Tyra Banks and her Unhinged TV Shows did not Age Well

Dear Tyra Banks - why did you make an unhinged version of squid games with models? - edvasian xoxo

[@S_Kirahhh]

Dear Tyra Banks - why did you think it was a good idea to traumatize people? Was it your dream goal🤔 - random person xoxo :) Idk🕴🏽

Dear Tyra Banks, why did you keep letting your "creative directors" bully the models? Was it fun to watch but not enough to do it yourself? -Abbey

Dear Tyra Banks, please retire and get some rest away from people. As we’re still living in a pandemic, you might as well practice social distancing ☺️ - Xoxo

Dear Tyra Banks, what the hell?

[@pettybetty9723]

Dear Tyra, you scare me.

[@darix.f.6677]

There is an episode when the models have to do pictures in a really cold water and Tyra said "if you don't feel good, just tell us". And one model started to say she can't do the pictures because the cold water and Tyra said that modeling is a really difficult work and she had to bear it. The model started to suffer from hypothermia and the paramedics arrived. When she was being treated, Tyra said "WHY SHE DIDN'T TELL US ANYTHING".

[@charliecaturnip4438]

OMG I think I remember this one

[@Lliilllliitthh]

Wasn’t there also an episode where they made the models stand in the freezing cold wind on top of a building in nothing but their undies? and this one really thin model got eliminated for not being able to look comfortable enough or something??

[@sen0440]

wtf is wrong with her

[@mariakan1598]

Like I never understood what was the reasoning behind making everything on set x100 times more dangerous and uncomfortable for the models (besides drama). Like? Yes I'm sure modelling is not an easy job and it will be uncomfortable in many cases but I don't think they will make you freeze on purpose or purposefully get you on a very tall building while u have fear of heights. I'm sure if a model is uncomfortable with something they can easily apply for a less demanding photoshoot

[@malihachowdhury7323]

The woman is a sociopath, I said it.

[@user-_n]

[@ReptilianTeaDrinker]

[@SuperLadyDanger]

I’m a bit disgusted. Can you imagine how the redhead sitting right in front of Tyra must have felt?

[@doindaworst5824]

I had only seen the barking scene with no context! Now I know why…? Hmm… erm… I still don’t know why, hahaha

[@thewizardshu6695]

The audience were laughing. I wonder if they thought the audience would be panicked & scared.

[@apocalypseready6256]

There was an episode where one of the model’s close friends died during her time on set. The next photo shoot, Tyra decided they’d be posing in coffins at a burial site. It was literally the most insulting and disrespectful thing she could ever do, I was absolutely horrified.

[@sen0440]

seriously wtf is wrong with her

[@sarahmcdonough7713]

The show absolutely conceived things purely to create dramatic storylines. I remember the redhead in this video, Kayla, was a lesbian and she was forced to kiss a male model during a photoshoot, despite her extreme discomfort. I’m absolutely certain no one would have had to kiss the male model if they didn’t know she was gay. Unbelievable.

[@Kyarochefort]

Not to defend it since this is horrible, but they probably had to decide this photoshoot and get the approval way before Kahlen's friend died. So it's just a coincidence there.

[@soybean3423]

@@Kyarochefort Yeah I think so too.

[@soybean3423]

@@sarahmcdonough7713 Personally, if I had to kiss a stranger, whether guy or girl, it would make me equally uncomfortable... or even more uncomfortable if it was a guy! (I'm a straight women btw.) But in general I agree that they shouldn't force models to do things they're really uncomfortable with!

I remember when I first watched that scene about her gapped teeth. I literally started tearing up ,she sounded so optimistic when she said “why not” ad looked so happy. But Tyra said that it was “Unmarketable” this scene aged horribly

While the idea of Tyra having all the ANTM girls “change races” was absolutely awful, the girl who was made to look like a “traditional African woman” (as they said) is actually half black. The whole ordeal was a mess, but I just wanted to throw that out there.

[@HobieInTheBox]

Goddamn that's awful 😭 I can't imagine what she was thinking back then or even now, remembering this part of the show.

[@toxxicx]

did she have a milk mustache or what was going on

[@Luci_loves_Bangtan]

@@HobieInTheBox yeah, it was wild. But in the episode, the biracial woman who was made to look African actually said, “I’m half black, so to be made up to look like a traditionally African woman is really exciting to me.” Idk how she feels about it now, but at the time she seemed okay with it. Here’s a link to another video discussing the ANTM controversies and it shows her talking about it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4TPmHR_h66Wb7M

[@Luci_loves_Bangtan]

And just in case there’s any misinterpretation, I’m not saying that anything about the “race swapping” episode was okay or excusable. I’m just pointing out that there was a little bit of context left out regarding that specific model.

[@Luci_loves_Bangtan]

@@toxxicx that’s what I was wondering too. I think maybe it was going to be a “got milk?” ad or something?

[@gracie20]

The gap tooth fix makes me unreasonably mad because that girl looked so beautiful with her gap and it was such a cute character defining trait and they took that from her against her will. The hair changes are whatever to me, it’ll grow back and you shouldn’t put all your self worth in one body part. But the teeth really get to me, Idk why. That and ya know the unending chimera of other problems this show had lol

[@Babyteef]

As somebody whos into fashion and has had a gap tooth all their life, i’ve always been told to fix my teeth. It took ONE person telling me never to fix my gap for me to realise that that is absolute bullshit, Tyra’s right. Your gap tooth is all they’re gonna see. So keep it, it’s the thing that will make your smile stand out, its iconic. A gap tooth isn’t even a strong medical issue or something you need to get fixed, getting it fixed is purely for aesthetics. I don’t know if you actually have a gap tooth or if you’re just really passionate but getting your gap fixed is one of those things that will never not hurt. A gap in your teeth is somthing you only get made fun of bc its different despite it having no effect on your daily life. It should never be an insecuity nor should anybody be telling you that you.re not beautiful because of it. I get wanting to fit into the beauty standard, but being a part of the ebauty standard and being beautiful are two very different things and the gap tooth thing proves just how blurry the line is getting between these two

[@BrendaNaomi]

I recently saw a video about this show and specifically Tyra where contestants came forward and said that being on the show was horrible. Apparently there was purposely very little food in the house so that the models would argue with each bc everyone was hangry. Not to mention eating disorders were encouraged. If they wanted more food they had to buy it with their own money. Also lots of colorism going on which was really harmful for the black models. It made me question why on earth did I watch this show as a teenager. Your commentary is so funny btw, I subbed. I had to fast forward the rabies thing tho, jfc that made me uncomfortable.

My sister at one point was a model and she had wanted to go on the show and watched it religiously when we were younger. I would watch it with her sometimes and even as a kid I told her she shouldn’t go on the show because the models would go through a lot of dangerous task and sets. After rewatching the show when it was put on Netflix, my sister was glad that she was never old enough to participate in it and how toxic the environment really was
