People.com Entertainment TV Tyra Banks' 9 Most Tyra Banks-ian Moments on 'America's Next Top Model' From dressing down contestants to getting smooched by fellow judges, the ANTM host has given fans plenty of unforgettable moments By Lena Finkel Published on August 4, 2015 04:55 PM Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: Don Arnold/WireImage With 22 cycles of America’s Next Top Model under her designer belt, Tyra Banks has definitely had her fair share of glorious moments, from the first smize to last year’s final Ty-overs (not to mention how she unflinchingly reinvents the English language in new ways each cycle). Below, our picks for the most epically, well, Tyra moments in ANTM history. 9. When Tyra shut down Denzel’s homophobia in cycle 21.After bad boy Denzel Wells proclaimed he would be embarrassed to lose the competition to a “dude who wears heels” (i.e. competitor Will Jardell), Tyra quickly took him down, making it clear that that kind of ignorance would not fly in the fashion world – or on ANTM. 8. That time in cycle 12 when Tyra told Celia to sit back down after the model dared stand up to Ms. Banks.When Tyra decided to keep homesick Tahlia Brookins in the competition, Celia Ammerman couldn’t help but express her strong disagreement. But Tyra was having none of it and swiftly told Celia to quiet down. Nobody talks to Ty Ty Baby like that! 7. When Tyra dressed up as a kangaroo to announce a trip to Sydney.In true ANTM fashion, Tyra decided to go all-out when telling the models the cycle 8 destination location. The debate was then and there settled: Tyra has no shame. 6. That time Tyra found herself on the receiving end of a big, wet smooch from Janice Dickinson.Oh, Janice! After Miss J Alexander, you were definitely our favorite token wacky judge. Though self-appointed “world’s first supermodel” has fallen out of Tyra’s favor, her make-out session with the Bankable empresario will forever be burned on our retinas not least of which for the look of shock on Tyra’s face as Janice leaned lunged at her. 5. The time that Tyra taught the girls to model as if they had menstrual cramps.Tyra’s modelling lessons are always a cycle highlight, but this one was especially memorable. Remember ladies: Modeling is pain! 4. Any time Tyra has been featured more than the contestants in the intro (translation: basically every season).Tyra dancing up a storm? Check. Ty directing on set? Check. Tyra looking smoking hot as she does it all? Check and check! 3. When Tyra demonstrated how to act "like a damn fool" in panel during cycle 19.What would a panel be without an impromptu lesson? It’s where Tyra first taught us to smize, to stop being a no-neck monster and, most importantly, how to … well … just watch. 2. In cycle 7, Tyra gave us all a lesson in being Beyoncé.Today’s sermon from Rev Banks: If Beyoncé doesn’t have dead eyes on stage, neither should you. Amen. 1. When Tyra dished out the toughest love of all to Tiffany: "I was rooting for you. We were all rooting for you!"Before cycle 4, we had never heard Tyra scream like she did when Tiffany Richardson disappointed her at panel (and, frankly, we pray we never have to again). Tyra’s devotion to her models runs deep, and if it takes a rafter-shaking lecture to get them to listen to her pearls of wisdom, so be it. America’s Next Top Model cycle 22 concludes Friday at 9 p.m. ET on The CW.
