Tyra Banks reportedly isn’t pleased with how she’s utilized in Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model, an in-depth documentary released by Netflix this year. It was that displeasure that apparently prompted Banks to file suit against the streamer and others for multiple alleged offenses like breach of contract and false light. Since news of the suit broke, two former contestants from the reality competition series at the center of the doc have spoken out. And the two series alums didn’t mince words when sharing their takes.
Per reports, one of Banks’ key issues with the doc is that the “three-and-a-half-hour” interview she participated in for the show is only cut down to “16 minutes” across the three episodes. With that, Banks argues that the final edit of the doc misrepresents her, and her legal team also asserts that much of “accountability Ms. Banks took” for claims leveled at her by other series veterans was cut out. In addition to false light and breach of contract, Banks is also suing for alleged defamation by implication and false light.
