It's Not Like I Want To Hop

I Don't Like The Label 'plus-size' -- I Call It 'fiercely Real.' On 'top Model,' We Call It Fiercely Real. I Don't Want To Use The Term 'plus-size,' Because, To Me, What The Hell Is That? It Just Doesn't Have A Positive Connotation To It. I Tend To Not Use It.

I Didn't Have A Job Because Nobody Would Hire Me. My Friends Were Getting Hired, And I Couldn't Even Get A Job Interview. That Really Rocked My Self-esteem Because I Didn't Understand What I Did Wrong On Those Job Applications.

As My Mom Wiped The Tears From My Face, She Said, 'tyra, You Know What We’re Going To Do About This? We’re Going To Go Eat Pizza.' We Sat In A Tiny Pizzeria In Milan And Strategized About How To Turn My Curves Into A Curveball. In A Way, It Was My Decision Not To Starve Myself That Turned Me Into A Supermodel, And Later On, A Businesswoman.

Every Woman Has A Story.

I Think A Lot Of Business Students Chase Money And Then They Burn Out. They Have Early Retirements, Not Because They Want To Retire And Chill... But Because They Hate Their Job And They Are Miserable. I Don't Chase Money.
