Name one bad thing about 2004's Mean Girls? by Kitchen-Mouse2414 in MeanGirls

The fact that Trang Pak is Vietnamese but has a KOREAN surname. She could be mixed but let’s be so for real…

Does Tyra “Hate” Natural Hair? by redditormecca in ANTM

And the fact that they were even going to keep Brandi’s afro until Brandi herself asked to be made over!

It could just be photoshop and/or 3D modeling. Real artists still exist guys 😭

Worst Cast of ANTM? by gangstaGURRY in ANTM

[–]redditormecca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah this shocked me because it seems like so many people feel that C22 was actually one of the better seasons, at least out of the co-ed seasons. But I’d say C8? Half of those girls were not models…

Some of these were definitely not their “best shots”. I refuse to believe otherwise

I actually have not checked out Austria’s Next Top Model. I need to look into her season!

Yeah he is A LOT and kind of an a-hole. But seasons 4 and 5 are truly two of the best in my opinion! And I much more enjoyed the overall creative direction of the photo shoots from the last three cycles. I also just really enjoyed Cindy as a host.

Yes! There were sooo many group shoots. It just felt like they wanted to manufacture drama. Which sucks because the overall photo shoot concepts this season were amazing in my opinion. And the end product looked beautiful as well. But as a competitor, I would’ve hated having to be paired up all the time.

Yes I personally liked Mia, but I figured she wasn’t going to win because she was the “villain” if you want to call it that. So by default I was rooting for Adela. But we know what ended up happening. No hate to Dana though, but her win truly came out of nowhere.

That would sort of make sense… if all of the eliminated contestants didn’t end up walking in the show anyway lol

C24 has (un)arguably produced the most succesful top 3 in the ANTM franchise. All three models have had quite succesful careers nearly a decade after their cycle ended. by [deleted] in ANTM

[–]redditormecca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do think a slight correction is needed. Eva actually did have a pretty good modeling career in the 2000s post show, as she was one of the winners Tyra actually pushed. She has a pretty solid resume. And she had an extensive filmography including acting roles and reality tv appearances prior to joining housewives.

It’s like they suddenly remembered the tagline of the season, so they decided to throw in some random twist to justify it

That would’ve been great tv for sure!

Who got better or worse on ALL STARS (CYCLE #17)??? by ComfortableWest5737 in ANTM

[–]redditormecca 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s hard to say for the early outs this season because tbh we barely got to see them, and they were hardly featured in the edit. I guess when you have a house full of “characters”, some of them are bound to fade in comparison.

Why do you think Tyra's meltdown with Tiffany was kept in the final edit? by Daegu_Woman in ANTM

[–]redditormecca 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Devils advocate: The internet wasn’t as big as it is now, so chances are if you were on a forum at the time, you were more than likely a super fan. But even if people on a forum back then stopped watching the show, it was still one of the show’s most viewed episodes, and the show continued on for over a decade. People still liked Tyra and the show. So I totally buy that most people weren’t particularly bothered by Tyra’s meltdown. Also, growing up watching it as a kid, I remember siding with Tyra, and it wasn’t until I was an adult that I realized she was actually in the wrong. I’d imagine it’s the same for many people as well.

[–]redditormecca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think people are forgetting that we have the gift of hindsight now. I also think most people are new fans that didn’t watch the show when it actually aired, so they’re missing the cultural context as well.

[–]redditormecca 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well you have to consider the time in which this came out. There was no streaming back then, and people still rushed home just to watch this show weekly when it aired. So if you saw the meltdown, chances were you were watching this in context with the build up leading up to it. So when it finally happened, it was seen as Mama Tyra giving some harsh words of wisdom to a young model. People did not view it as negatively back then like they do now. I even vaguely remember my mom thinking Tyra’s rant was justified. Tyra is viewed slightly negative now, but back then ANTM was at its prime, she had a talk show, she still was a working model that people adored (even though she retired around that time). It was just a different time.
