Adrianne Curry is slamming Netflix’s new documentary about “America’s Next Top Model.”
Curry, who won the first season of “ANTM” in 2003, spoke out against “Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model” after Netflix dropped the trailer for the the upcoming three-part series, which is revisiting the reality show and its many controversies.
“I am deeply grateful I won the first season of top model. i think people psychoanalyzing it over 20 years later with a woke lens is absurd,” Curry, 43, wrote on X on Monday.
The model and TV personality said she declined to appear in the docuseries out of fear her words would be taken out of context by editing.
“I don’t trust people to not manipulate things I say for tv, so i decline everything,” she shared. “Also, the public is cult-like and cruel, so the last thing I want is a bunch of eyeballs on me.”
Curry stated that she hopes the “ANTM” alums who are in the doc, including fellow winners Whitney Thompson and Dani Evans, “do not have their words twisted.”
On Instagram, Curry added, “I say no to all of these. I have 0 trust in any producers, no desire to be really public in this day and age…. and am hard retired from Hollywood.”
Curry continued to bash the documentary in exchanges with fans on X.
“It was a different time. Modeling was about about pretty, skinny, and photogenic…much like today. Can’t judge 20 years ago by today,” one fan wrote to Curry, who responded, “Its a cover up fest. Let em weave their webs.”
When another critic questioned why Curry wouldn’t participate in the project, she replied, “Ive simply been burned far too many times by producers to trust any.”
“That documentary is going to be a s–t show with a lease to make Tyra come out looking better than she deserves imo,” a different X user said to Curry, who wrote back, “I feel the same way…I worry about the girls from my season who agreed to do it.”
Curry previously made major accusations about her time on the hit reality show in a 2023 interview with Entertainment Weekly, claiming she was allegedly sexually assaulted during a challenge in Paris and allegedly did not receive the total prize package she was owed for winning the show.
In 2024, she told People she felt “betrayed and lied to by the show.”
“That’s the industry. That is what it is. It is cutthroat. It is lying. It is predatory,” Curry explained, adding that the show “prepared me for the awful truth that I couldn’t trust anybody, even people that I thought I could, and even knowing that I still got screwed over.”
Netflix’s “ANTM” documentary will “look back at the reality show’s complicated legacy” with insight from host and creator Tyra Banks, former judges Jay Manuel, J. Alexander (Miss J) and Nigel Barker and multiple former contestants.
During the trailer, Banks, 52, admitted she sometimes “went too far” on the show.
“It was very, very intense, but you guys were demanding it, so we kept pushing it, more and more and more,” Banks said.
“Reality Check: Inside America’s Next Top Model” releases Feb. 16 on Netflix.
