Tyra explains to Wetpaint that she just felt the show needed new blood and that she has other plans for her co-stars. I wonder if she’s taken into account that they might not want to participate, after uh, being fired from their main jobs.

I mean, they’re my guys. They’ve been there since the beginning of the show. But they’ll still be there because my partner [ANTM executive producer] Ken Mok and I, we have projects that we’re developing, and we’re a family, so it doesn’t end.”
WILL YOU WATCH THE SHOW WITHOUT TYRA’S “GUYS?” OR DO YOU THINK THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE END FOR ANTM?
