Tyra is one of my bestest friends. Even if we haven't seen each other for months, when we get together, it's like no time has passed. She's a fun, generous friend, and every time we go on an adventure (that could even be to the drugstore), we enjoy taking pictures of ourselves. The older I get the more I treasure our friendship, and realize how rare it is to find a trusting, loving friend who will never judge you and just wants the best for you.

Fun Fact: Tyra and I have known each other since 9th grade (we were 13). We have always called each other "Wave." Sometimes it's "Wavelette" or "Waveness."

Check out some of the pics from our recent vacation!

hi Tyra first of all i think you are gorgeous, but i am not sure if you get to read the comments we put on here for real or not, but i really wanna find out how to become an eye model. I want to do this not just for the fact of becoming a model, but i wanna be able to help out my family and not have them have to worry about money. I do not know how much money a eye model makes i just figured it was better money than my job as a life guard could ever make. I do not have a very nice body because i am chubby but my eyes are a better feature of mine, if you could help me out and put in a good word for me since you know a bunch of people from modeling that would be a dream come true.

I jus had a c section and can't wear jeans,as much as I'd like to. I have to wear sweats all the time and my mom tells me I dress like a guy because I don't wear jeans. Since you're a fasion expert I was wonderin if you knew if anyone has come up with csec jeans? Maybe someone has made jeans with a soft waistband in front like sweats? I hadn't heard of any and was wonderin if you had any idea...

TYRA I HOPE YOU CAN GET AROUND TO READING THIS AND MAYBE TALKING ABOUT IT ON YOUR SHOW I WATCH IT ALL THE TIME AND ALWAYS WANNA JUMP THRU THE TV TO SAY SOMETHING BUT I CANT. I WAS WATCHING TH SHOW YOU HAD THE OTHER DAY ABOUT BI-RACIAL PEOPLE AND LET ME TELL YOU I AM NOT BI-RACIAL I AM BORN IN MIAMI AND HAVE CUBAN PARENTS IM HISPANIC BUT I THINK ITS HORRIBLE HOW EVEN PEOPLE WHO ARE MIXED BLACK AND WHITE CAN SAY THY WANNA HAVE NO PART OF BEING BLACK CAUSE THEY DONT WANNA BE ASOCIATE WITH GHETTO AND LOW CLASS THERE ARE GHETO AND LOW CLASS PEOPLE OF EVERY RACE IT ALL DEPENDS WHERE AND HOW YOU GROW UP NOT WHAT COLOR YOU ARE OR WHERE YOUR FROM... I THINK ITS VERY SAD AND PEOPLE SHOULD BE HAPPY ABOUT WHERE THEY COME FROM EVEN MEXICANS LIKE THE GUY WHO WAS THERE SO MAD CAUSE HE WAS MEXICAN AND BLACK.... MEXICANS ARE ACTUALLY REALLY HARD WORKERS AND GREAT PEOPLE.

Hi Tyra, My name is Kathryn and I'm 20 years old. I had a few moles removed and biopsied about 2 weeks ago. I got the results this past Tuesday. One came back normal and the other two came back pre-cancerous. One was mild and the other was moderate. The doctor said he needs to go back and reopen the one that was moderate to remove all of the remaining pre-cancerous cells. I used to lay in the tanning bed a lot, but obviously after this diagnoses I won't be doing anymore of that. I was wondering if you knew of any sunless tanning that wouldn't turn me orange. I know you're, of course, a very fashionable person who could answer this for me. I hear about products out there that won't turn me orange. I honestly don't want to spend money on thousands of different things just to found out they really do turn me orange. It's summer and I would love to have a beautiful tan. If it's not too much trouble will you please email me back and let me know something. Thank you very much for taking time out to read this. Much Love, Kathryn
