Tyra's Looking For Plus-Size Models

Tyra.jpg

Hey Chicas,

Tyra can't get enough of modeling competitions! Her latest project is called Fiercely Real Teen Model Search and she will be holding a modeling competition for plus-size teens. She's looking for girls age 13 to 19 who wear any size between 12 and 20. Tyra hasn't released details on entering yet, but we will keep you posted! "I've always felt it was my mission to expand narrow perceptions of beauty...Beauty is about what's inside and out," Tyra told Us Weekly.

What do you think of Tyra's latest project? Are you going to enter?

Peace, Love and Style,

Emily

Kudos to her...there need to be more plus size models. Skinny is not the only beautiful.
I'm a size 12. :-)

Wow...did someone actually comment with "eww! plus sizes?! ew!"
Shallow much?

i think it's great! yes, i am a 'skinny girl' but i see people be put under pressure to be skinnier, when their perfect how they are!

I Agree, parodyofasmile . "eww! plus sizes?! ew!" Is Way Shallow. I Watch The Show And All But I Dont See Myself As Pretty. I Do Want To Know More. I Love Me Some Gossip!
