AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL

Paulina recently got the stiletto boot from ANTM and she isn’t mincing any words about her stank relationship with Fivehead Lacefront Banks:

Supermodel Paula Porizkova said she was fired from “America’s Next Top Model” due to what producers called an ego problem. In a new interview for Access Hollywood and “The Billy Bush Show,” Paulina opened up to Billy about her dismissal as a judge from the popular reality series, created and hosted by Tyra Banks. “I must admit I was having a little bit of an issue with Tyra being late for every judging,” she told Billy. “It’s six hours later and I feel like I am being told my time is not as valuable as hers. They pointed out that I should shut up and be grateful for the job and that Tyra is really busy.”

“I think that my little hissy fits about ‘Well, we are all here on time. Why can’t she (Tyra)?’ didn’t go over all that well,” added Paulina, who replaced the previous judge, supermodel Twiggy. When asked if there might have been an issue that she was the only other woman on the judging panel, Paulina said she didn’t think that was the case, especially when it comes to Tyra. “I don’t think that in Tyra’s universe that’s even a consideration. I don’t think she cares,” she said. “I’m not even sure she was aware that I existed way out there in Siberia, much like I am not sure she knew Twiggy existed.”

And while Paulina and Tyra clearly didn’t get along in the professional landscape, did the two have any off-camera conversations? “I wouldn’t know [what kind of person Tyra is] because all I know of her is literally when we are on set talking to each other in front of the cameras,” the supermodel said. “That is the only time she would speak to me.” As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, Paulina first revealed the news of their squabble during an appearance on the “Late Late Show” with Craig Ferguson earlier this week. “Listen, do you know why I am in Los Angeles?… Because I am looking for a job,” Paulina told Craig. “I was fired by ‘America’s Next Top Model’ on my birthday.”

Damn, Tyra. Ya wig on too tight? Can’t even speak to folks who work with you?

    very nice,, i heard many celebrities have a account on
    _____Meet Wea lthy com_____ “”"”"”, i.m doubt since i found her profile.. you can talk with them online, it’s awesome~~~

  • GIVEDADDYSOMESUGAR

    Oh well, when the boss says it’s over, you are done. Tyra pulled her out of obscurity so she should just be grateful for the opportunity and keep it moving.

  • Kay

    This show was dead after Danny and Jaslene.

  • DoReMi

    If she hadn’t been given the axe there may have been some credibility to what she’s saying but right now ol girl just sounds bitter.

    NEXT!

    As a professional black man who has been being block by others in the black community,I can believe this story.It’s possible that she might have a attitude but I can tell that tyra is caught up in her own hype because of the way she interviews her inner circle guests,on her talk show.This is a clear and ever growing case,of black forgetting were they come from. I have been calling them out on this for a while,and the reason I’m being blocked………….Steve Harvey “BLOCKER”

    If Heidi Klum had fired her ass, she probably wouldn’t have been talking sh*t. But it’s Tyra..a sista. Paulina is probably just mad because she now has to sit and wait for Tyra whereas she USED to be someone worth waiting for.

  • Kanye Lover All Dai

    I liked twiggy better anyway becasue paulina seems very naaty toward the girls

  • Romy

    @2am

    Exactly. These white models treat the black ones any kind of way they choose. But when a black model becomes a mogul, these whites chicks get panic attacks.

  • sasha

    I really didnt care for the way Paulina talked to the models , but Tyra I can believe it. She isnt all that she makes herself believe!!

  • luvgossip

    Tyra is pry a selfish beyotch, but if Paulina didn’t like that she was constantly late (who would?) then why didn’t she just quit on her own?

  • hateseveryone

    why the hell is it that whenever anything happens all of you ridiculous people have to make it about race? I’m starting to think that more regular people are creating the problem of racism, and not the actual racists.

    Paulina’s attitude to the models especially the black ones was so obvious last cycle she had to judge the challenge with the salsa dance and you clearly saw that Aminat won and she choice Celia who Tyra and the other judges later sent home on the same episode…she got what was coming to her

  • J’CAN-gal

    paulina got a lot of publicity,and the show needs a fresh face, so what i am sure she expected to be let go at some point depending on her contract, its business not personal.people just need to live their own lives and move on.

  • dont worry abt it

    plz paula or watever ur name is, u just sound salty cuz u got fired. Goodbye and good luck

  • Whut??

    Since when do the employees get to tell the boss what time to get to work? Better get that check and hush…

  • Miss Misha

    Damn six hours late EACH TIME??? Damn, Tyra! That’s not being the professional businesswoman you claim to be. I don’t care if you own the show or not, that’s some ghetto shit.

    And for the love of God, take that damn wig off!

  • Naomi.Is.Fierce

    that whole show needs to be axed, it’s really ran it’s course.

  • Mrs. A

    Top Model needs to go off now. And Tyra is very self absorbed. You can tell on her talk show how she always seems to make the topic about her, or how she can relate (when she really can’t).

  • Sim1

    Well, if she was getting a nice paycheck she should have just kept her mouth shut or found another gig. Thats what we, in the real world have to do. So she spoke out on the big boss – and got fired. Thats how the cookie crumbles! She wasnt so nice to the girl either..

  • antm##!

    well, we all know that Tyra is a busy person, i personally believe that Paulina should go off. I don’t understand why Twiggy was fired, she was perfect, and never insulted the girls and if they had a bad picture, then she would politely say it’s not a good picture. BRING TWIGGY BACK!With ♥

  • Cadence

    lmfo…this just made me like Tyra even more.

    Tyra is a mess. I remember hearing about Mr. Jay having issues with her too. They weren’t sure if he was going to come back to the show or not, a few seasons ago. But, I guess, he chose keeping a job over going against Ms. Banks.

    Sadly, I think Tyra’s issues have to do with being very insecure and being a huge opportunist. She tries to act like she’s done it all and that she’s above everything, but being a little humble really goes a long way, no matter how much fame and fortune you’ve racked up over the years.

    She’ll learn her lesson one day. And as they say, it’s mighty lonely at the top. And know that the people that you stepped on to get up there will be the same ones that you’ll end up needing on your way back down.

  • Leta354

    Tyra the tyrant – lol – as if ya’ll didn’t know that octo-forehead wasn’t squirrely

  • ukFUnKy

    i’m not the biggest tyra fan ..to be honest she gets on my nerves …. but end of the day its her show and she can do what the hell she wants to…. she she go get her own show and do what the hell she wants to.

    tyra seems mean but evidently she can afford to be mean!

  • that’s wazzup

    Paulina was one of my FAVORITE models back in the day (1980′s). I believe what she says… Tyra seems pretty fake.

    On Tyra’s talk show she plays all nice, bubbly, approachable, etc. I was in the audience of one of her tapings (when it filmed in Los Angeles)and if the camera was not rolling, Tyra would not say A SINGLE WORD TO THE AUDIENCE – we did not exist…. zero interatction with the audience. So I’m sure she threw ice at Paulina as well.

  • mmm

    Its hard for me to believe she was 6 hours late for a judging I think their jived well with each other. Paulina wanted to be like Janice but Janice did it in a different way. I didnt like Paulina from teh beginning but then I am getting tired of the show especially since the girls are preselected in a private interview not like what we see on TV. Again reality (rolling eyes) is fake.

  • Its no surprise, its the same thing Janice said. Tyra is always late and she never shows respect for the crew…

  • She’s Not Lying Tyra Banks Only Talks To You In Front Of The Camera

    She’s telling the truth I was on the show Tyra was my friend when the camera was rolling but afterwards she acted like she didn’t know me or anyone.

    She rude to her staff and she works them to death she’s a fake B*tch I know from first hand….. also Tyra is not as light as she appear on tv the stage is very lighted and the audience that makes her look very light but she’s darker than me. But she is a very pretty and tall woman but she’s fake.

  • She’s Not Lying Tyra Banks Only Talks To You In Front Of The Camera

    Re:Black Lady

    So that happen to you also see folks we not lying she’s fake….

  • hollywood

    Tyra has the black woman syndrome too many of us have: We GOTS to do it ALL: She gotta do the catwalk, try to sing, to photos like Nigel, have a talk show AND a network reality show. Jack of all Trades, master of none as they say. Of course she is gonna be 6 hours late. No focus.

  • She’s Not Lying Tyra Banks Only Talks To You In Front Of The Camera

    Yes your right she is a busy person I’ve seen her working like crazy she always working. But that doesn’t give her the right to treat like Sh*t. The only reason more people don’t expose her is because she makes them sign an agreement.

  • black lady

    she dont talk to nobody on that show. when its done and over she walks off and shes gone. its like why work for tyra banks? she wont even talk to you. what kinda boss is that.

  • cough up a lung where im from marcy son,been to many places,but inBKLYNZ OWN

    WHO CARES…….JUST WANTED TO SEE HOW MY NEW S/N LOOKS

  • nunya bizness

    The judges are probably quitting because they knew the show is RIGGED. Come’on terrible commerical, bad runway walk, and hair comes off and you win?!!

    Aminat was robbed!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I don’t think so

    For the record:

    Tyra Banks did not come up with the idea for ANTM. The idea for the show originally came from a model booker – not Tyra (I knew the model booker, but do not have permission from her to divulge her name so I will not). Tyra then became involved with the show as “the host”, helped to sell it to the network, and also came up with ideas for the show.

    Tyra now claims total credit for coming up with the idea for the show – and she did NOT come up with the original idea.

    This was also aired on E! True Hollywood Story of ANTM years ago when the show was in the third or fourth cycle.

  • chrisB SUCKS

    Tyra is repulsive and so blatantly phony.

  • LEESA

    WTF?

  • *QUIN*QUIN*

    Really

  • Doc

    she should bring Naomi Campbell as a judge.

  • GIVEDADDYSOMESUGAR

    Doc – you are so wrong. You know Tyra is still scared of Naomi.

  • I am who I am

    Paulina only liked the girls who looked like her on the show. Won’t miss her. They should bring back Janice. She was real & on-point.

    Paulina you are typical white person. Always wanting to run something. Complain when you ideas aren’t met. Tyra is a big business mogul, she don’t have time to talk to your washed up old ass.
