Tyra Banks has revealed that she loves frozen desserts so much that she visits three ice cream stores in a single day.
The supermodel, who now lives in Australia, said one of her favourite things to do on a Saturday in Sydney is take the ferry across the harbour to Manly and go on an ice cream binge.
‘We go full-on ice cream mode. We don’t stop at one – we hit Messina, Anita, and Royal Copenhagen. Yep. Three. In a row’ she tells the Daily Telegraph of her favourie local frosty treat vendors.
‘Call it excessive – we call it Saturday’ the 51-year-old continued.
‘We’re an ice cream family. And when you love frozen cream, there’s no such thing as too much.’

Tyra is such a big fan of the sweet and cold stuff that she has opened her very own ice cream store.
Her SMiZE & DREAM parlour opened last week in the heart of Sydney’s Darling Harbour.
It comes after Tyra revealed how much weight she has gained since her heyday walking the runway in Victoria’s Secret Fashion Shows.
Tyra returned to the catwalk for the American underwear brand last year.
While appearing on The Drew Barrymore Show last year, the supermodel turned mogul discussed feeling true joy as she returned to her role as a Victoria’s Secret Angel for the evening.
After Drew said Banks looked like she felt ‘good about’ herself and was truly ‘living in the moment and really present’ during her runway walk, Banks said that description perfectly captured what it was like to dust off her wing after so many years.
Unlike in past years when the mother-of-one said she ‘would walk’ for herself, the Life-Size actress said, this time, she ‘felt like everybody was inside of’ her as she took the stage.
’50-year-old women, insecure women – I just felt like there was more, and I look at the playback and I’m like, boom, boom, boom. I was stomping because I felt like I was a vessel more so than it’s just all about me. It was different,’ Banks raved.
The America’s Next Top Model creator also reflected on how her body has changed over the years.
‘Also what was different is my boobies were like 10 times bigger because I was about 40-50 pounds (18-22 kg) heavier on this runway than when I retired,’ she told viewers.
‘So I was like, “Don’t fall out, don’t fall out.”‘
While serving as a VS Angel, Banks walked nine shows, before announcing her retirement from modelling in 2005.
Banks walked in her first fashion show for the lingerie brand in 1996.
Her final Victoria’s Secret runway appearance took place in 2005, before she embarked on a career in television.
In 2009, she opened up about no longer believing in diets.
‘I have been on diets in the past. They are a bunch of bologna,’ she said on The Tyra Show at the time.
‘It’s not about being skinny. It’s about being in the best shape you can be.’
