Whilst there’s been a lot of talk about Tyra’s tyranny on ANTM in recent years, there was absolutely a specific type of regulation, silencing and policing that was directed towards Black women on the show, and dark skinned Black women in particular. https://t.co/oXvM6FYAvW

Now, CelebNMusi247.com reports that Tyra Banks breaks her silence about the ‘Insensitive’ ‘America’s Next Top Model’ clip surfacing!
Danielle “Dani” Evans posted the video about the incident with Tyra Banks:
My truth – This video isn’t made for unsolicited advice, words, or paragraphs on how YOU would have handled the situation. I’m speaking MY truth aside from anyone’s opinions, beliefs, or input. I chose to use my own platform to speak so I have full control over my narrative. Watch until the very end to understand the purpose as to why I took time to even address the matter.
The supermodel is seen talking to contestant Danielle “Dani” Evans about the gap in her tooth.
Banks asks the contestant in the clip, who answers:
Do you really think you can have a Cover Girl contract with a gap in your mouth? Yes, why not? This is all people see.
Banks tells the aspiring model, while sticking her fingers on her front teeth.
It’s not marketable.
In a new tweet, Banks has acknowledged the backlash, admitted to making some “really off” remarks during her judging days.
She admits her wrongs on Friday (May 8) saying:
[I’ve] been seeing the posts about the insensitivity of some past ANTM moments and I agree with you. Looking back, those were some really off choices. [I] appreciate your honest feedback and am sending so much love and virtual hugs.
