Tyson Beckford is one of the most recognizable faces in the world. In the 90s, he became the face of Polo Ralph Lauren, launching a career as one of the most successful and groundbreaking supermodels in the fashion industry. From gracing hundreds of magazine covers to starring in iconic Britney Spears and Toni Braxton music videos, Tyson has left a lasting mark on fashion and pop culture. He’s modeled for Beyoncé’s Ivy Park, competed on Dancing With the Stars, and even created his own fragrance, Orion Skye.

In this episode, Tyson Beckford sits down with Scentbird’s Marianne Mychaskiw. We get a behind-the-scenes glimpse into the 90s fashion world and his timeless campaigns. Plus, we uncover the grooming secrets that keep him looking great, discover the women’s scent that drives him absolutely wild, and get a sneak peek into his newest project: a show based on his life called Pretty Boy.
