At first I was like wtf is Tyra OK?
not her randomly barking on this girl just cuz she didn't cry at elimination
But then I remember everything that led up to this.
Tiffany's attitude definitely started to SHIFT as the competition went on
She was rolling her eyes at challenges , saying "every week this mess gets dumber and dumber " etc . And even refused to do challenges without even TRYING. Like girl, you're there. Why not try?
IMO Tiffany was SELF SABOTAGING. It reminds me of kwee Ja'carri Richardson ... who knew damn well that weed would show up in her system but still did it anyway. Then was like "oh well did the crime now punish meh! 🤷🏾♀️" Once she got caught.
Tiffany's grandmother gave up a LOT for her to be there . She let the lights in her house get turned off just so she could help her GET there.
I can see why Tyra was becoming increasingly frustrated with her , and I think that this elimination moment was tyras FINAL STRAW, as opposed to a random moment of her wanting to lash out at tiff.
Tyra literally brought up ALL the mess Tiffany was doing through the end of her stay there during the lashing . Which shows that this was def a BUILD UP of mess . Tyra was to the point where she couldn't be nice about it anymore .
I get it . She just wanted to SHAKE Tiffany a little . And teach her ACCOUNTABILITY. Yes Tyra may be a little coo coo for cocoa puffs, but she can definitely teach young girls about how to make it in life .
tbh she kinda deserved a lashing. To have your grandmother sitting in the dark in her own home just cuz she wanted to give you money to get to this competition instead paying her light bill, and for you to just throw it all away and give up ... I Can 100% see why Tyra said "LEARN FROM THIS."
