A couple weeks ago a teary-eyed Tyra Banks came on her show to tell off her critics and all the people who cracked jokes about the well-publicized picture of her in the bathing suit. (I just watched the show a couple days ago) The picture was probably taken by the paparazzi and then it spread and was plastered all over blogs and gossip websites. I read a few of the commentaries and was appalled at what people were saying. But then, that's the tabloids for ya'. In my opinion, Tyra should have stayed away from all that negativity in the first place.
It's no wonder why models become anorexic.
On the same show Tyra had various-sized models come on to speak about this skinny model issue. One very skinny model said that the fashion industry is not to blame for models' behavior.
Read a great thread on this over at Back in Skinny Jeans.
