“America’s Next Top Model” icon Miss J Alexander is giving viewers an emotional update in Netflix’s new documentary about the groundbreaking reality series.
“I taught models how to walk,” Miss J said. “And now I can’t walk.”
Miss J, the runway coach whose walk, wit, and razor‑sharp reads helped define ANTM’s 18‑season run, shares in the film that he can no longer walk after suffering a stroke. When asked whether he thinks he’ll ever strut again, he offers a hopeful but heartbreaking answer: “Not yet.”
Miss J also reveals that Tyra Banks has not visited him since his stroke.
“Not yet,” Miss J said in response to a producer’s question about whether he had seen Banks following his health challenges.
