Is it possible to be so hot that you’re cool? Tyra Banks seems ready to find out.







The former supermodel and entrepreneur has announced her latest creation, hot ice cream . The phrase alone has left the internet buzzing with confusion, curiosity, and plenty of questions.







Banks’ dessert venture, Smize & Dream , was inspired by her mother, Carolyn London. On the brand’s site, she recalls how their Friday nights together sparked her lifelong love of ice cream.








“During Mama’s hard working years, every Friday night after homework and dinner, we’d have girls night at the Häagen Dazs ice cream shop in Hollywood!” Banks wrote.








“While licking our chocolate (her fave) and coffee (my fave) ice creams in her white Honda Accord, in her cray-cray-in a-good-way style, she’d school me on her laser-focused one-more-bedroom goals and more. We’d laugh, cry and DREAM our biggest, most outrageous CREATIVE DREAMS… together.”







That ritual eventually inspired her to start her own ice cream company , which currently operates a shop in Australia.







Now, decades later, Banks is back in the spotlight with what she calls “the world’s first HOT ice cream experience.” Announcing the product online, she teased: “Not a latte. Not a hot chocolate. But your favorite scoops, transformed into liquid. hot. ice cream. Sippable, baby.”







The drink, called Hot Mama, appears to be a warm, sip-ready version of ice cream, though its exact form remains a mystery. The product isn’t listed on her company’s website yet, and Banks’ team has playfully dismissed all guesses, from “custard” to “melted milkshake,” leaving fans even more intrigued.










Internet reactions and speculation







As with many of Banks’ creative ventures, the internet has been divided. Some fans are intrigued, while others are bewildered.



Comments on her posts range from fascination to outright confusion. “Tyra what the hell are you talking about?” one user wrote. “We need more details.”







Writers and fans alike have admitted they can’t quite figure out what the product actually is, or how it differs from simply warmed ice cream. The air of mystery seems intentional, fueling both skepticism and anticipation.
