VIDEO : Tyra Banks Believes 'Top Model' Helped Launch Kendall Jenner

Tyra Banks is claiming that she?s responsible for Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner?s successful modeling careers. As America?s Next Top Model?s 22-cycle run comes to an end, the show?s host has taken a moment to reflect on how the series has impacted the modeling world. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Banks reveals that she believes that her television series has opened doors for models that didn?t fit the mould. Banks said, "I think it has opened up the world to accepting reality television stars as models. If you think about Kendall and Gigi and all of these girls from reality television. I think Top Model knocked the doors down for that to be okay in the high fashion world.
