Tyra Banks has been in the spotlight ever since she was announced as the new host on 'Dancing With The Stars'. However, it has not been a fairytale journey for her as people were quick to slam her hosting skills. The viewers hinted they wanted her out of the show, but Tyra made it clear that she was in it for the long haul. Unfortunately, that did not stop her from making further gaffes. Right from her choice of clothes to the questions she asked contestants, Tyra failed to impress the audience. In the latest episode, which aired on November 16, the reality star seemed to have made a similar mistake when she decided to make a comment on Justina Machado's leg. 

The latest episode was a redemption round where the dancers were asked to perform one of their dances that they failed to do well the last time. For Justina, Derek Hough was chosen as the judge who would guide her through the dance routine. Derek decided to pick her tango routine that he felt she could have done better. 

Last time, Justina had a hard time getting the steps right and Derek thought this would be the best time to show off her skills. Justina took the challenge and when the time came to step on the dance floor, she did not disappoint. She managed to keep everything in mind and delivered a performance that was praised by all the judges. Derek admitted there was passion in the dance and it covered for every mistake she had made the last time. Bruno Tonioli also liked the dance performance and thought it was powerful. Meanwhile, Carrie Ann Inaba admitted that the performance was sensual. She got a total score of 27 out of 30. 

Once the performance was over, Tyra decided to comment on Justina's leg. Tyra admitted she loved how Justina's leg muscle was seen during the performance. Fans thought it was a strange statement to make. Ummmm wtf Tyra talking about with her leg muscle? What a creep" read one comment. "It's the quads Tyra... those muscles in the thighs, they're called the quads," said another. "Why is Tyra so strange!!!!! Who says stuff like that," asked another. Others slammed her hosting once again. "Tyra Banks has made DWTS totally unwatchable. Her comments and questions are so stupid that you just want to scream "shut the f_ck up"!!! If the show comes back next season I'll be shocked. Bring Bergeron and Andrews back or forget about coming back," read the comment.
