DWTS host Tyra Banks’ wildest show outfits revealed as she DEFENDS dress fans compared to a Jurassic Park dinosaur
DWTS host Tyra Banks' wildest show outfits on display after she defended her outfit choice from Monday's episode that fans compared to a Jurassic Park dinosaur.
The supermodel has donned some outrageous looks during her time as host of the celebrity dance competition.
Fans couldn't help but post their opinions on social media, with some equating the to the dilophosaurus that was featured in the 1993 film, Jurassic Park.
Others thought the sleeves resembled handheld paper fans while adding it looked “tacky.”
One person asked: “Wow why does Tyra's stylist hate her? What in the paper fans is she wearing?”
While a second questioned: “I’m sorry, but my first thought when I saw Tyra in this dress was, ‘why is she dressed like a period blood clot?’
“Oh Lord! That fan dress that Tyra has on is not only ugly, but tacky as well. The best part of it was the color,” a third insisted.
A fourth fired off: “I hope someone tells Tyra to stop wearing this foolishness…she’s taking the attention from the dancers…we should not be tweeting about her bad wardrobe choices.”
Tyra stood up for the unpopular dress in an interview with E!'s Daily Pop saying: "There's a base of that dress. It looks like a normal, beautiful dress from the '90s.
"Then I go on the stage in front of the audience and everybody, and I put on the wing thing. And everybody was like, 'Oh!' because they thought the first thing was the normal dress," she continued.
Tyra sported the infamous gown for the show's Icon Night, which had the contestants dress up as legends.
Another fan added: "Is tyra dressed as knock off jlo for icon night?"
The criticisms continued as another person wrote: "Not Tyra in this JLo Versace-lookin’ dress."
The TV host didn't let critics get her down as she stepped out in the following week, this time being compared to a "feather duster."
The former ANTM host was clearly a fan of her outfit, tweeting on the night: "Sneaking up on you with those sneakers under my couture baby blue dress."
Viewers weren't so impressed, however, likening the garment to everything from a loofah to a piece of lint.
One tweeted: "Exactly how much dryer lint did it TAKE to make Tyra Banks’ dress at the opening of the show?"
The supermodel first landed the role for season 29, as she and Erin Andrews.
However, the TV personality as they bashed her for "not preparing" for the role.
Viewers called her an "epic failure" as ratings reached a lower-than-usual level.
