As a relative newcomer to the world of America's Next Top Model I am still trying to figure out how I feel about Tyra. I am fascinated by the way she is able to move from goofy to serious, albeit with some awkward phrasing --- "So the next name I am going to call". She must be a master of manipulating her onscreen persona because she makes me think that she is just like me---vulnerable (when she says I cried yesterday, I believe her) and aware of her limitations (we all know she isn't the smartest or most beautiful model, whatever that means, out there but she is ambitious anyway). The only time it feels too canned is when she talks about fears and insecurities in the abstract, but still, maybe without this foray into cheesiness we couldn't see the vulnerability.
How do you feel about tyra "the fivehead" banks?
