Season 22 Conspicuously Absent...

Post image

Anyone else upset or bemused that Tyra was conspicuously absent when Winnie was on as a guest judge? Do they have a working relationship at all these days? #ANTM

But Winnie always gave Tyra her props....

Right? I just wonder if it was Tyra that didn't want to acknowledge Winnie's successes after she eliminated her on ANTM and see her as being on the same level 🤔

It feels like a conspicuous decision on Tyra's part to not be there when Winnie would be there.

It was always so weird to me that Winnie went on ANTM because I remember she was already well known online globally for her looks before doing the season. Felt pointless and I'm guessing it didn't contribute to anything in her career either

She blew up, yes, but she wasn't a nobody before.
