As my mom wiped the tears from my face, she said, 'Tyra, you know what weโre going to do about this? Weโre going to go eat pizza.'

In a way, it was my decision not to starve myself that turned me into a supermodel, and later on, a businesswoman.

I think she's kinda what modeling is about in a way: Unique-ness, different-ness, edginess, quirkiness is actually special and I think her message is - I wouldn't say it's exactly like my message - but there are similarities in embracing your uniqueness. When she talks about being born this way, I really think she's absolutely fabulous.
