The ultimate tribute to why different is beautiful!

Would you be brave enough to rock your ugly? Tyra is exploring the meaning of "ugly" with some social experiments that will shock you! Meet a group of women who say they're ugly if they can't wear makeup or rock a weave. Will things really get ugly once Tyra takes away these beauty crutches?

I think that this was a wonderful way for people to realize how beautiful they really are! I was born with a dark mole on my lower cheek, and I've always been self concious about it, because people make fun of moles. When I was younger I considered having it removed, but realized I would not look the same, and it is unique! My friends say it is cute, and I am proud to have it, I am rocking my ugly(:

Hey Tyra! I rock my ugly: im not too skinny but my ribs and hip bones sick out, and im farely rectangular with tiny boobies but i realized my weird frame is really easy to dress most clothes. Plus i have under eye problems like you, which ive always hated but my boyfriend thinks its cute so why should it matter. I loved this episode, it helped me embrace things ive wished i could change for so long.

Hi Tyra, it’s my first time posting a comment on your website [yay]. I want to thank you for the “Rock Your Ugly” show. When I saw the girl that always wears make up I started crying because I saw myself. I wear make up to the beach/pool, to go tanning, & even to walk around the house because I feel so hideous without it. I have really bad acne scars & I’m soooo ashamed of them, in ashamed of myself. Even my friends say I look like another person when I put make up on; I never noticed how much a relied on make up to make me beautiful until i saw your show. i would have never been able to do what those girls did- to expose their flaws in front of an audience. I’m still self conscious of my scars but at least now I acknowledge I do have same what of an ‘addiction’ to make up and I have to learn to love myself for who I am.

I know that been ugly is nothing to be ashamed of and we should love us for what we are, but what happens when we find ourselves hating our own persona because is not as beautiful as others. What happens when the ugliness you seen in your self stop you from living a normal life? What do we do? How do we overcome our ugliness? How do I take my life back again? I will love to have Sex, love, friends, family, work, and my own persona back again.

Tyra, i loved this episode. my eyes are kind of close together, my ears are small, my nose is in such a shape that it looks like a pig, and im not fat, but i do have muffin tops. i rock my ugly (: id like to say also, you aint got much ugly to rock . i loved those pictures when your hair was a mess, you wore no make-up, and you were in your sweats. beautiful, inside and out :)

i think that beauty comes in all different shapes and sizes. even the beautiful runway models can be ugly... How?..... personality.

I have a flat nose. My face is quite round, but almost oval. Friends of mine have beautiful pointed noses and oval shaped faces... But I think i'm beautiful, I rock my ugly because i'm different. :D Thanks, Tyra.
