Tyra Banks has launched a defamation lawsuit in California against Netflix, accusing the streamer of recutting her interview in its Reality Check docuseries to falsely portray her as indifferent to a contestant's sexual assault allegation and uncaring toward a former colleague after his stroke.
For context, Reality Check, which premiered on Netflix in February, revisits the legacy of America's Next Top Model through a three-part series. Banks, who created and hosted the long‑running reality show, has faced years of online scrutiny over controversial moments and perceived cruelty towards contestants.
