00:00 I know you wanted to have a child.

00:01 Yes.

00:02 Went through IVF.

00:03 You were public about it.

00:04 Yeah, very public about it.

00:05 What happened?

00:06 So, I wanted a baby for so long, probably since I was 24 years old.

00:10 But I would always, every year I would say, "I'm going to have a baby in three years.

00:13 I'm going to have, and then the next year, I'm going to have a baby in three years."

00:16 Cut to being 40 years old.

00:18 "I'm going to have a baby right now."

00:21 And it wasn't easy.

00:22 And I just was like, "I'm not sure if this is going to happen."

00:25 And finally, I was on the set of America's Next Top Model, never forget.

00:30 And we had a fashion show, and the whole audience, just like you guys, are waiting and waiting

00:37 and waiting and not understanding why the show wasn't starting.

00:40 I was in the back, waiting for the time to do my final shot before surgery the next day.

00:47 You know, you have to do this final shot thing, and blah, blah, blah.

00:50 And that was my son.

00:52 That was your boy.

00:53 That was my boy.

00:54 So, little York is 27 months old?

00:55 Little York is, yes.

00:56 27 months old.

00:57 I feel like very good.

00:58 I was doing the math.

00:59 So, how's that change your life, having a baby?

01:03 As beautiful as they are, they do influence what you do.

01:07 Yes.

01:08 He is.

01:09 I mean, I, yeah, sometimes I'm like, "Okay, am I going to brush my teeth, shower?

01:12 Okay, I'm going to shower, but I don't have time to put on lotion."

01:15 Because he's like, "Mommy, now.

01:16 Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy."

01:18 You know, and my mom and I are together so much that he calls us Mama Nana or Nana Mama.

01:24 Oh.

01:25 Yeah.

01:26 You merged into one.

01:27 We merged.

01:28 "Mama Nana, I'm hungry.

01:29 Nana Mama, I want to go to store.

01:30 Mama Nana, I want ice cream.

01:32 Mama Nana, I want froyo."

01:33 And he gets everything he asks for, I'm sure, from one of the-

01:36 From his grandmother, he does, not from me.

01:37 So, his grandmother let his mother become a model.

01:41 Will his mother allow him to be a model?

01:43 Oh my God, you're a rapper.

01:46 Right?

01:47 His grandmama let his mama be a model.

02:59 I'd never experienced anything, but at the same time, I remember being a young model

03:03 in Paris going to what we call a go-see, which is like an audition at a photographer's house,

03:08 which is very normal in the modeling industry.

03:10 He looks at my portfolio and he's like, "Thank you, Tyra."

03:13 And then same hour, one of my friends goes and she's like, "He dropped his pants."

03:17 And it's just like, you know, and my friend is not giving him eyes or doing anything.

03:20 I just think I was very lucky.

03:22 Like there were these sliding doors and I was just very lucky to not be a victim of

03:26 this.

03:27 But it doesn't mean that it's not prevalent.

03:28 It's very prevalent and I'm glad things are getting done now.

03:31 It's fascinating to me because I think it's a slippery slope.

03:34 You start to tolerate things that you know aren't right, but who wants to make a big

03:37 stink about it?

03:38 Yeah.
