Tyra Banks: Barack Obama was best interview
Tyra Banks has said that the best interview she’s ever done was with President Barack Obama. Banks, who interviewed Obama when he was still a senator in Illinois, admitted that she was both excited and nervous to meet the politician, reports People.
“I was so nervous, sick to my stomach and my hands were shaking,” she said.
“I asked him to look into the crystal ball and said, ‘What do you see in your future, senator?’ And without hesitation he replied, ‘The White House’. That clip ran on CNN and every national morning show. I’ll never forget being a part of political history.”
The 36-year-old, whose talkshow aired for five years, said that the programme existed to “[expand] the definition of beauty”.
“I wanted everyone to understand that life is about accepting and loving yourself, flaws and all.”
It was recently announced that Banks is to pen her first novel.
