Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model review – Tyra Banks comes across terribly in this exposé

This three-part documentary has remarkable access to people involved with this 00s TV hit. It’s an awful tale of body-shaming, humiliation and toxic treatment

If you’re a millennial woman, America’s Next Top Model may have been your first experience of appointment TV. The show, which ran for 10 years from 2003, was an early reality juggernaut and made a household name of the supermodel Tyra Banks, its creator and host. At its peak, Top Model drew more than 100 million viewers globally, and left a niche but indelible impact on culture. “Smize”, meaning to “smile with your eyes”, is in the Collins dictionary, while Banks’ infamous tirade (“We were all rooting for you!”) at an unruly model still circulates as a meme.

The new Netflix doc “Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model” covers the behind the scenes chaos, and the complicated legacy of the iconic reality series – without Tyra Banks’ input.

“There was no creative control. Tyra is going to see the [documentary] exactly like all the 270 million households [that subscribe to Netflix],” doc director Daniel Sivan told Page Six. 

Banks, 52, appears onscreen in interviews, speaking out for the first time since “Top Model” ended in 2018.

Co-director Mor Loushy told Page Six that it “took time” to get Banks onboard, estimating that she was in talks with the production for “several months” before agreeing to participate.

The dynamic landscape of current events often brings forth significant discussions. Monitoring these developments provides crucial insights.
