    AceShowbiz – Eva Marcille spoke out against “America’s Next Top Model” judge Janice Dickinson as she recalled her time on the show. In a new episode of “The Undressing Room” podcast, the former “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” star shared that she got some unsolicited advice from Janice after winning Cycle 3 of the show.
    “When I won ‘Top Model’, the first thing I was told was — outside of [Tyra Banks]’ ‘Congratulations’ — Janice Dickinson said, ‘Now you can take your money and go get your nose fixed,’ ” Eva told her co-hosts Lore’l and Dominique Da Diva. She went on to say sarcastically, “Um… I didn’t know my nose was broke. I didn’t know there was anything wrong with it. It’s working.”
    The TV personality went on to say, “This is the same nose, same big lips, same everything. My point is people always have something to say, especially when you are in the light, they have something to say about your aesthetics, good or bad. There’s always something that someone’s going to have to say about you.”

    “So the question is, is at what point do you stop listening to the world and start listening to yourself?” Eva concluded her message. Janice has yet to respond to Eva’s comment.
    Eva isn’t the only former “ANTM” contestant who slammed the show’s panelist member. Earlier this year, Lisa D’Amato took to Instagram to recount her awful experience on the show, risking being sued for breach of contract. She accused Tyra of using her childhood trauma against her, writing on January 29, “Remember when I had an opportunity to ask you one question in season 5 – a modeling question – and I came in and asked you a question that wasn’t about modeling and you kicked me out? Can I get that question back?”
    “I did it knowing that this was a breach of contract, still, because I felt like it was my duty to warn other girls that were going to audition for ‘America’s Next Top Model’ to know that what you guys do and the way that you guys would poke me and use my childhood trauma against me, day in and day out,” Lisa, who finished in sixth place in Cycle 5, continued. “It was just so f***ed up, and it broke my heart. Like, how could you do that?”
    “You, Tyra, you knew very well the horrible trauma that my mom inflicted on me, and you also talk so much about how you wouldn’t be where you are without your mother and how powerful she is,” the winner of “ANTM: All Stars” season 17 further alleged. “So knowing that, you still did that to me and continued to do it to other girls, even after I spoke publicly about it.”

      Tyra Banks on Controversial 'ANTM' Episodes: 'I Cringe Through the Eyes of Today'

      by

      VH1

      The ‘America’s Next Top Model’ host and judge reveals she struggled to watch the controversial episodes as she admits what they did on the show was wrong.
      May 30, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tyra Banks struggles to watch old episodes of “America’s Next Top Model” after receiving backlash over a number of controversial moments.
      Historic clips from the show have been resurfacing online as fans have looked back at some of the more cringeworthy moments from the TV talent contest’s history.
      Viewers have taken to social media to vent their frustrations at particular moments, including the host telling Cycle 6 winner Dani Evans that she’d never be a successful model because of the gap in her teeth. Other contentious moments include Cycle 13’s “biracial themed” photo shoot, where contestants had their skin darkened.
      After previously accepting the criticism on social media, the star opened up on the controversy in a chat with Entertainment Tonight, insisting, “Yes, I apologised for it. Because we put it out and even me just watching it after, I was like, ‘Oh, this ain’t right.’ ”
      “We felt like our skin is beautiful, let’s paint the world our colour. And then when we saw it, we were like, ‘Oh no, this excuses other people to do this in a negative way,’ ” she explained. “We realised that, and I went on my talk show and did an entire segment on what we did. What we did was wrong, and we apologised for it.”
      Referring to the clip where she calls out Evans, Banks admitted that when she looks back at that episode, “I cringe.”
      “And I cringe through the eyes of today,” she added.
      Taking to Twitter to address the criticism, Tyra, who has been hosting the show since 2003 and serves as executive producer, previously wrote, “Been seeing the posts about the insensitivity of some past ANTM moments and I agree with you.”
      “Looking back, those were some really off choices,” she added. “Appreciate your honest feedback and am sending so much love and virtual hugs.”

      Tyra Banks Owns Up to Resurfacing 'Insensitive' Moment From 'America's Next Top Model'

      by

      WENN

      The creator/host of the long-running modeling competition finds herself under fire after a clip from a past episode in which she confronted Dani Evans about the gap in her teeth came out online again.
      May 9, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tyra Banks has acknowledged she was in the wrong. Finding herself under fire for her past treatment to aspiring models after a series of clips from old “America’s Next Top Model” cycles resurfaced online, the former Victoria’s Secret Angel came forward with a statement in which she accepted her erroneous ways.
      “Been seeing the posts about the insensitivity of some past ANTM moments and I agree with you,” the 46-year-old TV personality said in a tweet she posted on Friday, May 8. “Looking back, those were some really off choices.” Though she did not offer an apology, she added, “Appreciate your honest feedback and am sending so much love and virtual hugs.”

      Tyra Banks Responded to Backlash Over Insensitive ‘ANTM’ Moment
      One of the viral clips many had issued with captured a moment between Tyra and Cycle 6 winner Dani Evans. In it, the former host of “America’s Got Talent” confronted the then-wannabe model about the gap in her teeth. “So, Danielle, you went to the dentist but you refused to have your gap closed,” she said in the footage. “Do you really think you can have a CoverGirl contract with a gap in your mouth?”
      Dani lively replied, “Yes, why not?” In response, Tyra put her finger up to her front teeth to mimic having a gap while telling her, “This is all people see. It’s easy, breezy, beautiful CoverGirl. It’s not marketable.” The creator’s statement got Dani relenting as she told the judging panel, “A little bit is ok but I don’t want to completely close it.”
      The cringeworthy moment quickly gained attention in the negative way. Model Slick Woods reposted the clip on her Instagram with a caption that read, “No one should ever talk to you like that @danievans1, that episode fucked up little simone/slick so that’s how y’all feel @tyrabanks @miss_jalexander???”

      Nightly Pop’s Nina Parker has also weighed in on the issue through a Twitter post. “I remember watching this as a young woman & I felt extremely discouraged to be on TV bc of this scene,” she wrote. “I was disappointed in Tyra then… She ended up pressuring this girl to get dental surgery to be ‘marketable.’ Also my gap & TV contract say HI!”

      Nina Parker Blasted Tyra Banks for Insensitive ‘ANTM’ Comment
      Dani herself has a few days earlier addressed the controversy in a video she posted on Instagram. “This is a video for me to speak my truth and to provide clarity and for me to address an issue that was done 15 years ago, that carries weight and clearly affected a lot of young girls in America after watching it,” she began explaining.
      “I want to address all of those young girls. I’m gonna take this time to build up and to speak to all of my young queens who saw that episode and were truly affected by Tyra’s words,” the 34-year-old continued. She then told those watching her video, “I want to speak to you right now. You’re beautiful. And I’m not talking about a physical feature.”

      “It doesn’t matter if you have a gap, stacked teeth, straight teeth, it matters not. It doesn’t matter if you’re black, brown, white, indifferent, other. What makes you beautiful is in here,” she went on delivering her positive message. “I’m speaking to all the little girls. If I could love on all of you right now, I would. I want to remind you of your worth. You’re a masterpiece, you’re so loved, you’re adored and you’re beautiful.”

      Tyra Banks Slammed After Old 'ANTM' Clip of Her Telling Off a Model Over Gap Tooth Resurfaces

      by

      Instagram

      In the video, Tyra advises contestant Danielle Evans to close the gap in her front teeth, saying, ‘Do you really think you can a have a covergirl contract with a gap in your mouth?’
      May 6, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Tyra Banks has some explaining to do. The former “America’s Next Top Model” host and judge is under fire after an old clip from season six of the reality competition show resurfaces online, featuring her alleged problematic behavior.
      The clip was brought to attention by Twitter user @OladapoAisha, who posted it on her account on Tuesday, May 5. In the video, Tyra advised contestant Danielle Evans to close the gap in her front teeth.
      “So, Danielle, you went to the dentist, but you refused to have your gap closed. Do you really think you can a have a covergirl contract with a gap in your mouth?” Tyra said, to which Danielle optimistically responded, “Yes. Why not?”
      While pointing at her own teeth, Tyra explained, “This is all people see. It’s easy, breezy, beautiful covergirl. It’s not marketable.” Danielle then said, “Just a little bit is okay, but I don’t wanna completely close it.”
      Judge and runway coach J. Alexander chimed in, “Well, I guess she just left the gap wide open for another girl, baby.” Despite that, Danielle ended up winning the season.

      “Why was this allowed to air wtf Tyra banks is going to straight hell,” Oladapo captioned the footage, which quickly set the tongues wagging. Some people on the blue bird app noted that some other professional models also have gap tooth. ” ‘It’s not marketable.’ Meanwhile Georgia May Jagger has a big a** gap tooth and is one the main faces for Rimmel Woozy face,” one person stated.
      “@tyrabanks is really trash. It’s like she started this show to intentionally treat these young woman in such a horrible way… the same way she thought [Naomi Campbell] treated her. She gave herself the authority to treat these women like trash and had judges who backed her up. Smh,” added another fan.
      Meanwhile, a user alleged, “In another season Tyra actually makes a girl’s tooth gap LARGER. Tyra is insane.” Someone else recalled when Tyra “really force a girl to go nude on camera for an AUDITION. And had Janiece of all people (who accused [Bill] Cosby for sexual assault )TO BACK HER UP AS A JUDGEFlushed faceFlushed faceFlushed faceTHE IRONY OF IT ALL.”
      Tyra has yet to respond to the criticism.
