Show Notes
Milly, Alise, and Amanda are joined by Sarah Hartshorne, a writer and comedian who competed on Cycle 9 of “America’s Next Top Model.” Sarah describes being selected for the show and being told she was the “plus-size” contestant at size 8. She tells us the moment she realized it would be an intense experience and pulls back the curtain on the show’s signature elements. Then, she looks back at the show’s most problematic elements and how its intersection between the fashion industry and reality TV made it especially toxic.
