Adrianne Curry Reveals the Horrifying Truth of Her ‘America’s Next Top Model’ Makeover

Reality show America’s Next Top Model first debuted in 2003, and over the years, audiences watched host Tyra Banks and her minions give aspiring models drastic makeovers. Sometimes career-making, sometimes cringe-inducing, but always guaranteed to stir up drama on and off the runway.

Fans have watched wannabe models receive hair extensions, only for them to be pulled out after hours in the salon chair. They watched long-haired beauties cry after being forced to get pixie cuts. And they watched competitors deal with hours of burning scalps, chemical fumes, and blunt Tyra-isms, all for a makeover that was supposed to take them to the “next level.”
