Well, well, looks like little miss Promises needs to crack open a dictionary.

Please, girl. You think you’re the only one on this planet with issues? In the early years of my career, I got turned down for a lot of jobs. Did you see me tipping back a few to deal with my troubles? You think I got this AMAZING by mistake? You think I was born like this?! You think I ride unicorns in the spellbound summer nights barebacked, my skin glittering like a polished amber gem-stone?!! Maybe I was, and maybe I do!

But the point is, nobody can help you honey, if you don’t help yourself. You know? If you’ve got a magic rabbit in your hat, no one can see it if you never take him out! It takes hard work to be Tyra Banks but you know what Linds? I wake up every morning. I’ve got problems sure, but I march myself to my dressing room and I look myself in my antique Tiffany mirror and I say: “Good morning! I love you! I think you are GREAT! What are you going to do to AMAZE me today?!” You know? And if I need to, I cry a few tears. THAT’S RIGHT I CRY!

I think maybe instead of raising another glass to her mouth, someone needs to raise a LOOKING GLASS to her FACE and say - ‘Hi, friend, it’s me, Lindsay. Sorry I let you down. I. LOVE. YOU!’

Tyra Banks:

I just wanted to take this time to clarify some other rumors about me that are goin' 'round.

Girl, how do I put this? I guess I'll just go for it, I AM NOT A DRAG QUEEN!

Whoo, girl, that makes me feel so much better. It's like a weight has been lifted off my strong broad shoulders. Just because a girl is tall, big boned, likes to wear false eyelashes and wigs, and prance around a runway does not make her a drag queen. And just because you never see me with a man, that doesn't make me a man. If I was a drag queen, I would have all kinds of men (you readin' this Eddie Murphy?) because I would be a proud, strong, black-woman-like drag queen.

And Miss Jay, it's not that I have anything against your type (why would I keep hiring you all) it's just that I am not a man. I swear. There must be some other reason that you never see me and Ms. Chocolate Thunder Pussy in the same room.
