When i got my braces out the guy who was working on me shaved down my corner pointy teeth down without even asking me, and i was just shocked and couldn't say anything.
I hate when Tyra gives contestants ugly haircuts and sends them home right afterwards because they’re not “owning their new makeovers”....OF COURSE they’re not feeling very confident in their photos after you jacked up their hair🙄.. That’s Just evil lol...
That drove me nuts especially when someone looked older (like Renee cycle 8, or Brenda cycle 14) and then gave them a soccer mom do’ and complain they didn’t push through. What did you think was going to happen?! They don’t look so much like a model as someone-who-wants-to-speak-to-the-manager.
Vanii Bonii Exactly! If you're going to give someone a makeover, at least cater it to their personality and not because you want to play pretend hairdresser!
Vanii Bonii yeah or when tyra got cammile from s2 braids out because it was not fashionable, Then in The fifth Season she gives another girl braids and she gets eliminated
tyra was wearing wigs and extensions all her career: Why not do the same for those contestants when experimenting with their looks for photo shoots? Why would you want to ruin someone's looks just for a make over and than shame them for feeling upset? And why isn't Tyra wearing those horse styles or mushroom styles hair herself?
Because Tyra was a commercial model and they need more approachable and safe looks. High Fashion models,have interesting and cool haircuts. The thing with wigs on photoshoots is that they can look cheap,like part of a costume. They're selling fashion,not fantasy.
Tyra is worthless. Permanently widening a person's gap by shaving off their teeth is so so so so wrong. That will lead to tooth decay, darkening, pain for the rest of her life. WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? I would sue the company.
They just don't care what they do to the girls. They want to make money with advertisements. The girls are just flesh. If the show was about changing cars the producers would have a similar emotional sense of responsibility.
They are MODELS, they freely signed up for it and were compensated! Are you dumb? What model gets to go in and pick her hair, her makeup, her location, her partner, whatever the designer, photographer or editor wants it’s their choice. Otherwise don’t be a model!!!!
soccer 11 it seems like many models and actors are required to make some permanent changes , placing veneers, or something, alter their noses, enhance their lips etc. That's just showbiz, and it's upsetting that they're paid millions for ruining young's life and promoting unauthentic and unrealistic beauty.
Totally. In season 6, Dani (winner) had a gap and they made her get it closed (somewhat). Now they want you to have a gap lol. I understand how fashion changes. No way I can be a model. I paid $7,000 for my braces. I ain't going back lol.
Consent is no defense for harming someone’s dental health. Shaving off teeth like that can cause hypersensitivity or even pain and increased risk of tooth decay
I stopped watching ANTM after cycle 9 and it's funny how she opened that girl gap more where in cycle 6 she told Danielle you cant be a cover girl with a gap in your mouth
That's because Cover Girl is a commercial brand when at the time was only hiring actresses and or ordinary models... cycle 15 was geared for high fashion and vogue where a gap is favored... all Tyra was doing was trying to mold the contestants to the prizes and winning agency
TEAM She said she cldt be “A cover girl”, not alluding to the makeup company “Covergirl” but she made it seem as though she couldn’t book magazine gigs with a gap.
As far as I can remember (currently rewatching all the cycles on Hulu up to 22), outside of whitening there were only four contestants who had dental makeovers shown on the show. Norelle (Cycle 3): Braces Removed Dani (Cycle 6 winner-Danielle): Tooth gap closed (enough to look proportionate) Joanie (Cycle 6 runner-up): Tooth extraction and veneers Chelsey (Cycle 15 runner up): Tooth gap widened.
@@separaidtion They knew they would be receiving a change, but most were not prepared to be told "You need to have your gapped crown". Dani gave an insightful interview about what happened to her. It was absolutely disgusting.
@@yespls4184 They did it to make good tv. We all loved makeover days to see the good ones and bad ones. A former contestant Jeana did a youtube video explaining her experiences. She was the one with alopecia and they promised her a wig but made her wear a shaved head even though the winner got a Pantene contract. So she knew at that point she was never going to win but be strung along.
Widening the teeth is beyond hypocritical. All throughout season 6, Tyra lambasted Danielle and Joanie for their gap and snaggle tooth, respectively. She even had them go to the dentist to have them corrected. But then she sends a girl to MAKE a tooth gap? What the living hell?????
I was thinking about that, not to mention that Danielle and Joanie were some of my favorite contestants and glad they made it to the top 2 and Danielle won
Although i agree it's ridiculous to widen someone's gap for a stupid reality tv show, I don't see it as hypocritical to do both widening and closing gaps. If they're going to do one style they might as well do the other. Different people suit different things.
I do not like the attitude the stylist gave the first girl all because she didn't want to get her hair cut even shorter. Being a model should be about displaying your unique beauty not forcing other's to conform to what you think is beautiful and then kicking them out because they don't want to conform to your stupid beauty rules.
true story bro, and it takes ages to grow them back the way they were before. I cut my hair off too and growing it back since a year now it takes so long and it costs a lot of money to cut it regularly so it doesn't look like shit inbetween lenghts.
usually, designers hire models that are already close to the Picture they want to create. so cutting her hair off radically like that has nothing to do with a designer wanting his model to look a certain way, it's just hair butchering. who says her look wouldn't have gotten some interest by good designers already who want a natural look or a big nice hair style?
I have never watched ANTM, but all of these makeovers were hideous. Changing one's hair is bad enough, but to allow a dentist to grind off one's teeth - WTH??? I would have never agreed to that, no matter how badly I wanted to win. I'm surprised she didn't sue.
@@GothToRide Dani gave an interview anout it. They didn't sign a contract, but were basically told that they would get kicked off the show if they didnt comply.
The stylists on this show are so awful. The tooth gap was horrific. They really abuse the girls on this show. I don't watch it anymore becasue I could not bear how they used and mistreated the girls. It seems to be the norm in the fashion industry to abuse models. In the fine arts world, such abuse would never be tolerated by respected artists or art institutions. They are the opposite, they do everything in their power to show respect to models.
You should check out some of the shows performing make overs on regular people. The top model crew is polite & nurturing by comparison. And at least the models are getting (mostly) useful feedback & exposure for their careers. I don't watch alot of these shows regularly, but what I have seen is like "if you wear this, change your hair, you look more _____ & we believe that to be more marketable because _____" vs "guuuurrrl! No wonder you unemployed & no one wants to f*ck you! Do you get high & dress in the dark? Why can't you see that you look like sh*t?"
@@donnanoe6736 I watched one once thinking it would be all sweet - a 50-something mom (widow?) & her daughters we all "Our mom is the best! We wanna help her update her look & feel pretty!" And this lady was just super sweet. These a'holes had her crying for most of the episode. Ok, her long, bleach blond poofy Texas hair needed some help, but they chopped it WAY to short & dyed it red & it wasn't even particularly flattering. She was devastated! Then they spend the rest of the show either ignoring her trauma or dismissing it. "This what we deal with!" Jerks. I was glad to see at the end of the show she recolored it & got extensions on her own & looked happy again. (I bet a nice honey blonde & a few inches shorter would've been adorable on her, btw - but it still looked so much better than what they did.) Anywhoo, it's the only time I've written into a reality show to tell them off. You can be honest without humiliating someone on national television...
Everything all looks so cheap, so tacky. And while weave can be removed and hair can grow out, ain't nobody permanently altering my TEETH! Especially considering this show, through 465,938,383 seasons, has launched ZERO CAREERS.
Jenna Leigh's Beauty Slam ANTM has launched plenty of careers to varying levels of success. Just very few “top models.” Leila Goldkuhl from cycle 19 is one of the top ranked high fashion models in the world. Dani Evans and Fatima Siad have also been very successful. The list could go on. I’m not condoning these awful makeovers by any means though. If you want to watch a Top Model series that isn’t absolutely ridiculous, does good makeovers, and churns out successful models, check out the Australian cycles.
Okay, hair is just hair but the tooth gap, that's just beyond ridiculous. Wtf is wrong with them to do that, teeth ain't grow back. Also shei's hair was pretty cool, I really liked it but most of the makeovers are just stupid and unnecessary.
Teeth should be off limits...Tyra..would have never let some one mess with her teeth. They ruined that chicks teeth..and that also made them weaker...forever. Never...let someone mess with your teeth...unless it's between you and your personal dentist.
+Sugar Plum Uh you do know that shaving the gap, means shaving the enamel protecting the root. Right? The biggest thing protecting the root. Thinner enamel, less protection. And enamel doesn't grow back. And teeth aren't that big so a millimeter shaved off is a lot of protection gone.
Actually it was only like a difference of about four/five years between Dani's tooth gap fix of Cycle 6 verses Chelsey's tooth gap widen of Cycle 15. By the time Cycle 6 rolled around, ANTM was pushing out two cycles a year. But yes, that was probably the biggest part of the whole tooth controversy.
To give red, white and blue that one girl to represent the USA flag on an American show is one thing. However, it comes across as a stupid move if you're doing it for a competition between British and USA contestants. Did no-one on the USA team look at the British flag???? BOTH countries proudly use the colours red, white and blue! I remember watching it with my friends, we were really amused and mildly confused how the production team didn't pick up on it.
True, but this competition was between the USA and UK, to not only use something that represents both to show your country pride but make a fuss about it just makes the girl and her team look a little stupid. Someone on the production staff should have realised and maybe steered the girl to clothing, hair decoration or make-up of stars and stripes if they wanted flag representation.
For some people growing hair back is possible but for some black women it literally takes years and years to grow back a short amount and it doesn’t always come back the same. So, yes, it is a big deal.
I’ve done half and half hair twice. I don’t get what’s wrong with it? She actually looks really good with the hair. The eyebrows may have been better for just a picture and not permanent but she still looked great with those too.
That dentist should've been struck off, I can't believe a qualified, professional dentist actually agreed to creating a bigger gap in her front teeth, I'm also confused as she sent that other girl a few years ago to get her gap closed because they said it was ruining the way she spoke! At least with hair, eyebrows etc they grow back.
The lace front beard was simply ridiculous! Like he couldn't grow out his own facial hair for the competition? Why even pick certain people to be in the competition if you're going to ruin their appearance entirely.
I never watched the show and I'm shocked. What kind of dentist would even agree to that tooth gap thing?! It's a horrible message as well to even propose such a permanent procedure just b/c you think it would look cool. It's basically plastic surgery for no reason at all. Don't know what the problem with the bob was though. I think the model looked really good with it.
That is kinda the point though. I don't think a brand would make you look as bad as some of them but as a model they have to be prepared to cut their hair however they're told. Just as a actor has to gain or lose weight depending on the role.
Call me Your Dai5y yeah but this is a competition. It's not solid work yet. This show has a very condescending way of doing things especially when the makeovers come up. They're uglying down half these girls and sending them out the door cuz they knew who they wanted in the first place. It is too controlling and extreme especially for a tv reality show. Having them people talk and order them around like that then catch them being "difficult" on camera. What a RIP off
Models aren't asked to cut their hair randomly. They may put weaves in or wear wigs but the stuff Tyra comes up with is absurd and unnecessary. I don't think it's about modeling but a test to see how far they're willing to go.
I was going to say the same thing; I liked Shei's hair, but dying the one eyebrow was an awful idea. Who thought of that and which beautician actually went through with it?!
Yeah if it was a pure white that would be fantastic. The look is super different and defiantly makes her stand out. It pushes the boundaries in the right way.
I actually really liked Shei's hair (the eyebrows were to far though). Also how could you forget the mullet Ava got in Cycle 22 or when they gave Kari ice blonde hair and made her look like an alien
Lauren Muncie Kari was tragic!!! She was so stunning with her red curls and those eyes and then they turned her into an unnecessary stripper named “ice princess”.
I dont think they're being dramatic when they cry as their hair gets chopped off. Imagine you grow your hair out for years and then someone hacks it off and makes you look like a troll. Lol
Right! Then you have Mr. Jay talking about how he "doesn't have time for it" and "If you want to be a model you HAVE to do this". You go through all that to not even make it past the next elimination!
Buttuhcup My young daughter had phenomenal, long blonde hair. Then, she wanted it cut to within an inch of its life. All the girls in the salon were too afraid to cut it so the amazing male salon owner did it. 1O years later and again long...all the hairdressers in town would watch her pass by hoping one day, they'd get the chance to work on it. One got to. Brilliant hair designer. Amazing style, transformation. Just saying.
Kristi Stevens I can see them trying to give people permanent freckles and eye color contacts in the near future. Oooo what if they start giving people surgeries or bleach skin lol. Talk about reaching
HAHAHA!!! So agree about the beard. I would be so embarrassed that the world saw me with stick-on fake hair on my face, and that I actually liked it!! I guess being on TV makes a person do and say strange things...
To be honest, the lass who had her teeth widened wanted to do it so I'm not THAT fussed about it. The question is, would she have ben eliminated if she didn't? Now, that's where the line would be crossed in my opinion. The one I'm pissed about is how Dani in season 6 had her gap made smaller even though she said she didn't want to do it!
I agree. Watching it back now I'm realising it was a form of abuse. These contestants were often poor, uneducated, naive and vulnerable and they trusted Tyra. She was like a cruel jealous stepmother towards them, giving the worst makeovers to the prettiest of them.
Wait a minute. They actually widened that one girl's gap, but wasn't it during Cycle 6 that Tyra was shaming eventual winner Dani Evans for not closing her gap? That's pathetic hypocrisy at its finest.
PrincessofPower84 Wasn't there also a girl.. not sure if it was Carrie or not.. But they did some kind of full extraction on ALL of her teeth.. and gave her.. idk if they were implants or not? (which we now know takes about 6 months JUST for the implant to take to the jaw bone.. so in total.. we're talking a full year to do it correctly! I don't think they were 'shaved' down and redone.. but still.. THAT takes alot of time.)...But they made the poor girl get it done without a break .. think she was awake and it took 18 HOURS to get it done! THEN.. made her go to that day's shoot, and they were bitching that "she wasn't talking right" throughout the season. Uugh!!!! That IS SUCH MEDICAL MALPRACTICE.. and her teeth weren't THAT BAD! They totally could've done something different! I'm sure they also failed to tell her that because there's no real nerves from real teeth anymore, that her jawbone WILL SHRINK overtime. I often wonder what happened to her teeth/implants. AND I'M NOT SURE, BUT I 'THINK' SHE MAY HAVE WON.. AGAIN, NOT SURE.. DOES ANYONE REMEMBER THIS GIRL, OR HER NAME... OR THE PROCEDURE?? I ONLY WATCHED THE FIRST 6-10 SEASONS.. (SEASON 1.. MAYBE TO SEASON 10).. SO IT WOULDVE BEEN YEARS 'N YEARS AGO. LEMME KNOW IF ANYONE REMEMBERS THIS SEASON.. OR THE GIRL! 😥😟
.....AS IF Jay Manuel has any room to be critiquing other people's styles. He looks like he bleaches his hair out of a box every 6 weeks.....and is STILL trying to get away with this look, 15 years later!!
Sarah_Jolene Me, too. I cannot understand why they would ask someone to do that. Also, I feel they could use weave or wigs rather than demanding the girls cut their hair because if I didn't win I'd be really ticked if I submitted to their demands.
I feel like Tyra did not protect the girl it almost seemed like she was playing the part of mean girl, Tyra definitely crossed the line. Making the girls tuff for the business is one thing but humiliating and butchering them like that for ratings is very sad.... clearly Miss Banks has issues.
agree later seasons it seemed to become more about getting a reaction from the contestants than making them more marketable for their profession. But 1 of the criticisms of the show is that they've not exactly helped make/discover any superstar models like a Gisele Bundchen or Adriana Lima. The only 1 that I've ever seen with an actual 'model' job post-show is Danielle and that's on NY& Company's website as a catalog model.
Model agencies should make the most of a girl's assets, such as nice white teeth or beautiful long, thick hair. In reality, I doubt very much if an agency would ruin a model's natural look in these kinds of ways. This show is an example of Narcissistic media people thinking that they rule the world. It is not OK to ask a reality show's contestants to radically change their look, just because of some media mogul's whim. And it should be illegal to ask someone to have their teeth permanently altered. If you want to be on a reality show, people, read the small print, and stand up for your rights! Because the TV show hosts do not care about anything but ratings.
Cassandra's would have looked good if it was actually a Mia Farrow cut but it was a bad cut (too long on top) and dye job (blonde too brassy). She looked more like Billy Idol than Mia Farrow. A lot of the makeovers suck because they're for dramatic impact or based on what was popular (like when they bleached everyone's eyebrows just because Lara Stone had them) rather than what will suit the girls or get them work. A lot of agencies want models to be a blank canvas and therefore have as close to their natural hair as possible, unless you're a Linda Evangelista or an Agyness Deyn.
The reference was wrong but the cut wasn't bad. Cassandra hair cut would have actually benefited her in the industry. It was very edgy almost like Beri Smither and Emma Sjoberg. It also came at a time when androgyny was big in the industry.
I must be the only person on the planet who thought Saleisha’s bob looked decent. Not the best makeover, but fine. Also I never blamed Molly for being pissed; it looked painful and ridiculous.
Phil's makeover turned out to be his signature look. He's still a working model now and he kept his hair like that. The weave might be terrible but at least they gave him that idea.
Tyra asking Chelsey to expand her gap was really interesting after she told Danielle in a previous cycle that she would have to go home if she didn’t get hers closed.
I think Tyra resents these contestants youth and beauty. Instead of being stronger with age she's gotten straight petty. You can't tell me she wasn't mocking the horse hair girl, and jacking up a person's FRONT two teeth? That's beyond wrong. That girl should get free dental from Tyra for putting her smile at permanent risk.
I thought she looked stunning when it was straight (not when it got too curly, then it looked like a poodle). If she got over the “masculine” thing, she probably would’ve gone far. I wish I could rock hair like that.
Okay yes, hair can be dyed, cut etc and be dyed/grown/weaved/wiged back but wtf teeth cannot be grown back, capped yes but omg that's a no no Tyra!! That was going waaay too far, yes absolutely!😞
Tyra Banks is the equivalent to a mean little six-year-old in a room with a bunch of Barbies and scissors. She's just taking away from people because she can and she feels like it. she's a horrible person.
The cut and dye jobs typically turn out ok, but whenever there's a weave involved...I swear Tyra, the production company, whoever, can't find a halfway decent weaveologist to save their life. Shame. A rando Craigslist kitchen beautician could do a better job.
absolutely. The teeth gap thing - Cycle 7 winner Danielle Evans - my fave!!!! Was mercilessly heckled by Tyra about the gap in her front teeth. Tyra hounded Danielle about closing it, but Danielle stuck to her guns, and only allowed a small patch up. Then way later on Tyra intentionally WIDENS a gap in that poor girl's mouth? Hypocrisy thy name is Tyra
I know, right? I mean, I understand the young lady had to agree to the procedure, but for God's sake, someone like Tyra thinking it is a good idea? Appalling
Shei's makeover was very high fashion and it was done very well, also Saleisha's makeover was not bad, I think people just love to judge her based on that stupid controversy
Casi S People say that Saleisha shouldn't have won because she had too much modeling experience and because she "knew Tyra". Most of the situations they brought up about this was Saleisha acting in a commercial and in the show Ugly Betty as pretty much an extra. Yea Saleisha had experience but they never tried to hide that on the show
I remember Brittany having issues with the weave and it ended up being a health hazard for her and they took it out after a while but Tyra wasn’t happy about the weave being taken out
Tyra and ALL of the people who worked on America's Next Top Model, were horrible and loved manipulating and controlling these models. They also often came across as jealous of most of these beautiful young models, Good on the ones who had the guts to leave with their integrity. Something that Tyra and the judges (who could NEVER make it as models or at least have a long career in modelling, NEVER had. Tyra, is also VERY JEALOUS of women with naturally long hair, in particular women of colour with long hair; note she always gets the models to cut their hair very short or damages it with chemical or weaves.And that beautiful girl who she made file her teeth. ANYWAY JEALOUSY, is obviously was making Tyra crazy, when she has those so called CRAZY ideas in her "dream" to change their hair/teeth (in truth, hers finding ways to "disfigure" them), like the model who's beautiful hair she cut off, then got her to leave the very same day, nasty individuals!
the tooth gap thing blows my mind to think tyra would do that. especially since she told danielle from cycle 6 “you can’t have a covergirl campaign with a tooth gap” and made her get it closed by a dentist.
