Paulina Porizkova, a judge on “America’s Next Top Model,” makes a shocking announcement on tonight's “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson”!

“Listen, do you know why I am in Los Angeles … because I am looking for a job,” Porizkova tells Ferguson. “Because I was fired by 'America’s Next Top Model' on my birthday.”

Porizkova claims she was fired over the phone, continuing, “The reason I was told I was fired was because, it seemed that ‘America’s Next Top Model’ has gotten too fat and they needed to cut some fat, and the fat was me.”

She added: “So I figured it was either that or my gigantic huge ego. Which I wasn’t aware of until I was told by the producers that I have an ego problem.”

Tune in for more details and the full interview between Ferguson and Porizkova tonight on “The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson,” airing 12:37 a.m. ET/PT on CBS.

And -- see Porizkova’s final appearance on the "America’s Next Top Model: Cycle 12 finale" episode airing Wednesday, May 13 on The CW at 8pm ET/PT.

    • People want Ms. J's advice. So I wish people would stop hatting on him. I do agree that lately the girls are not the best. But Just because M. J is the way he is people keep hatting on him and that is just plain trifling.

  • I honestly did not like that women on the show. I think she did have an ego problem. When the season first stared out she never had anything nice to say about any of the models. I honestly think she was just feeling "old" and that's why she was so...

  • I don't know what goes on outside of what they show us on the show, but if the show lasted 12 cycles and still going strong, you have got to assume the producers have some idea of what they are doing.
