Tyra Banks Supports Plus-Sized Models


French designer Jean-Paul Gaultier recently opened one of his fashion shows to plus-sized models, and the decision was the inspiration behind today’s Tyra Banks Show. In today’s show, Tyra held a modeling competition featuring plus-sized models.

“You do not have to be super stick skinny in order to model,” Contactmusic quoted Banks, as saying.

All wannabe models competing for the first Thick + Sexy Top Plus-Size Model crown are required to be size 18 and above, and they all tipped the scales at over 200 pounds.

Anyone catch the episode? How was it?
