10. Tyra Banks
From being a Victoria Secret model to hosting reality and talk shows to having her own business ventures, there isn’t much that Tyra Banks can’t do. While Tyra is known for her stunning beauty, kind nature, and willingness to stand up against the unrealistic standards that society puts on women in terms of body image, Tyra hasn’t always been surrounded by praise. In a 2012 interview with the Daily Mail, Banks told the paper about how a growth spurt that caused her to gain three inches in height and drop 30 pounds made her the target of every joke in school. While Banks may have been bullied in her youth, she’s used that pain to drive her into being the successful and confident woman she is today.
