Tyra Banks Says She’s Created ‘Hot Ice Cream’

And no, no one else knows what it means.

For decades, ice cream sellers have faced a major problem: how do you sell tasty frozen treats when it gets cold out? No one’s ringing in a minus 10 degree day with a Cornetto!

Now, there’s a solution — or at least, Tyra Banks thinks there’s one. Her idea? *Hot* ice cream.

I know what you’re thinking: “That’s a contradiction!” Well, according to Banks, it’s not. She says that she simply worked with an ice cream maker to make an ideal flavor, then melted that flavor and heated it up. This is, by Banks’ definition, hot ice cream.

Of course, this is actually just hot cream, but it’s a bit harder to sell people on the idea of drinking 1,000 calories of berry-flavored full-fat dairy without a bit of branding.

Right now, it doesn’t seem like people are totally sold on the idea. Most of the comments under the social media announcement post simply express confusion, with one person saying that the invention “feels like something out of Zoolander.”

Not exactly high praise!
