Episode list

The semi-finalists for Cycle 16 head to Los Angeles, where Jay Emanuel and Miss J. help Tyra Banks pull a surprise switcheroo before the 14 finalists are chosen.

The models are taken through a dramatic photo shoot with live bees and one of the girls faces a personal crisis.

The models spend a drama-filled day getting makeovers with top hair stylist Laurent D and fashion photographer Troy Jensen.

The models are shocked to find that fire will be an element of their next runway challenge for designer Geoffrey Mac.

The models face a unique challenge when they work as teams to write, direct and perform a commercial for a new line of CoverGirl cosmetics, all while dealing with emotional tension that leads one of the models to read the diary of another model.

Tyra helps the girls discover their individual "fashion archetypes," and gives them tips on how to deal with fame.

At a shoot with photographer/judge Nigel Barker, the models wear fashions designed for Ford's "Warriors in Pink" campaign and compete to appear in a national print ad.

Tyra educates the models about the importance of a portfolio, which will prove valuable when they learn the challenge is to complete a round of go-see's in Los Angeles.

Catch up on the fashion and drama of Cycle 16.

The remaining models arrive in Marrakesh, Morroco, where they get to explore the city and enjoy the sights. During a challenge, one of the girls has a meltdown when none of the designer clothing fits her figure. At the photo shoot, one of the models is chastised for trying to direct the shoot, while another deals with body images issues that threaten her photos.

The four remaining girls taste the delicacies in Morocco and, during a difficult challenge where the girls must conduct a tea tray-balancing dance with a twist, one of the models loses her cool. At the photo shoot in the outdoor market, one of the girls tries to overcome feeling sick, while another loses her confidence.

The three remaining models struggle through a talk show correspondent challenge and receive an impromptu visit by Tyra that turns into a photo shoot. During another photo shoot, which includes a male model, the girls all struggle to remain composed with so much at stake and Ivan Bart, Senior Vice President and Managing Director of IMG Models, joins the judges' panel to help choose the final two models.

There are only two girls left and the pressure takes a toll.
