Meet the Models


Top Model is back and the competition is as fierce (and unique) as ever. Forty semi-finalists arrive in LA and began livin' it up model-style with a pool party in their new pad. We met some of the hopefuls including a North Carolina mom named Amanda, two big and beautiful plus-sized models, Toccara and Mary, Cassie the stripper from Oklahoma and Norelle, a real life Cinderella with an evil stepmother (and braces!). The pool party got a bit crazy when Eva, nicknamed Eva the Diva by the ladies, and Ann, her newfound BFF and six time American athlete, were being disrespectful in the pool splashing some of the other ladies...a surefire way to make some instant enemies.

Trya,
at one point I did not like looking at you, because thinking my daughter model looked better, but since than learing it is not only how you look but what is inside, even through my daughter did not go any futher,not that she did not want to but haveing children can slow things down a bit, and after being off work and watchen your show daily, I like to say you seem like a sweet girl in the heart and i wish and pray that you have all the success in your life.

I did send in a casting picture of myself and my husband, ,but coming to New York really dont think at this time we can not make it there, but hopefully one day when you return to Los Angeles area, and i heard you like to eat, I am a down home cook along with a few friends would like to cook for you and your cast, heard you like to eat!
this is on us of course, not trying to open a catering buisness, because feel i am pass that point, been a cook 29+ years just like to share .

God bless Alice johnson _Samm

What ever happen to Saleisha Naima and some of the other winners or females that was on America's Next Top Model. I have seen Eva, Tocarra, and Yaya all on on TV. What ever happen to the rest. I have even seen Adrian Curry on TV before.

Tyra girl Miss Jay Alexander was looking good when she was in the Hood boy outfit where they were doin the double shots of the girls...

I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHERE ALL THE GIRLS ARE NOW! WHAT HAPPENED TO BELIMIC GIRL, KELLE, TOCARRA, THE PAGENT GIRL, JUST ALL THE GIRLS WHO REALLY MADE IT TO THE TOP FIVE? PLEASE SHED SOME LIGHT. wE WANT TO KNOW. THIS WEBSITE DOESNT DO THE SHOW JUSTICE. C'MON TYRA

When will Season 4 be aired??? It keeps skipping over some really good seasons....why??

hey tyra my name is kelsey and im 12 years of age and have been a model at limited too for 8 years i have always wanted to be on your antm show cause you are my idol and i look up to you so when im oldre where do i go to become a applicant for antm and i did not like when that girl wrote an tm on here ass that was just disturbing and i think miss janice needs to go to a funeral home she is very slutty and mean!!!!

where do you become a applicant for antm

YOU GUYS ROCK AND ALL OF YOU ARE TOLDLLY CUTE

Hello, Ms. Banks. Congratulations on the many blessings that you've been blessed with and I pray that all continues to be well with you.

At one time I used to look at you sideways because you're one of my husband's favorite models but I didn't know why he liked you until I viewed a few of your talk shows and ANTM episodes. HA! The very first ANTM episode that I viewed was when you "SNAPPED" on that young lady who tried to justify her negative behavior with her past experiences. Whew!!! You took me back to the early 80's as a little girl in private catholic school and my mother had to come down to the school to talk with the principal. LOL!!! Made me have a flash back. Ha ha ha!!!

Seriously, I can see and agree why he thinks that you're attractive. You have an inner beauty (values and morals) which not only has been obviously passed down to you from very important people in your life (like your own mother) but also it is what shines forth from within you. You didn't let fame and fortune change you but instead you used it to encourage positive change in others. I'd include myself in that bunch of students of change, too. You're never too old to learn something if you're willing. I appreciate the way you've encouraged these young ladies today to look deep within themselves to not only know who they are but also love who they are, too. They can't wait on the approval of others because others are waiting on them to approve of themselves. In other words, I'll break it down like this. "If you aren't confident in, love, and respect yourself then don't be surprised when the rest of the world agrees with your own assessment of you."

Ms. Tyra, I agree with my husband when he says that you're beautiful from the inside out. That's a compliment to you and those who raised you. No. I don't float my boat that way. I am confident in and love myself enough to be able to recognize and compliment another woman's God given beauty. It takes a beautiful woman from the inside to be able to acknowledge another. Break it down old school style. It takes one to know one. Stay encouraged, Ms. Tyra, and blessed.

TTFN! (Tah tah for now! - Tigger from Winnie the Pooh)

Mrs. Z ;-)

I think there should be an ANTM for men...women arent the only run way models needed.

hey trya i am a HUGE fan and i was wondering if I can get an aouto grafh and if can that would be awsome,and aslo Mr. Jay and Mrs. Jay

i think the girl who was over weighted, i dont know her name. but she's reallly sweet. and i felt bad when she couldn't find a braw her size and girls look at her like.. mean. i mean be nice! hope she wins! :D

I have a question. Does anyone know how to try out to be on the show?

Eva Diva my girl my obsolute fav I love her she so real and ... I just love her.I totally can relate to her when they had to do that sipder pose I can relate two s's Snakes & Spiders I dont deal with at all. So trust me Miss Eva I know how you feel honey sweety :)(thats a smile). I'm just 12 and really want to say Eva you are my insperation I'm speechless at ya attitude girl.

Monequic what was with her being sick i'm not saying she wasn't sick but why didn't she do her photo shoot.If Daneill can do it she can do it to becaues Daneill had an ivy in her and she went to the hosptil and she went to the photo shoot and rock it.But enogh of that my favorite winner was Witheny .Because she was a plus size molde and because she was a beuatiful girl.

Hey Tyra I need you to tell Ms.Jay Manuel that I think he is hot as hell.I wish I was a man because I would give him a shout.I saw a rerun this past weekend and he was dress in drag.I was turn on for real but I am straight .So it would never workout He has great skin.What do he use on his skin.It is flawless.Anyway I think that your show is great.And I love what you promote.But I think the team should of gave Toccara a little more time to blossom.Janice needs to stop getting so much plastic surgery.She is starting to look like a man.

tyra when I watch ANTM you guys only clap for the white girls when they win a challenge not the black.Besides Danielle cycle 6 winner and Eva cycle 3 winner no other "black" person win.I look foward to seeing more black girls coming out and doing their thing.

Hi Tyra I am a big fan of your show but i was watching the season with Brooke on it the other day, and i think it was really messed up that you all put her off on the day of her graduation. Besides who comes on top model before they graduate? At least thats what my mother thought. But what disturbed me was the words you said that were trying to comfort her. You said plenty of other girls would love to be at top model instead of their graduation. As uplifting as you are, i can't believe you would think modeling is more important then a diploma. Now that disturbs me.

Hey, I'm a big fan of the show, but I am only a teenager and I love all of the modeling stuff. A lot of people have told me that I'm beautiful and my family thinks that if I could be on this show I would do great. I would like there to be a show for teen's who are wanting to do some modeling.
I think that if there were shows for younger women, or even a male modeling one, that the show would become more popular than it already is.
I know a lot of teen girls who would be really interested in doing this, and with the new season twelve starting, I personly think that it is great timeing to begin filming a new season thirteen.
Thanks.
Megan.

When I watch Americas Next Top Model I just cant stop watching it. I just love it. Also Tyra Banks does great in the show. In season 7 I thought that Melrose was going to win because she is a so confident and she takes great pictures, but CariDee English won anyways I love CariDee thats great that she won.

I aree with you because I love modeling stuff and I like watching how people dress like and how they look like. I am just a big fan.

I Love watching this show. Tyra even though sometimes you don't always follow what you say, I still think that you give good advice. I liked London, but the second she started gaining weight you guys sent her home, I think you could have given her time or help, because she was one of the prettiest girls. But other than that keep up the good work. I like the girls that are left, I think Fo is fab. And I also like Amanit. I know I spelled that wrong.

Hi this message is for Trya Banks, I'm a concerned voter on your Top Model Maddness for the CW promo. Their is two contestants left, Maggie and Lashawn, also there is a message on Maggie's comment board, that was left by you for Maggie voter#1. I as a lot of concerned voters would hope that if you are voting for one that you would vote for both contestants. I'm really feeling kind of stupid now, because it's probably not you, you wouldn't have voted just for one! Thanks Trya, Because I love all what you do!! Wish you all the success in the world.

I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD MAKE A TEEN AMERICANS NEXT TOP MODEL...AND IF YOU DO PLEASE COME DO XCASTING IN PHILADELPHIA....

Hey Tyra! I love your show. By watching your show (ANTM) my dream of becoming a model is developing quickly. Hopefully you'll hear from me in the future in an audition tape. Thanks for inspiring me Tyra.

If season four is with NIC i no EXACTLY why, it's because they know nic was ment to win that season and she didn't the other girl that won don't get me wrongwas very pretty BUTshe didn't any of the things they said and was just playing around with everything even with the Cover girl shot and that was a bad call when she won anyway it didn't add up to any one and i don't think tyra want that to be on the air a lot. I KNOW IT was wrong but i still love TYRA.

Hey tyra! I think that u should do a ANTM with all mothers (who still look good)! And raise the age limit. Maybe a "couger like" lady. some of us mothers still look damn good (short and tall)! Thanks tyra much love:)
