Nigel Barker quotes from America's Next Top Model

Tyra

Before we start the judging, I have to say that everybody looks absolutely lovely with their makeovers. But, I heard a little bird tell me that there was a fake list of makeovers that somebody in your group made.

Nigel

[chuckles] Brilliant!

Tyra

So who made up that list?

Ann?!

It was Ann's idea!

Tyra

Alright.

Damn!

Ann Ward

[on how people used to treat her] All these comments about being too tall, or just being not normal—

Nigel Barker

Guess what? You're not normal. You're America's Next Top Model.

Tyra Banks

We've reached a decision.

André Leon Talley

We've reached a decision.

Nigel Barker

No, we haven't!

André Leon Talley

Yes, we have!

Nigel Barker

No, we have not!

Tyra Banks

Yes, we have!

Nigel Barker

No, we haven't!

Nigel Barker

[to Jaclyn Poole] What are you thinking about right now?

Jaclyn Poole

[to Nigel Barker] Beating the crap out of breast cancer!

Nigel Barker

[to Alexandria] Something interesting happened that I wanted to bring up. There was this sort of extraordinary performance between you and Brittani. What was that about?

We all kind of think that...as far as a role model goes, you really chose the wrong spokesperson because...we see the true Alexandria.

Nigel Barker

Well, as far as being a role model is concerned, to be that outspoken at a photoshoot, in front of the photographer, in front of the clients by the way, Ford were there, was extremely unprofessional. There is a reason why we don't know all of Alexandria's business. It's because what you do at home...is what you do at home. So, it's worth bearing that in mind. 'Cause now, I...you know, I have a different idea about you.

That's fine.

Tyra Banks

Brittani, why in front of the client?

I didn't confront her! I wasn't like, "Oh, you didn't deserve to win!" I didn't say that about her!

Yes, you did.

I was talking with them, and she overheard and I...

Tyra

But the client heard. So...

And I apologize if I didn't hear. We were talking quietly, and Alexandria said, like, "I'm right here, I can hear you." I understand it was the—[starts sobbing] the wrong time, and I just feel horrible...that I made myself look like a bad person, because of how I felt about her, and I'm just...so mad at myself for letting her do this to me!

Tyra

Brittani, we're talking about role models, right?

[to Tyra] Yeah.

Tyra

In terms of sportsmanship, what you have done is...probably one of the weakest things that a role model could do, no matter what you feel inside. If you think somebody else is getting something that they don't deserve, you shut your lips, especially in front of a client. This is a business. You have to respect the client, you have to respect your co-workers, and you have to respect yourself. [Brittani suddenly walks out of the judging panel crying]

I think everyone should be given a second chance. I vote for Brittani to stay.

I vote for Brittani to stay.

Nigel Barker

I vote for Brittani to stay.

Tyra

I don't agree with you guys.

Tyra

[to Nigel Barker, Andre and Jay Manuel] Well we're back in Los Angeles on the Top Model set and we're here for a special finale that's being conducted under unusual circumstances.

Nigel Barker

[to Tyra, Andre and Jay Manuel] It turns out, our production team and the network learned information from Angelea that disqualifies her from the competition.

[to Nigel Barker] So what does that mean?

Nigel Barker

[to Tyra, Andre and Jay Manuel] Well it means we're now going to do our final judging with the remaining two girls, and in the interest of fairness, the producers, and the network thought it best to evaluate Allison and Lisa on their own without the added competition of Angelea.

Tyra

Up next, Louise. Hello, Louise.

Hello!

Tyra

Okay. Here is the best shot that you chose.

Nigel

Huh. [to Louise] For me, you look strong. You look tough, but you're very mean.

[to Nigel] Mean?!

Nigel

[to Louise] Mean.

I feel like I can't win!

I think you need put some gratitude in your attitude, girl.

Nigel

I know you shake your head a lot, you disagree a lot. But it is also potentially good when you are being critiqued to take it in with charm.

My experience with you on the set was that you were very condescending and rude to me, which I don't really care about.

[to Kelly] No, no, no. You were rude to me!

[pause] Okay, I'm done talking to you now.

Fine.

Tyra

You just have a problem with authority.

I don't do well with rude people.

Tyra

You are a model, this is a publicist. Do you understand that?

Yeah, I do.

Tyra

There is a rank. I'm giving you a very tough lesson in how to get your career to the next level!

I think it's so important, Louise. It's one of the best things you can possibly do, and... [laughs] You're shaking your head, "No!" I'm actually saying...

No!

Tyra

Louise, why are you shaking your head?

[bleep] this! No! [to Alisha, who tries to stop her from leaving] No, get out of my way!

Please!

No! No!

Tyra

Let her go. It's okay.

I never [bleep] agreed to all of this!

Tyra

[to the girls] It's okay, ladies.
