Tyra Banks doesn’t just make and mold mediocre models, she makes penis’s disappear. Tyra has decided to go all Oprah and gift the first transgender contestant on her show America’s Next Top Model with a full gender reassignment surgery. Watch her other joint, The Tyra Banks Show, this Tuesday November 17th to see Isis King (born Darrell Walls) recieve the biggest surprise of her life.
“This is not happening!” King, who was born Darrell Walls, says when Banks introduces her to Dr. Marci Bowers, a leading gender reassignment surgeon who has experienced the surgery herself. Bowers is paying for the surgery. “[I feel] like I’m about to wake up,” says King – who lived in a homeless shelter in Maryland before trying out for the show.
22 year old Isis still has all her man-parts because she couldn’t afford the $20-$35K price tag of gender reassignment.
“It’s hard. I try not to think about it because it is something I’m really passionate about,” she says. “I feel like I really was born in the wrong body, and it’s just the one thing that makes me feel uncomfortable.”
Tyra went a little cheapo on this one…no one in the audience recieved a free sex change. Oprah would have hooked everybody up.
