Tyra Banks is gearing up to be bigger than Martha Stewart or Oprah Winfrey. Sunday’s New York Times will feature a spread on how Tyra wants to be a huge female powerhouse, a force to be reckoned with (fierce!). According to the Times:

“Like her hero, Martha Stewart, Banks wants, most of all, for her name to immediately suggest a distinct point of view. Her brand, like her trademark ‘tough but still smiling’ smile, is consistent in all her shows: serious about the frivolous; empathetic and empowering, and always, always aimed at young women, across all races. It’s girly TV with a punch.”

As long as she doesn’t end up in jail like Martha!
