Tyrant Banks Has Basically Fired Everyone
America's Next Top J. Jill Catalog Model's ratings have been falling faster than Tyra Banks' sanity and so she has pulled her defibrillator out to try to save it from completely flatlining. The New York Post reports that sometime yesterday, TyTy and the show's executive producer Ken Mok fired noted fashion photographer Nigel Barker, noted sashayer Miss J and noted Tron unicorn Mr. J. All three of them have been with that shit since the beginning. TyTy confirmed on Facebook that the 19th season will be Nigel-less and J-less:
To my Nigel Barker, Miss J, and Mr Jay: Thank you for all of our years together on America's Next Top Model! Working with you is always an absolute pleasure. Excited for what the future holds for us. XOXO, TyTy
Meanwhile, the deflating bag of cold farts that is Kelly Cutrone is staying on as a judge.
Apparently, TyTy is giving the 19th season a complete makeover and wants to bring social media into that shit. The producers are talking to a few fashions bloggers including BryanBoy.
Why doesn't TyTy just get it over with and turn ANTM into America's Next Top Tyra Is Tyra, judged by Tyra, styled by Tyra, starring Tyra and only Tyra? Nigel and Jay Manuel can go, but firing Miss Jay is like purposefully dimming the sparkle on a piece of glitter. TyTy has finally broken out of her straitjacket and gone full crazy bitch. But what's even crazier is that I'll still suffer through season 19, because I have major abandonment issues when it comes to reality shit shows (see: Survivor, Amazing Race, Dancing with the Has-Beens, The Real World, Cops, etc.. etc...).
• 
Tyra was always the least interesting and most annoying part of the show. No reason to watch ANTM now
uh. lol these people were the only reason i EVER watched this show. that was a big mistake. i've watched almost every season and to be completely honest, without noted fashion photographer nigel barker, miss j. and (my personal favourite) mr. j., there's no show.
PAAAAAAAANTY PARTYYYY!

I used to take up for Tyra. I'm over it. Done.
I've long been a ANTM devotee. It's my one reality tv vice. I found it SO funny when, in the last season here (UK) Nigel showed up with hair and he looked so freakin' hot that Tyty made him shave it all off again, saying that the bald look was just too synonymous with him to let go of. Yeah, right. Let those locks flow Nigel! It's like a twisted Samson and Delilah!
And wow - usually there is some joy to be had watching Tyra's crazy ego but that end of the All-star series was just BAD. The tie-in with her book and all those scenes the girls had to play where they played different versions of Tyra was painful. And the thumb-sucking shoot with Tyson was just cringeworthy. The woman is crazy. And I thought it was obvious what the reason Angelea was stripped of her crown must have been. She had to have slept with Tyson.

the show is fucked because it doesnt have any creds.
the girls tyra picks to win never get 15 minutes let alone 1 minute of fame.
their candles burnt out long before the show was over.
the show relied too much on sob sob stories
ohh i was homeless
ohh i was fat and homeless
ohh i was fat, homeless and gay
ohh i was fat, homeless, gay and had a bad childhood.
ooh i was fat, homeless, gay, had a bad childhood and im poor

i disagree, it was like that to begin with.
I loved watching Miss J try to teach the "models" to walk a runway decently. Nigel and Mr. Jay at least made sense; the opposite of Tyrant. The show has devolved into a giant egoclusterfuck for her insane self-aggrandizement.
Nigel Barker is the hottest piece of British gorgeousness that ever walked the earth. This will not stand. Off with Tyra's multiple heads !!!
Cover Girl never uses any of the winners in anything maybe like one photo shoot? You always see Ellen, Queen, and Drew Barrymore as the main models.
I've NEVER watched it, but in real life Kelly Cutrone is a MENACE and MUST BE DESTROYED. I've never come across anybody more EVIL! I know, tell you how I really feel.

TYRA, FIRE YOURSELF, CRAZY BITCH.
****************************************************************************
Not a bad idea at all. Honestly, everybody I know who's stopped watching this show says it's because they can't stand Tyra's antics any longer. I've never heard anybody say, "I quit watching ANTM because I hate Miss J" or something.
Tyra has become totally insane, to the point where i say that with very little snark. I mean, the woman really seems to have a screw loose. Using a fake French accent for no reason, insisting on everyone use fake slang like "tooch" and "smize", dressing up as a superhero and giving all the girls superhero names, etc. It's awkward to watch. Even the girls on the show look a little nervous when she starts up with this shit, like she might go right off the deep end and stab one of them with a stiletto for not "tooching" correctly.
I think this show would pull in better ratings if Tyra toned down the crazy a bit and gave actual modelling advice. Tyra knows a lot about the modelling industry and could be really helpful if she wanted to, but she seems hell-bent on acting like a lunatic instead.

while she's at it, she might as well get a plastic surgeon and vocal coach to throw into the mix 'cos most of the girls that win are too ghetto to talk like humans or have fatal body flaws that would get them nothing more than shown to the exit door of any reputable modeling agency.
-----------------------------------------------
well indeed but you know why that is dont you? this show is nothing more than an ego boost for queenie ego. cos DONTCHA KNOW TYRA WILL ALWAYS BE THE NO.1 TOP MODEL EVAH?!?! HOW DARE YOU NOT BOW DOWN TO THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN THE WORLD TYRA-WHO IS A REVOLUTIONARY AND HERO FOR BLACK WOMEN WORLDWIDE.... (the dumb cow actually believes this) etc etc you get the idea.

The whole "next TOP model" aspect of this show is just bullshit.
Tyra is pretty irritating so I'm surprised that they didn't just quit ages ago. No need for gawjuss divas like that noted photographer and the other guy to put up with her fuckery for too long. As for Miss J, I always got the impression that he actually liked Tyra.

I love how Tyrants FB page has a pic with this quote:
People are often unreasonable, illogical and self centered;
Forgive them anyway.
If you are kind, people may accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives;
Be kind anyway.
If you are successful, you will win some false friends and some true enemies;
Succeed anyway.
If you are honest and sincere, people may deceive you you;
Be honest and sincere anyway.
What you spend years building, someone could destroy overnight;
Build anyway.
If you find serenity and happiness, they may be jealous;
Be happy anyway.
The good you do today, people will often forget tomorrow;
Do good anyway.
Give the world the best you have, and it may never be enough;
Give the world the best you've got anyway.
You see, in the final analysis, it is between you and your God;
It was never between you and them anyway.
She's so deluded and self-centered it's disgusting. I guess she posted this to make herself feel better about the firings..Whatever helps you sleep at night bitch.

What struck me about Cutrone is that, besides her totally nasty personality, she always looks a mess. She is supposedly all about calling out people for unprofessional behavior in the workplace, and yet she looks like she just rolled out of bed...how is she qualified to judge modeling?

so she wants fashion bloggers to judge now? that's the dumbest fuck idea I've ever heard 'cos I guess that means she'll get that teenaged, Tavi person and doofuses like Perez to make the call.
while she's at it, she might as well get a plastic surgeon and vocal coach to throw into the mix 'cos most of the girls that win are too ghetto to talk like humans or have fatal body flaws that would get them nothing more than shown to the exit door of any reputable modeling agency.
bitch should just call it a day, take her short-cut, Harvard degree and go start her own country to rule - preferably far, far away from the rest of us...
She just fired the three best people on the show. I love the Jay's and Nigel seems pretty nice. Tyra should just end the show already if all she wants to keep is that cunty fat lady.
Jay Manuel hates Tyra's ass. I'm surprised he didn't get the boot a long time ago. He was the host of "Canada's Next Top Model" and once when he told a girl her picture was fierce he then made a horrible face and said loudly "I HATE that word." It was a pretty obvious dig at Tyrant cuz we all know that is her favorite word ever. Plus he's just seemed grumpier and grumpier as ANTM goes on. You can tell he doesn't want to be there.
I'm surprised Nigel and Miss J got the axe though.
The show is a guilty pleasure of mine. I often wonder how the more ghetto hoodrat girls fare in the real fashion world.
it's more appalling to me this show has lasted 19 seasons...

I didn't know who Kelly Cutrone was until I looked her up. She used to be on that show "The City". She was a bit of a jerk then.

This episode brought to you by the letter SHUTUP.
Wow. I remember watching that show like...5 years ago? What year was it when Twitter Titties won? The best episodes were the ones where Tyra was mostly absent. She comes across as a super annoying know-it-all who tries to seem all motherly and "I've been there". I give her a "6" on the White Oprah delusional scale, which means there's hope but she has to stop NOW.
Not crazy with this season's Brits VS U.S. season though it's growing on me. This weeks fashion shoot with them on the food table was THE WORST. All those photos were horrendous. They got rid of Azmarie and she was the one who could have probably been a top model. They never pick unique or quirky as they should. Allison is a good example. Everyone knows that face when they see it and THAT'S what makes a top model. I'll still watch no matter what cause I just love photography.

This season is by far the worst ever. No one cares about or even knew there was a rivalry between US and UK models. Also, I hate that ugly nasal black wearing bitch Kelly Cutrone. She adds nothing to this show. Her show on Bravo was awful and she is a nasty horrible person.

Every other show on TV has a disproportionate amount of white winners or contestants. Some people recently pointed out that the Bachelor/Bachelorette has been on TV for 10 years and not ONCE had a non-white "star". Tyra is just diversifying the airwaves
That person's post reminded me of when some dunce complained that all Drag Race winners had been black, notwithstanding that Drag Race is one of the only shows on the air where every race gets to be represented.
The same people never open mouth to complain when 99.999999% of everything ELSE on TV is 99.999999% white, or when a TV show is set in New York City, which is only 35% white, and the entire cast is white. They don't think to whine about statistics then.

I used to get tight in the pants with Tyra; until she spoke. She is whatever is right below crazy.
this season sucks......with all the stupid names she gave all the girls ....and the "booty tooch"......and the most "model LIke ' girl got sent home when she wouldnt do the "booty tooch"..
Do we really think they weren't begging to be set free by now?

I didn't even know this show still came on. Last season I saw was the one with all petite models.
Didn't mean to offend just stating statistical averages and should have pointed out that only one plus size model and one Latina have ever won and they represent large percentages of the population.

Narcissistic idiot Ty Ty is the reason the show sucks and always has been. First, there's her unrealistic demand that 1/2 the winners be black (despite the fact that blacks represent 10 percent of the US population)
2010 US Census showed that 12.6% of people in the U.S. are black. Okay, you rounded. But only 63.7% were white (non-Hispanic origin). If we're going to go with representative percentages of the US races/ethnicities for winners then where are the Hispanic (16.3%), Asian (4.8%), etc. winners Tyra?! But seriously, so what if she has more black winners, it's her show. Every other show on TV has a disproportionate amount of white winners or contestants. Some people recently pointed out that the Bachelor/Bachelorette has been on TV for 10 years and not ONCE had a non-white "star". Tyra is just diversifying the airwaves.
I called this one years ago when she was playing musical chairs with the right side of the panel. She was crazy back in the day and getting way worse. Making fun of these poor girls is getting under the true professionals skin.
MK has it spot on once again. Tyra is one step down from Axl Rose crazy.
Sometimes it looks like even Kunty Karl would be easier to handle than that crazy ass ho. For a start, he speaks actual proper French and not the funhouse mirror version she and ATL have going on.
The only thing to look forward to is maybe a tell-all magazine article from ex-contestants and judges - I think that would be fun.
Ty Ty will be alright even if they get rid of her show. She has that loooong money. Mr. J sucked!

I finally gave up for good after All-Stars. What a boring mess that turned out to be.
None of the girls (except annoying Lisa) seemed to give a shit about winning. I rooted for goth koala bear Allison by default.
