I am not surprised that Tyra (pictured above with American Idol season 2 runner-up, Clay Aiken) was recognized for her efforts.  She devotes so many topics of her show to raising awareness about sexuality in all forms (the recent episode about bisexuality was very interesting).  She also had a transsexual contestant on her show America’s Next Top Model.  Congratulations, Tyra!
