Tyra Banks and Kimora Lee Simmons, Just Friends?
America’s Next Top Model creator Tyra Banks and Kimora Lee Simmons, retired model who previously appeared as a celebrity guest judge on America’s Next Top Model, was reportedly seen at the courtside of a New York Knicks vs. New Jersey Nets NBA basketball game with singer-actress Beyonce and rapper Jay-Z. So what’s so disturbing about the news? Banks was actually seen kissing Simmons on the lips, although it hasn’t been confirmed if it was just a friendly gesture or a romantic budge.
In February, it was reported that Tyra Banks, former supermodel and host of America’s Next Top Model, was very much optimistic to look for Mr. Right. She said after a string of heartaches, “I want someone to be there because I want him there, not because I need him there. I never wanted to depend on someone. When we were filming the last season of Top Model, I was going through some man drama. Heartbreak is serious pain! But once you get through it, you look back at the person you were crying over and realize they were never meant to be the one.”
Simmons, a 31-year old native of St. Louis, Missouri, got exposed to the world of modeling at the age of 14, representing brands like Chanel. This was followed by her acquisition of numerous projects, appearing in print and on the runway. As an actress, she appeared in films like All or Nothing and Beauty Shop. At present, she is the head designer of Baby Phat.
Could Simmons be Banks’ Ms. Right? Despite the pictures that showed the “apparent kissing scene,” majority of Banks’ fans were unconvinced of the couple being more than friends, even though other news sites reported that the two have been visibly spending time together. In fact, many loyal fans considered the issue as just tittle-tattle.
