Tyra's Not Following Oprah's Footsteps

I can't say that I'll publicly be endorsing a candidate, but it's something I'm thinking about.

In today's New York Post, Tyra Banks explains she doesn't anticipate 'publically' endorsing anybody for the upcoming elections unlike her idol, Oprah Winfrey.

I love Oprah using her power, because she has the influence to change what she feels is necessary.

She also goes on to say:

If you look at a lot of people in the field we're in, they're just constantly endorsing everything - from a new purse to a new hotel. This is just another thing.

But Tyra really is no fool. She knows it's too early in her talk show career to start taking sides. Plus, I am sure she is after Hillary Clinton too. Clever girl that Tyra!


In related news, Oprah will be throwing presidential candidate Barack Obama a fund-raising bash this weekend. Read more on this here.

While no word yet on when it will air, Obama will be interviewed by Tyra on Sept. 27th for The Tyra Banks Show.
