I wish I could grant a dream come true to my daughter Jennifer. Her measurements,height,& weight would qualify her for a run way model. She is 27 beautiful and has 3 beautiful children. Her first born is 4 and loves the camera. Is it too late for her to model? Are there any opportunities for Jennifer and her children to model together? when I see all the wonderful messages and so many dreams, who am I to ask, but if I never ask, I'll never know what might have, could have been possible. Jennifer is going through a separation and has to find a way to make a living. Where should she start to see if there could be an income for her in modeling? I would appreciate any advise you can give. God has blessed you and thanks for sharing your blessing and being a dreammaker, hope you get to read this, and post it with all your wishing for a dream come true fans.

A lot of my friends say I am really good at designing. It would be my wish to 1.) Meet you because you are my biggest role model and 2.) Have on of my designs made and put in a fashion show(even if the fashion show is small). Please Tyra my life revolves around fashion (even though I can't afford "in" clothes).

Hello Tyra, I am a big fan of yours i have always wanted to be on your show of ANTM I am 6'0, but there is one problem that would not allow me to be on it and that is downloading the application it seems that every time i try to down load the application it does not ant to do so.

Need to Know the time and date,what to bring to the Opening Casting in St Loius Mo. 3/8/2008 on Saturday.

hi tyra. i'm sophia, from nigeria. and i'm a new fan of urs. you have inspired me a lot in AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL. I also reside in nigeria.
one of my dreams is to have a nice chat with you soon.hope dat'l be possible.....

Dear Tyra,
I have watched ANTM since cycle one and have also followed Canada's Next Top Model. You have been an inspiration for so many aspiring models. In your model series and on your talk show you are a huge advocate for being a healthy, curvy, fierce, strong woman but, it seems like on the model shows even though you have "plus size" or "athletic" finalists they never seem to make it very far in the competitions. Is this because they are generally do not have the skills of the "typical" model body shaped winners or just to keep those girls who can relate to them interested in the show. I think these days it is especially important to show girls healthy role models and set a prescedent in the fashion industry towards heatlth models. Do you agree with measure taken in cities such as Madrid who have banned models who have a BMI of less than 18?
I myself am a 24 year old woman who considered modeling but after being turned away for not being thin enough I resolved to train and build my body in favor of fitness modeling so that I could have a body I am proud of versus making myself sick like so many fashion models feel required to do to keep working. I have learned to love my 5'10, 150lb body and the things it allows me to do.
Thank you for being a role model for girls & women of all races and ages. But, with this I feel you have an obligation to help change the industry where you can bacause as it is now, it seems like what you advocate and the actual results of the shows do not seem to coencide.
Sincerely,
Ashley from Calgary,AB Canada

Hi Tyra, i really love your shows both A.T.M and the tyra banks show. it is so inspiring to see what you have done in past few years for the young generation. most importantly i would love to be on TOP MODEL SHOW because i would want to prove myself that i can do more than just being called a pretty face. bottom line is am really dying inside and outside to model.my family think am crazy and that am wasting my brains on something thats not concrete. i will be 23 on may 12. am relly worried that am getting older without doing something that will make me proud of me.am zambian but living in S.A, for greener pastures i guess, in this type of industry i would like to be a part of. lastly ,to you tyra i say yo rock BEAUTY AND THE BRAINS. hoping to hear from you MISS BANKS. LOVE NASILELE/NASI

Hey Tyra! What does it take to be a Victoria's Secret Model? I am 5'8 but have a slim athletic build, but how skinny must girls be?

I love you and the show!
Please write back :) xo
