[Updated] Tyra Banks Called Model Keith Carlos ‘Manaconda,’ and Now He Shows Us Why

Supermodel Tyson Beckford threw some shade on Keith Carlos, the first male winner of America’s Next Top Model (ANTM), and proclaimed him “short.” But judging by the latest pics Carlos has started posting, it’s obvious why Tyra Banks called him something else: Manaconda.

The 26-year-old played college football for Purdue University and went to the NFL, signing with the first wit the Philadelphia Eagles and then with the New York Giants, until an August 2013 injury ended his time on the gridiron. By 2014, he had switched gears and appeared on the 21st cycle of ANTM and was crowned the first male winner last December.

In an interview with ProjectQ, Carlos said some of his $100,000 cash prize would help his struggling mother. He also revealed she is a lesbian. No wonder he didn’t participate in the homophobia that plagued the season. As if there were not already enough reasons to love this man… but wait, there’s much more.

On the September 1, 2014 episode, the models were told to strip and then sprayed with silly string and foam for the photo shoot challenge.

During the critiques, Tyra said she heard Carlos was well endowed and christened him with name “Manaconda.”

When the Purdue Exponent asked him what he thought of the nickname, he said, “At first it was a little awkward and weird, but I like it now.” And so do we…

Carlos has plenty of eye candy on his Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, but since social media at times is a game of now you see it, now you don’t, we wanted to make sure you saw what all of the fuss is about …

  1. If anything Tyson is threatened by his youthful predecessor and bearing in mind Keith’s age, striking resemblance to Tyson and lastly the…. his girthy endowment, it’s OBVIOUS that Tyson views Keith as a triple threat all the while bidding farewell to his rapidly diminishing career.

  2. Tyson is bad mouthing Keith cause he can’t share his little fellow, that’s according to a friends friend who knows him bin the bedroom department

  3. lol it’s funny that Tyson beckford is calling him short when they have keith listed at 6’1″, which is actually 1 inch taller than Tyson Beckford and over the 6ft minimum most agencies require male models to be.

    But damn that guy really does look like a young Tyson Beckford. I only saw a few episodes of this season but I remember the homophobia very well. That guy Denzel was a complete ass, especially to people who tweeted to him during the time the show aired. And that fake beard they put on him was beyond ridiculous. Whoever’s stupidass idea that was needs to be fired because that looked faker than John Travolta’s hair pieces.
