Tyra Banks On Her New Sports Illustrated Cover: 'This Is A New Me'
Her return to modeling comes with a new name, according to Banks, who said her new model name would be “Banx,” with the X symbolizing crossing out preconceived notions about what qualifies as beautiful.
“This is a new me, this is an older me, this is a thicker me, this is a wiser me, this is a thankful me,” she said. “It’s all shades, it’s all ages, it’s all sizes, it’s all sexual orientations, it is everything — and I’m putting that on my back with that X.”, will open in Los Angeles at the end of the year with the goal of “taking modeling to the masses.”
“Everybody can come to Modelland and be the fantasy versions of themselves, discover their unique beauty, have us validate their beauty while they are having fun,” Banks said. Attendees will be able to dress up and be models for a day, participate in fashion shows and photo shoots, and shop.
