Tyra Banks gets Fat

Tyra Banks has gained some weight. But to call her 'fat' would really be streching it. She is no longer supermodel skinny and is said to have gained 50 pounds recently. The photo here was reportedly photoshopped to make her look much slimmer for the America's Next Top Model 7 series. She has reportedly been told to lose weight if she wants to continue to host next seasons show.
Tyra Banks, 32, was born and raised in Los Angeles. As a child and early teen she was considered an ugly duckling. This was a very difficult time for her and she developed "very strong self-image problem."
Banks retired from an astoundingly successful modeling career last year. She had recently said she would not allow any future photographs of herself to be touched up or digitally enhanced. She wants to rely solely on make-up and clever hair styling techniques to enhance her beauty naturally. So this raises questions as to how this photoshop decision was made and whether she had some say in it.
