I know that you are known for setting & starting new trends, but when is there going to be an ANTM for 13-16 years of age? You're my role model & you've inspired me soooo much to be a model too!-on side of being a singer because I just HAVE to get record deal;I'm the next best thing. Are you going to mention this on your show? Bye, Tyra!

Hi Tyra! I just wanted to say that I am a big fan and look up to you. I think it's so great that you are having a Top Model cycle for women under 5' 7''. I know that I'm only 13, but I don't think I will get any taller that 4' 11 1/2'' since I have Crhons Disease. I always thought that taller girls were more beautiful because only taller girls could be models, but I now see that beauty comes in diffrent shapes and sizes. You really had an impact on how I look at my hight and I thank you for that. ♥Sarah

Hi Tyra, this is Clarissa I was wondering if you were going to put new casting up since all the ones listed above have passed. I have always wanted to be a model but I am only 5'1 and when I heard you were changing the requirements for under 5'7 I knew that this was a calling for me. Please make new casting for all the shorty's out there. You don't know how much I would appreciate this!

Hi Trya, This is Clarissa I was wondering if you were having any other castings than the ones listed above since those have already passed. I have always wanted to model but I am only 5'1 and when I heard about the requirements of under 5'7 I knew that this calling was for me! Please make another casting for under 5'7!

Hey Tyra, I'm 13 turning 14 this year. I'v always wanted to be a top model and when i am not watching your show i 'm out practicing the runway in my living room. It's not really there but i act like it is. And it's at the end of the school year. It would be my dream come true if i went on your show. I even practice in the mirror with my poses. And i practice with my face and i work on my eye to look like yours. I have you as my back ground, So if you could say yes i would be so happy my head would just pop off my head and start rolling down the floor. P.S. I don't get home sick sure i miss home but that's it. If i got picked i would do my hardist and go to the end!!!

Hi Tyra!! My name is Emma, and I just recently turned 15. When I was a little, I love being in the spotlight and I've always wondered if I should model or become a singer. Ever since then I've been practicing poses, walking, and sing. But you insired me so much, I've decided to concentrat on modeling. I'm soo excited for the antm for short people like me. But my concern is that how could I try out for modeling if I live soo far from America? Also I do want study and to go to university or collage but I was wondering if antm would be still be avalable by the time I graduate. I'm sorry that this message so long but I have one more questions to ask you. I ussually watch antm, go on seven.com, etc, to study modeling. But where I live is at a small island and in such a small village so I don't meet new people often. How do I get rid of the shyness in me?? I really want to model. And I'm going to try my best to reach my goal. Thank you for reading and it would be great if I get a reply.

hello Tyra!!! I am turning 17 on the 11 of May! I am so excited to even be posting a comment to you. You ARE my favorite person(besides my family and God) that i absolutly love to watch on telivision. Americas Next Top Model is my favorite show. i absolutly adore it. When i was in the 6th grade i desided i wanted to be a model. Ever since then i have been stuck with wanting to be a model. So when i turn 17, I am going to try out for your show. If God agrees, see ya then:)!
