Tyra Banks is Cheap

by Ingrid on June 14th, 2006

Tyra Banks is cheap and she’s not embarrassed nor afraid to admit it! In an effort to keep costs low on her show, she says:

“I am real cheap. I don’t like to spend. If you drink water in the dressing room and don’t finish it, your name will be on it if you come back on the show. That’s how cheap I am.”

Hm, I wonder if that applies to the Top Models as well…

    I think other celebrities should take leads out of her book,you don’t have to spent big box to look good.You can look good with the cheap stuff as well..

    She’s just keeping it real.And that’s why I love her..

    Hey! I don’t see anything wrong with Tyra being cheap. There isn’t anything wrong with being cheap. Sometimes You could go on a shopping spree and spend over 200 dollars and I spend 70 dollars and still get the most compliments than you. It’s not what others think, it’s how you feel about it.

    Tara in my opinion is real! She not fabricated into being a steriotypical successful person who relishes in the fame. She expresses her self well and is personal.

    If Tara sees this. I’d like to get her opionion on regarding a young lady ( very beautiful) who want to model but has been and is still recieving the conflicting information. ( I’m her photographer ). She pretty much is my porfolio.
    After trying a lot of other things She convinced ( ides from others ) that she need to do something risky like pose for Playboy to get out there. Even as a male photographer I’m encouraging her not to beacause I believe there so much more for her. I know that if I don’t do the photos that she will find someone else if she dosen’t get sound advice soon.
    You can view her my space page ~L@Dy*J~ (Jessica) and Yes those georgous photo are hers ( I took them ) and there’s no touchups.
    If you could give her advice it dosen’t matter How I would appreciate it.
    Thanks!

    Tayra,

    I have seen many cheap people in my life, but I never expect a celebrity to be cheap. I am very religious and I believe God gives fortune to people for a reason. If you have what it takes to help the unfortunte then do it. My advice to you would be help others as much as you can because this is one life to live. What you plant here in this world is what you will harvest after you pass this life. I would like to bring up King Solomon’s wise words.

    1- Learn to reach success without going through bad path.
    2- Learn to loose wihout crying over it.
    3- Learn to help without any expectation.

    You can be as cheap as you wnt for your wte bottles, but if you want to please our Lord Jesus in heaven then do his will. (HELP THE UNFORTUNATE ONES.)

    Shanal :)

    come on cheap what is cheap to her isnt what the average american considers cheap. if water is such a big deal buy it by gallons and use a water machine not 8oz plastic bottles . I have nothing against Tyra I think she has helped and changed a lot of peoples lives and she is a very strong and positive women a great role model but dont tell me she is cheap maybe we should focus on the positive things she does to help and stop focusing on money who gives a crap how much money she spends she helps people feel good and live happier lives because of that. she takes her time to help how she knows how thats what we should all be doing helping each other you dont have to have money to make someone feel good all you need is a little compation its in us all you just have to want to feel it

    i think that trya helps alot of people who aren’t as fortunate as her. i think she is great at what she does and i don’t think anyone should be talking about her badly. she isn’t “cheap”. she uses her money wisely. you think it is wrong to keep the water? and give it to them later? no, it’s not. do you know that the earth is low on water. she is preserving it. she is one of few who are actually trying to keep the earth well and clean. she actually cares unlike some people. you are being stereotypical. and a girl who left the comment : “i dont understand y she is being so cheap, they girl got money up da ass.. but Im frugal myself…” , are you serious? she is saving, maybe making investments. there is no reason you should get on her for that. its good. that’s what most people should do. she is responsible. she is a great role model. me, personally; i look up to her. she does more that what is expected. she helps others, by ways to make lives easier, and she is very giving. do you watch her shows? she gives stuff all the time. she isn’t cheap when it comes to her fans. she chooses to save her money, spend little on herself. that is a great quality to have. i love tyra. people should follow in her footsteps; she is a great leader. so for those who get on her for nothing, sit on it.
