Tyra Banks, 51, Sparks Mixed Reaction With Her Look at the 'Freakier Friday' Australian Premiere

The '90s supermodel dazzled on the Australian red carpet, sharing a reunion with a former co-star at one of Disney's most anticipated premieres of the year.

Tyra Banks attended the "Freakier Friday" premiere on August 5, 2025, at Event Cinemas Bondi Junction in Sydney, where photos of her appearance quickly drew mixed reactions from netizens.

The 51-year-old supermodel and television personality wore a chocolate-brown satin gown paired with a structured leather corset. The off-shoulder draped neckline and flowing skirt added elegance to the look, while a sleek, center-parted bob and understated makeup kept the focus on her outfit.

Banks style evolution over the decades — from her rise as a top model in the 1990s to her work as a television host and entrepreneur — has kept her in the public eye. Her latest appearance highlighted both her adaptability and her enduring red carpet presence.

The event reunited Banks with Lindsay Lohan, her co-star from the 2000 Disney Channel film "Life-Size." The pair posed together for photographers, marking 25 years since the movie's release. Entertainment Tonight shared images from the Sydney premiere, noting the nostalgic callback to their on-screen partnership.

Reactions to Banks’s appearance were mixed on social media. One netizen asked, "Is that Tyra banks [sic]?????" Another added, "Oh my god." A third commented, "Omg! I didn't even recognize Tyra, she looks completely different." One fan praised her youthful appearance, "Will Tyra Banks ever age? I think not."

By pairing a standout fashion choice with a reunion that evoked early-2000s nostalgia, Banks made one of the most talked-about appearances of the "Freakier Friday" premiere.
