Tyra sends a message to Richard's community, reminding them that just as they face prejudice for being black and Latino, it's wrong to attack Richard for being gay.


NEXT: Get This Party Started

Tyra I really love ur show you have a great personality and a really good person!:):)I was wondering if you could help me out with something??I am married and have two children which I love with all my heart they are my pride and joy.I wanted to know if you could help me to look for a work from home job.Probably your thinking why is she lazy and don't look for one her self LOL just kidding I know you wont think that. But it's just that I have been searching and they all turn up to be a fraud, they always want to ask for money if you want the info or something else.The economy is real bad and my husband is the only one working and I would love to help him out.The thing is that my kids are small still and they need me all the time that's why I want to have a job that I could work from home.I would really appreciate if u could help me with that! Maybe you could even do a show about how can u tell if a work from home is true or just a scam. I know that alot of mothers that stay at home and would like a job from home they will appreciate it! I would love to hear back from you !THANX Love u TYRA!!!
 
hey tyra I just wanted to tell you that I think your a good person. I wish I could do half the things you have. i'm 25 with 2 kids and hate myself. you keep me hopeful that miricals can happen. thank you for being an inspiration.
 
Hello Tyra. I am phillicia Cox. I live in Canada, but I always watch your programme because there is always something interesting about it. I was just wondering if there is any possibility of you coming to Canada to do a show, I would really appreciate it. In addition, you were asking for suggestions for what to do on your show. I suggest that one day you have a show that speaks about etiquette. For e.g. how a woman should sit, how a man should sit, how to eat and use the utensils in a fine dine restaurant, how to eat with chopsticks etc. I think it would be a good idea, because I find that not many people know these things even though they are such simple things to learn.
 
hi tyra how r u _ really i'm very happy to follow ur show here in my country in morocco. i liked ur way of presenting and helping people from inside and outside. thanks for verything. i have one request for if it's possible_ i need a book named write better_speak better_ can u send it tio me pls.
 
need tyra e mail
 
hi tyra, your a great person and i love how your always defending what you believe in,i think you should have a show about latinos/hispanic teens that are going through immigration problems because it is an important topic and alot of teens are in this situation.i am an illegal myself but i am no different than the average person and i hate how we are always being singled out becsue of it, and it isnt right, i may not have been born in the us but ive been here ever since i was a baby and just because of papers i cant do all the things that i wish i could do like drive have a job and go to school. i went to school and i graduated higschool i love school but because of my situation i am unable to go to college, and people need to know that this is very hard on teens especially when you have others judging you without knowing what you go through.put yourself in someone elses shoes and just imagine how you would feel if you were almost 20 and you couldnt drive, have a job or not being able to be independent n have a normal life.
 
Hey Tyra, My name is Jamie and i am 20. I just wanted to say thanks so much for the segment u did on Richard. It really touched. I mean i totaly understand where other girls my age or comin from when their friends dont except them and their famlies turn their backs on them because they dont understand them, or understand that they are doing the very same thing that they try to protect us from our whole lives, but thats is what they are doing... judging us, disowning us, and even hating us, and all because they are afraid of what other people might think or say... Anyway I just wanted to say thanks again Tyra for talking bout all of lifes struggles on your show... You Rock Tyra, XOXOXOX Jamie
 
Hey Tyra, I don't normally do things like this, but this particular show about the boy being gay & what he goes through brought tears. I'm 19 yrs old and from a small town in Oklahoma. It's a little different then what Richard's going through. I'm a gay guy as well and my family doesn't even know. I was brought up with alot of christian family who I love to death and I would like to believe I'm still a religous guy. I think this is a very brave young man and give his mother kudos for all the support! I would love to share with my family the love of my life, my boyfriend, but I feel it would be so hard and I would also be scared that I would be disappointing them. This episode gives me hope and that's better than having nothing at all. Thank you! This was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen on television. Tyra you are a very inspirational women with a great heart! Thanks, Racey
 
Hey Tyra!! Okay, so it is 5:02 in the morning and I have been up all night. I am so stressed out right now and have so many different things on my mind, to the point that I have to cry/already cried. The biggest thing on my mind is my sister and how I can't seem to talk to her anymore without her blowing up at me. My mom told me that my sister thinks I don't love her, when it's not true. I love her with all my heart. I would really love to meet you and be on your show. But there are so many different episodes that I could probably be on. I need help :-( I really do, I need tons of advice on all of the situations that are happening here at home. Anyways, I just wanted to tell you that I admirer you so much, you are my idol, and I'm not just saying that. I LOVE your show. I watch it everyday. I wish I can meet you. Okay, well I guess I should try and go to sleep now. I hope you read this and email me back. Thank you so much. Take care! Connie
 
hey tyra, my name is johanna, im 15 and im am a woman of color. i just want to tell you how much of a role model you really are. i can tell you really do believe in the things that you talk about. im not gay myself but i do know people in the same situation as ricky and it is something that especially people of color, that homophobia is stupid and a waste of time. i have gay friends and they are just as good or better then my straight ones!!
 
Hey tyra :) i just wanted to tell you that your my role model. your such an inspiration to everyone its amazing. and i know you'll get far in life and im glad. well thats it xoxo -mitzi
