TYRA BANKS

Tyra grew up in Los Angeles, and her acting career rose from acting as the heroine in TV series and movies adapted from Disney dramas. Tyra started her modeling career at the age of seventeen. Tyra herself once said that the modeling industry is a business. She also said that her big forehead is her biggest feature, and she can speak like a pair of big eyes.

She modeled for Covergirl two years later, and the rest of the decade saw her work with fashion houses like Chanel, Yves Saint Laurent, Anna Sui, and Christion Dior. By 2019, Banks’ name and face is recognized by everyone inside and outside the world of fashion as she appeared in both film and television.
