For the last couple months I have gotten hooked on watching or at least listening to while I am working the Tyra Banks Show. The other day she did something that I think was really cool. She did an America’s Next Top Plus Size Model contest! All of the models were regular everyday women, but they were all over 200lbs!

You can see more by going here: http://tyrashow.warnerbros.com/show_recaps/show_recap_tue64.html The contestant that won received a high fashion photo shoot for a spread in Bombshell, (you can see more on this by going to www.curvychick.com, a new magazine for plus-sized women, a $1,000 shopping spree at Lane Bryant, and a one-year contract with Wilhelmina Models!

All of the women were uniquely beautiful! It was an inspiration I am sure to the many of us that are at that mark. Maggie the winner was really gorgeous, in my opinion. I think all of the ladies did a great job! I wish more people would promote the sexy, curvacious women!

Tyra did a show a couple weeks back called Do I Look Fat that you should also check out: http://tyrashow.warnerbros.com/show_recaps/show_recap_tue63.html

I love that although Tyra is a supermodel (well retired now) she still takes the time to show that you don’t have to be tiny, to be beautiful. She has done several shows on this issue and they are always so inspiring!

In case you haven’t seen her shows, they come on at 10am (central time) on Fox.
