ArchivesTop Model’s Tiffany was “fed up—and not with modeling, but with reality TV.”
Tiffany Richardson caused one of reality TV’s most memorable moments on last week’s episode of America’s Next Top Model 4, when Tyra Banks unloaded on her. Tyra was upset because Tiffany appeared to have given up. So why was Tiffany so unenthusiastic? She tells TV Guide, “I was fed up — and not with modeling, but with reality TV. The photo shoots I loved, but all the bickering and fussing that you guys don’t see… it built up inside of me, and I guess I really let it show in my work during the last episode.” She adds, “It looked to her as if I gave up — and to half of America, too! But like I told her, nobody knew what I was going through on the inside, you know? I wasn’t losing confidence, I was fed up with people throwing at me, ‘Oh, you’re ghetto’ or trying to change me into somebody that I’m not.” Tiffany says that both Tyra and her mom came up to her afterwards and gave her a hug, and Tyra now “calls me maybe once, twice a week to check up on me and see how I’m doing.”
