Aside from making waves as a talk show host and creator of American’s Next Top Model, Tyra Banks made history as the first black model to appear on the covers of GQ, Sports Illustrated‘s swimsuit issue, and the Victoria’s Secret catalog in 1996 and 1997.
The California girl, who once said, “I’ve always seen modeling as a stepping stone,” used her experiences to catapult her into magazines and onto television screens around the world.
Fierce!
