Tyra Banks' Michelle Obama Makeover

Copyright 2008 / Bazaar Magazine
Tyra Banks channels Michelle Obama! The pearls, the Oval Office -- and posing with a Barack look-a-like!

For its latest issue, Harper's Bazaar casts Tyra as First Lady for a spread about today's most fashionable lady in politics.

The former supermodel tells the mag she hopes to book Michelle on her talk show. The two met once and Tyra says Michelle was "so warm and so gracious. She's got that direct-eye-contact, truly-connecting thing. She's not a 'ha, ha, ha' type." She smiles and continues, "And I love that she's tall."

  • Sorry, but Tyra Banks is no Michelle Obama. It is an unintelligent comparison and an irrational leap - the only thing that may perhaps make them look similar is their skin tone. Do you see Michelle Obama's intelligence, dedication, and discipline in...

  • Not a single family farm has ever been lost due to inheritance tax, and as for the rest of what you claim, well, that's just about as (in)accurate; anyone making less that 125,000 WILL SEE NO INCREASE IN HIS OR HER FEDERAL TAXES.

  • I see no actual resemblance except the general one of similar ethnic heritage. Some people like to think that "we all look alike." We don't.

  • No she does not look anything like Michelle. You guys need to stop that trash. Michelle is a pretty picture all her self and the kids. Was this done for the bushes no. So get off the trash and find other things to compare.

  • This child does not in anyway look like Sasha. She is very mugly. Clearly, her mother and the agency are pimping this ugly child that they claim to loo-like Sasha
