Thanks Tyra for producing this movie "The Clique". I rented and watched it with my daughters and they loved it! I actually couldn't take my eyes off of it. I'm going to buy it for my girls because they keep watching it over and over :) I think that it taught my girls a good lesson, that they don't have to be like the popular girls or wear designer clothes; they can be themselves (NICE) and wear no name clothes and still be liked, as long as they are confident and love themselves! Thanks again Tyra, Jeanette
Tyra for me it is way different it would be the "Clique" "GUYS" saying mean stuff about my weight cause im more of a thick girl and i do stand up for my self but it never works and all the girls would be all cool nn shxt buuh the guys allways sayen sum so mean
Is this for real? Tyra Banks...Miss “Let All Get Together” promoting a movie about a girl who is trying to fit in with other girls who've separating themselves from the other girls in the school in a “cliques” because of their appearance? Even the attempt at “making things right” with the 2 groups on stage was light weight. Couldn't help but notice that none of the girls in either group were from distinct minorities (makes me wonder if they were would Tyra been so easy on them). The one girl that said she made the comment to the "goth/emo" girl wasn't perfect but saying what she said under her breath made her feel "special"? (btw, Goth and emo are not always one in the same). While my 14-year-old daughter and I was watching this, she was tearing up. This brought back painful memories for her. When we lived in Hawai’i (where she grew up) and then So. California things were very different. In both places she fit in everywhere and with everyone (popular with both kids and teachers alike). She was one of the popular kids that didn’t use her popularity as a weapon. More for meeting new people and other aspects of life. But we had to move and we came to SW. Oregon. Here she was just being herself but she ended up being singled out from day one at her last school. Singled out because of her looks (VERY long hair) and personality, she is a “school” person, wanting to be very active in her school (she joined the school paper, student store and choir). Even with her grades, being an “A” and honours student singled her out …but that didn't help either. One her teacher's called her a “grade grub” because she did the bonus questions
Is this for real? Tyra Banks...Miss “Let All Get Together” promoting a movie about girls being exclusive and breaking another girl down so that she can feel like she she fits in. And promoting it by separating the audience into “cliques” because of their differences in appearance and attitude? And even the attempt at “making things right”, it was so very light weight. While my 14-year-old daughter was watching this with me, she was tearing up. Her main objective was watching the show for the "Twilight" portion (but this portion changed her attitude of one of "excitement" to sullen). This brought back painful memories. When we lived in Hawai’i (where she grew up) and then So. California, she fit in everywhere (popular with both kids and teachers). She was one of the popular kids that didn’t use her popularity as a weapon. More like using it to meet more people and other aspects of life. But we had to move and came to SW. Oregon. She was just being herself but ended up being singled out because of her looks (VERY long hair and nails) and her personality. She is a “school” oriented person, wanting to be very active in her school activities(school newspaper,student store and choir). Even with her grades, she was an “A” student, an honor student…but that seemed to do more harm than help. One of her "new" teachers even calling her a “grade grub” because she did bonus questions at the end of her tests (her way of just feeling encase she didn't know the subject as well as she thought she did she wouldn't get a bad grade). Then there was her appearance…most girls wore jeans and T-shirts…she wore/wears dresses. Even I was treated differently because I wasn't one of those parents who didn't care
