Tyra Banks finds Kiwi girls genuinely friendly
December 18th, 2009 - 5:39 pm ICT by ANI ( Leave a comment )London, Dec 18 (ANI): Former model Tyra Banks says she finds Kiwi girls genuinely friendly.
‘America’s Next Top Model’ host, who was on a trip to Auckland for the launch of a new beauty campaign, feels New Zealand girls stand out.
“I find that the girls are so like, beyond warm and polite. I don’t know, do you guys have haters? America’s all about haters. I don’t feel that here,” the NZ Herald quoted her as saying.
Banks is said to have broken down in tears in front of a star-studded crowd during the launch of the ‘Global Beauty Inside and Out summit’.
The 36-year-old beauty gave a speech about her stay in New Zealand and discussed the importance of embracing all kinds of beauty, encouraging young women to love themselves inside and out.
Clad in a bright purple wrap-around dress, Banks spoke of her passion for recognising all kinds of beauty and became visibly emotional.
“I apologise for the emotion but I am my mother’s daughter and my mama cries at everything,” she said. (ANI)
