Tyra Banks

A top supermodel throughout the '90s and '00s, Banks was always more than just a pretty face and perfect body. Her résumé boasts stints as an actress, recording artist, author, talk-show host and reality-TV queen. In the '90s she had guest roles on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Felicity while continuing to appear in magazines and on runways. But superstardom came in 2003 when Banks signed on to the reality competition America's Next Top Model. As producer, host and often teary judge, she charmed viewers by acting as mother hen to the young hopefuls. Her prime-time popularity inspired her to launch her own eponymous daytime talk show in 2005. Off screen, the beauty has used her charms on director John Singleton, singer Seal and basketball player Chris Webber.
