America's Next Top Model

Miss J Alexander’s health battle has been devastating to watch -- especially after opening up in the new "America’s Next Top Model" doc -- and now he needs public support to help cover the crushing cost of recovery.

Miss J’s close friend and talent manager, Steven Grossman, has launched a GoFundMe to help pay for ongoing treatment, specialized care, rehab services, and daily living support -- all stemming from the debilitating stroke Miss J suffered back in 2022.

Fans got a glimpse of Miss J's struggle in "Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model" ... but the GoFundMe reveals just how serious it was -- Miss J spent five months in a coma and woke up unable to walk or speak.

Tyra Banks still hasn't come to see Miss J Alexander after his stroke, even after the 'Reality Check' blowback ... and Miss J is opening up about how much the neglect has hurt him.

During an interview with Sherri Shepherd, Miss J revealed Angela Bassett, Alfre Woodard, George Lopez, and his former 'ANTM' cohosts Jay Manuel and Nigel Barker all went out of their way to visit him after his traumatic medical event ... but the woman he taught how to walk the runway? M.I.A.

To be fair, Miss J says Tyra "reached out" when "it first happened," but the fact she couldn't go the extra mile to see him in person made him feel "a certain kinda way."

Eva Marcille is making it crystal clear -- she had no clue about the dark side of "America’s Next Top Model" now blowing up in Netflix’s scandal-soaked doc.

The Cycle 3 winner told "CBS Mornings" Thursday she was gobsmacked watching "Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model" ... saying it felt bizarre for her to be part of a club, and not know what’s actually going on in the club.

Eva admitted she could relate to some of the pressure contestants faced ... but said nothing in her own experience came close to the disturbing claims now coming to light, which firmly put show host Tyra Banks in the hot seat.

If you're looking for an apology from Tyra Banks for "America's Next Top Model's" controversial practices, you'll be waiting a long time ... and Adrianne Curry-Rhode loves that about her.

Adrianne, who won the first cycle of the '00s reality competition, shared a video Monday saying that Tyra "will not bend the knee and I respect that."

The way Adrianne sees it ... Tyra genuinely is not sorry, so why should she apologize?

"America's Next Top Model" creator and host Tyra Banks is finally adding some context to why the show documented Shandi Sullivan's "drunk shower sex" ... which the Season 2 contestant says was sexual assault.

To catch you up ... Shandi opened up about her experience on the reality show's second season -- AKA Cycle 2 -- for the new Netflix docuseries, "Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model."

Fans will remember one of the show's storylines seemed to suggest Shandi had cheated on her boyfriend during a wild night of drinking ... but Shandi says the sexual encounter occurred without her consent.

Former "America's Next Top Model" star Lisa D'Amato ain't smizing no more ... she's using some very choice words to describe Tyra Banks while accusing her of trying to one-up her with a new Netflix doc tied to the infamous modelling series.

Lisa was on "TMZ Live" Tuesday ... labeling Tyra a "slimy little snake" and claiming that even though she isn’t officially listed as producer on "Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model," she’s all over it BTS to soften accusations of mistreatment while dodging accountability.

It gets messier... Lisa claims Tyra caught wind of her own 'ANTM' exposé set to air on E! in March -- and rushed to lock down Netflix so she could get her version out first on Feb 16th.

"These boots were made for walkin' ... and fashion model Irina Shayk is about to "walk all over you!"

Check it out -- Irina, 39, effortlessly blasted a handful of sexy shots to social media, wearing nothing but a red-hot bikini and black boots!

Leanin' back in her chair, here's a shot of Shayk shakin' things up by doing absolutely .... nothing!!

Heidi Klum's not telling any of her potential top models to get a room ... 'cause she's cool with them rolling around in a bed outside -- for a photo shoot, that is!

The supermodel was rolling around Hollywood Thursday in a flatbed truck along with a full crew ... and, they all looked on while a photographer snapped pics of two half-naked models rolling around together on the mattress.

Watch the clip ... Heidi chats with the person next to her as the two subjects hit different poses in just their underwear -- flexing every muscle they've got for the cameras.

Camille Kostek is welcoming Brianna "Chickenfry" LaPaglia to the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit fam with open arms ... and she tells TMZ Sports she already has an eye on which social media superstar should be next!!

We spoke with the cover model at the Sports Illustrated party during Super Bowl week in New Orleans ... a few weeks after LaPaglia appeared on the January 2025 digital cover for the publication.

Safe to say Kostek's a big fan of the move ... 'cause she only had great things to say.

Kanye West made a music video shoot more like a porn set ... according to model Jenn An, who claims he made her gag and choked her until she blacked out.

Jenn, who appeared in cycle 13 of "America's Next Top Model," filed a federal lawsuit against West, alleging the 2010 shoot for his and La Roux's "In For the Kill" music video took a horrible turn after he picked her out of a lineup of women.

He allegedly said, "Give me the Asian girl" ... and then started filming a scene at NYC's Chelsea Hotel which she found humiliating and dangerous.

Toccara Jones wants to work with the Drake fan who went viral after throwing her huge bra on stage -- she's offering Miss 36G a modeling job with her lingerie line.

We got the ex-"America's Next Top Model" contestant Thursday at LAX, and she told us why 21-year-old Veronica Correia would be the perfect fit to model for her company, Toccara Intimates.

For starters, Toccara and Veronica both have similar body shapes and bra sizes ... Veronica's 36G bra caught Drake's attention during his recent concert in Brooklyn.

But, it's not only about the curves for Toccara .. who tells us she also likes the confidence Veronica has in her body, as evidenced by her behavior at the concert.

She adds, Veronica should move quickly to cash in on her newfound fame. As we reported, Playboy's also offering an opportunity ... so the iron is plenty hot.

Toccara says even if Veronica doesn't seize the day, she's already struck a blow for women with all natural assets -- a statement that came with a very jiggly exhibition!

Tyra Banks is hanging up her ballroom outfits, and slipping into serious business attire ... she's calling it quits at "Dancing with the Stars" to pursue her passion as an entrepreneur.

We got the supermodel Thursday on her way out of Whole Foods in Santa Monica when she dropped the bombshell about ending her time at 'DWTS' -- the show she's hosted since 2020.

TB recently launched her SMiZE & Dream ice cream internationally, but now she's focused on bringing it to the U.S. soon -- she says her heart and her soul are in business, and had some proof in her shopping cart.

She showed us the goods she just bought to do some taste testing for future ice cream flavors. Like the woman said, she's dead serious about research and development!

Of course, Tyra's been a fixture on TV for years, from "America's Next Top Model" to "The Tyra Banks Show" and more. She says she'll work on TV in the future, but it'll be more on the side of producing, not hosting.

Don't let the flashing cameras distract you from the differences in these two paparazzi shots of Bella Hadid ... The supermodel was recently photographed sporting a casual look -- wearing a 'Free Palestine' tank and heading to a record shop -- in New York City.

Yes, Bella always looks stunning on and off the runway -- making it hard to not be drawn to her piercing blue eyes -- but you may just want to adjust your lens and look elsewhere. Can you follow the necessary steps and scout the differences between these two images?

Australian actress and model Ruby Rose intrigued us all when she was locked up on the crazy popular prison show as the side-shaved Stella Carlin for season 3 of Netflix's hit show "Orange Is the New Black" back in 2015.

She shared the screen with lead actress Taylor Schilling who played the poorly adjusting inmate, Piper Chapman and Laverne Cox as the salon boss, Sophia Burset.

Rose was also an MTV Australia presenter and co-hosted "Australia's Next Top Model" in 2009 as well as "The Project" until 2011.

Today Ruby enjoys lounging around and hanging with her fur-babies.

Love isn't dead after all -- NBA baller Kyle Kuzma and supermodel Winnie Harlow are officially dating again ... just five months after breaking up.

TMZ Sports has learned ... Kuz and Harlow picked up right where they left off earlier this month, deciding to give their relationship another try.

We're told the split wasn't ugly to begin with -- both sides kept in touch and remained friends during their time away from each other.

We broke the story -- the Wizards forward and former "America's Next Top Model" contestant ended things back in August after more than a year of dating.

They were one of the biggest quarantine couples to develop during the pandemic ... after Harlow says Kuz successfully slid into her DMs on Instagram.

Their love remained strong during the NBA bubble in Orlando ... with Winnie sending a plane over the Disney campus on Kuz's birthday to give him a special message.
