Tyra has paid her dues and is where she is because of persistance and love of her trade. People need to learn to coexist with one another.

“It does appear that had the process for waiting in line at the audition been better organized, all of this could have been avoided.”

But, what would be the fun in that.

“The panic left the midtown street outside the hotel littered with the would-be models’ shoes and clothing.”

Wow, dreams really do come true.

I’ve wanted to read this sentence since I was 12 years old.

Well they could have solved the problem by just having someone there to look at say the girl in the video and say “go home,” and cut that line down dramatically. I’m sure there were plenty just like her that should have been told “not interested.”

I mean seriously, I bet the vast majority waiting in that line were no where near model caliber. Having a talent scout outside making sure the unworthy were escorted out would have saved the show a lot of time with interviews, etc.

The ANTM hopeful in the first video says the cops were standing around staring. Really? Hundreds of beautiful women lined up for blocks. What could possibly distract them?

Thanks for posting the video! This is unbelievable.

WOW. These are America’s Next Top Model wanna-bes?

it’s not great footage, but you can see a.) the total chaos it was and b)the cops putting the beatdown on at ~2:00 minute mark

No video on YouTube? I can’t imagine that in a group of people wanting to be models that no one filmed themselves or others.

This is a by-product of reality television, which glorifies unsavoury and violent behaviour.

I’m sure the producers will include every ugly moment of this mob rioting in a highly promoted episode for the next season of ‘America’s Next Top Model’, and it will probably set some sort of ratings record.

Which will only lead to more ‘riots’ in the future, much the same way that stage brawls became such a fixture on shows like Springer and Maury.
