomed, and I felt like it was in her best interest to send her to live with my parents. Since I have been on my own I have been robbed, had money, clothes and all peronal possesions taken away by females I thought were my friends and men who I thought cared about me. I also had to fight a couple of times, which I have never had to do, being that I moved to a neighborhood in poverty. I have learned some very valuable lessons in the last two years but I cannot change the fact that while looking for employemnt I feel no one is taking me to be a professional. I have excellent skills and a clear strong speaking voice. My resume speaks for itself, but when employers see me they show seem to loose interest. I have not been able to take care of myself like before, I do not have money to go to the hair salon, or get pedicures which is fine, but I do not even have the right bras, underwear or any type of dress/casual clothes. Simple things women in the corporate setting take for granted (pantyhose, costume jewelry, manicures, and perfume) I simply can not afford to do. I take care of my daughter with some help from my parents, but her father is incarcerated and has been since I was 1 month pregnant.He will be coming home in 2008, but I have heard so many bad stories, I am not sure what to expect Tyra. I was somewhat shelterd growing up and now I am getting flustrated trying to get employers to take me seriously because of the way I look I have been letting one of the neighborhood girls braid(extensions) in my hair and now I am practically bald headed. I have been recently thinking of giving up on trying to provide for my daughter on my own, and may be moving back in with my parents. All I ever wanted was an apartment that my Mom and Dad would approve of, where my daughter and I could be happy, together, and safe. I am so depressed I have even thought of taking my own life, my daughter needs me so I quickly cancelled those thoughts plus I believe it is a sin to take your own life, but Tyra I am so confused I can't even think straight anymore. I am trying to quit smoking also so if you have any advice for me, Tyra please feel free to share. I love watching your show, I have you on my wall of people who inspire me, I know that if I could get just a few maybe one or two business causual outfits I could go on interviews and wow these employers. Maybe you know someone who can help me?? PLEASE TYRA Give me your advice.
Thanks so much, there is so much more to my pain, but not enough space to put it all down. I appreciate everything you do for women as a whole. We love you!!

Dear Tyra,
How are you? I dont really need a hair or makeup makeover, I kinda need my teeth madeover. Ive had pretty bad teeth as long as I can remember, and well it kind of makes me feel bad about the way I look. Especially because Im only 20 years old and I know there just gonna get worse. And well I would really love to smile and not think twice about it.

Hello Tyra, I am 57 years old and I love your show just as much as the young girls do. I admire you and how you have taken control of your life and career at such a young age. However, of course I know it is because you have a strong and great role model in your mother. I myself have a beautiful daughter that was born to me and my EX-husband when I was seventeen years old. She is gorgeous but has a horrible attitiude and thinks she is the all that and 10 bags of chips. LOL. I have asked her to contact your show and get some advice or apply for a job with your show so that hopefully you could rub off on her in a postive way. She is in marketing for entertainment. She never did it. The reason I am writing to you now is to see if I could possibly get the makeover. You see I am over weight now but I am told I have a beautiful face and I would like to get married again. I have not dated in 10 years and want to try and get married again one more time only. My self confidence has gone down because of my body shape now. I recently started dating a guy that I like very much but don't really feel as comfortable as I should. Not sure of how to dress anymore for my age. Don't want to look like a old lady. Can you help me?

Michelle in Fontana, CA
