A Former “America’s Next Top Model” Contestant Says They Were Only Paid $40 A Day
You know what they say, you can’t make an omelette without breaking a few eggs just like you can’t make an episode of America’s Next Top Model without a few broken-down baby dolls. For 24 cycles that seemed to go on for decades, aspiring models have contorted their limbs, tooshed their boots, smized their eyes, had pubic hair glued to their faces, and generally made fools of themselves at Tyra Bank’s bidding. All for the chance to become America’s Next Top Model, a title as meaningless as one of Tyra’s made-up words.
Tyra Banks Is Getting Called Out For The Messy Shit She Said And Did On “America’s Next Top Model”
Welcome to Cancel Culture: Retroactive Edition.
America’s Next Top Model first debuted in 2003 and there have been 24 seasons of it since then. Tyra Banks hosted and was the head judge for all but one season. And since the internet has the time during this lockdown, some have been watching old seasons of ANTM and are just realizing that it was a mess. So Tyra trended on Twitter from people getting outraged over the vintage messiness. And they weren’t just mad about that time she gave a guy a “beard weave“. They brought up colorism, blackface, and just a plethora of disrespect. I mean, yeah, that was the whole show. Tyra was the type to shave a trick bald and then send her ass home the next day. No fucks given.
