Make the Holidays Happy for Tyra Banks

Want to make supermodel Tyra Banks happy this holiday season? Then lavish her with gifts from her Holiday Wish List (sponsored by Yahoo!). What does this fashion-model-turned-talk-show host need? Here is Tyra’s list:

1. Apple iPod (Nano) Red
2. Apple MacBook 1.83 GHz
3. TUCANO Work-out 13″ MacBook
4. Canon PowerShot SD500 Digital ELPH
5. Motorola V3i DOLCE & GABBANA
6. Sling Media Slingbox Pro

And to stop the player hating that the Angry Asian Girl is going to laydown, here’s a pre-emptive response. Ms. Banks is entitled to receiving some gifts. She works hard, extremely hard. She has her charity, TZONE, her production company, Bankable Productions, and does two television shows, America’s Next Top Model and The Tyra Banks show. Normal people just don’t understand how hard she works. Look beyond the fact that she makes $50,000 a day while modeling and her Victoria’s Secret contract is worth $4 million. From August to December, Tyra worked “12 hours a day, seven days a week, taping two talk-show episodes three days a week (plus daily segments for ANTM) and preparing for her last fashion show for Victoria’s Secret. She awoke at 4 a.m., was in makeup by 5 a.m. and ran on three or four hours of sleep each night.” That’s some hard work I say! And look at her modest past, living with “her younger brother and her mother in a one-bedroom apartment in the gritty Inglewood section of Los Angeles.” With such suffering and dedication, Tyra deserves to a few gadget gifts to make her holidays happy.
