Tyra Banks Wins Daytime Emmy

Tyra Banks picked up a Daytime Emmy award for her talk show The Tyra Banks Show, which took home the award for Most Outstanding Talk Show/Informative, beating out Dr. Phil and PBS’s A Place of Our Own.

I think Tyra looked gorgeous at the Emmys. Her dress was beautiful.

“I want to thank Oprah Winfrey for her inspiration,” Tyra said during her acceptance speech. “She is the queen and always will be the queen.” She also thanked her mom and everyone who works on the show with her.

Below is a low-quality video of Tyra accepting her award. It’s the only one I could find:

You can read the complete list of winners here.

I’m not a fan of Tyra’s talk show, but you can’t deny that she’s put a lot of hard work into it. Even if that hard work results in things like panty parties and Vaseline insanity.

Video: Tyra Banks New York Times Interview

Tyra Banks is on the cover of this week’s New York Times magazine. Here is a brief video excerpt from the interview where Tyra explains the different types of smiles models should have. It’s pretty hilarious and I wonder why Tyra couldn’t explain stuff like this to the ANTM contestant instead of grunting and demonstrating that. That always annoyed me.

She also talks about the first time she as told she should be a model, choosing modeling over college, overcoming several obstacles in modeling, building her brand and more.

She’s far more articulate in this interview than she is on her shows. I wonder if this is because she’s given these answers a thousand times before or if she’s projecting a different type of personality on TV.

Tyra Banks on The View

On April 30, Tyra Banks made an appearance on the daytime show The View. She chats about she wants an Emmy nomination and how no one believed her talk show would make it. She also talks about “how hard” it is to have a long torso and she needed to learn how to work it.

Do you think Tyra deserves an Emmy for her work on the talk show? I always find her show to be over-the-top and cheesy. But what do I know?
