Tyra Banks: I Want To Adopt A Child TOO!!!

: Last week MediaTakeOut.com told you that Kimora Lee Simmons visited a baby broker to enquire into adopting a child. Not to be outdone by her model pal, now it appears that Tyra Banks is doing the same.

The publicity-hungry talk show hostess told news agency WENN, "I've wanted to adopt since I was eight, nine years old, before it was hip ... I really do think I will ... I don't have to have a child come from my womb to have a connection. Children that are already born are beautiful to me. I can definitely be a mother to them."

Sunkissed

It is a very positive move for most who choose to adopt!

Tyra is not married right? just an inquiring question!


TheTRUTH555

I think she should adopt lip gloss.

teedy123

TYRA'S MIND ISN'T ALL THAT STABLE. I THINK THAT SHE SHOULD JUST GET A PUPPY.


Morenita27

I was wondering if she even have kids!! But yeah, I guess being that she was never married, she never had a baby!!

That's good!! It takes a person with a big heart to do that!!


eLSoFocused

Tyra would have a helluva time pushing a baby outta her especially if the forehead is ANYWHERE near the size of her own...better adopt!


The_Shoparazzi

I'd let you adopt me, Ty, but you're too cheap! I need a mother that'll invest in Louboutins for her sweet, lovely daughter.


bebeishot

Its a good thing to adopt who cares if its for whatever reason but im sure the child will be in a better home than b4..A child is a child of God nomatter what country you get them from so that shouldnt be a problem...and maybe if they made it easier for ppl to adopt in this country but they dont, by the time you are done adopting your 2ys old, he/she will be 22...smh


soulsangr

aw HELL... give it up Tyra...


lesego1978

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT TYRA


She_So_Fly

lovelione you have the comment of the day! I wonder is this just all a fad for these celebs to make themselves look good in the public eye!


brotherj

HEY TYRA, YOU CAN ADOPT ME!! I can connect real well with. I will sit in your lap, keep you happy and fullfill all your motherly needs!!


LadyLuck007

TYRA CANT KEEP A MAN... SHE NEED TO DO SOMETHING, HER BIOLOGICAL CLOCK IS TICKING


darealestchick

oh well



JanaeMonique

I think this is great!! Who cares if their doing this for the public eye? As long as the child is being taken care of and loved. I hope she goes thru with it.


Leanie

First stars had the tiny dogs as a fashion statement, now adopting is all the rage. It's cool as long as they realize once you commit to a child you can't just turn them into the pound or shouldn't leave 'em with the nanny or in the woods and drive off. Quality of life is important to kids, too, and most kids want to spend their time with their parents!


plug

damn girl have ur own damn kids hell everybody wants to adopt damn so when they get old and ugly they can give them back huh


smtchcose

I appreciate to her due to her personality. She really know what people think.

I am A Sex Addict. I am american, 26, very nice. A friend on the net tells me:"You are too hot!" I met many great men on interraciall[SPAM] - diversely ethnic singles build lasting interracial relationships. . I also uploads many my hot photos there. My username is xhot. Feel free to chat with me.


sharies12

THAT'S GREAT! THERE ARE SO MANY KIDS THAT NEED A HOME!


Brown__Suga

i think tyra would be a good mama!!!


ReggieBushGurl87

WHATEVA TYRA


sweetangel34

They are a lot of children awaiting adoption in THIS country. As long as as she can provide a loving home to the child(ren) I think it's great. I just hope she's not doing it for the wrong reason(s) though!


10uhc

MAN,if it was ever a celebrity that I positively couldn't stand. It would be this fake! Everything she does is strictly for publicity. She probably does in a way, want kids, but scared she might blow up. You aint real BYYTCH


MSHRD24GET

I actually think she would make a good mommy, her and her mother are so close. We at least know that baby will have the bestest grandma on her side!!lol


aurevoir

She should have her own. If she is adopting at least I hope it is from the USA. Kids are in desperate need of loving homes. Good luck to her.


Shanny07

HOW IS SPENDING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AND THE REST OF YOUR LIFE BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR A CHILD THE HIP THING TO DO... SOME OF THE [EXPLETIVE] SHE SAYS WARRANTS HER WALKING INTO ONCOMING FREAKING TRAFFIC...

THESE FAMOUS PEOPLE ADOPT CHILDREN OUT OF THE KINDESS OF THERE HEART NOT AS A DAMN PUBLICITY STUNT!!

SHE IS JUST AS DAMN IGNORANT AS THEY COME.. I WISH AN AUDIENCE MEMEBER IN HER SHOW WOULD STAND UP AND TELL HER ABOUT HERSELF!!


the_jazzy1

OKAY DO WHAT YOU DO BUT PLEEEAAAASE DO SOMETHING FOR A CHILD HERE IN AMERICA. BRING THESE KIDS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES ARE COOL AND ALL BUT YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT COMPLICATIONS WILL FOLLOW AND IT'S JUST TOOO RISKY NOT KNOWING THE CHILDS FAMILY HEALTH HISTORY.BUT WHO AM I TO SAY SOMETHING I JUST ALL THESE KIDS COMING OVER HERE FROM OTHER COUNTRIES AND WE GOT PLENTY HERE IN US THAT ARE SUFFERING*****


MsPhoenix

You don't adopt because it's hip. You do it because you have the maturity and responsibility level to be a parent forever. You can't take a child back once you get bored or when adopting goes out of style


Bliqque

She's an idiot.



EGYPT8777

THE SAD PART IS THAT IT'S LIKE A TREND IN HOLLYWOOD, I HOPE SHE ADOPTS HERE IN THE US, THOUGH.


silky35

I suggest that before Tyra adopts a child that she takes some time and does some growing up herself. Don't adopt a child because it is the hip thing to do! Also Tyra, do us a favor and change that Raggedy Ann Doll hair do... you've done it and done it and done it! Try some waves...they are so much more appealing on you!


donye

okay now, what kind of tax deductions are these celebs getting for adopting these kids. it's a nice thing to do but... I just don't believe it, I could be wrong, but...


spiritrising3

Daily Prayer Feel free to make this prayer your own

Heavenly Father, thank you for your faithfulness, grace, spirit, favor, strength and endless supply of joy at work in my life. I choose to consider your ability over my circumstance. Thank you for the Wonderful Counselor that guides and protects me. I choose your guidance. Speak to my heart dear Lord, because I honor you and are willing to follow your lead. Give me a revelation of your ability at work in me. I choose to cast my cares on You and give You the praise, glory, and honor You deserve. Let joy flow through me today. Lord Jesus, I believe that you are the Son of God and you became a man to suffer and die on a cross to pay the penalty for my sins, and I believe that you rose from the dead and you are alive, and you are Lord of the universe. I confess that I have sinned against you and against people, and I pray that you will forgive me and wash me clean through the blood that you shed on the cross. I pray that You and God the Father, and the Holy Spirit, will come and live in me and I will live in You. I give my life to You to do Your will and not my will. Father give me the discernment that I will recognize your plan and will for me. Please give me the faith to believe all the promises that You have written to me in Your Word the Holy Bible. I receive your promises right now. Lord Jesus please baptize me in the Holy Spirit and fill me with your presence. Please give me the strength and the faith to accomplish the plans and the destiny that You have for me and give me the courage to be a witness of your goodness to those around me. Please fill me with Your love and compassion for people so I can be like You. Let 2008 be a year of joy, peace and happiness in my life, as I look forward to savoring the fruits of your spirit. Lord bless the person that sent me this prayer, as they too need your guidance. I pray all these things in Jesus name, Amen


PimpSkirt

personally, i think Tyra is smart, but sometimes she just be running off at the mouth.


kymelle

Can you imagine trya on pre-school picture day?? "ok, baby- now arch your back, lean forward, smile with the eyes- not that much, oh no- too much teeth. Give mama some lenght, gurl- do something with that pinky- this is not the photo booth at the mall- get it together, you don't know where these pictures may end up..."

Tyra would be the ultimate nightmare of a "stage/soccer mom"


naomi

why do all these hollywood women act like sperm is hard to come by? hell my uncle butch will give her a baby and he won't be coming around bothering her about seeing it or nothing. ***************************************************

LMAO!!


elove

[EXPLETIVE] that Tyra... You NEED to be worrying about Adopting this Good-Dick I have for you !!!


Dabitchizhere

MOST PEOPLE DONT FULLY UNDERSTAND THE REASON WHY MOST CELEBS CHOOSE TO ADOPT ABROAD BUT LET ME SCHOOL U AS TO SOME OF THE REASONS..

YES, THE PROCESS OF ADOPTION IN AMERICA CAN BE TEDIOUS AND LONG!!TRUE..BUT!!!!!!

HERE'S THE THING...MOST CHILDREN FROM FOREIGN COUNTRIES ARE PLACED FOR ADOPTION AT BIRTH DUE TO FINANCIAL REASONS OR PARENT(S) HAVE ABANDONED THEM OR DIED FROM THE AIDS VIRUS..

IN AMERICA MANY OF THE KIDS IN AGENCIES HAVE BEEN BORN DRUG ADDICTED(WHICH COULD CAUSE PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE WITH OVERALL PHYSICAL AND MENTAL STATES)

OR..THE CHILDREN WERE ABUSED (PHYSICALLY, SEXUALLY, MENTALLY) AND PARENTS DONT WANT TO TAKE ON KIDS EXCESS BAGGAGE AND PROBLEMS!!

I HAVE A FEW FRIENDS THAT HAVE ADOPTED KIDS AND THAT ARE FOSTER PARENTS TO KIDS..AND ITS ALOT MORE CHALLENGING THAN PEOPLE MAY THINK!!


Dabitchizhere

AND THE HEALTHY WHITE BABIES THAT ARE BORN ARE SNATCHED UP SO QUICKLY THAT AGENCIES ARE FULL OF MINORITY CHILDREN ("NORMAL" AND SPECIAL NEEDS) WHO WAIT YEARS FOR ADOPTION BUT TO NO AVAIL!!


fidocell

eLSoFocused ur jokez lol


ummyeahokwhatever

I hope you don't think you can return it if you can't take care of...like Ellen's puppy.


PryceLyss

These days, being gay and adopting children is like a new fashion trend. Its one thing to adopt because you either cant have children or cuz you love kids alot but just to keep your shape and avoid stetch marks is unacceptable. Hey i have a son I gave birth to and look at me.


IQuestion

Aiiyo...these celebrities are insane...its amazing that we live in a society where a living breathing human being...can be reduced to be on the same level as any other accessory(purse,clutch,jewelrey,etc...)...children are not just something to match your outfits with...its enough to make you cry...i garuntee alot of these adopted children will end up living a real life version of the movie "Mommy's Dearest"...America home of the Slaves and White girls who dont know how to behave...


Kesha615

o lord.....



SexySly531

I would love to see Tyra get married, and go thur the nine months of pregnancy. But my girl is way too busy for all dat. She still has her talk show and ANTM. You'll can hate on her all you want but she really is a great role model. I won't rather my 3 kids grow up and be like her, than I would most of these other celebrities Like the Spears', The Hiltons', and the list could go on. I wish her the best of luck. And Tyra if you read this if your doing it for the right reason then this fan will always have your back.


oshbaby

@sexysly531

I agree Tyra too busy


shiningstar

i'm proud of the celebs trying to adopt kids...its good that they're doing something good in the world besides taking photos...Good luck Tyra!!


SIMPLYME1

I don't see the problem in Tyra adopting a child. Tyra seems like a compassionate person and i really believe she will cut back on her work load, she's made enough money for 3 lifetimes Trya is a good role model, ask any child in a foster home would they mind being saved!


TiARA23

THiNK SHE WOULD BE A GREAT MOM...AWWWWWW HOW CUTE!!


CheriD

Ok I guess, but she will spoil the baby.


divastating1913

Oh Lord....Why are celebs all of a sudden acting like adopting children is the "new black"?

Lord have mercy upon the poor infant that falls into Tyra's clutches...


queenofdacity

SHE CAN ADOPT ME!!!!! :-)


Bunifa

I think she would be one of the best moms,get it Tyra you are a Wonderful role model


lil_msfxy

okay why are her lips that damn ashy in the picture....baby if the Chanel lipgloss aint work take it back to the basics...i know her ghetto ass keeps a jar of vaseline in her purse. Also i hope she adopts a child with a healthy head of hair so she dont have that child running around looking a natty disaster with them horrible wigs she be rocking...ya too pretty girl!!!!! She fired Benny she should have fired whoever was leaving them dead rats on her head


lil_msfxy

I hate my damn computer...what i was going on to say is that i think every child deserves to growup in a safe loving enviroment and we should all do what we can to make sure every child does. just one person's opinion though


UKNOWUAINTRIGHT

Tyra Banks is a good example of a beautiful black women that rocks great hair colors. My question is why can't all women be as nice with the miss clairol hair dye as Tyra. LOL Nothing worse than a women that hair color don't match her complexion.


lindsayte

Why not have a baby herself? I saw her at the celeb club millionairecupid.com for months, she can easily find someone for hook ups there.


fRICKIN_d0P3

why???? so she can cut them down make them cry then make that into a show???


ifekat

If you adopt a child you sill need a father for emotional and mental stability. What the [EXPLETIVE] do these bitches be thinking? Oh it's cool because you just adopted the child. You are still a single mother. Come off the dumbshit!



big-slim

u dont need to adopt a child we can go half on one just holla at ur boy......smoov


mumu

Tyra go sit your wanna be ass down...only time she ever kept it real behind a camera was on punked.


SoSerious4life

She should, she is getting too old.


SoSerious4life

.........@ divastating1913........
