Tyra Banks is holding auditions for ANTM again, even after the cattle run that went down last month:

Supermodel Tyra Banks is booking another Manhattan cattle call for her reality TV show “America’s Next Top Model” – and vowing to prevent a repeat of an ugly stampede of beauties. The former Victoria’s Secret model and talk-show diva has picked April 11 for a redux of the tryouts marred last month by a panic-induced riot that sent six girls to the hospital….…Dionne Sherrae, 24, of the Bronx, whose shoulder was dislocated in the March 14 melee outside the Park Central Hotel on W. 55th St., said “thanks but no thanks.” “I went there thinking that I’d get a shot at my dream and it was definitely taken away from me,” said Sherrae, who made it to the door of the auditions when the stampede broke out.

“I don’t want to get played again,” said Sherrae, a physical therapy assistant, adding that she’s still traumatized from nearly getting trampled. Banks and producers of her CW network show are counting on a list of stringent “audition rules and guidelines” to curb the possibility of another catwalk calamity. The take-two screen testing was news to the cops. An NYPD spokesman said the department has not received any official notice from the organizers that they are planning another event.

The open call for those who didn’t get to tryout last time will again be restricted to would-be models 5-feet-7 or shorter and ages 18 to 27. The new rules for auditioning, include:

- A ban on lining up overnight or prior to the 6 a.m. registration.

- Only women applying will be permitted in line.

- Hopefuls younger than 18 will be allowed just one guardian to accompany them.

- Color-coded wristbands will be required to coordinate with the scheduling of auditions.

- A crackdown on people cutting in line or loitering around before and after their tryout.

A location for the event has yet to be reserved. A spokesman for the show said the venue will be announced later this week on www.cwtv.com.

Damn, Tyra wont be happy till someones esophagus is pierced by a Manolo. SMH.

Tyra needs to have a team working the line to immediately eliminate those chicks who don’t stand a snowball’s chance in hell of being ANTM. I mean really, some of those girls are not even cute, not model material at all. While having good self-esteem is healthy, to be utterly delusional…not so much! Just do ‘em a favor, dismiss them from the line and cut down your risk of having an unneccessarily large crowd.

Oh please. Last year, American Idol held auditions in Philly, and 20,000 deluded ***** *****kas who thought they could sing, showed up. 99.9999% of them got a 15-SECOND audition, until the judges yelled ‘NEXT’.

Tyra “Head Quarters” Banks will hold auditions and 20,000 fools who think they are fine will show up, and if the damn fools don’t riot, 99.9999% will get to strut for 10 SECONDS until the judges yell “NEXT”.

This is a country of deluded, egotistical fools. IT ain’t surprising. Go to the club, and watch all those 200 lb. *****es look down their noses at a brother who does blue collar work, as if some dude making 200K in some office will want their lard *****es.

Deluded fools.
