Tyra’s Older Man

September 25th, 2007

Tyra done went and found herself a businessman like her favorite mentor, Oprah. He’s quite Stedman-ish, isn’t he? His name is John Utendahl, age 50, a NY-based investment banker that Tyra’s reportedly been dating for a few months now. Maybe that’s why she left L.A. for the Big Apple. Hmm…

I think personally that age is just a number in some cases.I’m 28 yrs old and i fell in love with a younger man and he is 5 yrs younger than me and we are raising our child together and we been together for 4yrs.So if that older man makes Tyra happy than i say go for it. ONLY U KNOW WHAT IS RIGHT FOR U!

All have to say is”(YOU GO GIRL)”,since these young bucks can’t seem to handle it, that’s good that you found an older more experienced man that can. I hope you’re happy and that everything works out with you (2)in the future, Kudos to ya’ll !

Love it!!!! Tyra is an extremely intelligent woman and if she is happy and he treats her good go for it.

Besides it not like she doing an Anna Nicole…may she rest in peace.

i think its great for tyra to talk to someone who is older and has that money.it dont bother me because im 19 and my boyfriend is 28 and it most definitely dont make a difference to me. so u rock on tyra!

Aesha said on September 28th, 2007

OOOh! I hope she ain’t goin with dat old man! I mean o.k. so he’s rich but she probably richer so it can’t be 4 his money. Do y’all understand that that man is almost old enough to be her daddy (if it weren’t 4 a few years). But she has been known 2 date older men like John Singleton and Tyler Perry. So I guess if that’s what she like?

Shawn said on September 28th, 2007

He seems to be a good guy. I hope this relationship will work out for her.

YOU GO GIRL-NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE SAY YOU GO AHEAD AND DO YOU AND ENJOY YOURSELF DOING IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mary said on October 3rd, 2007

Should have known, whenever she decided to date and marry, it would be a white man. It want last long. You date someone for a few months, he proposes and you say yes. Tyra, are you looking for a father figure? Get a Grip!

Robin said on October 3rd, 2007

Tays Mom said on October 3rd, 2007

I just read that Miss Banks is now engaged!!!! I say CONGRATS GIRL! He’s not only handsom, but he seems to have just as much to contribute to the relationship. I wish nothing but the best for the soon to be former Miss Banks!

feecar said on October 4th, 2007

Go tyra, do ur thang gurl. These young ones aint’ got their head on straight and it is disturbing but I wish her the best. I was startin’ to think she was a beard but she showed me she got herself a fine older man so do you. Now I wonder how she feels about her very first Top Model talking like a racist. Probably the same way Oprah felt about Racheal Ray saying racist comments after she put her on the map hmmmmm-get a clue and invest in the enpowerment of your own race-cuz like MJ say they dont really care about us.

mickey j said on October 4th, 2007

for get all that!! leave that man to an older women and tyra needs a younger man. shot! lets get real tyra you need a man that can hadle you.Somebody like 50 cent or jezzy. oh but i guess that would make them to ghetto and hood for her huh? well how about omar eps? perfect!

Jazmine said on October 4th, 2007

MamaD said on October 5th, 2007

Good for Tyra. I hope it works out for her. But if it doesn’t, NEXT…! Live, Love, and Laugh. Life’s too short.

MISS STRAWBERRY said on October 9th, 2007

I dont think so!!! If she happy, hey who cares?

OHDRAMA said on October 9th, 2007

WHATEVER COLOR HE IS WHO CARES ANYMORE. IF HE IS TREATING HER GOOD AND GIVING HER RESPECT THAN IT’S ALL GOOD HERE. AFTER ALL BLACK MEN, Y’ALL WENT THE OTHER WAY YOU KNEW IT WOULD BE A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE SISTERS CAUGHT ON. REMEMBER IT AINT ENOUGH OF Y’ALL TO GO AROUND AND HALF OF Y’ALL DON’T WANT A SISTAH NO MORE. WE ARE OPENING UP OURSELVES TO DATE OUTSIDE OF US OUR RACE AND IT HAS BEEN ALL GOOD. I AM A SISTAH WHO WOULDN’T GIVE UP ON MY BROTHAS BUT IT SEEMS LIKE SO MANY OF THEM GAVE UP ON US AND WHEN I ASK THE ONES WHO I AM CASUAL FRIENDS WITH THEY TELL ME IT’S BECAUSE WE DON’T UNDERSTAND THEM AND WE ARE TOO DEMANDING. HOW CAN WE NOT DEMAND AND UNDERSTAND WHEN WE ARE THE ONES WHO GAVE YOU LIFE AND RAISED YOU. YOU MEAN TO TELL A BLACK WOMAN THAT WE DON’T UNDERSTAND WHAT WE CREATED AND GAVE LIFE TO? I WISH MY SON WOULD COME TO ME WITH THAT LAME EXCUSE WHEN HE GETS OLDER. DATE WHO YOU WANT BUT DON’T GO MAKING EXCUSES.

Bro Jay said on October 9th, 2007

Ohdrama shut your stupid ass up……….

Bro Jay said on October 9th, 2007

All you wille lynch negro need to jump off a cliff
your so quick to come to the defence of you massa.
Right now we as afican american need to strongly
work on fixing the the history and future of
our people .Were not free until we all show
honor and love for self.
Jewish community is a
perfect example of what I’m saying about community
love first then you prosper as a whole.You are the
most hard head people in the world.So before we
find love in other culture,we must fix our own
prolem first.Intergration in some ways was an
mistake,because our kid is completly losing there
knowleage of self,you spend all your money with
other culture,look at the black hair bussiness,
shoes bussiness, malls,conerstores, gas-station
so my point is we need to start with our own
first before we began to spread our love out…

Bro Jay said on October 9th, 2007

OhDarma my back, what you said make sense,but not about dating who you want,not right now, we
still have work to do together as a whole,but I
apoligize for my earlier remark.We need to hang
in there with each other. Your right we come
from beutiful black mothers and I want the
reflextion of my women to reflex her. sorry my
black queen

Happy! Happy! Happy! you go girl! Be happy Be blessed, and just take it day by day. I have a older man I am 30 and he is 40. Only ten years but I am happy. They are more nurturing and caring and have grown from young men to real men. So you have him at his best Congrads!!!

who is trya fooling why she got go their she no her puddy cat must be funky”””’and his old ass cnt smell her fishy cat’ tyra know that man just giving her a head job and she got to be using some toys to satify her sexual need”trya find interest in him because he’s listen to her nagging and whinning and young mans not gonna hear all that””’tyra know she’s putting on a front if jada pinkett can be happy with will smith why can tyra find her self a good young black rich man and leave grandpapa to big moma

Tracey said on November 17th, 2007

John Utendahl has already dumped Tyra like every man in hollywood. She’s been kicking it with a young model type man. What an idiot. I wonder why she didn’t make an announcement about Utendahl dumping her. She had only been dating him since June. This is an example that having money means nothing without someone to love you.

angel said on December 13th, 2007

First of all John is a Black man. As a matter of fact, he has the largest minority-owned investment bank on Wall Street. He’s very smart and one of the finest men of any color around. Tyra is very lucky to have him!

Teachy1 said on February 3rd, 2008

It doesn’t matter whether John is a black man or not. I say brothas have been dating without concern for color for a long time now. It is time for sistas to do the same. Be open to relationships with men of all colors that are our equals in education and accomplishments. Why settle for a brotha who thinks he’s God’s Gift to all women and he’s doing you a favor to date you, when you could have a man of another color who will treat YOU like a treasured gift. It is time for sistas to ’shop around’. Glad for Tyra that she was able to find an accomplished (and attractive) older brotha, but him being a brotha is a bonus but not a prerequisite.
