In high school I definitely had a clique of friends. And what I loved about it was that we were healthy and good girls.

I loved planning 'The Tyra Show' more than actually having to do it. I loved coming up with show ideas, honing each program and crafting it. I'm more excited being in a meeting than being on TV.

It was really hurtful to me. I get so much mail from young girls who say, 'I look up to you, you're not as skinny as everyone else, I think you're beautiful.' So when they say that my body is 'ugly' and 'disgusting,' what does that make those girls feel like?

I liked college guys but they could tell I was just a skinny girl.

Never dull your shine for somebody else.

I actually don't miss modeling and I think the reason why is because of America's Next Top Model.

Most of my career is spent in a meeting... dressed sharply, looking really great; negotiating over a table, strategizing or coming up with new marketing plans or new ideas. And that makes me really, really happy.
