She set the record straight on her show MTO. She DID NOT put her models in blackface. She apologized to anyone who didn't understand the "hoppa" photo shoot and who may have been offended.

I watched that show and it didn't offend me in anyway. I'm a black women myself and the photo shoot was done with class and dignity. She was actually teaching the girls the meaning of "hapa" what how the different cultures come together to make babies and the looks of the different types of cultures when they are combined. Sometimes the media puts there own spin on things to spark controversy but the shoot was very harmless.

Oh Please GTFOH! People get so uptight and offended when someones tries to highlight the beauty in all shapes, hair textures, and skin tones but sleep soundly after hearing how a child rapists got off scott free...Just sad...

who thought this was blackface? smh. I saw the episode and as african-american women, I was not all offended. It's ashame that the media only reports what it wants to report, to keep things stirred up. It't even become more magnified about how the media reports things to me, since President Obama has been elected president.

WTH?! Who got offended?! I saw this episode and I didn't even think anything about it being "racist" or anything like that .. I actually liked that photoshoot.

And it's not like it was some white person who just decided to put black faces on models just for nothing .. Tyra - a black woman, did it and it wasn't even really "black face" .. and it wasn't a trashy shoot or anything like that, psht.

I wouldn't have apologized ! For what? They were doing a shoot of all ethnic backgrounds and that in no way can be considered black face. Nothing was sam-bo-ish about it. People are just overly sensitive and want something to cry about anyway since they are tired of crying over their own miserable lives. Do It Again TYRA !!!

That episode was in no way black face! People will twist the truth of anything to get stories these days or to attempt to mess up someones image.

People are sooooooo ridiculous sometimes. WTF??? So when she did this a few seasons ago, where the hell was all of the controversy then?? There was nothing offensive done in the shoots. SMDH
