With 22 cycles of America's Next Top Model under her designer belt, Tyra Banks has definitely had her fair share of glorious moments, from the first smize to last year's final Ty-overs (not to mention how she unflinchingly reinvents the English language in new ways each cycle).
Below, our picks for the most epically, well, Tyra moments in Antm history.
9. When Tyra shut down Denzel's homophobia in cycle 21.
After bad boy Denzel Wells proclaimed he would be embarrassed to lose the competition to a "dude who wears heels" (i.e. competitor Will Jardell), Tyra quickly took him down, making it...

Tyra Banks truly is a miracle worker. First she helped Cycle 12 contestant Isis King fulfill her dream of gender reassignment. And now, it seems, her healing presence has helped to restore a Cycle 12 aspirant's fertility. America's Next Top Model contestant Tahlia Brookins appeared on The Tyra Banks Show on Wednesday to inform her former mentor that she's pregnant, despite the fact that she'd been told several times in the past that she would never conceive.

Allison. Oh, queen of the sea. “The judges see one face week after week after week," Tyra has said. According to Celia, all Allison needs to do is think about sex. Do anchovies have sex? Can someone look that up for me while I continue recapping Wednesday's (April 15) episode of "America's Next Top Model"? [Recap after the break...] There are only seven girls left now that sad sack Tahlia has gone home. She was a burn victim, yes, but she sure wasn’t a model.

One more girl is sent home on "America's Next Top Model". Sandra was the last to be called in the judging room, after standing side by side to Celia. Tyra Banks reasoned that Sandra has been taking "profile shots" all throughout the competition and the last one was not that great.
Sandra, not a favorite within her mates, was hugged on her way out and Tyra advised her to work on the poses. The 19-year-old was mad that she was sent home and vowed to keep modeling after the show because she believed she has a personality.
In the sixth week, the girls were challenged by making expressions with their faces. Jay Manuel brought his friend Beth Stern to guide the models in this session. Sandra in particular did not impress Jay who thought that she was falling out of the competition. Natalia won the challenge and she got an...

It’s episode three of the 12th cycle of "America’s Next Top Model"! Lost yet? See here, contestant Teyona: It’s episode three, and you Still have a skanky, slimy looking weave.

Here’s another early revelation: Tahlia, who is a burn victim and is covered with scars, doesn’t have self-confidence. I am shocked, just utterly shocked. Just give me a minute here.
