Jan 31 2006Tyra Banks has hairy armpits

If you're going to be a super gorgeous supermodel or an insane TV talk show host that likes to say "fierce" a lot, at least have the sense to properly shave your armpits. I understand when women occasionally forget, but there's no excuse when you're planning on making a public appearance. You don't see Tom Hanks walking down the red carpet wearing his pajamas, and you shouldn't see Tyra Banks at a party sprouting body hair. It's unnatural, like a unicorn with a huge wart on its ass.

Look at her in this picture. she is too high to remember how to shave.
2. illflux - January 31, 2006 4:57 PM
Nasty! I already thought she was a loudmouth moron after (having to) watch her model show and talk show, but now she's gross as hell, also! By the by, I don't really see hair in the pics, but her armpit looks like some kind of scarred trauma victim (which, if is really the case, I apologize for my insensitivity).
I really have to disagree with the "super gorgeous" part, I never found her very attractive at all. But to each his own, I suppose.

Hey, you don't fuck her armpit.
I'd do her anyway.
4. lunarobverse - January 31, 2006 5:05 PM
Uh, am I the only one who thinks that that close-up picture of Tyra Banks' armpit... looks like... some OTHER part of Tyra Banks?
And I can't tell if that's good or not.
5. Mary45 - January 31, 2006 5:06 PM
If you didn't see the rest of the body attached to that pic you might think it was something else ewwww
6. Zed - January 31, 2006 5:08 PM
Maybe she should just skip the whole sleeveless thing altogether and wear something to cover up those armpits rather than letting them hang out there for all the world to see and throw up over.
It's looking mighty ugly under there...
7. senin - January 31, 2006 5:13 PM
Note to Tyra: cover up your nasty, scarred armpits. If you're too high or too lazy to shave then consider parting with some of your cash for laser hair removal...

#4: luna, you're not the only one.;p
9. spamnews - January 31, 2006 5:20 PM
It has been at least ten minutes since I looked at Internet porn but I think that that armpit bears a very close resemblance to ... a vagina! I'm just saying.
I'd hit that.
10. cornelius_prot - January 31, 2006 5:20 PM
fuck the hair, her armpit looks like a retarded monkey's hemmorhoid.
11. bootface - January 31, 2006 5:22 PM
im scared :(
i'd still hit it
12. escapevelocity - January 31, 2006 5:24 PM
#4: actually, that was the first thought that came to mind. i had actually thought they were trying to imply that her armpit looked like a vulva by comparing it to an actual picture of one, but had realized that it was actually a close-up of her armpit.
13. cibby - January 31, 2006 5:24 PM
I know I'm going against the general current here, but...
So what? It's not like there's an unrazed forest there, just a little fuzz. She's still a beautiful woman, one of the few (from what I've read) that hasn't had cosmetic surgery. So, she's got a little hair. Big deal.
And yes, her armpit looks a little weird when you blow it up like that. My armpit looks like a deranged alien queen. The armpits of the world, unite...
14. HollyJ - January 31, 2006 5:28 PM
Is that her armpit skin or does she have a rotting medjool date glued up in that crevice? Her armpit is NASTY.
15. Monkey - January 31, 2006 5:28 PM
Okay, who Photoshopped in the labia?
16. mikeski - January 31, 2006 5:29 PM
"Hey, you don't fuck her armpit."
Maybe *you* don't, but...y'know...
Erm, nevermind.
17. Sebastian De La Ghetto - January 31, 2006 5:42 PM
cooch armpit. id knock it down.
18. escapevelocity - January 31, 2006 5:47 PM
#15: Definitely not photoshopped. Nobody's clever enough to think this up.=p
19. _goodeyesniper_ - January 31, 2006 6:02 PM
holy crap! how dare she have body hair like every single other female human! She. Is. A. CELEBRITY.
20. escapevelocity - January 31, 2006 6:08 PM
it's not so much as the hair, but the peculiarity of how her armpit looks. wonder what happened to make it look like that. i'm actually more curios than judgmental.
21. PinkRose - January 31, 2006 6:08 PM
It's good to know I'm not the only one who notice that Tyra says the word "fierce" a lot on her shows..LOL!!
22. PKClover - January 31, 2006 6:09 PM
If you were desperate, you could squint and picture this as a Tyra upskirt shot. You know ... no panties upskirt shot.
Oh shuddup! You know you were all thinking it! Or at least you are NOW.
23. KMac - January 31, 2006 6:19 PM
Damn you PKClover. Damn you.
24. marizzlefoshizzle - January 31, 2006 6:24 PM
come on! Doesn't anyone think: BOOB JOB SCAR!! You can get them through the armpit so it's not as obvious...
25. Ultraviolins - January 31, 2006 6:30 PM
Is she still a model now? Maybe standards start falling to the wayside when the need to attain physical perfection isn't there. I can't imagine that a contestant on ANTM wouldn't be eviscerated by the judges for even joking about walking around in public, arms flailing about in the air (more importantly, with armpits less than a foot away from someone's direct line of vision, should the guy in the pic turn his head), with unshaven pits. Ever.
26. gossipwhore - January 31, 2006 6:37 PM
god, her armpit totally looks like a shriveled testicle. thank god she has big boobs.
27. word_lounge - January 31, 2006 6:55 PM
i cant really se the hair... but i do see a shaved vagina.
DISCUSTING!!!
28. HughJorganthethird - January 31, 2006 7:08 PM
Relax she just got back from Germany. U know, when in Rome...
29. xAgonyxScenex - January 31, 2006 7:21 PM
I never found her that hot to begin with.
30. bite_my_skull - January 31, 2006 7:23 PM
Actually, cibby, I'm not so sure about the no plastic surgery thing anymore. That scar in her armpit looks like something from a boob job. Maybe it's not, but the first thing I thought when I saw that was "breast augmentation."
31. gailmariecat - January 31, 2006 7:28 PM
I think she should see doctor about that armpit.
32. amma - January 31, 2006 7:31 PM
...I think Tyra is gorgeous, and seems like a really nice person.
I think Tyra's armpit is wrong, wrong, wrong. Its not the fuzz that is so troubling, though I could do without it. Its the scar...It totally looks like another body part.
But, what is the scar from???
33. christenwentboom - January 31, 2006 7:32 PM
am i the only person that can't look past her fivehead?
34. Shaun - January 31, 2006 7:34 PM
That guy on her lap looks like he smiling at the camera asking "you gettin' this nasty sh*t?". LOL hahahaha
35. playahater101 - January 31, 2006 8:01 PM
Most women, when wearing a tank top, check to make sure they shaved their pits. Hell, you even check when you put on deoderant. She must have run outta the house super fast to not notice that much hair.
36. billabong021 - January 31, 2006 8:07 PM
Oh man, sucks to be that guy in the pic. I mean, does anyone else see that his existance in this picture's been eclipsed by Tyra's hairy arm pitt?
37. Tracy - January 31, 2006 8:45 PM
She needs to get that shit biopsied... Me thinks it's cancer.
38. ESQ - January 31, 2006 8:54 PM
It looks like to me she is recovering from what looks like a scar from the massive razor burn she rec'd the last time she shaved her pits. If you forget to shave or just too damn lazy to shave DO NOT wear a sleeveless shirt for others to notice that briar patch underneath those arms. Good grief!
39. unshavenfan - January 31, 2006 9:10 PM
It is very "Natural" and I like it. I think it looks sexy :-)
40. Suite4 - January 31, 2006 9:33 PM
Well hairy or not, the guy who's holding her looks very happy.
41. DiamondStudded - January 31, 2006 9:45 PM
Eww gross!
She's also admitted to having cellulite on her butt & arms. Good thing she's got a pretty face...and a talk show.
42. escapevelocity - January 31, 2006 9:57 PM
#39, unshavenfan: ... because it looks like the vulva?
43. keepitrealchick - January 31, 2006 9:59 PM
i don't get it...what is that there?
44. mrs.t - January 31, 2006 11:11 PM
IS THAT NIPSY RUSSELL WITH HER?
45. rachel - January 31, 2006 11:17 PM
Ok I feel like a total pervert but it looks like a totally shaven girl getting screwed from behind...doggy style, yeah baby! =)
46. HollyJ - January 31, 2006 11:37 PM
I'm with 24 and 30. You can totally see the slightly lightish scar of the implant insertion line. TOTALLY busted for breast augmentation.
Shame, since she's always claimed hers were "real."
47. AngelFire - January 31, 2006 11:38 PM
Looks like Paris Hilton's skanky cootch!
48. citygirlin212 - January 31, 2006 11:52 PM
Helloooooo, earthlings......are you kidding about hairy armpits being "unnatural". Reminder: Women actually naturally have hair on their bodies. And you know what??? They poop too! Surprise!!
49. Lilmissy - February 1, 2006 12:30 AM
What are you a pervert, Gee's you think anything is kool!
50. jennyjenjen - February 1, 2006 12:56 AM
Good call on the boob job scars 24! Hey 13, they've all had surgery!
51. Caroline - February 1, 2006 1:33 AM
#44: Of course that's not Nipsey Russell. Nipsey Russell is dead. And I'm sure he wouldn't come back to be in a picture with Tyra's stubly armpit.
52. GregD - February 1, 2006 2:04 AM
I now proclaim that "hairy armclit"....badump bump....thank you...I'll be here all night....
53. Irina Derevko - February 1, 2006 3:25 AM
that man is benny medina, the guy responsible for catapulting jlo and mariah carey (to name a few) to stardom...or boredom...he was jho's manager before...until she fired him or something. anyway, moving on...
54. AmberDextrose - February 1, 2006 6:19 AM
Am I the only person who doesn't think Vag when they see that?
I think it looks like a tiny monkey brain. I didn't think she had a brain. But whadaya know?!
Perhaps she was hiding it under her arm all this time, sorta tucked in a like a clutch bag with just room for a lipstick and a credit card.
55. Matt - February 1, 2006 6:50 AM
OMG it just looks like her vagina!
maybe it is her vagina and she transplantated it under her arms!!
Im sure this is it...
56. Average - February 1, 2006 7:45 AM
A "Boob Job" doesnt necessarily mean she had an augmentation, she could have just had them lifted up an inch or 200.
Wouldnt surprise me considering how saggy breasts get once your skin elasticity fades with age and Tyra is way past prime isnt she?
They're still real, theyve just migrated south for the winter.
57. Kim - February 1, 2006 8:38 AM
I thought an armpit was just that... a pit. i've never seen an inverted armpit before.
58. Jenny - February 1, 2006 9:07 AM
Umm... that's not normal. That's not even normal for a natural armpit. I don't think shaving would help (well.. maybe a little bit for those of us that are looking at it), but the bumpy thing should be checked out by a doctor. Not a plastic surgeon! It looks like a cancerous growth or something...
Not even looking at the armpit, she still kinda looks like a man.
59. GirlyGirl - February 1, 2006 9:20 AM
You guys, of course she had a boob job. It looks like her pits got all stretched out from surgery. Check out http://www.goodplasticsurgery.com/archives/005420.html
The scars were probably airbrushed out of the water photo, but come on. Real boobs don't do that.
If I were a celebrity, I would get laser hair removal so I would NEVER have to worry about that crap. Hell, I'm considering it now and I'm no celebrity. Shaving sucks.
You guys make me laugh!
60. Whatup - February 1, 2006 11:30 AM
I thought the inset was a beaver shot, wow now I am totally disappointed!
61. Larry - February 1, 2006 11:39 AM
That's actually not Tyra's hair. It's the hair of the guy standing with her -- it's colonized her body and is exploding out through her armpit.
This picture was taken moments before Tyra died as his hair "fiercely" pierced her brain. It just took a while for his hair to find it, that's all.
62. Darby - February 1, 2006 12:22 PM
I didn't see much hair but it does look like brains oozing from her pit. ewww
63. ohyeah - February 1, 2006 1:48 PM
I thought only porn stars had vaginas that looked like that? Doesn't that come from too much ramming? Gross!
64. Spindoc - February 1, 2006 2:59 PM
It looks like she's hiding a little brain under the skin of her armpit.
65. Popz9 - February 1, 2006 4:06 PM
your complaining about hair... i thought that was a huge giant cli-----...... well u get my jiff....
66. Tink - February 1, 2006 4:55 PM
WELL, they found the really ugly part of her,
(besides her personality)...
Everyone really attractive has something really gross about them.
67. cibby - February 1, 2006 5:23 PM
I don't know anything, really, about plastic surgery, I just read in Wikipedia that she said they were natural. She could be lying, but they look real to me.
68. hermanita - February 1, 2006 6:41 PM
That armpit dosn't look real hairy to me. Actually, that's how an armpit looks after being shaven and the skin is irritated. Plus it's a really bad positioning of the arm. But truth told, it really looks like something else. I was searching the picture for a few seconds there wondering if she maybe took off her pants in a later picture, before reading the title. :S
69. Jayne - February 1, 2006 6:49 PM
...that's gross.
I'm having flashbacks to my days in highschool during gym..when I was face to face to disgusting armpits in the locker rooms.
Some girls...and apparently some models don't know how to take care of themselves.
70. Stephani Hagood - February 1, 2006 6:56 PM
Hermanita is right. When an armpit is irritated from shaving, and then whatever body products you use afterward, and then deoderant, you can get a rather red, raw armpit. I once used a body scrub after shaving, and other than make me smell really good, it made me scream for 60 seconds. I spent the next hour in a robe because my skin was too irritated to get dressed.
Unless you're Kate Moss or some other rail thin girl, there's fat under the armpit. Next time you judgemental people are standing in the mirror, hold your arm out just like Tyra and tell me what you see.
On second thought... don't.
71. Debutantejaim - February 1, 2006 7:55 PM
I give it to Tyra for coming a long way but damn I haven't gagged like that since I saw my naked boyfriend bent over from behind.
72. Debutantejaim - February 1, 2006 7:55 PM

73. susie-q - February 1, 2006 11:31 PM
She is so mentally ill.
To all the "i'd hit it" 's ... just ewwwww.
Yeah looks like a major scar from perhaps a cyst or something. Maybe corrective plastic surgery for the cyst scar gone awry as well. But I speculate.
Okay - hit whoever you want. Still .... ewwwwww ick (((shudders)))
74. susie-q - February 1, 2006 11:40 PM
Isnt she the one who had an ultrasound on her talk show to prove her breasts were real? Am I thinking of some other model/talk show host?
Too lazy to google it.
75. susie-q - February 1, 2006 11:41 PM
... it all makes sense now. those are scars from where she had the implants removed for the ultrasound on daytime tv.
fresh scars eh??
76. AussieBaby - February 2, 2006 2:06 AM
Oh my that is scary and i was bout the same thing bout it looking rather like something between her legs. And Shaving her armpit comeon girls you think you can shave your armpit every day? has to grow back some time or another and shaving/ waxing dont tell me you do that even when you bearly see any hair lol. Look like some kinda growth or scar under her armpit too.
77. koshrpikle - February 2, 2006 9:09 AM
OMG, have we become soooo superficial we are talking about armpits???? BTW- have you seen Cameron Diaz's toes?!?
78. lavitiate - February 2, 2006 3:43 PM
The close up clearly shows she's hiding an old vagina under there. Which is totally gross. With her stature, she really should've probly seen a surgeon 'bout that already...
79. funnyboy - February 4, 2006 12:09 AM
As someone who is turned on by a woman's underarm I must say that Tyra Banks has one set of nasty underarms. I notied this years ago. Great face but the first time I noticed her arm pits I was turned off for ever. She has a supermodel's face and Star Jones's arm pits. Fat arm pits without a shave? Nothing worse. Put on some sleeves! Now!
80. okiedoke - February 8, 2006 10:31 PM
Which brand of deodorant does one use for old vagina in the armpit?
Not to mention you can ski off this chick's forehead.
81. maree - March 11, 2006 6:24 PM
I dont see the big problem... so she forgot to shave.. seeing as she has 2 shows, modeling career etc... she is allowed to be human .. and make a occasional mistake.. this one however will be in newpapers for all time.. muahahahahahah...
82. Miss Sasha - April 15, 2006 2:10 AM

83. Antoine - January 14, 2007 8:02 PM
The person who wrote that text clearly doesn't know what a woman looks like. The text states hair in a woman's armpits is unnatural? A bald armpit or bald legs, that's unnatural! Natural means that it's their by it's nature, and I haven't ever seen a woman who has no hair under her arms without first removing it by herself.
And even if it was unapropriate, you have to us a magnifing glass on the magnified piece of photographe to see the tiny hairs.
Stop judging people on what they look like. Stop discriminating woman.
Matter about real stuff, things that matter!
84. david storer - May 22, 2007 12:29 AM
good for her you are the one with the problem not her why should women conform to what you want? hair grows its there for a reason if is was fashionable to pull out your fingernails would you do it in fact do you shave your armpits?
85. juego de casino - June 30, 2007 11:55 AM
what da fcuk is wrong with you people?
it's her deal. whatever.
86. Kelley - November 6, 2007 5:50 AM
Uh. Check out homeboy's face in this picture. Notice a little stubble? OMG HE TOTALLY SHOULD HAVE SHAVED THAT, HOW DARE HE EXPOSE THAT NASTY SHIT TO THE WORLD, I WANT TO VOMIT, BEARDS ARE SO UNNATURAL
Grow the fuck up, everyone, and stop holding women to these ridiculous fucking beauty standards.

I REALY CAN'T BELIEVE ALL OF YOUz!!! SERIOUSLY., what is wrong with all of youz? Is just the armpit hair. Gosh!! its not like we dont have it. Whoever that took time to search the photo and wrote about someone's imperfection!SHOULD TAKE ALOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR BEFORE TO JUDGE OTHERZ, Common GUYZ!! we all have armpit hair!!!is not an imperfection? we all have it since we were born ..EXCEPT IT!!! But some of us chose to shave or wax it or use lazer ..whatever we galz do these days to get rid of it. At the end of the day.. is just the hair and the armpit OK? what the hell !! Hemmorhoid, virgina or valva YOU GUYZ ARE DISGUSTING.!!! is just the armpit and armpit hair ..JeZZZZ guys .get over it !!!..
Tyra is a beautiful lady and gorgeous supermodel, who has acchieved everythings in her life!!!!WE SHOULD ALL ENVEY HER BEAUTY AND STRENGTH rather than CRitisizing how her Armpit should be!!!

95. brittanypaige - February 27, 2008 4:50 PM
Gosh, you all! Why can't everyone leave her alone ?! First , it was her being "fat", second it was her having a "moustache" , and now it's armpit hair!
I really don't see why everyone makes everything such a big deal! Tyra has now had three things on her that are just mean and creul! She is not fat AT ALL! She has no moustache , and I can't even tell if that is armpit hair or just the dark complexion of her skin!! It's probably just the way her skin looks under there! Geez! You all need to leave her alone !! Tyra is a beautiful women. She is my role model. I absolutley love her ,, she is amazing. You all are just trying to find ways to bring her down , and if you haven't noticed ,, IT'S NOT WORKING!!!! So why don't all of you people who have something bad to say about Tyra , just go shave YOUR hairy armpits and moustaches. Because your not worth listening to!
You rock Tyra ,, I absolutley love you! I watch both of your shows and they are just so cool ! I plan to try out for America's Next Top Model soon , if they still have it. So keep on with your shows and good luck :) Your fans LOVE YOU!!
i love you !! :)
