Rebecca Hardy, the leggy brunette who won the second cycle of Canada’s Next Top Model, has been a busy girl since taking the crown two years ago. She spared a minute during Toronto Fashion week to talk to Dose.ca.

Rebecca talks about how much her life has changed since the big win, how she feels about Meaghan Waller, the winner of Cycle 3,and what surprises her most about the fashion world. While Rebecca was repeatedly told about the long hours she’d have to put in as a working model, it didn’t hit home until she was traveling all over the world:

I would have to go back to the long hours, especially when travelling. People don’t understand that you’re on a plane to Milan, you get off your plane and you’re given a map and you have to go to 12 castings and figure it out. People don’t understand how difficult that can be, especially when there’s language barriers. It’s very difficult and that’s one of the things I found extremely, extremely hard. But diet and exercise really help with that.

I really liked Rebecca and am glad to see she’s having a busy and successful career. You can read the entire interview at Dose.ca!

Tyra Banks was recently profiled in Ocean Drive magazine. In the interview, she talks about how her talk show is growing, her love of make-up and showhouses, her new fitness regime and more.

She explains why the ANTM makeovers are now called Ty-overs (which I think is seriously stupid). “For America’s Next Top Model we’re now calling makeovers “Ty-overs” because they are my vision of what the girls should look like,” she said.

You can read the entire interview here. There’s also a slideshow with some new photos of Tyra. She looks good!

In a recent episode America’s Next Top Model, the girls got interview lessons and did their first-ever CoverGirl commercial. Erin had a complete meltdown, but it was Kara who got the boot.

Tyra Banks dressed up as reality star and recent America’s Next Top Model judge Kim Kardashian for Halloween. The costume is hilarious, as Tyra attached oversized cardboard versions of Khloe and Kourtney to her back and tried to best to talk just like Kim. I’m impressed Tyra.

What were you for Halloween?

Nest week on America’s Next Top Model, the girls go cliff diving and look death in the face. I do think the preview make the photo shoot overly dramatic, but I’m hoping it’s going to bring us some drama!

This week’s Top Model in Action was statuesque beauty Natalie Pack from Cycle 12. She currently lives in Los Angeles and is signed with Ford Models.

I liked Natalie’s look and am glad to see she’s getting work. However, I can’t help but wonder if it’s premature for her to be getting a TMIA segment. What do you think?

I chatted with the most recent America’s Next Top Model eliminee, 21-year-old math nerd Brittany Market. Brittany talked about her surprising elimination, her surprising best friend and lots more!

In last night’s episode of America’s Next Top Model, each girl portrayed the coming together of two different races, in honor of Hawaii’s diverse history.

This photo shoot was controversial at best, offensive at worst. What did you think?

Here are the photos, in call out order.
