America's Next Top Model, hosted by Ms. Tyra Banks, is reality television based more on reality than script as many shows do now. Tyra Banks, America’s first black woman to land on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, came up with the concept of the show to inspire more woman to get out there and try for it just like she did. Tyra Banks takes woman of all ethnicities, cultures, and sizes and helps them achieve their dreams. Although she advertises the show to be much about the girls bettering themselves and modeling as themselves, Tyra Banks also uses her words to sculpt the up in coming models to act, look, and sound like every other model in the industry. Even so, Ms. Tyra Banks also uses each individual characteristics the girls hold separately to promote her look in front of the camera. America's Next Top Model is one reality show that truly holds the concept of reality close, even if it is a harsh truth the girls receive on screen.
