  • Top Model Judge Paulina Porizkova Gets Fired | Today's News: Our Take | 5/13/2009

    America's Next Top Model judge Paulina Porizkova says she's been fired from the reality competition series.

    Only one night before the Season 12 finale of America's Next Top Model (Wednesday at 8 pm/ET on CW), Porizkova told late night host Craig Ferguson she was axed — on her birthday, no less.

    "Listen, do you know why I am in Los Angeles ... because I am looking for a job because I was fired by America's Next Top Model on my birthday," said Porizkova.

    So why did the model, who replaced model Twiggy in Season 10, get the boot?

  • Cheers: Top Model's Big Winner | Cheers & Jeers | 5/15/2008
    Cheers to Tyra Banks for finally putting her money where her mouth is and picking a full-figured winner of America's Next Top Model. It only took ten cycles to do it, but there's no denying Whitney deserved the title, especially considering her final competition: the deeply vapid Anya. (Tyra said she looked like a mannequin and meant it as a compliment; Paulina Porizkova said she looked dumb and didn't.) Whitney owned the runway with energy and personality to spare.

  • Jeers: Top Model Madness! | Cheers & Jeers | 4/3/2008
    Jeers to America's Next Top Model for kicking off Claire. For what reason exactly — because she was too consistent? True, she was consistently the best! But maybe the married mom didn't create enough drama for Tyra Banks and Co. So they give her the boot and keep Lauren, whom Paulina Porizkova damned with the faint praise that she was "a little less Frankenstein-y" this week? And don't get me started on that not-so-hot mess Dominique. Sorry, Ty-Ty: This may be my last Top Model "go-see."• For more Cheers & Jeers, check out the new vodcast.• Share your own raves and rants about other shows on the Reader Cheers & Jeers discussion board.• We may feature your Cheer or Jeer on TVGuide.com or in TV Guide magazine! read more

TV Guide: Were you a fan of America's Next Top Model before joining the show?Paulina Porizkova: I watched the marathons on VH1 or MTV. Last season I became enamored of Heather, the girl with Asperger's syndrome. Once she was voted off, I didn't watch anymore. TV Guide: Do you think you would have been a good Top Model contestant?Porizkova: At 18, I would have been voted off the show because of my attitude. I'd have been up there going, "Yeah, I don't care about this show, and I don't care about modeling." And they would have said, "Bye-bye." TV Guide: How are you different from the show' read more
