You may have noticed city bus ads rolling around town touting the latest season of America's Next Top Model. On it, host Tyra Banks poses dramatically by a waterfall, surrounded by the latest batch of aspiring models/ catfight - experts/ bi-curious lust-objects vying for the ANTM crown. (The photo is rendered all the more impressive when you consider that just out of camera range were approximately two dozen hungry alligators and a school of piranha hungrily snapping at the models' feet, as Mr. Jay shouted, "I don't care how many toes you have left! Look sexier!") The residents of Santa Monica, however, were none too pleased by the traveling hoochie-show on display:

Ads for the TV contest have been removed from the sides of the city's Big Blue Buses after residents complained. [...]

The city's director of transit services says most of the complaints came from people concerned that the city might be endorsing a show they find disrespectful to women.

The ad ban is sure to incur the wrath of Banks, who only recently cast herself as a latter-day Joan of Arc, set ablaze upon a cross of unretouched tabloid beach photos on behalf of voluptuously bootied women everywhere. That the residents of Santa Monica should be so protective of their daughters' fragile self-esteems as to censor The CW's promotional materials stands in stark contrast to the nearby community of Beverly Hills, where grassroots efforts on behalf of concerned citizens single-handedly enacted the historic Bimbos For Bustier Billboards legislation of 2003.
