Report: Tyra Banks Physically Assaults Young Girl

Published: Wednesday 24th May 2017 by David

‘America’s Got Talent’ has been sued after one of its judges Tyra Banks was accused of mocking, teasing and assaulting a young girl on set.

A 18-page lawsuit filed on Tuesday claims tells the tale. On March 19th, a couple made their merry way to the show to audition with a song they penned about their daughter’s birth.

Alas, the couple says thing took a turn for the horrific when the judges are said to have laughed at the performance and Tyra sunk her claws into the daughter (named “Mary” in the suit).

‘Deadline’ adds:

The suit claims that during the performance, Banks, “an individual acting as an agent of Defendants (AGT), physically manipulated and verbally abused Mary. Banks shook Mary’s shoulder, pulled Mary’s hair back and physically manipulated Mary. … Mary did not stop Banks’ conduct because Mary was fearful. Banks also insinuated that Mary was accidentally conceived, made fun of the performance and ridiculed [the song] in front of Mary, all in front of active cameras that were filming Mary. After the performance, Banks asked Mary to describe, in front of active and filming cameras, her opinion about Jane and her husband after they were publicly ridiculed by AGT.

Banks alleged assault is said to have flung the young girl into a deep depression prompting her guardians to seek justice via a jury trial.

    I don’t know why I smell a rat.Tyra can be a little to extra and zesty sometimes which could come across as being mean,its a talent show, you should expect this.

    I can believe it. She strikes me as the kind of person who’ll punch you and laugh while doing it all while saying “you know I’m only playing” .

    Sounds legit. Remember what she did to Tiffany? Horrid lady.

    • Kree1996 May 24, 2017

      Tiffany was being a brat the entire episode, she had it coming ..tyra did nothing wrong when dealing with that hoodrat

      • Naomi Reigns May 24, 2017

        No. Tiffany found out that the show was rigged and got tired of pretending hence her “defeatist” attitude.

      The Got 2 B Real parody version is even better than the original. “This is not a joke, Beyonce! This is not playtime, Mariah!!!!”

    • truthteller May 24, 2017

      And that was with the cameras rolling. What would she have been like if it wasn’t being recorded. I’m still convinced Tyra’s treatment of Tiffany was transference of her issues with Naomi.

    Reaching for ratings? Come on now.

  6. Ughhhh May 24, 2017

    Lmao this isn’t real.

    I haven’t trusted Tyra since she made Yaya apologize to a fake Kente hat.

  8. Ronnie May 24, 2017

    All the years Tyra has been on television it’s hard to believe she would do anything that would get her and the show she’s hosting sued. But I guess if it’s on camera we’ll find out.

    Tyra is a typical pretty mean girl – manipulative Andy self-important just watch her interview with Jessica Alba after Jessica had a baby Tyra said something to the effect of “you went from having no bewbs to having SOME bewbs” she’s a typical mean girl. That being said I doubt there’s any truth in this story.

  10. Fact Checker May 24, 2017

    This story sounds more like fiction than fact. Especially since it’s not followed by a story about her AGT termination I don’t believe it.

  11. SMH May 24, 2017

    Lmao. You’d have to be pretty stupid & gullible to believe this.

  12. Xoxo May 24, 2017

    This makes no sense and when something doesn’t make sense it is usually false…

    Was Tyra rooting for her?
    #GirlBye with that get a coin quick scheme. ?
