Tyra:
Many people believe
I created "Top Model"

to show girls
just how to become models.

But no, it was about
much more than that.

"America's Next Top Model"
has changed the definition
of beauty

and empowered women
when they needed it
the most.

Model 1:People tell me
I'm too old to model.

Model 2:I've been judged for
my shape and size.

I feel shameful
about my body.

But I define myself.

I can do anything.

Tyra:
We celebrate the beauty
in all of us.

All shapes, all sizes,
and all colors.

"Top Model" is my baby

and the fight continues
to show you

that you are beautiful.

That's why I'm back.

TyTy's ready for you.

Tyra:
Tyra's back.

Touch me,
I just wanna feel
you guys.

- We're here.
- New family.

Khrystyana:I'm very happy
that Tyra's back

but she's the boss,
she's everything.

Let the games begin.

Tyra:
This is the most diverse
group we have ever had

and you know I got rid
of that age limit.

Ashley:
That's a thick thigh, honey.

I like 'em!

- It feels so good.
- Yeah, you like that?

Tyra likes it.

Model:
Everything's just so different
this time around

from anything I'd ever
seen in past cycles.

What's happening right now?

Oh! Ooh!

Come on.
Let's do it.

You better vogue, girl.

Model:
Oh, my God!

Work! Work!

You better get into
this picture, baby girl.

Drew:
This is your moment,
not mine, girl.

Do something!

This would go never
go viral.

This would go like
on your refrigerator
on a magnet.

This isn't a shot
that you should be proud of.

Not everybody's gonna
like me

and I'm not gonna like
everybody either.

Law:
Wow.

When you come in this room,
you respect my judges.

She takes my gay away.

( gasps )
Awful.

You fake as ( bleep )
and I don't like you.

This is deeply rooted,
psychological warfare.

I don't want
America's Next Top Model
to be any of these sociopaths.

( screaming )

Just stay away from me,
each and every one of you!

I know you're a bad bitch,
congratu-( bleep )-lations.

I don't want people to feel
like I need pity.

But you're acting pitiful.

You have to let that
( bleep ) go

because you're gonna go
right back to where you
came from.

Just saying I felt like
I'm not good enough.

Tyra:
Beauty know no age,
no size, no color...

I put my dreams
on hold, but I never
stopped dreaming.

Drew:
All of those people
that have insecurities

I've worn mine on my face
every day.

I'm not gonna cry right now
because I'm better than that.

Tyra:
You can model your ass off.

( screams )

Law:
Only menage-a-trois,
bad man.

This is what I've
been waiting on.

Tyra:
#nextlevelfierce.

Oh, my God!
Touch me, I just wanna
feel you guys.

- ( laughter )
- We're here, you're here!

- New family.
- Yes ma'am.

We have one week to go
from 26 to 14 girls.

I've got the girls here
for casting.

so we can evaluate their
overall looks and their
personality.

And we've asked each girl
to bring a photo that represents
her raw talent.

- Got it.
- Tyra: Are we ready?

- Ashley: I'm ready.
- Yup!

It is good to be back
for 24.

Model diversity is
so important.

We want a girl that
is not like anybody else

and who is authentically
herself.

The modeling industry
is really evolving

and "America's Next Top Model"
is right there in front
of it.

We have every shape,
every size, every color,

and you know I got
rid of that age limit.

I was like "paddow"
it's gone.

So, it is 18 and infinity.

- Good.
- Oh.

I'm so excited that Tyra
is lifting the age limit.

I've been known to work
with some of the biggest stars.

Celebrities can be any age,

and you buy into their image
even before you hear them speak

or know what their talent is.

We're doing something a little
different this cycle.

We will talk to
each girl,

and at any time if you feel
she not next level fierce,

no matter where we are

we have the power together
to cut her.

Next level fierce.

I of all people really believe
that women of all kinds

should see themselves
in media.

To have their bodies
portrayed in a beautiful way.

And that's what I'm trying
to do today.

( overlapping chatter
and laughter )

Are you excited to meet Tyra?

I'm gonna try to
like hold it in.

Oh, my gosh, like, Tyra Banks!
Like, I just love her

because she represents
not only being a model,

but being a mogul,
which is something
I aspire to be.

I've just been following her
all of my life.

All right, send in
the first girl.

Hello!

- Drew: Hello
- Hi.

- Ashley: Hey, hey.
- My name is Ivana.

I just came from China
where I was getting my
masters degree

- in global affairs.
- Whoo! I want to be
America's Next Top Model!

You also like to speak
some Mandarin, right?

- She just cussed me out,
but it's all good.
- ( laughter )

I feel like I'm similar
to Tyra in many ways

because she went to Harvard.

I even graduated valedictorian
in my high school.

But that's not something
that people would

you know, naturally think
when they see me.

So, you brought a picture here
to show us raw talent.

Let's see what you brought.

( judges reacting
excitedly )

You were giving me
bootch-tootch realness.

You're every woman
and this picture is sickening.

- It's a yes, baby.
- It's yes.

Ashley:
Beyond being a beautiful woman
and having great shape

you are smart and there is
a brand behind you.

- Thank you.
- So, I'm a yes.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you! ( screams )

- You are next level fierce!
- Whoo!

Is it weird I kinda
wanna date her?

- That is next level fierce.
- ( laughs )

Tyra: Oh, she's so happy.

Ashley:
Look at these curved girls.

Hi, I'm Khrystyana,
I'm 32 years old,

and I am from Siberia,
but currently from
New York.

- 32, hollah.
- Khrystyana: 32, yeah.

Past the 27 limit.

I used to love
"America's Next Top Model."

Just the fact that they're
breaking all the molds

and the idea of what's
beautiful.

I think you're beautiful
inside and outside.

- Law: Yeah.
- Thank you.

Krhystyana :
I'm not obviously perfect,

I have a ton of beautiful
cellulite and stretch marks
and they're all over me.

Let's see your picture.

- Tyra:Those hips are
gorgeous!
- Ashley:Yes!

Ashley:Even though you've got
your black shirt and your
arms around,

your face is shining through.

For me, this is a yes.

I think the picture is
wonderful.

I think it really shows
your beautiful body.
You're a yes for me.

You are next level fierce
and you're moving on in this
competition, girl.

( squeals )
Thank you so much.

Hi. My name is Shanice,
and I am from Murfreesboro,
Tennessee.

Have you been to Tennessee?

I have,
you got some good ribs.

- I have good ribs?
- Um, no, no, Tennessee.

- ( Judges laugh )
- Oh! Tennessee has
good ribs.

You actually thought I was
saying you have some
nice ribs?

- Yes.
- I love it.

How many tattoos
do you have?

Shanice: Too many.

I originally got inspired
by my brother.

My oldest brother
who just passed away.

- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

Of a heart attack.

I've had it hard.
We were very poor.

The house I grew up in.

It's my mama's house.

This is house is really old.

I'm ready to prove
to my mom

that I know, that at least one
of her kids can be somebody.

Can you see your picture
that you brought today?

Okay.

Drew:This wouldn't be
my first choice.

I think you are cooler
than this picture,

but I see tons of potential.

So for me, it's a yes.

I say yes.

Shanice, we all love you.
We love your story

and unfortunately...

you're gonna be stuck
with us for a little longer

- 'cause you are moving on!
- ( judges laughing )

- Thank you so much!
- Drew: We love your ribs!

( laughter )

- Hello!
- Judges: Hi!

My name is Liberty,
I am from Lava Hot Springs,
Idaho

and I'm 20 years old.

- Idaho!
- Liberty: Yes.

Everyone always says
potatoes, don't they?

Yeah, everyone says
potatoes.

Where I'm from is
500 and like 60 people
maybe,

so it's conservative
and pro-Trump.

I genuinely didn't really know
what a Muslim was when
I moved to L.A.

and we had I think
two African-American people
in my town

and so I need to know more.

Law:You're a really
pretty girl but I don't really
see a model.

I think this is more of
a pretty country singer
and this is your album cover.

It's a no from me.

If you're willing to put
in the work, then you're
a yes from me.

Well, Liberty, I see
what Law sees.

But I also see potential.

You are next level fierce
and you are moving on.

Thank you.

I thought I was going home.

I thought that maybe
they thought that maybe
I was just

another beautiful face,

but luckily they did see
a little something there.

No, as a people,
what we need to do

is speak up a lot more.

I am actually pro-Trump.

Because of his empire,
I believe that he's really
going to bring in

some career opportunity
for us

and hopefully bring up
our economy a little bit.

Chrissy:
I know your parents,
they might be racist

and they might be Trump
supporters

but you don't have to
follow that cycle.

You can get out of there,
okay?

Hi, I'm Mia,
I'm 19,

and everybody calls me
Bambi.

And you look like
a bird.

- Like a beautiful bird.
- ( laughter )

Drew: You can't tell what
ethnicity you are.

I'm Black, White,
and Japanese.

-Arigato.
- ( laughs )

- She's like, "I don't know
what she's saying.
- ( laughter )

Like, I know a little bit,
but not that much.

Girl, that was thank you,
you need to know that.

Right now, I'm a little shy
because I'm very nervous.

This is like
the real deal.

I'm not 100% sure
that you have exactly
what it takes

to be in this dog eat dog
kind of fashion world

so for me it's a no
right now.

I love your natural hair,
I love your little
bird-like nose

but I think we need
Simba, not Bambi.

So, we don't think
you're next level fierce...
yet.

I'm very shy, but I
completely switch up when
it comes to photo shoots

and runways and I didn't
even get a chance to show them.

- ( crying )
- You made it this far.
babe.

Yeah, you got
all the way here.

Put that towards your passion,
you have passion for this
industry.

Ashley:
The photo sucks,
but for me it's a yes.

It's an absolute yes.

You're moving on in this
competition.

Thank you so much!

Drew:It's yes!

For me it's a yes.

Congratulations, Chrissy.

( screams )
Oh, my God!

Ashley:
This photo is overly
retouched,

and so it's hard for me
to see the raw you.

For me, it's a no.

I'm so sorry, but you will
not be continuing on
in the competition.

- Thank you guys,
thank you so much.
- Judges: Thank you.

- Hi.
- Hello, everyone.
My name is Erin.

I am this bold, vibrant,
42 year old.

You are frozen in time.

- ( chuckles )
- Girl, did you throw
on a wig?

- Yes!
- Take that thing off
right now.

- ( overlapping chatter )
- Tyra: There's a beauty.

Give me that thing!

- Child.
- ( laughter )

This is how you look?
Do you see how crazy
I look?

That's how you look.
You got all this beauty up
under there

and hide behind bozo,
girl.

You're a grandmother
of three?

Three grandchildren
and I have five children.

42, you can be fierce
at any age.

You know what
trips me out about age in
the modeling industry

is I don't know why people
are so caught up in
the number.

To me it's how you look.

- Ashley: Yeah.
- You are so gorgeous.

Thank you so much.

Ashley:Those legs are life.

You're a yes for me.

As long as you promise me
that you'll never put that
wig on again.

- Never.
- I say yes.

Congratulations,
you're moving on
in this competition.

Whoo!
This is unbelievable!

Congratulations.

( screams )

Hi, everyone.

Judges: Hi!

Whoo!

I knew it!
I knew this would happen.

But that makes me
remember you.

That girl that tripped,
what'd you think about her?

Ashley: Ooh, Liz?

( screams and laughs )

I love what you're doing,
Ashley.

and I wanna be
one of you.

- I love you too.
- ( screams )

How many shots of vodka
did you have before
you walked in this room?

- This is me sober.
- Drew: No.

I want to create a brand
just so that I can book you
to be the face of it.

- It's a yes.
- You're a yes.

You are next level fierce,
honey, and you are moving
to this next level.

Can we like get drinks
when this is all over?

Just pull that flask
from between your boobs

because I know you got one.

( laughter )

Hi, I'm Christina,
I'm 34 years old

and I'm from Jenkintown,
Pennsylvania.

- Wait, how old are you?
- Whoa!

- 34.
- My...

- Child.
- You have a very
editorial face.

- Thank you.
- It seems that you can
do high fashion.

Do you think that you can
also do, let's say,
a makeup campaign?

I've had a lot
of success with modeling.

I've shot with
Ellen von Unwerth,
I've shot with Ryan McGinley,

I know I have
a beautiful face.

I'm a model.

Your presence is a little
off-putting to me,

- Yeah?
- it's almost like-- yeah,
I don't really like her.

As I've gotten older,
I've learned that not
everybody's gonna like me.

This is true.

And I'm not gonna like
everybody either.

- Oh, my God.
- Drew: Wow.

Tyra:
You can get cut
at any time.

So bring your A game
every single moment.

I've done runway before,
but I've never done runway

where Tyra Banks is
watching me.

Hey.

I'm just saying,
it's obnoxious!

Liz is crazy.

Get out of my face.

Behind this fabric
is each of you's fate.

As I've gotten older
I've learned that not
everybody's gonna like me.

This is true.

And I'm not gonna like
everybody either.

- Oh, my God.
- Drew: Wow.

What's happening right now?

It's a way to read out
your resume but not to make it
sound like,

"I'm better than."
For me it's a no.

If I come off that way,
I apologize.

- I don't know if that
was genuine.
- Okay.

And again, it's like,
"Okay."

You know the interesting
thing is,

you're probably older
than people on this panel.

- Older than me.
- But now you are
a child.

and I am talking to you
almost like a parent,
like tough love.

So when you come in this room,
in my house,

you respect my judges.

You got that?

I'm trying to hold together all
the emotions and the nerves

'cause I do think I am
a person that people
should want to call up.

This is not what I had
pictured in my head
to happen.

It was stupid...
stupid.

Tyra:
Well, let's see the photo
that you brought.

I see potential.
You're a yes for me.

I do not like attitude,
with that said...

I think that there is
something in you

so you are a yes for me.

For you to come
for Law,

and then cry moments later,
I'm confused.

But I'm listening
to the judges and
I'm looking at you

and I also see potential.

Congratulations,
you are continuing
in this competition.

- Thank you.
- Okay.

Let's just take a moment.

I have never
in the auditioning process
of "America's Next Top Model"

had a model talk back
to the judge.

So there's a first time
for everything.

Hello.

Hi.
I am Jeana,

I am from Minneapolis,
Minnesota and I'm 24.

And what makes you
interesting, special,
different?

I have a disease
called alopecia universalis

so it's autoimmune.

It attacks my hair follicles
and my hair falls out.

It's hard to talk about.

I was told for so long
that I wasn't beautiful.

I've been accused of being a man
because I have no hair.

Constantly battling
and trying to prove yourself
and be feminine

it's exhausting.

Law:
I like your story
and I like your energy

for me it's a yes.

You're a 100% yes.

I see a very beautiful girl
with hair or without hair.

You're next level fierce.

- Hey, guys.
- Hi.

I'm Maggie,
20 years old from
Surry, Maine.

About to be 21, girl.

Ooh, what was that pose?

It's like the hip pop
is my thing.

- Tyra: Oh.
- So what to do you like
to refer to yourself as?

- White homegirl.
- What?

Yeah, that's like
my nickname.

Surry, Maine is like
very white, preppy

and then when I went to college,
like, we're talking Oakland,

it literally, like,
stripped me of my,
like, white girl.

Tyra:
Let's see the picture
that you brought.

- Law:Very Ralph Lauren.
- Ashley:Yeah, very
Ralph Lauren.

I don't see you
as a white homegirl.

Like, I see it completely
go away until you're trying
to be sassy.

But I love this picture,
I love your look,

I think it's really modern,
so for me, it's a yes.

You're continuing on
in this competition.

Thank you.

- Hello Ms. Shoulders.
- Hello!

I'm Lyric, I'm 22,
and I'm from Los Angeles.

You are kind of like royalty.

My dad is Kenny Anderson,
a retired NBA player,

my mom is a reality star,
she's on "Basketball Wives."

- Whoa.
- Drew: Whoa.

You have a great personality,
you have a celebrity in you.

But I think that you
can explode in other areas

well beyond modeling.
You're a no for me.

- A no?
- Ashley: I have to agree
with Drew.

You're a no for me.

I agree, that we need
a lights, camera, action on you.
You're an actress.

So, Lyric, that mean
you will not be continuing
in this competition.

- Judges: Thank you.
- Thank you guys.

Can somebody drop a beat?

♪ I'm a boss,
B, O, double S ♪

♪ And I got the sauce

- ( fight sound effects )
- ( judges reacting )

And you got sound effects
too.

So, you're kind of
a pure woman.

Yes, I'm Muslim.

I am a virgin,
I don't drink or smoke.

I'm two of those three.

- Really?
- Yeah, girl.

- Hi.
- Oh, my goodness, look at
this gorgeousness.

- You are not real.
- Stop.

- Don't she look like
an alien?
- A beautiful alien.

( stammering )
I'm sorry, when I say that,
that's a compliment.

- Ashley: No, it is, it is.
- Coura: Thank you.

This is your leader.

You are next planet fierce.

I think that's the best
thing I've ever heard.

( laughter )

( cheering and clapping )

I'm so excited, but I want
to make it to the end.

I want to be
America's Next Top Model.

I wanna make it all the way.

Well, ladies,
congratulations.

( cheers and applause )

You 20 are moving on
to the next level

but don't get too comfortable

because there are only
14 spots for the finalists.

The next thing you're
gonna do is a photo shoot

and you can get cut
at any time this week,

so bring your A game
every single moment.

Everything's just so different
this time around

from anything I'd ever seen
in past cycles.

Cuts are just happening.

I don't think I'm gonna
stop freaking out.

Shanice:
Today is our very first
photo shoot

and I am so nervous.

This opportunity is surreal,
like, this is L.A.,

like, I don't see this
in Tennessee.

Like, I dream of things
like this.

Hi, ladies!

We are in L.A.,
this town is the focal point

of film and fashion,
and that's why were here
at Greystone Mansion.

This historical home
has been the site
of many movies,

television shows,
fashion shoots, runway shows,

and even Tyra Banks shot
with Victoria's Secret here.

( cheering and clapping )

You guys have the privilege
of this being the site

of your very first
photo shoot,

So, styling today's shoot,
he is the man behind

Lady Gaga's iconic looks.

He is the artistic director
of Diesel,

he has his own line,
Nicopanda.

My dear friend,
Nicola Formichetti

- Yeah! ( laughs )
- ( cheers and applause )

Nicola:
I'm so excited to be here.

We're gonna have
so much fun today.

Drew:
So today we're going
to shoot in the upper gardens.

So Nicola has made
some amazing "avant-garden"
couture pieces

for you to wear today.

Remember,
there are 20 of you now,

there are gonna be 14
by the end of the week,

so be on your A game.

The fact that we can
be cut at any time

like, you can't let up
or feel safe at any moment

because Tyra can do anything
she wants.

All right, go!
Let's get ready!

( cheers and applause )

( gasps and chuckles )

I'm in heaven.

How you feeling right now?

Like, if Courtney Love
was Alice in Wonderland.

- Whoo!
- Fierce!

Well, Tyra said
I'm next level fierce so...

you know what,
for the rest of my life--

I'm writing that
on my resume.

I think the girls
should look out

for the fact that
I have been through hell
and back already.

When I was 19
I came down with a tumor

that was seen in
65, 70 year olds.

I was ready to die.

I remember telling God,
if I'm not gonna make it
to Hollywood

just take me,
it's okay.

12 hours later I woke up.

This is my battle scar,
super proud of it.

I think that was God's way
of telling me,

"Look, don't waste this."

Drew: All right, Rio.

This is our first
photo shoot of the season,

so I'm looking for
the authentic self
of these girls.

They need to bring
their personality to life

because any moment
these girls could be eliminated.

- That's nice. That's nice.
- Wow, amazing, yeah,
amazing.

Drew:
Love how this looks
on your body.

That's fabulous.
You gave it.

- Photographer: Ooh! Careful.
- Drew: Careful, though.

Now, Liz, do something
where you look beautiful

instead of, like,
drunk.

( chuckles )
See? I like those.

Yes.

Yes, that's nice.
I like this variety.

This looks amazing!

Pressure's on.

I have to win over Law.
Law doesn't like me.

You're a really pretty girl,
but I think this is more
of a pretty country singer

and this is your album cover.

I have to show him
that I'm not an actress
or a country singer.

- Model: Yup!
- That I'm high fashion
modeling.

Beautiful, oh, wow.
That looks beautiful!

Lift up your head a bit.

Amazing.

Put it in your brain,
"I'm the queen of the
butterflies

and this is how I roll."

Photographer: That's good.

It's a really crazy feeling
to be here

because I've been watching
"America's Next Top Model"

ever since I was, like,
a kid.

My dad, he's African-American
and my mom's white.

Growing up, people would
always say racist things

like, "Oh well you're
only half, that shouldn't
offend you."

That's when it started
to anger me.

and so I wanted to make
a difference

and I hosted a rally.

- Photographer: Beautiful!
- Drew: That's great.

As a woman, as an
African-American

I just think that
it's so important to be
very educated.

and I think it's very important
to have a voice.

And I want to use modeling
to make a difference.

- Photographer: Yes.
- That's good, thank you.

And honey,
keep those eyes open.

Never have your eyes closed.

Ilka:
The fact that I was
a boxer before

is something that's really
gonna help me in
the photo shoots.

I feel really confident
about it.

Drew:
And twirl all the way around.

Photographer:
All the way, 360.

Arms out.
It's more theatrical.

360!
Okay, you're done.

Hi, how are you?

I might be 42,
but I have this opportunity

and I need to prove myself
to the judges.

I'm just praying
and hoping and wishing

that I can be able
to stay in for the long haul.

You know, I don't want to
go home.

Photographer:
Just keep giving me stuff.

A little bit more straight.

No, you have to give us
all kinds of different looks
in this.

Okay, now happy,
what would happy look like?

Is that it?
Be sure, this is your moment
not mine, girl.

Like, I'm gonna have to
choose one of these photos
to decide

if you stay in or out.

Drew:
Erin is going to have to
use age to her advantage.

She's struggling.

What else do we got?

I'm really trying to get
a great shot of her

because I know that
she has it in her.

It's frustrating.

Do something!
You're done.

I gave off a really
bad impression

on the first panel.

I definitely have
a lot to prove.

Let's be a real model.

Somebody gotta go.

We are about to get
our heart crushed.

Today is my very first
photo shoot,

but I definitely need to
win this.

I'm ready to be able
to support my mom

the way that she supported
her six kids.

There is nothing
that is gonna get in my way.

There you go,
that's great.

That's fabulous.

And just move it in front
of you, like, a lot.

- That is really cool.
- Nice.

One, two, three, go.

Photographer:
That is the shot.

Yeah, that's good.

Like, "Oh, my God, I get to be
in this beautiful garden!

On 'America's Next Top Model'
and this is my first shoot."

Ooh! Nice, that's beautiful.

- Drew: Yeah, that's it.
- Yeah?

Let's see a new expression
other than

"I'm a model,
I'm standing here

in the middle of a set."

Okay.

Queen! Queen! Queen!

It looks like you're
a part of the wild life,

so make sure you're giving
us variety with your face.

( tiger growling )

Maybe not so literal?

I gave off
a really bad impression
on the first panel.

As I've gotten older,
I've learned that not everybody
is going to like me.

This is true.

And I'm not gonna like
everybody either.

Drew: Wow.

Christina:Until I hear
some really strong positive
feedback from the judges

I'm gonna be nervous
all the time.

Make it count,
these count!

Let's be like a real,
like, model.

- I love that, that's it.
Done.
- Nicola: That's amazing.

All right,
that's a wrap!

Tyra: How'd it go?

Well, some were great,
some struggled.

Drew, if they don't
have a good photo,
this could be it.

- Drew:Amazing.
- Tyra:What?
Broken down doll!

-Whoa!
- Drew:She really did an
amazing job.

Tyra:
Oh, Erin looks beautiful.

-She's modeling to me though,
like 1982.
- Drew:Right.

If she stays she has to be
broken out of this,

- like, church fashion show
modeling.
- Church.

I learned how to walk
on the church fashion shows.

But see then I twisted it
and made it my own.
She's still in the church.

- Drew:Ms. Maggie.
- She don't look like no
homegirl right here.

Exactly.

Tyra:
Whoa. This is Lady Gaga
and the Queen of Hearts.

Drew:
The first two shots
she already had it.

Tyra:
She looks a little lost

like she doesn't
know what the hell she's doing.

- Drew:Right.
- Tyra:But there's a raw
talent there.

Liberty's sweet.
She's a little safe.

Not super interesting.
More traditional.

- Drew:Laminat.
- Tyra:Oh, she doesn't know.

Drew:I mean, she probably
has the least amount
of experience.

If she starts to rap,
maybe that would have
helped her.

Yeah, she didn't.

Drew:
Ilka really struggled too.

and I tried to get her
to do so many different things.

Drew:Christina was difficult
as you can imagine.

- There's more in her.
- Yeah, there's something.

So, Drew,
a couple of these girls,

I don't think
they should continue.

They are not up to par
with the other girls.

You know, interviewing them,
now they got the photo shoot...

somebody gotta go.

- Well hello, ladies.
- All: Hi.

You all look like
pieces of art.

And I want this art
to walk down a runway.

- Hey.
- Tyra: Below this garden

is a fashion show.

( models cheering
and clapping )

We can't just have this
in a photo only.

However...

based on
your photo shoot today

and based on your
presentation yesterday,
I made a decision.

Not every single one of you will
be walking in that fashion show.

I'm like...
( sharp exhale ) here we go.
Who's it gonna be?

We are about to get
our heart crushed.

Laminat, Ilka...

you will not be continuing.
I'm sorry.

Thank you
for the opportunity,
it really means a lot.

I've always been
a fighter so

I'm really proud of myself
for making it this far.

So...

who else is not walking
in this fashion show?

You're just jumping
from one thing to another.

This is how I feel!

It's Liz,
making all this commotion.

All I hear is her.

I'm not!
All of you guys are!

- ( screams and cheers )
- Tyra: Whoo!

I'm retired y'all.

Drew:
For the rest of you

you're gonna get to walk
in your first fashion show
right now.

And you may have
the opportunity to move into
the model house tonight.

Let me tell you,
you're gonna want to move
into this house.

( cheers and applause )

So you better bring it

and me and Drew will
be watching all of you.

- Okay, good luck.
- Drew: Good luck.

- Thank you, Tyra.
- All right, bye-bye.

Oh, ( bleep ).

Rio:I've done runway before,

but I've never done
runway when Tyra Banks
is watching me, okay?

You know, this could
be the moment where I could
get eliminated.

Tyra:
Uh-oh, uh-oh, uh-oh.

♪ I rock 24 karats

♪ 24/7, 24/7

♪ I rock 24 karats

Tyra:
Uh-oh, whoo!

Just as crazy
as she want to be.

- ( laughter )
- I love this girl.

♪ 24/7

Oh!

Sandra:
I am very unique from
the other girls.

You don't see a lot
of Muslim models out there.

Just because they do not
believe in modeling,

and so making it
to the final 14 would inspire
a lot of Muslim girls

to be like, "Wow,
she's Muslim and she did
what she loved."

♪ I rock 24 karats,
24/7, 24/7 ♪

Erin:
I get pumped up
when I get on the runway.

My walk tells a story.

I'm glad that Tyra
is able to see the walk
that lives within Erin.

Like, this is me all day!

Shanice:
Living in a mansion
with models,

that's a dream come true.

I lived in raggedy,
run-down houses.

We used blow dryers
for heat.

Erin:
I'm used to being
in a house full of kids.

I'm about to beat
the competition

because I have years
of experience.

These girls don't have
nothing on me.

- ( overlapping chatter )
- Oh, my God.

I've never stepped foot
in anything this nice

in my entire life.

Honestly, it's like a big
Cinderella story.

I'm the little girl
that comes from nothing.

I grew up in a trailer.

And the kitchen is as big
as my trailer was when
I was growing up.

Look at this view, y'all!

- This is so awesome.
- ( laughter )

Mama, I made it!

Do you guys think
they're going to eliminate
today or tomorrow?

- Today.
- Tonight.

Really?

One, two, three,
four, five, six.

Six up here.

The amount of beds
is not equal to the amount
of girls that is here.

There's only room for 14,

so we know that there's
four girls going to be cut.

Tyra could literally
walk through that door

so that moment of...

is-- is coming.

And that fact that
anybody could go home
at any time.

- I fell like that's a constant
thing throughout the cycle.
- Yeah.

I'm nervous because
I definitely didn't start out
on the right foot

and there's too many girls.

Someone's not gonna be happy.

- Tyra! Tyra, are you there?
- ( laughing )

I'm, like, really struggling
and it makes me really sad.

And that's why
I'm, like, upset.

And yeah, it's jealousy,
it is.

Liz:
Khrystyana, we're both
curved models

and she is definitely
some really stiff competition

and I'm feeling a little
jealous

and I'm just having
a really hard time with it.

- I'm just saying--
- You're just jumping from
one thing to another--

Wait, no, no, no.
You're not letting me finish.

It was just like
one thing after another
after another.

Khrystyana:
Liz seems very upset

and I'm feeling very confused
and I'm not really sure

what is she upset about.

I think she thinks
we're really close friends

which I don't understand why.

Liz:
I'm just telling you
my feelings.

- With all due respect--
- I'm telling you how I felt.

Yeah.

Rio:
It's the very first night

It's Liz, like
( gibberish sounds )

she's making all this
commotion.

She's on a whole
'nother level.

Liz:
I'm just saying, like,
it's obnoxious!

Because this is how I feel!

Jesus, my head hurts.
It's insane.

All I hear is her,
like, chill out.

Liz is just crazy.

At least-- I just--
like, I just want you to know
that, like--

I just feel, like,
really, like, crappy, you know?

Erin:
This girl, Liz,

is crazy over the top drama.

- You have to tone it down.
- You have to calm down.

You don't have
to be aggressive and
argumentative with her.

- I'm not being aggressive.
- Yes, you are.

- Sweetie, yes, you are.
- Please just get out my face.

Up there.

Sandra:
The fact that there's
not enough beds in the house

is really scary.

Like Tyra said before

you can go home
at any time,

so it makes me
really nervous.

Yes.

Come here.

Model:
Well, that's not bad.

- Hello!
- ( screaming excitedly )

Come up here.

- Hi, hi.
- Hi.

Hello, hello, hello,
my ladies.

- My beautiful girls.
- All: Hi.

- How're we all feeling?
- All: Good.

- Ain't this house purdy?
- All: Yes!

I think it's one of
the purdiest Top Model
houses we have ever had.

So, you guys worked it
in a fashion show yesterday,

- Model: Yes.
- Uh-huh.

And it was like art,
it was beautiful.

Some of you were fantastic,
some not so strong.

And today, behind this fabric

is each and every single one
of you's fate.

Tyra's definitely not here
to hang out,

she's here to do business,
like a boss woman should.

Elimination time.

This week you never know
when you are going to be cut.

There are 18 of you
in front of me,

there are only 14 spaces
for my finalists.

So what are you guys
thinking?

How are you feeling
right now?

- Terrified.
- You're terrified?

I want this so bad.
( sniffles )

- I know.
- I'm excited to learn
my fate.

I want to know so bad
'cause I want it so bad.

The final 14
that are next level fierce

and will be competing
to be America's Next Top Model
are...

( screaming )

your future is behind
this red fabric.

The final 14
that will be competing

to be
America's Next Top Model
are...

( gasping and screaming )

Yes!

We made it!

Oh, that's bomb.

( wailing )

Christina:
After everything that
happened,

I'm super excited
and I'm so grateful

that I've been given
the opportunity to still
be here.

You made it.

You look so good.

This is so fierce.

- That's gorgeous.
- ( gasps )

Let me see.

I'm pretty, pretty
proud of myself.

But I start looking around
and I notice that there is,
like, some sunken faces.

( overlapping chatter )

I can't even really talk.
I'm sorry y'all.

Congratulations
to all of you.

My kids would have
been proud.

If I would have made it,
I would've told them

that they can do anything,
be anybody,

Mama went for it,
and she didn't make it
all the way through,

- but that's okay.
- ( distant excited chatter )

Yay, hey!

It just happened
way too fast and I just
really believed

that Tyra, if she would
have gave me enough time

I know that I would have
been able to impress her.

- ( overlapping shouting )
- Ah!

Hey.

It's okay.

I'm so, so sorry.
I know this meant a lot
to you,

- and I just wish you the best.
- Thank you, I appreciate that.

Tyra, you're the best.

Thank you for changing
the game

and giving older women
this opportunity.

'cause there's a chance for
everyone, you know.

Mm-hmm.
You're welcome.

Alrighty, Erin.
Good luck.

- There's 15 girls.
- ( laughs )

- What?
- There's 15 girls.

( gasping )
Are you ( bleep )?

- Are you serious?
- ( laughs )

I have one photo
in my hands.

Tyra! Stop!

Oh, my God!

There was 14 and I said
you know what?

- This woman is amazing...
- ( crying )

she is absolutely beautiful.

She was 20 years old
and she had a dream,
but she had babies

and that put the dream
on hold while you raised

these beautiful
human beings,

but this beauty never stopped.

Beauty knows no age,
no size, no color.

And you deserve to be here
with every single one
of these girls here.

- And girl, I started modeling
when I was 15 years old...
- Erin: I know.

- And you are number 15.
- ( crying )

- You have to work so hard.
- I know.

You know how black girls
have to work harder?

You're a black girl,
and you're not 20 years old.

- You're gonna get judged
harsher...
- I know.

...And that's just the truth,

and I believe in you,
and I think that you
can do this.

Thank you.

I put my dreams on hold
because I wanted to raise
a family...

and that's what you do
as a mom.

But I never stopped dreaming,
I never stopped dreaming.

Erin, it's time for you
to put your picture
on the photo wall.

( applause )

Erin:Tyra, girl,
not only are you giving me
this opportunity,

you're giving millions
of ladies my age

the courage to say
I can do it.

Tyra's back
and the fierceness is going
to the next level!

( cheers and applause )

Stacey McKenzie:Don't give me
that commercial walk.

This ain't no
commercial show.

This is high fashion, baby.

Rhiyan:
But first we gotta
kill the walk

then we gotta avoid
skateboarders

flying left and right
across our face.

I'm just like...

Okay, now, makeup is
gonna take a little longer
than usual,

- not nine months.
- ( laughter )

I am done cleaning up
after you guys!

You're grown ass adults,
get your ( bleep ) together.

There's nothing elegant
about it.

It's not working.

Tyra:
We see your beauty.
