This season of “Dancing With The Stars” has been wrought with controversy ever since Tom Bergeron, who had hosted the show since it premiered back in 2005, was fired and replaced by supermodel Tyra Banks. Since taking over as host and executive producer of “Dancing With The Stars,” Banks has made a series of mistakes that have led to fans calling for her to be fired and replaced by Bergeron.
Now, Banks is speaking out to reveal yet anther mistake that she made as host that fans may have missed.
“I think it was the third or fourth episode, I walk out and my hand is on my back and I was holding my dress together,” Banks, 46, told Entertainment Tonight [1]. “It was not zipped up! And I did not have on any of my jewelry.”
“Then, you’ll notice, a couple of acts later my hand is down, I’m zipped up and I have on jewelry,” she added.
Banks went on to explain that there are lots of rules she must follow when it comes to what she wears on the show.
“There’s certain rules that I have. You have to play to your strengths, so I play to making sure that the waist is snatched — because, if it’s not, I’m well-endowed naturally and it can look a little bit like a mumu,” Banks explained. “I have very broad shoulders and sometimes the dress doesn’t really cover the shoulder… so it’s got to be wide enough up here.”
“Can’t have satin on the boobies, on the tummy or on the booty,” she continued. “Satin on my booty, shows cellulite, satin on my boobies on TV makes the size they already are ten times bigger. So there’s all these [things to remember], like a checklist.”
This comes weeks after fans called for Banks to be fired and Bergeron to be brought back as host after she botched an elimination by declaring the wrong couple as safe in one of the early weeks of the show.
“Bring them back!!!!” one fan tweeted [2]. “Tom wouldn’t have screwed up!!!!!!#DWTS you guys ruin a good things by letting go the real hosts they had chemistry. Tyra just pulled a Steve Harvey.”
“Maybe if Tyra didn’t talk so much she wouldn’t have to RUSH the elimination #DWTS,” another fan added, with a third writing, “DWTS. Please bring back Tom Bergeron and Erin Andrews. Tyra Banks sucks, no personality, all about her wardrobe! Downhill this season.”
