Tyra is real, not saying Oprah isnt. But Oprah is more for older people. Tyra is more for teens, and a lot of teens can relate to what she has to say. [ kelsir's advice column | Ask kelsir A Question ]

I'll admit that Oprah is a good person doing amazing deeds. I used to love to watch her show. More and more though it seems as if she's getting a little too famous-happy. For the past year or so (in my personal opinion) it seems as if she's doing these good deeds to boost her rep. Most people would probably think it doesn't matter why she does them, as long as she does them. I agree with that to an extent. Oprah used to (and still occasionally does) cover the real issues. Now she's just another talk show host who talks with celebritites, etc. I don't want that. Some people do, as a teenager I don't. I want real issues. The one thing that really bugs me about Oprah is that on her show people will be talking and she'll cut them off or she'll try and twist their words to make them seem like a bad person. I know that some of the people made bad choices and possibly are bad people, but she should let the people talk for goodness sake! That is what really irritates me about Oprah. Other than that, I like her.
Tyra on the other hand can relate to teenagers and she covers the real issues. She went 'undercover' as a homeless person. She's helped many girls with personal issues. She brings her momma on the show to help girls with personal issues. She's covered so much. She shows you that although she used to model and be a size whatever, she's happy the way she is now. She does embarassing stuff on the show and shows how average she is at heart. She just, for lack of a better term, seems more real to me. She doesn't come across as fake. Oprah used to seem that way, now she just seems more and more fake.
I watch the Tyra show Monday - Friday, 10am and 3pm (well, when I'm awake and/or not working).
Oprah I catch sometimes if I like what the episode is about.
They're both out in the world doing amazing things for others. It's just the way they come across to their viewers. I think Oprah, as she gets older, is reaching out to impress adults, etc. Tyra is going towards the younger generation. When you're young like I am, she's the one to watch.

Erinn_the_bamf answered Sunday July 15 2007, 10:01 pm: The one question I will never be able to answer. I love them both so much.
Tyra:
-She relates to young girls. She knows about our fears and the like.
-She feels more like us. She has her crazy moments letting us feel like she's normal.
Oprah:
-She has done so much good in the world. Opening a school in Africa? Can you say AMAZING?
-For the past 20 years she has taught women to stand up for themselves. She's been there for generations of women. [ Erinn_the_bamf's advice column | Ask Erinn_the_bamf A Question ]
