America’s Next Top Catty Bitch

Last night’s America’s Next Top Model was all about runway strutting, which gave us plenty of spills and awkward moments to laugh at (the ridiculous contestants obviously have never seen models walk before), and a pretty inventive photoshoot.

But did anyone else get the feeling that the entire show and all of its challenges were contrived just for the moment when Tyra reminds us that Naomi Campbell fell on her ass during a Vivienne Westwood runway show (which happened in 1993)? Tyra seemed so smug holding up the picture of Naomi (who was not mentioned by name), and we know Tyra and Naomi are long-time rivals. Also, Tyra didn’t use Naomi’s graceful smile to illustrate her lesson about recovering from a fall with dignity - further demonstrating her backhanded intentions.

Naomi opened and closed several high-profile runway shows at NYC fashion week last month. Tyra wasn’t even in the audience, and her Top Modelettes were seen in the tents, but definitely not on the runway.

Just because you have a second-rate reality TV show on UPN doesn’t mean you should use it to take jabs at someone who clearly makes you insecure. I’m not one for defending people who attack their assistants, but last night proved Tyra isn’t above acting like a catty bitch either.
