Beverly Peele disproves that theory, she was actually nicknamed "Baby Naomi" back then and was booking more high profile gigs than Tyra, more high fashion work and was hot on Naomi heels, all that and they were still good friends
Why has she always been great friends with Iman and Grace Jones?
Tyra is just OTT and off-putting and Queen didn't use and Tyra felt a way about it 

Cuz neither Iman or Grace Jones were the hot young new Black girl on the Black.

They weren't calling Tyra "Baby Naomi". They were giving her a lane of her OWN and that woman couldn't take.

So she lashed out like the bitch she is. I believe Tyra.

You'd be more offended than flattered if someone was called the "younger version" of you if you were a bitch like you say she was.
It was the 90s and there were a SLEW of black models who were all carving out there own lanes like Tyra and none of them had an issue with Naomi.
Naomi just doesn't use Tyra's grating, obsessive narcissistic, constant need to be validated and celebrated personality and that's it.

Thus why she's still randomly bringing Naomi negatively up in interviews 20 years on

Yeah - it's pretty common for people to do that following a traumatic experience in their youth.

Even more reason to believe it happened.

Not traumatic

[FlowerBomb]

Tyra has shared her experiences regarding Naomi plenty of times.

There was a whole damn special on it on the Tyra show.

I highly doubt that Naomi was embracing of her and she just suddenly decided to paint her out to be a bitch.

Especially considering Naomi's history with other people which included flying phones. Where's there is smoke, there is fire.

Naomi has never had an issue with other models, which is what we're talking about here especially bigger black models
More models have an issue with Tyra than they have with Naomi
Tyra is just extra and pissed she met her idol and her idol didn't reciprocate that love back.

Oh? Thought 'omi was here for her people

Which one is it. Is she Mother Love or a damn BITCH who picks and chooses who she is nice to

She's here for her people, just because she wasn't UP Tyra's ass the way she wanted her to be doesn't negate the fact she's here for championing black people in the industry.
When has Tyra ever gone out of her way to speak up for the younger black models?
Does she mentor any female young models? Is she risking her relationship with designers by calling them out to case black models? When was the last time Tyra went to African Fashion Week, promoting African designers and publications?

Naomi has been vocal about her people since the early 90's

In other words, this "love" she has for her people has conditions.

Very Mandela of her.

No it means she doesn't use Tyra like that
But she's been championing her SINCE then, Tyra is the only one with negative things to say 20 years later.

Ever heard of this show called ANTM?

Showing up to panel once a week isn't the same thing

American VOGUE says it was GODverly

Email them your corrections

Donayale was the first black cover girl (African American) for British Vogue before Beverley covered American Vogue, therefore, she's the first one

What Blackface are you talking about 

In Cycle 4, the models were told that their ethnicities would be "switched." In the photo above, you can see they painted a model who was part Black into a dark-skinned "traditionally African woman" (because apparently there's only one way to look Black?). "The challenge here really is taking on the persona of that other ethnicity while in the photograph and owning it," Jay Manuel said. I'm still not really sure what he meant by that.
