You know, I was going to go down to the "America's Next Top Model" auditions here in NYC today, so that I could capture the moment on my camera, but something told me not to go. Maybe it was the fact that I was told that young, short, aspiring models had been lining up for the auditions since 9pm the night before. I'm glad I didn't, because apparently some straight up craziness went down earlier today.
*Update* Simone Kali gave us some footage of the craziness. Check it out after the jump.
"Police didn't know what prompted the chaos involving hundreds of people outside the Park Central New York hotel in Manhattan. The panic left the street outside the hotel littered with shoes and clothing, according to news reports.Three people were arrested on disorderly conduct charges, police said. Authorities also shut down the audition, saying it wasn't properly organized.Four injured people declined treatment, while two others were taken to a hospital, the fire department said. Their conditions weren't immediately available.The phone rang unanswered at the hotel, and representatives for The CW Network, which airs the reality show, didn't immediately return calls."
Under 5'7'' aspiring models everywhere were so excited that they finally got a chance to live their dreams, and probably didn't know how to act. SMH
