This week on Two Queens, Two Crowns, we’re talking about two of the most iconic models in fashion history: Tyra Banks and Naomi Campbell.


From their parallel rise as trailblazing supermodels to that unforgettable showdown on The Tyra Banks Show, we’re unpacking how the industry pitted these women against each other, the way race and representation shaped their careers, and why Tyra’s Vaseline giveaways and Naomi’s disinfecting wipes will always live rent-free in our minds.
