Tyra Banks Reveals Getting A Nose Job At The Beginning Of Her Career: 'Natural Beauty Is Unfair'

Tyra Is On Top
The America's Next Top Model host revealed in her new book, Perfect Is Boring, that she got a nose job in her younger years. The model stated that she decided to get cosmetic surgery due to bones growing in her nose which made her uncomfortable.
"I could breathe fine, but I added cosmetic surgery. I admit it! Fake hair, and I did my nose. I feel I have a responsibility to tell the truth," Banks said.
Banks also stated that she doesn't agree with "natural beauty" as there are some women who don't look flawless without makeup and she's one of them.
"As a model, I needed makeup. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. It leveled my playing field. Gisele, you don't need it? I do! And we're both modeling for Victoria's Secret," the model said.
The model also went on to comment that she feels women should stop judging one another if someone wants to get plastic surgery or if they like their natural looks. Banks revealed that she has many tips and tricks that will make any woman look the way they want to.
Perfect Is Boring will hit the shelves in April 2018.
