Tyra Banks is a former model who now has her own talk show where she dresses up in fat suits and wears a variety of bad wigs. She recently “went undercover” in some actual nice clothes and wore a wig that did not look like it was ripped from the scalp of your friendly neighborhood transsexual who works at the MAC counter at Macy’s, and thus was magically transformed into Michelle Obama. The real Michelle Obama is still hotter, alas. (Photo via Harper’s Bazaar.) [Harper's Bazaar]

She pretends to be Oprah all day, and now this? WTF?
Tyra, you famewhore. You look good, but you don’t look like Michelle. Should have gone as Condi, all you’d need would be a pair of sturdy black pumps, a little flip to your weave, some chocolate to create the illusion of a gap-toothed smile, and a dour expression.
I’m also pretty sure that’s Norman Bate’s wig from Psycho.
Meh. BFD. Call me when Tyra wins the Buffalo Chip Pickle Licking contest. Now that’s good, wholesome family-style entertainment. *A-hem.*
These pictures are kind of like a black/married version of Single White Female.
Can someone please call the doctors for Ms. Banks and re-organize her array of medicines? She seems to have forgotten to take one, or some, of her pills again. Gawd almighty.
I made it maybe two paragraphs into the article before my brain exploded. It may be the massive dose of prescription pain killers i just took or Laura Brown’s pathetic excuse for prose but I don’t think this string of sentences makes any sense. Vote Ron Paul/Space Rockets ‘08.
Is that Barack Obama on her arm, or one of Gerald LeVert’s back up singers?
The real Michelle is hotter? Sorry but I call bullsh*t on that one. Tyra got that junk in the trunk. Michelle has a white girl ass. I will say this though. That fake Barack is gay/gay/gay.
Clearly, Harper’s is saying that if we elect Barack Obama and allow him to institute his energy plan, the f-in’ country we’ll be so cold all the time that we’ll have to wear sweaters to bed: http://www.harpersbazaar.com/cm/harpersbazaar/images/++07_052HB_27JUN08_047-de.jpg
soytrucknutz: Why can’t it be both? Stop limiting him.
I know I’m supposed to send this in to tips or whatever, but HOLY SHIT http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/64ad536a6d
angryhippopotamus: I was going to post that. Heh.
“but then that wrinkly, white-haired guy used me in that campaign ad…”
Tyra can be hotter, but I like Michelle more. Brainier. A lot less of the crazy. Looks much better in purple, too.
In this photo, Ty-ty looks more like Whitney Houston from the Bodyguard than MO.
pdiddycornchips:
wrong.
not even close.
michelle. period.
angryhippo: OMG that was so totally hot - the perfect comeback to the wrinkly old guy. We need to make sure to saturate the airwaves with this. Fox needs to run this four times a night. Who woulda thunk Paris Hilton could gain my newfound respect at the expense of John McCain’s honor? What a crazy world, what a dizzying election *wiping sweat from forehead*
Sara K. Smith: Cayful Maggie, ya claws ah showin. Meow!
…does this mean Larry King is going to dress up as John McCain?
What — now he’s got somebody being uppity for him?
…all that being said, call me sexist(everyone else does) but Tyra is totally hot and boneable in that photo!!!
pdiddycornchips: As opposed to the real Barack, who is *not* gay/gay/gay?..
MEH!!! My sister is a publisher for those fucks!!!
MEMEEEEEEHHH!!!!!
(meaning they are evil)
It’s nice to see wax sculptures of the Obamas however.
Canuckledragger: She’ll have to pry the Buffalo Chip Pickle Licking Championship trophy out of my cold, dead fingers. Nobody licks dill pickles like me! That is what you meant, right?
I have mixed feelings on TyTy. She’s just such a fucking narcissist that it’s hard for me to tolerate her. And Michelle’s hotness stems from her confidence and smarts, not just her rockin’ bod and overall excellent style. Tyra… well, that girl is INSECURE.
Wow, Harper’s has really gone downhill since Lapham left.
AngryBlakGuy: Yes, Tyra is a very attractive Negress. Don’t pay any attention to the hateful comments of the many racists on this site.
This whole getup is wayyy too red-carpety to be Michelle.
Michelle Obama’s hair would never look like that. That is classic “white-lady-hair-stuck-on-a-black-lady”, and it always, always looks heinous.
Michelle Obama would never wear a floor length dress. You just cannot kick any ass in that shit.
Ditto above for that drapy shawl thing.
Michelle Obama would never look that demure. The reason she scares white people is because she is brilliant, and defiant, and always a classy lady, and looks like she could seriously rough you up without even breaking a sweat.
True true re: the hair. They stole that wig from Whitney Houston to have some white-lady hair. I prefer the New Yorker Michele Obama with the natural hair.
That said, stop hating on Tyra. She’s too “narcissistic”? C’mon-she’s a super model with two TV shows! What model, or TV show host for that matter, is humble? Don’t try and pretend that Anderson Cooper is all “shucks me?”.
Plus Tyra has a tremendous rack.
wow. i wonder if other white people will notice that they look nothing like michelle and barack obama in this photo.
SayItWithWookies: win! A trip to Paris?!1
f.r.e.n.c.h
Won’t do anything to move the Pickle Licking electorate.
Michelle has that cute underbite, too. Reminds me of Bubba Gump.
AngryBlakGuy:
Tyra is always boneable. Even when she’s in crazy mode.
Is this the launch for the Michelle and Barack Barbies?
Tyra’s a fraud and her boyfriend is a dick.
I’m glad Hopey is getting the endorsement of these fake people.
Are they dressed for Reagan’s funeral? Elitists.
Is this the photo showing them dressed for Reagan’s funeral? Fucking elists. Everyone knows that you wear black-tie to Republican funerals.
Tyra looks nothing like Michelle Obama. For one thing, her gazongas are too big.
Someone needs to tell michelle obama that she has a terrible underbite. so far her public photographs have been photoshopped to cover it up…that will not last much longer.
