Tyra keeps talking about ANTM launching their CAREERS. The truth is, you can't have a career as JUST a fashion model. Unless you KILLED IT in your late teens/early 20s and spent VERY wisely, at some point in your life, you're going to have to do something else. Even Camille was talking on this episode about models not making as much as they used to, and having trouble paying her bills. I can't fault Tyra for trying to set them up for better things than that.

Adriana Lima
Selita Ebanks
Doutzen

Chanel Iman
Of course, since I watch this show religiously, I may not be the most representative person lol
How about teaching them how to photograph? Direct? Host? I also think it's good that Tyra is trying to get them to do more than just look pretty, but judging someone because she flubbed a line on a medical show is stupid.
I remember a few years back when they had to act like they were on the red carpet and read names off of a teleprompter. THAT makes sense. If you don't know YSL, D+G, Gucci, etc, then you probably don't need to be in that industry. However, if you aren't familiar with barbiturates, that shouldn't make you a failure as a model.
ETA: I think Lisa has an interesting personality that lends itself to comedy/acting, but if that's the path that she wants to take, then she should be a comedian/actress. If you want to be a model, then dammit, you need to model.
