Paulina Porizkova Fired From ‘America’s Next Top Model’

Tyra Banks recently lost about 100lbs. How? Simple: she fired former super model Paulina Porizkova from ‘America’s Next Top Model’.

Porizkova revealed on ‘The Late Show’ with Craig Ferguson that she was currently in Los Angeles looking for a job after receiving the axe from the model search reality series.

Via RealityTVWorld:

“The reason I was fired, just to be fair here, the reason I was told I was fired was because, it seemed that ‘America’s Next Top Model’ had gotten too fat and they needed to cut some fat and the fat was me.”

Ouch.

Porizkova would not reveal who actually fired her but did inform the audience her sacking took place via a telephone call on her 44th birthday.

Apparently, Porizkova has a bit of an ego problem, and we all know there is only room for three egos on the set of America’s Next Top Model…and they all belong to Tyra.

“So I figured it was either that — I think that was a nice way of putting it and it could have been either that or my gigantic huge ego, which I wasn’t aware of before I was told by the producers that I have an ego problem.”

Porizkova joins other former models Twiggy and Janice Dickenson on the menu of the Tyra Banks Model Roadkill Café.
