Hi Tyra,
I love your talk show and top model!! I watch it all the time. I am unemployed because of digestive problems getting ready to apply for disability. I have a teenage son at home also. I am only 42 years old, and it came on so suddenly. Now I can't work or support my son. It is just a thought, but if you could do a show on this it would really help me to deal with this. I think you are a wonderful role model and a great person! Keep up all the good work especially for women!

Hi Tyra,
I am 33 years old and I am a huge fan of your show. My tivo is set to record your entire season. Although I watch your show daily, this is the first time that I have visited the website. It is amazing to me how much "HATER PUNCH" some of these people have had to drink. They love to criticize and always point out the minor details that don't really mean anything. Hell, do they think you can have one on one time with all of the people in the damn audience? WHATEVER--- GIRL I THINK U ARE AWESOME & KEEP UP YOUR WONDERFUL WORK!!!!!

Tyra it's cool that you are so open about your hair being a weave. But we are so curious as to Y U never wear your OWN HAIR!! Short is Sassy! Medium is Marvelous! What's the problem?? We understand all the styling & Hot tools would damage your hair if done on a daily basis, but We mean, NEVER, NEVER do we see U with YOUR OWN HAIR!! Tell us, WHAAAAAT Up?

Hi Tyra,
M mother is a big fan of yours. She thinks that you are a very inspiring person because you help people understand that they should exept themselves for them. My mother's is an single parent with 2 kids and a grandchild on the way. i feel like i have added more pressure on her because i got pregnant and she is already struggleing to take care of us . One thing that i know that would make her happy is if she could speak to you or to get a respond from you. we love your show and wish you all the luck.
luv,
Sheila

Hello Tyra
I think your show is wonderful. You have helped so many people. I don't believe that You could be nonresponsive to your fans. People who say those things are just jelous don't worry about them. Also I wanted to say that I am going to Be 20 on the 22nd of february and I have a daughter who will be 3 on the 26th of the same month. I had her when I was 17. She was not a mistake and I don't think that I ruined my life. I own my own house and I have a good stable job. Please try not to discurage young teenagers to get an abortion. There is always adoption, you don't have to kill a life just because you made a mistake.

Tyra, it seems as though everyone is concerned about your interaction with the audience. I never attended a taping (although I would LOVE to) but I hope you are taking everyone's comments (mean or nice ones)into consideration. I think it is very important especially since from what I see, your show seems to show everyone that not everything that glitters is gold and also to show people that everyone has imperfections! no one is perfect!You even go so far and show everyone your imperfections...because beleive it or not when people see imperfections of those they admire...it's sad but they feel better about themselves. I think you are doing a wonderful job helping people love themselves which should always come first. Like i said don't take the criticism in a bad way...use that criticism to let your audience know you do read their coomments (hopefully)and you do care about what your fans think. When you connect with a fan..even if it's a hi or a smile...you have been personal with them with just those little things and they feel special.

Dear Tyra,
My sister and I have been watching top model since the 3rd cycle.. we are literally addicted! I was soooo mad when Selisia won ANTM 9, I love Chantal i thought she had such an elegant look that is very unique, and Selisia looks very commercial. I also think that Selisia looks allot like Rihanna, which is not a bad thing.. but why would we need another Rihannah? I admit that Selisia's Runway walk was better that Chantals but Chantals Pictures and overall personality Beats Selisa's by far!! I really think Chantal should have won because she has allot of Potential and she makes a good role model. I would love to hear why the judges prefered Selisia over Chantal., because i just don't understand. To me CHANTAL is the REAL top Model!
P.s I was just watching your show today with Jhon Edward.. I loved the outfit that you were wearing it fit the ocasion perfectly.
I love you Tyra!
