Tyson Beckford Quotes

1. It's definitely different for male models now - when I started the men were all built and beefy, now they're all skinny! But that's just how I'm built, and I've got my niche.  



2. I thank God every day. That's all I can do. That, and try to help all those other guys who are trying to do what I did.

3. (on Shanina Shaik) When I found her she was a regular girl. I helped place her with the right people, get her teeth cleaned, her body toned up…Everything changed and now everyone wants a piece of her. I hear people say: "You can do better than Tyson." I'm like: "Really? Really?! I created her!""

4. It is true - models do eat like that. A lot of them have a Diet Coke and cigarette diet. I don't know how they do it, I can't do it - I need to have some real food in my stomach. I don't even drink soda, I don't smoke, I avoid it all.

5. Not every woman is going to be a size zero. The average woman is not a size zero. A zero woman, it's rare - the majority of the world (is) normal size. We're not all built the same, and you don't need to go starve yourself to look a certain way. I've worked with plus size models, Lane Bryant is a brand I've done a lot with for many years, their women are great. If you're happy with the way you look and it's healthy for you, don't worry about anything else.

6. As a supermodel I go with the other supers round the world: Dubai one day, Paris the next. There's partying. I'll wake up in a hotel room and there are people all over the floor and I'm like: "Is this really happening?" One time in Miami I woke up in the bathtub. Working with female supers continues to be a rush. I play second fiddle to them, but that's fine. Linda's great, and Elle, Naomi - though I've seen her dark side. They all like to have fun.
