So let me get this straight? Tyra yelled at Tiffany because Tiffany was being a good sport?

[Chocobear]

I hate the idea of Angelea being disqualified because of her past. And don't get me started on the way Kenya was treated when she called that pervert out on his behavior.

As far as the #1 pick is concerned: I despise Tyra's behavior. There is absolutely no excuse for what she did. I do not believe, for one second, that she acted that way because she cared about Tiffany. I think we saw the real Tyra Banks in that moment. And the real Tyra Banks may be beautiful on the outside, but horrifically ugly on the inside.

the fact that these challenges do not actually teach or help you be a model. You literally just make a fool of yourself on tv while Tyra makes money...

[nickwheeler]

Tyra to Tiffany: YOU DIDN'T CRY WHEN I ELIMINATED YOU SO I'M GONNA YELL IN YOUR FACE AND MAKE YOU CRY!!!!

[PokhrajRoy.]

This whole show was one shocking moment after another. You need atleast 150 videos to go through the major WTF moments.

[Becsx]

The girl who get blame for that male model who was harassing her, that was the worse... I can't even think about how she felt...

[Slm]

That show was so unhinged and Tyra has the emotion range of a spoon.

[mypeopleskillsarerusty]

I did not realize how toxic that show was when I watched it

[margarethmichelina]

Watching ANTM as an adult, I realized that this show is not about Tyra Banks helping those aspire models to be famous but instead it's about her making a cult to worship her. She embarrased them by giving extreme challenges, humiliate them if they either too cocky or too quiet and if someone tried to stand up for themselves, Tyra and the other judges will said that they crossed the line and disrespectful the judges.
Also, notice how most of the words that came out from this show has the word "Tyra" or"Ty" on it?
Like Ty-over, Ty-vision, Tyra Mail and many more???
And every team members of the show always said "Tyra wants this, Tyra wants that, This is not Tyra's standard! You should follow what Tyra said."
That's something a cult leader will do!

[asymrsqueezes]

If I was Tyra Banks I would live every day in fear of the inevitable documentary about the toxic ANTM culture.

[charleneelyce]

I'm surprised the cycle 7 challenge with the wobbly runway in the middle of the water wasn't included. That challenge was unbelievable and wouldn't ever happen in the real world. It was unnecessarily cruel. Actually....most challenges on the show's run were cruel and unnecessary. But for some reason that one sticks out in the my head the most.

[dainalopez]

I remember that episode about Rebecca thought she was going to have a seizure. Made me upset no one didn't caught her to prevent her from falling to the ground. 😔

[larahedge]

Lots of the stuff Tyra did to the contestants of the show was mean yet she hasn't apologized for anything

[veronicapiccinini]

How about that time they made photos inside coffins, and one of the girls just happened to learn that one of her friends died from overdose in that same day? That’s insensitive.

[WhitfieldSinclair]

Keenyah wasn't the first model with a terrible male model. When they went to Spain in season 7, a Spanish model told Jaeda, the African American contestant, "I don't like black girls." Tyra nor her crew did a thing.

[kataw]

For me, the most shocking moment was when they aired Shandee's confession. It was so shocking and inhumane to air something so painful and personal that all that they did afterwards didn't surprise me.

The one they didn't list here that I found to be even more inhumane was when they did the 7 deadly sins photo shoot inside a grave the day after Kaylen(?) found out her friend died.

[henriklarssoneurovisioncha]

The fact that all the models who did the interviews with Oliver Twixt said about what they did on ANTM : "that will never happend in the fashion industry "... that say alot !!

[aml]

ANTM was just a way for Tyra to play the mean girl roll while pretending to be a big sister to these girls.

[StatRM]

There was also that time when a contestant with vitiligo got called "panda" by a famous photographer or costume designer (I can't remember which it was), and when she approached him and told him how inappropriate it was for him to call her that, he, instead of apologizing, got defensive and said she was being ungrateful and should consider herself lucky to have earned an "affectionate nickname" from him.

[AyameObsessed]

There are tons of upsetting things about ANTM but it deeply deeply upsets me that Angelea was disqualified at the last moment for being a sex worker, especially if the production was well aware of the situation before letting her compete. Trashy.
