Tyra Talks Politics: Hillary Clinton

Democrat presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, sat down with the Queen of Fierce, Tyra Banks, to chat up some serious topics surrounding her campaign:



Not!

Yes, if anyone can get Hillary to talk about hip hop dancing it certainly would be Tyra. But dancing wasn't the only topic of discussion for the hour long segment. Tyra delved into the past and brought up Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton's infidelity. Hillary explains she had to “…dig down deep and think hard about what was right for me, what was right for my family,”

Hillary is no fool. Since tearing up in New Hampshire was a sure fire way of getting women voters, I'm sure she figured telling Tyra's huge young female audience just how she dealt with a cheating husband would pull women voters just the same.

But I have to admit, I am impressed with Tyra snagging interviews with the presidential hopefuls. She does have a knack for bringing out the non-political side to these normally stiff individuals. Remember her interview of Barack Obama last year?



Yeah, we know Obama likes Jay-Z. According to The New York Post, a Jay-Z track entitled, '99 Problems', was being played at a recent victory party in Iowa for Obama. The hook to the track raps, "I got 99 problems, but a bitch ain't one."

OUCH!

You can catch Hillary Clinton on The Tyra Banks Show this Friday at 5 PM on UPN.
