❤ LISA FROM THE FIRST SEASON BECAUSE OF HER BEAUTY & ✨️ 🎉❤ PERSONALITY❣️ 😘 💯
Sloan....can I be your grandma (I am 74)....I just love you so much , you are such a lovely person and so talented and kind. Lisa is a wonderful young lady who really is powerful as she fights the evil demons around all of us. I am so glad she found her prince charming. By the way your dog is just too scrumptuous. He is really pretty and sweet just like his daddy. My Valentino would adore being on camera for a podcast, he is very impressed with himself....sadly he has gone blind but we still get around and he goes absolutely everywhere with me. Blessings to you Sloan....may your good fortune grow and grow.
😊
I did an audition for this show and got accepted. I was 21 and worried about being stuck in a house with annoying girls. I thought I'd lose it and have some terrible moment filmed, and ruin my future career as a doctor (which I am now). I am SO glad I declined to go on this show.
So happy and relieved to read this!!!
Omggg ur a queen
You dodged a bullet, Dr. Shelbie!
Are you the doctor contestant from cycle 6
Good call!!! I like that you were thinking ahead
The fact that the NDA contract expires at the statute if limitations in the law tells me everything about Top Model. Wow. My jaw dropped with that. Its absolutely intentional and they were probably terrible because they literally could get away with it.
just so you know, it's still not legal and an NDA does not protect a person committing crimes, they're still crimes.
You can report crimes to police despite an NDA. Those contracts don’t protect illegal acts. They’re used as an intimidation tactic to make people think they can’t report though.
@@minimousemichelle3836 I was thinking exactly the same thing when I was watching this!! The NDA does not supersede the law. It's a shame this lady didn't realise or know this.
Except if you do something illegal the nda doesn't matter and you can speak out.
🙏🏽Sending Strength, Protection, Love & Continued Healing, Lisa ❤
Saw her at the Walgreens on sunset and western and I was so caught off guard that I yelled hey!!! Smiling back she enthusiastically said "hey" with the same energy. I really appreciated it. I think she was holding her baby too.
She's so sweet!
Even as a child, I could see that Lisa was genuine. Every time she was on air. I love her for exposing the machine on ANTM.
imagine being this stupid to believe her
same!!
Sloan is such a good interviewer you can tell he’s ACTUALLY listening and asks follow up questions accordingly - he’s not just going off a list. I wish he was my friend irl 🥺🧡
YES!! He’s a great interviewer!!! Lol, like the opposite of Ethan Klein.
Right?! Lol I agree! Bless Ethan’s heart 😅
@@jaegonzales9137 what’s funny is all Ethan needs to do is LISTEN! But that’s not a skill everyone has.. 😅
This is beyond illegal. These production people should be prosecuted for the psychological abuse!!🤬
I definitely like his interview style more than his other vids!
It's so beautiful to see the daughter of a narcissistic mother stand up for herself 🙏💕
I didn't know she have a narcissistic mother before! Love to see her speak up about it. My mother's a narc too
@@linnflame I'm opening my eyes to my own mother right now. I appreciate the effort it takes to separate from such an important bond. It's not easy. We need all the support we can get 💕🤗
@@linnflamemine too! Jeez there’s a lot of them out there
@@linnflame mine too:)
In my opinion, when any narcissists become a parent, there's a very large possibility their children will also be highly narcissistic or an empath...
My mom is a narcissist & has been my whole life. I learned that I was co-dependent about 20 years ago. But I did not know what a narcissist was until I'd guessed tween 5-10 years
She is an intellectual woman. It is horrid they framed her as the villain to this very day just because she knew what they were truly doing. And she still has the courage to speak up in public? MAD RESPECT for her! And I am so glad she found the love of her life that will be forever on her side❤
She presents herself as innocent little victim though. She could only look as bad as what she gave them. She was a bit obnoxious. It wasn't just production that made the other girls not like her.
@JLD Reactions take whatever you see bro. I just feel bad for the horrible things they did to exploit her and all the other girls.
P. Knbff gf u kv pl we
@@JLDReactions STOP!!
@@MariNa-tl8pd Stop what? Being the voice reason amongst a bunch of bandwagoners? Not saying everything the show did was right, but I definitely don't think the girls didn't like her simply because of the producers. Lisa was a bit obnoxious.
The gaslighting in the show went right under our noses. When I re-watch, I literally see how intense it is and I can’t even IMAGINEEEEE what went on behind the scenes.
I am glad someone is speaking up about it and is not afraid to confront it. Kudos to you, Lisa! ✨
We were just too young to understand unfortunately :( but nowadays the only views top model gets from me is when it’s being exposed on CZcams
I will NEVER forget how Tyra and the producers manipulated this girl into WIDENING the gap in her teeth to make her look "unique" despite her obviously being uncomfortable and hesitant with the idea.
she's the best baddie of them all
Wow I totally believed the “crazy Lisa” narrative from the show, this blows my mind how she’s still dismissed and silenced by people trying to continue that narrative. Good for her for speaking out! She’s absolutely lovely.
I did as well because I was so young. I thought it was so real.
Yeah cause she's still playing a victim to stay relevant
Yes. I remember talking with people the day after every episode aired and thinking Lisa is an alcoholic and that she needed help. It was so early on with reality tv I really believed it.
I’m disgusted that I was led to believe these things about a woman who was being manipulated the entire time.
@@daniburke9452how is she playing a victim, when she is one? Like, how does that work..?
It’s funny how people throw that around, as if victims generally receive empathy and compassion. Typically, they don’t. So why would someone want to play as one? It takes a lot of strength to call out corporate nonsense. Partly because of dismissive people like you
Do you feel like siding with predators gives you protection? It doesn’t, they’ll eventually turn on you too
@@daniburke9452u❤ki❤😂ut❤😅😅😅😅duio😅bbbb
This is BEYOND illegal. All these producers should be prosecuted for this abuse.😡
It’s sad because Tyra was bullied when she started out as a model and then she became the biggest bully of them all.🤯🥺
Oh 1000%. STRAIGHT TO JAIL. There were underage girls on the show without a clearance that they can handle the pressure, DRINKING, getting emotionally and mentally abused by the production ... TYRA HAS SOME EXPLAINING TO DO. And not out of her ass I may add. Cause everything she says, is bullshit.
Tyra alone should be held accountable for it all. Everyone else unfortunately had to go down with her. Aka, the production.
yeah, a NDA isnt for covering up CRIMES. we need people to speak up!
those girls knew what they were getting themselves into, they signed up for a reality show, now they all want to victimize themselves for fame. SMH if girls arent mentally stable, they shouldnt be in the modelling industry when rejection is part of it.
@@quinnm.3127True! So agree with you! NDA's purpose is to protect ppl & info. Sadly, they have been used by gross ppl to cover up crimes for so long. But we're seeing so much truth coming out. Dude, I did modeling in Houston, Tx when ANTM came out...and I wanted to be on that show! The only reason I didn't 'try out' was bc I didn't want to leave my family, pet, bf, and my friends. 😮😮😮
I seriously question all the bullying Tyra talks about. Who’s to say she wasn’t fully part of it herself but she likes to paint herself as an outsider?
I met Lisa once very briefly, I was working a casting session and checked her in, I highly doubt she would remember me. She was very professional and nice to everyone she spoke with, I remember thinking she was so different irl than what I expected from antm cycle 5 to the point i felt she had been set up to look bad bc this was a chill, cool person, very pretty and radiant in person and SO tall! She is very approachable and friendly and I wish her the best! Just sharing ❤️
I love how descriptive, articulate and expressive Lisa is. Despite all the trauma she still shines like the star she is ✨
She's 😎 awesome
I could listen to Lisa talk for hours about this stuff and I’m so glad she’s still speaking out even though there are many people who do not want her to. She’s so brave and so awesome for using her voice!
Same. I really think this could've been a double episode like Alexa Nicolas' was. I can see Lisa has SO much to get off her chest about this abuse.
I love Lisa....but there's a reason why Laura cycle 13 and 17 blocked Lisa.
@@RecoveringChristian Yeah Sounds like Laura is still sipping the kool aide. 😂 not everyone has to get along and be besties and doesnt mean either one are bad people.
@@piperatoms5926 Lisa goes after Laura's daughter. Laura, Allison, and others then block her.
You: Lisa's not a bad person, Laura drinks the kool-aid
@@RecoveringChristian what do you mean she ‘goes after’ ?
I have only watched this interview and I do not like how she talks about the girls and that she gives the names of the girls when explaining how they were abused but at the same time someone has to speak up. What did she say about Laura’s daughter?
I remember there was a girl who’s friend died when she was in the show and she went through some awful stuff too. They mistreated her so bad… So sad
Yes the cemetery shoot, where she had to be INSIDE an open grave... I couldn't believe it
Yes, I remember that, and the dude said something like, "well, your friend would want you to suck it up and do this cemetery grave challenge and win." Cause the girl was going to quit the show because she was still grieving her friend passing, and disgusting production was like, nope, we need her to stay because her mental suffering makes great TV, tell her whatever you need so that she doesn't leave etc etc. Truly horrific, vile and evil. My heart goes out to all those models who had to suffer under ANTM production. 💜🤝
The runner up from cycle 4?
Isn’t this her?
@@BougieBlue No, that was Jael, who sadly passed away.
The tears she held back when she mentioned attempting twice broke my heart no other girl should go through what she endured
You also can’t find the Tyra banks show where they ambushed Lisa too.
Lisa, You’re a warrior and love the honesty and dignity you display. I’m so sorry for all of the wrong done to you and love that you have become such a healed and savvy talented businesswoman
It’s sad this show was allowed to exist for so long knowing and seeing how toxic it is and what a vile person Tyra is.
Word.
A show based on looks? You're surprised at how toxic it is? Nearly every child from every 80's sitcom is either dead or addicted or using substances. Do you find that surprising? At this point we've seen the most vile people, like Charlie Sheen having sex with women while knowingly having AIDS, being awarded and celebrated and becoming massively wealthy anyways.
I'm not shocked. You have to be evil and soulless to be a part of Hollywood.
It still exists she said that
I used to love the show, then i smoked some weed one day and watched it and it was like evil af, seriously, it was evil, never watched it ever again and i was a fan before. I heard all the evil dramatic music playing when these girls were like, breaking their ankles being forced to wear giant heels, girl falls over, evil music, girl's getting picked on, evil music, something serious happens and the editting around it is all fake sympathy then on to the next funny thing, etc. And Tyra's tone of voice was sooooo fake! I never noticed just how fake it was, just how much hate and contempt was in her eyes and body language constantly, like she hated all those girls, she hates everyone, i think she wouldn't bat an eye to actually murder someone in cold blood. Just not good vibes at all, and again, i was a fan of the show before, lol.
It’s sad that I looked forward to watching the bullshit every week when I was 16/17 years old…
I remember watching Lisa in their original season, I was horrified watching the production team use her past abuse against her. And now to know it was even WORSE behind the scenes is f-ing disgusting....
Yes!
Their? It’s SHE. She is a woman.
@C u must be slow. Their can still be used in general to reference a person in general. Yall complicate everything🙄
@@user-id3bu4vn8q its called English my friend.
@@user-id3bu4vn8q also it would be HER not SHE based on the sentence.
She's incredibly smart, well-spoken, honest and brave. And you did a bang-on job in giving her the right platform to fully express herself on the issues that matter most to her. This was an excellent interview. Thank you . . .
Meh.. All he did was nod along and gaslight her.
@@jeano6168 Seems like you need to look up the menaing of the word "gaslight". Perhaps you can provide a specific example in the interview.
16:10 no. No she's not. She interrupts Sloan and herself when making an important point. Then gets distracted and tells a side-story inside of the story. I literally yelled "just finish your sentence!" She started talking about the Allison thing what Allison told her. And she keeps stopping to say "I swear", and to explain what the room looked like, goes back and says "I swear she said this" to resume the story then interrupts herself immediately again to describe the background of the show. I had to pause and breathe, she's so annoying sometimes. Not taking her annoying ways away from the validity of her experience. But its safe to say she talks too much.
Look and then she didnt even finish the story 17:00.... wtf?
@@90sbaby1 I think it's pretty safe to say that YOU are guilty of the very things you complain about! Shshshsh!!! 😂😂😂
Thank you for still speaking up Lisa. You've been through so much and you're still fighting. I'm disgusted I used to be obsessed with this show. I'm rooting for you Lisa. Take care!
I’m so glad people are speaking out about this. Just in the opening, I can tell the shift is really happening.
YES! 🙌🏼✨
❤❤
Right
This interview went by way too fast for me because I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. I too have seen her interviews and watched it all play out in real time growing up. Part two is definitely needed! I could listen to her all day.
Yes, it went by so fast for me too. She has a lot to get out! There could def be a part 2 ❤❤❤
What’s really disturbing and disgusting is that there are a number of people who want to use your personal trauma to bring you down. This is emotionally traumatizing. I never liked Tyra Banks. AMTM was always a reality show that I never liked! I’m just sad to have to hear Lisa’s experience with it, cause the others always say nice things about it!
That's what reality TV is about tho. Drama and trama. If they don't have anything to make the show "hot" then it's no reason for them to be there unfortunately. TV is not to make u look awesome. It's drama and trama
I know I don’t know you irl Sloan, but I am so damn proud of you. You are making a difference in the entertainment industry. God bless you.
Yes! Fully agree ❤
Agree! I see nothing but great success for Sloan 💕
Calm down
@@Lo14103 EH EH! Back in your kennel!
@@Lo14103 😂😂😂
this was so eye opening. lisa seems like a really genuine person and it really puts things that happened on cycle 5 & all stars into perspective. i feel so bad for her and all the girls that they were mentally abused for somebody else's profit. truly disgusting tyra and everybody else involved should be ashamed of themselves. i didn't know about most of the things she said. i stand with lisa ❤
I stand with Lisa too ❤
We should share this episode on our sm's and ban watching ANTM. I stopped watching after season 5 or 6....just had a busy life...but I remember Lisa.
I rewatch an episode from ANTM every few years. It always rubbed me the wrong way, and I couldn’t quite put my finger on why. It clicks now. I’m so glad Lisa is speaking out.
I also stand with Lisa. ❤️
I’m am so shocked at the way Allison reacted and treated Lisa. I always saw Allison as misunderstood and I really liked her, but finding out that she treated Lisa so horribly when Lisa was begging her for help because she was being bullied by her fans is truly heartbreaking
There are two sides to every story. Plus, even if Allison had told her that ( of which there is no proof) why is Lisa blurting it out to the whole world? Surely she would have told her in confidence? Lisa has an issue with accepting responsibility.
I do not fully believe what she is saying and would need the whole story through others, Lisa has been going after Allison for years while Allison has done nothing and moved on. even previously made deleted tiktoks accusing her of being “demonic” and other BS of her mental health that is absolutely not even her business to share with, and it’s all because the toxic fans of Allison back in the day that were bitter that she won all-stars, it wasn't even Allison's fault to begin with and she even told all of her fans to stop sending hate but I guess it is just easier to constantly blame her overall.
@@JLDReactions coz it's important to have these conversations as people continue to profit from vulnerable people.
Allison didn't do anything to her. What are you talking about?
@@139139mimi You can have a conversation without breaking confidentiality. She didn't have to throw Allison under the bus.
I always knew there was something I loved about her 😂
Her working through her childhood trauma is so inspiring as someone who has had allot of stuff to work thru myself. I love that she's making it clear that it isn't about 1 person, but a whole system ❤
Lisa, I was in 5th grade when your season if ANTM first aired. You were instantly my favorite for your vibrant personality! I truly wish you the best and look forward to seeing more of your success
thank u so much
I wasn't in 5th grade, but I instantly loved Lisa as well. I think it's because she and I unfortunately have a lot in common with our backgrounds, so I felt that I understood her. Also, I thought she was unapologetically herself and that's such a rare quality. Even watching this video, she seems like an amazing person. She is speaking the truth, but in such a graceful way. I absolutely adore her.
lol you were 10 watching this show?
I loved Lisa on Cycle 5. I blamed the other girls too when they started portraying her as an alcoholic. I thought they was just trying to shake her confidence. Those people are pure evil. We’ve been so fooled.
Yes! I was even young when I watched and just recognized Lisa was trying to do her own thing and had talent (lol what my middle school brain could comprehend). I remember when Sloan first started talking about ANTM I was so sad to hear how Lisa has been dragged through it. I wish this was a double episode I’d love to see her more.
This is just one side to the story though. Lisa can be obnoxious and drama follows her everywhere.
Literally, and she was like THE best there at actual modeling
I wouldnt say shes an alcoholic but if she thought buying lots of alcohol for people was a good gesture when they couldve used some food wasnt the best judgement call imo
She literally had been modeling 10 years at that point I believe she was older than the others and probably came off bossy but I believe she was just trying to help, and I also love how when she had a bit of a breakdown, and next day aced the commercial and photo shoot.
Lisa is more beautiful than ever. I feel terrible that I watched the show for so many years and that back then didn’t have an eye for reality tv being so faked. We definitely need a part two! So glad Lisa is speaking the truth about what happened to her 💔
Lisa is a powerhouse. I watched her live back in the day on the show. Times were so “different” back then but even so, much of what I saw rubbed me wrong. Fast forward many years later and that same bad behavior (abusive) is now being called out. Lisa’s story has never changed. She is considered a rebel yet all she’s doing is telling the truth.
One thing , amongst many, I respect about Lisa is how open and honest she's ALWAYS been, she's always been an open book and you can tell, this girl does not lie, doesn't have to. We love Lisa!
As a survivor of CSA with no concrete memory of it but who grew up having night terrors, this is so so so so important and I am so thankful you did this interview and she has been so wonderfully honest and vulnerable🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION TO HEAL
Omg.. this interview hit my heart SO hard. She’s so real, and so normal I feel like. To take so many hits at life and just be like “I’m still here people!” I’m so glad she’s staying strong, and speaking out. That’s so strong. I can’t imagine really..I’ve experienced and seen some crazy forms of abuse in my life. I’m in a small town and I knew narcissism was a thing before I really knew there was a word for it. But when you know… you know. There’s just people out there that give zero sh**s about others feelings. Good for her! Her life could legit be an interesting movie.
I really like Lisa. I loved how she was on the the shows. Children who come out from under a narcissist parent are living breathing miracles.
This was FASCINATING. I’ve been watching @luxeria as she releases her commentary on each ANTM episode, and she has absolutely clocked the deceit and manipulation behind the scenes. It’s heartbreaking to see this side of it all, but I am so glad it’s coming out now. I hope everyone finds peace and heals after such a traumatic experience.
Scandal, girls ❤
Loved her energy! And she came ready to spill the tea. Hope she continues to have success and happiness.
😂
Ugh. I know Lisa has been through a lot and that’s sad but I have to say the Alison stuff is wrong. I know a producer who used to work on Top Model (they stopped because Tyra lost her mind as the seasons went on) but Alison didn’t fail her psyche eval. She had a yellow flag (meaning warning) because of her father’s recent passing. Tiffany failed the first season she was on but got help and passed to come back. Production shouldn’t use evals against people but Lisa shouldn’t lie like this because she has Alison issues. I also hate that she called Laura a bumpkin. Like why be rude? It’s sad. I hope she continues to heal.
She has been so nasty to Laura!
Still doesn’t excuse the rest
Using sensitive and confidential information about vulnerable, young models to use against them on a public platform is unethical and disgusting. It’s a shame legal action couldn’t be taken 😔
I can't understand how can you not like Lisa.
She's smart, fun, energetic, spontaneous and genuine.
I really hope this online bullying thing stops for her because she deserves to have some peace.
On the bright side, I love the fact that she's thriving regardless of all the situation created around her.
GO LISA!
I don't like how she badmouth Oliver TwiXt where he was being very professional and compassionate to her and giving her a platform to share her story. I'm not saying she should return the favor, but she should at least show some respect and not attacking someone unprovoked when they did nothing wrong. Yes, I do have sympathy and empathy for Lisa because she has been through so much; but she need to stay away from social media and not let trolls gaslight her into getting a response.
she’s made fun of past models children, aired other ppls trauma etc she has a lot of important things to say but isn’t the best either
I have to say that they really did her dirty in the first season she was on. She was portrayed as the villain. It’s terrible that they put Lisa and the girls through such abuse. All I have to say to Lisa is, “I be like whoa! Just raisin’ bars you know!” Keep raising those bars, girl!
And just in case you ain't a wizard, pot ledom... It top model spelled backwards HUH! 😉 😎
Sorry I had to.
@@georgielockhart6686 and I’m glad you did! 🎶
I’m going to have to rewatch the seasons Lisa was in… I NEVER would’ve thought this was going on behind the scenes! I used to love Top Model! Fuck Tyra & the producers!
I have never watched this channel before but I really love this interviewer he’s so sweet and makes his guests super comfortable, he does his research on his guests and he doesn’t talk over them either he’s so sweet I love this interview
Aww he is. You should watch his CZcams channel ❤ youtube.com/@SLOANHOOKS
Lisa is such a kind and brave person in spite of all the cruelty she was subjected to and I respect her a ton!
I had a modeling contract when I was a kid, but I lost it. It was literally because I chipped my tooth, by slipping and falling after a McDonald's worker had mopped in the playground area. The irony, I don't even go to McDonald's anymore. I'm honestly really glad that happened. Everything happens for a reason, right? I feel like I would have more body dysmorphia than I already do.
Poor lisa I really feel bad for and the other contestants that were abused on the show I'm glad that she and others are speaking up
At first I wasn’t too keen on Lisa on ANTM, but hearing her triumphant story of surviving abuse of all kinds, I have a new found respect for her. 😊
Thank you Lisa and Sloan for this great episode! I grew up watching ANTM, dreaming one day I'd audition. My mom was a catalog and print model in the 80s for the European market and I remember her saying to me 'that show isn't real, those girls won't have a chance after what the show has done to their careers.' I thought she was just being negative, but as an adult I see now she was spot on. Good for you Lisa, you're shining a light on the bs that this show has been getting away with for way to long! ❤
As I’m sitting here listening to the podcast and doing my “diamond painting” lmao I just want to tell you that as a mom of 4 with one about to graduate in like three weeks… I am so proud of you and would of been proud to be your mom, you deserved to be protected and loved and respected I truly truly home that you have the best rest of your life! And know that you are an amazing person and deserve nothing but the best in life!!!
No joke I’m diamond painting and listening to this too 😂😂
@@AlleyCatXD this is literally my first time it just came in the mail today lol 😂
omg i gotta get back to mine!
it's: "🌿🌺🦄🌺🌿"
Diamond painting rocks!!
Mine is 3 giraffes with sunglasses on and they are like multi colored I haven’t got very far at all and I worked in it from 1:30 pm yesterday until 7:40 pm last night but stopped in between to make dinner and go to the store and stuff lol
I’ve never watched an episode of ANTM but I’ve followed Lisa for years at this point! We share the trauma of parental narcissistic abuse, and her speaking about it so candidly has helped me immensely over the years. She seems so genuine, and like she has such a big heart. Thank you for interviewing her, Sloan! This was a great interview!
Lisa was one of my favourites on the show. It makes me angry to know she has been treated so terribly. I admire her courage and strength!
I just have to say that I’ve been watching you since you had like 20k subs on your main channel Sloan and it’s incredible to see you grow so massively and continue to use your platform in such an incredible way. Continue fighting silence and giving people a voice. You’re such a light on this platform
Wow. This is insane. I never would have thought this about her life. Goes to show people can rally hide their trauma. I feel so bad for her, but I also feel so glad for her that she can finally voice all of this. Good for you lady. Let it all out 💙
When she talked about if she saw bad traits of her mum back in her own parenting, she could immediately tell her sister does (which is fine), but when she talks about herself she says she ended up with all the good traits INCLUDING HER MOMS STRAIGHT HAIR. Just rubbed me the wrong way. She sounds like a great person, but there are just little things in this interview that made me feel a bit icky (might be me). Loved your questions Sloan!
Agreed. She seemed a little self absorbed. Nonetheless I felt incredibly bad about her trauma and she was very well spoken
This! Same and also why was it necessary to comment that she was glad to have her moms hair and not her dads hair 🥴 like what’s wrong with having a fro? Idk….
I caught that, it was icky but I’d imagine she’s aware her hair type helps her to pass and makes her life overall easier than if she had an afro
@@EideunSsi people would treat her more “black” and make her life harder
I believe I did say I had more bad traits of my mom if you care to hear incase I didn't.. My mom was a monster so sorry for telling the truth- not many traits we do have similar but I would also say she has a lot of NERVE. Everyone always said that to her. She was ballsy. I have that of her too. I mean look at me being ballsy AF right here ya'll.!!! hahahahah
As far as "throwing my sister under the bus" [someone mentions in another comment below] maybe you don't know our relationship. Maybe she needs to hear this louder, maybe being so transparent and brutally honest about my own family it can help others see and address this with their own families and could also maybe even help mine. Everything I do, I do with mad intention. I hope you can understand. I swear it is all with the best intentions. -Lisa
i love how this just felt like such a casual conversation between the two of you, and that lisa was able to just be unfiltered and tell her story. ppl who are thinking about signing a production contract for tv (etc.) can learn so much from this. thank you sloan for posting this interview, and to lisa for being so strong and just still being alive after all she has been through is so inspiring.
I must congratulate you Sloan on this incredible interview you had with Lisa.
I was blown away by it. Just blown away.
Lisa D'amato was always my favorite model from ANTM. And i follow her on all her tv appearances i just couldn't get enough of her. I came across this Tonight googling her. I absolutely love ❤💯. She looks more beautiful than ever. Im so happy she's Happy and doing so well. She to me is so authentic and so relatable, a breath of fresh air. I cannot Thank you enough for having her on your show. Wow. I just taking aback by everything. And glad its all behind her Now. Again Thank you for this precious GIFT. By the way you look stunning. Keep up the good Work. Lova yas❤🙏👍
This is my favorite podcast interview so far Lisa has been through so much it's incredible to see her speak out about her experience with ANTM. She's so smart and eloquent. We're rooting for you Lisa D!❤
I've always liked her and I felt like the show vilified her. Luckily some of us were able to see through that but I wish we could have done more to protect her
What a brave, well spoken woman Lisa is. I'm so impressed by this interview!! So sad she had to go through all this.
What an amazing and informative interview - I AM SHOCKED but also not surprised. LOVE YOU LISA! I’m happy you’re exposing these people.
What an absolutely amazing interview! Such great chemistry between the two and way to go to the interviewer for letting her speak and also bringing new info out to the light ! Sending you both love
Dude ty for letting her talk. I see way too often a host trying to fully control the narrative & this felt very real. Lisa is one of my all time faves & so interesting. ❤
I watched ANTM in middle school (at the height of my ED I might add) and I’ve known about some of the abusive stuff Tyra did but I had no idea about the psychologist or the 10 year production NDA. That is another level of manipulation on reality television. I wish Lisa all the happiness and success, shes so badass to have come so far in such adversity and still be standing up for others with no benefit to be gained. I love this podcast so much so far more please!
I remember being a kid watching you Lisa, and always loved you. So proud of you for speaking out. I love listening to you!
I was watching the videos in 2019 of the Top Model abuse, and I mentioned it in my psychology class comparing it to I don't remember what. Then the teacher didn't see its relevance in psychology, but you just validated my reasoning 😂 it's 100 percent the Stanford Prison experiment!
Sloan, your patience in all the interviews so far is amazing. You really are a great interviewer.
he truly is incredible!
Im so glad Lisa is speaking out about this & that Sloan is covering it!! The light that needs shining on the antm sh*tshow is sooooo necessary
Please more interviews like this. So amazing eye opening thank you 🙏🏻
Ok, I am going to buck the trend a little here. First of all, it is pretty clear that ANTM was pretty horrible to their contestants. However, It doesn't make sense that they would tell people that they "failed" their psychologic evaluations. First of all, the only way you can really fail is to be so unstable that they don't let you on the show and then they would tell you why they are kicking you off, like Jaslene in Season 7. I find it odd that they would tell contestants that they were not emotionally stable enough to be on the show, cast them anyway, then that the girls would discuss this amongst themselves. In season 5, I can understand Lisa being young and naive and not realizing how edited reality television is. However, she made some mindbogglingly stupid decisions. How could she not realize that putting on a diaper and urinating on camera would be ratings gold? She had to be stunningly clueless or drunk to not realize that and she says that the drinking was exaggerated. Then, after the trauma of the show and being wrongly painted as a villain and someone with a drinking problem, she elected to go on Celebrity Rehab even though she she did not have a drinking problem. Going on a rehab show seems to be an excellent way to make it look like you do have a problem with alcohol. Then she went back to ANTM, even though she had to know that they hadn't changed. in fact, she kept going on reality shows. You would think that staying away from reality shows would be the smart decision. So while I appreciate her speaking out about the problems with ANTM, her story makes her look either not too bright or absolutely desperate for fame, which is a shame because I think she has potential and she still looks fabulous although IMHO her top and tan are not flattering to the fake boobs.
She's a lovely girl and I wish her all the best... But saying you were buying alcohol for all the girls that were bullying and hating on you because you were the only one who had money and did the groceries.. And then in the same breath saying production wasn't feeding you right and that led you to drink more.... Well why didn't you just buy food for yourself so you had enough strength to sustain from drinking so much? You already went out to buy stuff. Doesn't make sense to me. Anyways... I'm taking now everything with a grain of salt because I can't trust her perspective of the things that happened 100%. ❤
Yep also showing off about her friend warning her of the contract and literally red flagging the stuff… and her refusing to listen… but then blaming the contract for locking her into silence and not acknowledging she knowingly made that informed choice. … is more evidence the girl never takes any accountability or even acknowledges for how some of her poor choices contributed to poor outcomes. Did the show have your best interests at heart? No. Does or has any reality show producers have for their contestants? Nope. But you were just as much a shitshow as they were but you came into it with a sense of entitlement and a very poor lack of judgement. She felt so abused by the season and yet she came back to join another season again knowing exactly how they operate and claiming mental and physical abuse… “to redeem herself and kill it” … for her career. And during her first season feeling abused she chose to piss in a diaper for a statement “to piss on the show”… but also continued as she wanted to win? She could leave at any point. But she chose to stay. And come back??? She changes the narrative by not including all the information, only the ones that paints her as the victim. The ONE thing the show did right was genuinely try stop her drinking so much.. self serving as likely her drinking and consequent behaviour was becoming a liability for the show. But ofcourse she immediately blames everyone else, deflecting accountability and throwing names under the bus for being so much more alcoholic than her… because she was fine. Sorry but her words and actions are so inconsistent and her elaborate storytelling of her versions..she’s killing me.
@@RomiKia Everything you said is 100% spot on!!!!!
being "narcissistic" as in having a trait is different than being "a narcissist" as in dangerous to others.
thanks for having lisa on, it was so good to know she is doing so well!
Loved this interview. Really good questions asked and Lisa is a strong and smart woman. I hope she continues to fight the good fight. ❤
There's something off towards the end of this interview. I 100% believe Lisa about being abused by Top Model and her narcissistic mother. She went through a lot of trauma and her feelings are absolutely valid. But there were times when things were off like when she didn't answer the question about what generational trauma her mom passed off on her and deflected it on her sister then started talking about her hair??? and the part about Allison. Allison stated she did tell her fans to stop bullying her and i'm not taking Lisa's experience away but how come she didn't mention Allison telling them to stop? I felt like that was unnecessary to bring up if it's going to be one sided.
That hair comment really threw me off. Because what did that have to do with literally anything 💀
Yeah, that threw me off too. I was waiting for this comment. I was like “okayyyyy”
I felt the exact same way. She threw her sister under the bus a bit by telling that she inherited bad qualities from their mother. She completely deflected it off of herself.
I am sure Lisa felt very hurt by the toxicity of Allison's fans. But that is the thing, we don't know much about what happened from other people's perspective
Yeah... I don't know how to explain it, and I won't ever deny someone's feelings towards hardships they experienced through their life, but there's something off about her.
It seems really bold to say that, but I've never been wrong when my alarm goes off like that about someone.
There are several details and repeating... speech pattern? during the interview that triggered me
@@clarawdk Exact thoughts!
I love this woman! She seems so incredibly genuine and caring. Sloan, you are an amazing interviewer!!!
Loved every minute of it…. You have to do a part 2.
Thank you for opening up a platform for Lisa to speak, we love her ❤ and you !
OMG!! I’m so glad she’s talking about this & I hope she never stops.
This was soooo amazing to watch! I didn’t want it to end. 😩bring her back for a part 2 plz!!!💗
Loved this interview, thank you for having her on so she could speak out!!
Lisa, I’m really sorry that you had to go through all this. This is a whole lot of awfulness for one person to endure. But you’re so strong for speaking out about this, I’m glad you finally get to tell your story, and you seem to be doing well nowadays, which makes me very happy. Sending a digital hug to you. :)
Girlllll, that awkward pause after the "I'm happy I didn't get my dad's fro" 31:21 comment lol, looks down, pause, "do you want to switch gears, and talk about the show?", I don't wanna say she lying, but it's giving huge fake victim Vibes. IF you catch when the host asks, "did you take any traits from your moms behavior" or something along those lines, and she answered no, but then throws her sister under the bus lol. Idk she might be the problem too. There's no way.
My thoughts exactly, but it seems most people are buying her BS. She literally is so full of BS!!
That Afro line made Sloan uncomfortable for sure!
So sickening to hear the things she and others went through…and you know that’s just the tip of the iceberg 😔
Yes please part two!!! I would love to learn more about her businesses and her strength of pushing through everything
Really enjoyed this interview. Lisa is such an inspiration and bless her for everything she is doing!♥️
What a lovely interview Sloan. So glad I was able to hear Lisa's story.
This might be my favorite interview so far. I had no idea it was that crazy on top model and i admire how courageous Lisa is being . I can relate to emotional abuse amd toxic families but shes an inspiration i would have never known looking back watching her season. Another great podcast , Sloan your killin it!
Oh my gosh she is amazing, so outspoken and a amazing advocate for people who went through the abuse on the show, or abuse in general. She a huge inspiration.❤ I loved this episode and I love your work Sloan!
Fantastic interview. Lisa is so honest and open. She has and will help so many people.
I started following you after seeing this interview. I loved Lisa on season 5 and 17. She is such a strong woman to overcome all that she has. Thank you for interviewing her ❤
Lisa is so down to earth & honest. She's so cool!
The story about Allison’s fan is insaaaane, people really need to realize that reality tv is *entirely* constructed. Pretty much from the start of episode 1 they know what they wanna do with the entire season, who they want to play the: villain, underdog, crazy, sob stories, everything.
There is a lot of contradictory information and statements. The level of abuse sounds awful. It’s confusing why she continued to go back like help judge and All Stars except for the money I suppose. I understand she stated doing All Stars was for redemption and to get her reputation back, however, she then said that it was too far late by All Stars to redeem herself. Her response when they told her her mom was in the hospital that she didn’t want to talk to her because she “puts herself in those situations” is very similar to this-she continued to put herself in this abusive situation. A lot of talk about other contests not passing evaluations and being mentally unwell is not really her story to tell, but seems to be a topic she enjoys talking about to prove all the bad things were happening. ANTM sounds terribly toxic. Idk it feels kind of cringy to use celebrity rehab as preventive measures and therapy when most likely for money. I appreciate hearing the story and fight, it seems like despite her saying I’m good, she’s really not. ANTM seems so awful!
She deflected alot when Sloan asked if she inherited any qualities from her mother by putting it on her sister, from this interview it looks like has inherited a few issues from her childhood maybe without even realising it, I can imagine being in a toxic environment that she was in probably triggered it
Incredible interview !! Lisa is literally fascinating
I love that she is coming out and telling her truth and what she went through! Love how strong of a women she is!
Or exagérate to get clout on social media cause it’s in vogue…. Sigh…. You children
I’m commenting just to hopefully help this reach more people. It’s such a tragedy what this show did to so many young women. Thank you for being a voice Lisa! We stand with you 💖
Really good interview! I'm a survivor of child SA and to see and hear her strength is amazing!❤
wow wow wow! Great interview (Sloan you are an absolute pro, super authentic and engaged) - In UK, never saw ANTP - but the stories we hear throughout society and the fame game are eerily echoing each other. This was a fascinating insight. You are both so beautiful ❤
"My dad has a big black afro, I'm so glad my hair is straight"
"Ummm wanna change gears"
Sloan you are a professional lmao
I laughed when he said let's change gears like yeah plz , let's . Lmao
there's nothing wrong with being proud of your straight hair just like there's nothing wrong with disliking afros ??
@@TitanicSurvivor666 i would say it’s a little anti black to call your fathers hair “black afro” as a lesser thing especially when her father is not black. lmfao
@@TitanicSurvivor666 an afro is simply a natural style for Black people. you can be proud of straight hair in a society that demonizes Black hairstyles like you can be proud of being white in our society, but maybe you don’t understanding that either iono it’s cool
@@styrofoampony270 he pivoted so fast and she should thank him too honestly lmao. she said some weird things
I think you just might have literally been born to convey others messages for the world to hear. This was freaking brilliant Sloan. Thank you for being so kind and actually listening to what she had to say. And the questions are actually intelligent. I always zone out halfway through an interview and I was hooked the whole freaking way through 😊 loves it
Thanks for the compelling interview with Lisa Sloan
Absolutely incredible interview Sloan! I loved hearing Lisa's story, you both did an amazong job thank you💖
