And she shouldn't have to either!

If you recall, Tyra Banks received some pretty harsh criticism in 2006 after a picture surfaced of her looking less than perfect in a one-piece bathing suit.

As a result, the supermodel-turned-television personality decided it was time to be more health conscious and lost 20 pounds with the help of her colleagues!

“We all made a pact to do a three-month health-and-fitness challenge, " she shares in a Life & Style interview hitting newsstands nationwide this Friday.

Her slimmer figure did not make her as happy as she thought it would and she quickly regretted losing what made her sexy in the first place — her curves!

“I didn’t like myself that small, so I gained back some weight," she shares.

Now the 37-year-old has accepted that she doesn't have to look like she did 15 years ago, exclaiming:

“I’m proud of my curves and my butt and my bust and my thicker thighs."

Instead of obsessing over everything she eats, she simply eats in moderation and stays active. It sounds like she's even used the bathing suit controversy as inspiration for her first novel, Modelland, due out in September. The message of the story, she says, "is really about expanding the definition of beauty."

This is so fascinating to watch!

Check out this previously unreleased footage (above) of Beyoncé preparing for her 2006 MTV Video Music Award performance of "Ring The Alarm!"

Being able to see first-hand how committed she is to putting on a fantastic performance only makes us love her more! She clearly puts everything she's got into this, even if it's just the small details!

And her hard work clearly pays off!

So inspiring!

In 2006, before Real Housewives and even before Jersey Shore, some people associated New Jersey with the Broadway play Jersey Boys, which won the Tony for Best Play that year.

While there's nothing wrong with being associated with alcoholism and spray tans, we're sure that the Garden State will be happy to gain all the wonderful associations that come with this play, such as phenomenal music and crime and adultery.

The play tells the story of how Frankie Valli and his crew became an American pop sensation before they even turned 30.

GK Films reportedly acquired the rights to the former Broadway play for a substantial seven figures!

Heres' what Graham King of GK Films had to say about the project:

"Jersey Boys is one of the most electrifying stage shows any of us has ever seen and it has all the ingredients to become a big commercial hit movie. So to now be collaborating with the whole team, Frankie, Bob, Marshall and Rick, to bring that magic to the big screen is just a wonderful dream come true."

We'll be excited to see how this film progresses. Should be inneresting to see who they cast as 'the boys.'

Are U looking forward to a Jersey Boys movie?

In his soon to be released book My Booky Wook 2: This Time It's Personal, Russell Brand opens up about his brief fling with Kate Moss.

Brand explains:

"I had a mad infatuation with her. I didn't feel all cool. It didn't feel like a conquest, it felt like I fell down a well. I was like a 12-year-old.

There was a night where I went and saw the band Dirty Pretty Things and she'd gone separately with Sadie Frost. When I saw she was there I felt totally overwhelmed because she is obviously incredibly beautiful and she is Kate Moss.

I'd only been famous for about half an hour. Then she sort of looked at me and smiled, then she sent me a text message a bit later, saying, 'Do you wanna meet up?'

I said 'Yeah, I'll come round'. She said there were paps outside so I couldn't come round. I said I'd dress up as a charlady or something. I did go round - but not as a charlady. I snuck in some other way. It was mad that was. I f***ed that up because I really, really liked her. It was never going to go anywhere but it was mad."

The future Mr. Katy Perry says he hasn't said anything until now was "out of respect" for the supermodel.

Kate's had worse things happen to her, she can handle it.
