Harlem Native Ebony Haith Reflects on Life After ‘America’s Next Top Model’

NYC NOW

About this episode

Reality show America’s Next Top Model helped launch modeling careers in the early 2000s, but two decades later many viewers say the show has not aged well. A new Netflix documentary revisits some of the controversies surrounding the series and how contestants were treated. Harlem native and season one contestant Ebony Haith joins WNYC’s Janae Pierre to reflect on her experience on the show. Haith talks about growing up in Harlem, navigating the fashion industry as a Black model, and what she hopes the next generation of artists and performers takes from her story. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
