Obama appears on the Tyra Banks Show

I saw this episode the other day. I found it interesting to hear him talk about no tax breaks for the rich to a cheering audience while Tyra the tycoon sat beside him all smiley. No tax breaks for Tyra? Though it was the same old campaigning fluff, I thought it was interesting to see the black version of that on a black talk show.

Tyra Banks may be a beautiful woman, but her hair bothers me.

Her hair is different every day. I think she had a show at some point about that, though. What makes me happy about Tyra is that when I was a young girl she was a supermodel, and I was fat. Now I've lost weight, and she's put it on, and we weigh in exactly the same at exactly the same height (5'10" 161 pounds). It did a lot for my self esteem when she announced that, even if I don't really care about body image/weight anymore... I still found myself saying "wait, I weigh the same as TYRA BANKS!!!"
