- I cannot get this one wrong.
Shoot, wait--no.
Dang, I don't know.
Nobody's gonna trust any bra or panty that I ever sold.
(groans)
(lighthearted music)
Hey, what's up, Tyra Banks here.
And I'm about to play Expensive Taste Test with Cosmo.
The rules are really simple.
Their gonna place two objects in front of me,
and then I need to guess which one is more expensive.
Duh, piece of cake.
I'm going to rock this, hunny.
I know what's expensive and what's not.
(upbeat music)
This just... looks like--
the same though.
Wait, there was somebody that did this.
Who was it?
Was it Billie Eilish?
Was it Lizzo?
There was somebody that had gummy bears.
It was Australian rapper, Iggy.
This is not fair.
When she did this,
she had gummy bears and they were obviously different.
One was champagne rose
and one was like the stuff that we've been eating
since we were two years old.
But, this is exactly the same.
Here I go.
It's good.
I'm not a gummy girl,
but that tastes like pink lemonade,
which tends to be a more expensive flavor.
'Cause it's pink.
'Cause yellow lemonade,
it would be cheap.
Let me see this pink one.
Pink lemonade, again, but not as tart.
Okay, I'ma go like this.
This is chewier.
More expensive.
I feel like it's fresher,
it's more expensive 'cause it's chewier,
and it's cheap, when it's like hard,
and gets all tuff.
More expensive.
No.
(upbeat music)
Oh gosh.
I used to box, back in the day,
I actually got really, really good.
And my nickname became Butterfly Banks.
"Sugar" Ray Leonard, boxing champion, legend,
named me Butterfly Banks,
because he said I was so fast, like a butterfly.
So, I know boxing gloves, hun-ty.
These are Everlast,
these are like, the go-to boxing glove.
They feel nice, and tight, and strong.
Venum?
Spelled kinda weird.
They feel soft, scrunchy.
I feel like these are,
you know, bargain, kinda.
I'm gonna go with Everlast.
- [Woman] Incorrect.
- What!
I don't understand what's happening.
(upbeat music)
Mm-hmm.
So yeah, I was with that very famous,
lingerie company.
So, I think I know my lingerie,
being with them for so long.
Not with them anymore, but I was.
Let me feel this one, first of all.
I don't know, this feels a little, like,
thick and tuff, and kinda like, wrinkly.
Oohhh, yes, this is very expensive, I just know it.
I-- I think, wait, wait, wait,
wait, one second, oh gosh, now I'm stumped.
Dammit.
Dang, I don't know.
Do you understand that if I get this one wrong,
the years and years that I was a lingerie model,
like nobody's gonna trust any bra or panty that I ever sold?
I can't get this one wrong, I cannot get this one wrong.
(grunts)
Cannot get this wrong.
This one's more expensive.
Right?
- [Woman] Tyra. - This one's more expensive?
- [Woman] Yes. - Yes?
(sighs) Do you understand that my entire career
was weighing on this answer?
They would've returned
Victoria Secret bras from 15 years ago.
The company would've been like,
wait, we ain't taking this back.
Oh, yes you are.
(upbeat music)
Oh, berets, oh, oh, you tryna--
oh, you tryna like, okay--
(stutters)
Now, I'm rockin' a beret.
That you can get at ModelLand, by the way.
But I know berets.
So, here we go.
Gosh, okay.
This is, dang, machine, kinda, thingy.
Oh my god, this one's more expensive.
This one is more--
I don't know.
Shoot, wait, no.
Okay, this one just feels like,
I wanna have a French accent.
Where I think the beret came from.
Or did Americans just make that like a French thing?
This one makes me feel like I want to talk this this.
You know, like,
Bonjour, je m'appelle Tyra.
La beret has this tag that I do not see what it is,
because you trying to hide it from me and fool me.
But you cannot fool me.
This one makes me just say,
oh my god, I'm from LA and like, you know,
it's cheap, I feel it.
It feels like rough.
(speaking French)
- [Woman] Yes. - Finally.
Because I know a beret.
(upbeat music)
Seeing that I am a barbecue connoisseur
and barbecue meats and sauces
are one of my favorite things in the entire world,
barbecue sauce that tends to have a thick viscosity
that doesn't really move a lot,
tends to be the ones that are quite affordable.
Barbecue sauces that kinda roll around
and go upside down,
and just drip so nicely like that,
tend to be more expensive.
Tend to be more homemade, am I right?
- [Woman] That's correct.
- Yes, I didn't even have to taste it.
(upbeat music)
This looks to be a beverage that is sparkling,
possibly with no sugar,
which I am a connoisseur of.
I order this on the daily,
every time I'm in the grocery store,
I pick up loads of this,
so I think I can tell which one costs more.
(lighthearted music)
Oh wait, that's flat.
Damn, I don't know.
I'm thirsty.
This water has a bit more of a pad to it.
Feels a bit softer, a bit fluffier in texture in my mouth,
it expands when it hits my mouth.
This one...
sharper, kinda cuts through.
More expensive, sharper.
- [Woman] Got it. - Yes!
(upbeat music)
Like an expensive nail or not an expensive nail?
I don't know, have you seen my nails?
You see how busted these things are?
How the hell do I know if a nail is expensive,
looking at these?
Feel the bend of it, let me see.
This one feels a little sharper, sparkly,
but I am not gonna be fooled by diamonds,
just because it has some diamonds on it,
don't mean that it's expensive.
M'kay, so let me
put that on this hand.
Let's see.
Does that look expensive to you?
I'm gonna raise my hand.
I think that... this one's more expensive.
- [Woman] Sorry, Tyra, you're wrong.
- No!
It was matte and it's pointy.
Ah, man.
So, this well diamonds?
(upbeat music)
I know there's these jade rollers.
What is this called, a quartz roller?
This one feels a lot heavier.
A little-- there's a little shake.
Little smaller shake.
Oh, it's cold.
Guess that's the point, right?
She's colder, she's larger, she's more expensive.
- [Woman] Got it.
- Oh, finally.
(upbeat music)
Oh, I sleep in this type of stuff.
Flannel and plaid.
Let's start with this one.
The color is slightly more orange red.
Not that color really matters.
These buttons are kind of like tigers eye.
These are black.
Sometimes when you need
to know if something is more expensive,
turn to
the color.
This has a color of a different fabric.
Because I know sometimes, the fabric of the flannel
might not be that comfortable on someones neck.
This one has the same exact fabric on it.
This one feels a little rougher,
this one feels slickly and smooth.
More expensive.
- [Woman] You got it.
- Yay!
(claps)
(lighthearted music)
I think I did really great.
Unfortunately, I am not a consumer of gummy candy's.
And I just wanna give that disclaimer,
that I feel like you should give that to me,
seeing as I am not an expert in that.
