    Okay, why does she ALWAYS choose colors that are wrong for her? And I really don't mean this in a racist-sounding way, but she always chooses colors, like in blushes and lipsticks and eyeshadows that are better for white people! She's a beautiful black woman and needs to choose some deeper colors for her lovely mocha skin. And obviously the blonde is ALLLLLLL WRONG!!

    i think her hair has looked bad for a long time. for a while she had red hair and she looked like a baboon. why people with dark skin want "white people" hair colors is beyond me. i'm white and i don't even want red or blonde hair. i'll keep my black hair, and i think tyra should do the same. remember tyra, black is beautiful.

    Re: stop – Genetic studies in the US show that at least 60% of black Americans have the same genetic markers as white people and are therefore, at least some mixture of African and European. On the other side of the coin, at least 20% of white Americans had the same genetic markers as people from Africa, showing that there is indeed a good amount of white people with some ancestors from Africa. So we're not very far separated at all, and shouldn't try to act like we are. We're all in this together as fellow Americans. Embrace it!

    why if a black person hair is blond she is trying to look white?
    whcih whie celebs are real blond….madonna, britney, fergie,,all have black hair. i am sure Tyra will not stay this blond..she is allow to change looks .
    stop the hate! If it is true that some blacks want to be blond is becuase of the media.. mind you that in this racist society only blonds are succesfull! is very sad. If shakira had say with a hair natural black curly hair nobody will know her. so goes for jessica alba, Jlo, beyonce…ect. Why does whie people get tan to look darker…? the fact is that dark is sexier and smater blonds are just for fun!

    310

    Okay……everyone continues to comment that Tyra is trying to be white. So is it true to say that white people are trying to be black when they pay for tanning booths, brown body lotion that looks like mud, tanning lotion, and spray air brush tans????? GROSS!!!! WHo wants to walk around slathered in a mud-like substance just to look darker?? What about the lip injections and booty implants? I'm soooo glad that I was born with all of that!!!

  11. BLACK says – reply to this


    311

    Also has anyone seen Robert Deniro's beautiful BLACK wife? Just because some black men date/marry white women, does not mean the whole race of black men desire blondes or that blondes are the most desired. Just as when white men date/marry black women….its' just who they love. I hate the racisim on this site because it's so pointless. Nothing is more cowardice them someone who makes racist comments behind the guise of the internet. Say that to your black coworkers or neighbors when you see them instead of smiling in their face! BE REAL! LEARN TO LOVE! When we dies, we all look the same when our skin starts to decay…that's when you realize how pointless racism is… we all are the same when the outer layer of skin is no longer there…

    318

    just because a woman dyes her heir doesnt mean she is trying to be white or is self-loathing. maybe she just felt like being a blonde. my hair has always grown in brown and noone ever accused me of hating myself when i dyed my hair. it is such a double standard and i think that people who believe that a black woman dyeing her hair means self-shame really need to check themselves.

    I can't believe *Tyra* won an Emmy. Her show caters to her narcissism. When it's not doing that, it's total fluff, at best. It appeals to a lot of people, and that doesn't bother me too much, but come on……..an Emmy? I think the Emmy, Oscar, and Grammy awards are all virtually meaningless, at this point. I respect the Oscars more than the other 2, but they've made some serious slip-ups, recently.

    Re: max

    I think you replied to the wrong person. The whole point of my post is to say that we are so mixed that claiming "black" or "white" is more beautiful than the other is absurd.

    "WHo wants to walk around slathered in a mud-like substance just to look darker??"

    Where are all these mud-covered women. I wanna see.

    "What about the lip injections and booty implants?"

    Tyra needs both. But wait, I thought she was "black," right?

    I'm so confused.

  25. hahah says – reply to this


    325

    Re: White – I'm sorry to burst your bubble… But not all and not even most white girls get tans or go have lip injections…. you watch to much tv and see a small portion of these white girls that do that stupid crap. I'm white and proud of it. I have full beautiful lips from my mom and it's all natural. The same with my nice round ass. I have natural blonde hair and I would rather be white skinned then go and tan it to just end up with skin cancer and looking older then I am. So get of your high horse and look around you, you ugly ass bitch…. hahahahaha

    329

    Re: amand

    YES you are so right. White women are bland, pasty and plain looking. They need to have a shytload of make up, surgery and tanning to make themselves even look remotley interesting. Black women do NOT want to look like your nasty ass pasty white women. The white race to me is the UGLIEST race b/c they are plain and uninteresting looking. Not only that who wants to look like a bunch of women who age so horribly as do White women? PLEASE white people with that "Black women wanna look white". You know that's a DAMN LIE and the majority of Black girls you see daily ARE NOT TRYING TO LOOK OR BE WHITE. There is nothing remotley attractive about the average white woman.

    And if whites were so happy with being WHITE then why do you have a damn tanning salon every 1/2 mile throughtout the USA???? Cause even you knwo that ugly white skin is repulsive!

    Tyra looks beautiful with pretty much any hair colour!! what the fuck is with people calling her a hot tranny mess. fuck up you have to find something wrong with everyone??

    I like the hair but it looks better brown- natural

    and this debate between white and black women.. you have to make the other feel like shit to try and feel good? Thats pathetic, just be happy with what you are, do what you want to your own body.
    im WHITE and im proud of who i am (aussie), i think a lot of black women are naturally gorgeous and a lot of white women are too. every race has ugly/pretty people..

    perez just likes putting people down do you 's have to sink that low as well. just be friggen happy. maybe tyra just wants a change in her hair it doesnt have to be about her 'wanting to be white'

    also beyonce often has blonde hair noone gives a F*#k about that.

    STOP SAYING THAT SHE IS TRYING TO BE WHITE. She rocked a brownish-blondeish weave for the awards, SO WHAT! Us black people try different things with our hair all the time BECAUSE WE CAN! We can rock a super short weave without cutting our hair, we can rock super long hair without taking the time for it to grow & for many black folks it'll never grow that long but we can try it out. We can rock curls, corn rows, afros, perms, ponytails, braids WHATEVER WE WANT. We can wear our hair any colour of the rainbow without having to dye our hair & damage it. Weaves, wigs, afors, long, short, black, brown, blonde, purple, whatever. So what if she tried out blonde taht's HER BUSINESS! I think tyra has alread proved that she loves being black & is proud of herself and her curves. So stop generalizing about black people. As a proud black woman I can say i'm proud of myself and the way I look. I can find beauty in myself and others. For all the white folks on this board who defend white tanning and are making the point that just because you tan doesn't mean you want to look black. Well just because a sista decides to sport a blonde weave does not mean she's trying to "pass" and look white. Remember Ms. Arie's words "I am not my hair, I am not this skin, I am not your expectaions no… I am a soul that lives within"

  55. what? says – reply to this


    355

    When white people dye their hair, they don't dye it and shape it to look like a black person. Tyra DELIBERATELY chose a WHITE HAIRSTYLE AND COLOR that is UNATTAINABLE for a black person to naturally have, ONLY obtainable for a white person. That is the difference.

But even if anyone (black, latino, asian, etc) did get a boob job doesn't mean that they want to be or look white. Whites ARE NOT the only race that have naturally big boobs. plastic surgery is more common amoung white people than black, especially boob jobs, so what's your point?

    Re: what? – get your facts straight. Tyra never got any work done. Her breast are hers and her nose is hers. Have you ever seen her without a bra? No perk, they're all natural. The only thing fake on her is her hair. She will tell you in a minute she's got a wig or weave on.

    Re: Omg – She's done it before. Wtf? She's worn braids and afros. She's worn every hairdo that you can name. Please stop the ignorance.

    i as white people weren't meant to tan, people with dark skin were not meant to have blonde hair…it just looks wack. so all u Beyonce's and Tyra's, Chunkira's should go back to your natural black/brunette dark hair. It looks much better anyways.
