I hear Ci~L, I see CeeLo Green.
literally
actually i think tyra banks could write the shining but stephen king could never write modelland
He did do enough coke though
i genuinely feel like she was going through a manic episode when she was writing this
You're so right. Just watching this made me feel like I was getting hypomania lmaooo
her ghostwriter was absolutely taking the piss with this one
Isn’t she always
love the “love yourself” message after saying the whole book that ugly people should die lol
😂😂😂
“ love yourself…but only if you’re hot” 😂
so upset tookie’s mum isn’t called creamy de la creme
she is!! after marriage her name changed
@rivermcandrewbooks plural??
i actually cant believe so much happened in this book yet nothing at the same time
it is truly a feat
I feel like if things had been named differently this could become a classic psychologic philosophical thriller
oh if Murakami slapped his name on it it would’ve been revered
that's... actually so accurate @@shawnmccomb
i desperately need this book to be adapted into one of those obscure animated indie short films
The plot does feel like something out of animation express
I want glitch productions to make it lol.
You explaining the plot of this book feels like me desperatly describing a dream i had but not finding words because it was so weird and out of this world that there are no words to accurately describe it
The first check in gave me the same feeling of a friend telling me about a "crazy thing that happened at work" but I forgot what her job is and who all the people are but I want to support her so I just happily listen and gauge my responses based off her tone. I loved it.
can you imagine the editors reading this for the first time???? oh my god
I think they just took the grammar errors out and then decided not to touch the story with a ten foot pole
That fucking trailer song has been stuck in my head since the last video… it’s a banger honestly
literal nightmare
it gives arca imo
Ikr Shawn has cast a curse
This book feels like she made a list of all the events that can happen in a story and waited for a manic episode to crush them all into a book
THIS. this is the one
Literally! Like, we aren't even making fun of Bipolar/BPD people when we say that it feels manic.
I'm not sure if I've ever had a full blown manic episode, but I've definitely had hypomania many times due to a different disorder. And i feel like if I took the feeling of hypomania and double or tripled it, I could very well write some shit like this
This was literally so overwhelming. Each new detail was so confusing I legit got scared like HP Lovecraft wishes he could write horror like Tyra
I think Tyra needs to win a Nobel prize for this literary phenomenon
You're literally the 'the horrors continue but so do i' meme 😂😂😂
people have different responses to having a near death experience but pranking a 15 year old hunchback is for sure a wild one
this makes it sound like she went and searched for a 15 year old hunchback just to prank them
Say what you want about modelland but that monster taking victims' arms and them coming to life to play music was some junji ito shit
some House (1977) shit
Literally something similar that happened in one of the Unwind books
She should write horror for real like if this book fully gave in to the horror genre it would be amazing
My thoughts exactly! Like, the balloon heads scene??? Junji ito, right there
@@SpecialInterestShow you're the first person I've seen talking about the unwind books lol
Which is a shame cause I liked them
I feel like Tyra Banks is the reincarnation of a Ferret that was the reincarnation of Leonardo DaVinci
This is precise. The grand creation is there somewhere in the back reaches of her soul lmao
"im gonna try my best to explain this but i might start crying" and then the subsquent exasperated look is truly a mood
I remember watching an episode of antm dedicated to this book. It was crazy. Like a fever dream
I’ve unfortunately seen the clips😐
Tyra and Tyson Beckford's thumb 💀💀
Antm?
@@SpecialInterestShowAmerica's Next Top Model
can’t get over bravo serenading tookie then attempting a jazz split and fucking falling 😭
I am indeed from the 21st century and bleeding from my eyes trying to understand this
This takes place in the Trollz universe for me
honestly conked out after them reaching “OoAh” 💀💀 like how tf did you get to the end of the book Shawn😭😭 (the smize was definitely smizing tho yes kinggg can always count on you to serve those looks)
Your Tookie cosplay is fire
I loved the story, it's so random and all over the place
The way I’ve been using this video coming up as the light at the end of the tunnel is wild. Did not disappoint.
SHAWN. ever since the first video was posted, i’ve told everyone about modelland. like at least 10 people. i’ve talked about it so much that my mother is buying it for me for christmas. i’m unhealthily obsessed with this book at the moment.
DID YOU GET IT???
No like I NEED to read this now, the joy I get from the characters names alone is actually hilarious. SOMEONE DO A READALONG WITH ME
The Tookie rap SENT me 😭😭
How did Tyra come up with half of this?? Truly a masterpiece
this is the most mind-bending, TWISTED tale that has ever touched my ears and i am eating every single word up i fear 🤭
now this... this is true camp...
It was the delayed “…….mhm” at the baby name reveal that had me CACKLING
I literally had to watch the video twice in order to fully comprehend the absolutely confusing masterpiece of a plot that this was. Your brave sacrifice will be remembered!
Did we just collectively go on an acid trip?!
when you lifted up the book and i realized you got the eye straight from the cover i had to pause the video and laugh for like five minutes
i'm not kidding, i cried laughing at Bravo's song
day one of asking shawn to read obnoxiously flabbergasting smutty dark romance and film it
This feels like I am watching a video in simlish
And here I thought I'd heard the last of Creamy de La Creme
Your tookie look serves I’m going crazyyyy
RIGHTT OML
I am not lying when I say that I had to look up the book synopsis to ensure that you are not trolling
This book feels like a fever dream. The kind of dream you get when you have 39c+ temperature and wish you were dead
This reminds me of Mary Jane Harry Potter fanfic I would write in high school
BESTOSTERONE??? 😭😭
Good name for a male best friend
transmasc core
Thanks for taking on the burden of reading and sharing this book, I really enjoyed these videos!
the male model school being BESTOSTERONE is HILARIOUS 💀
oh my gosh this is the most stupid and chaotic story I've ever heard XDDD
shawn is a legend
everytime i see u post a new vid i just know its gonna be chaotically fun
the way you can’t say creamy without laughing lmao 💀
I'm actually worried for Tyra Banks' mental state
Cremalatte Defacake De La Crème
What a name
I can't believe I watched all of this video as much as I can't believe I enjoyed it.
this book can't be real please tell me you dreamt about this when you were really sick and now you're telling us because it can't be real
Sadly Shawn hasn't been the only one who has discussed it. So either it's a shared hallucination or it's somehow real
@@SpecialInterestShow i came to the conclusion that it’s a cult and they’re all telling what they went through… shawn is so brave 😔✊
have been subscribed for a while but only now gotten obsessed with ur editing, thanks for making content for girls with beautiful princess disorder (bpd)
Been waiting for this since pt1, love ur vids Shawn
I love LOVE the editing, this was so fun to watch I'm almost sad that the second book never came out
I've never laughed so hard at a book review before. Tyra was definitely dropping acid or some other hallucinogen to come up with something this unhinged. Thank you for the content, Shawn.
I normally watch your videos while doing my homework because the shit you say is just that interesting and helps me focus. This modelland series is the first time I set my work aside just to fully understand wtaf was going on.
Let's go, i'm early!!! Love your videos shawn
I was patiently wating for this one.🎉
im crying so hard this is insane
i dont know what the fuck this book is but your outfit with the smize is your best outfit EVER
Excited to watch this one ! 🎉🎉
yesssssssss i just watched part 1 last night, i'm so glad i don't have to wait 😭
the plot makes me feel like a fish with a 5 second memory, never any idea what's going on
omg king posted 😎
YOUR VIDEO GIVES ME LIFE
i have no idea what the hell Tyra was smoking but i believe snoop dogg had a part in it..
you are the only book reviewer i can listen to without thinking books are boring 😇😇
god has answered my prayers i was scared you were gonna disappear into the woods for two weeks before uploading this
The model land song makes me bust out laughing 😭😂
CAN YOU CAN YOU CAN YOU SURVIVE MODELLAND 😍
If just hearing about this book feels like having hypomania and dissociating at the same time, imagine having to be the one reading it
I put this video on for background noise while I did homework but after hearing about someone shaving there entire body with a rock, I immediately froze
both parts of this video were absolutely diabolical and i loved it pls pls pls make more vids like this 🩷
Y the heck isn't tookie's mum called creamy de la creme ?
Petition for tookie's mum's name be changed to creamy de la creme.
after she got married to Chris it changed to Creamy De La Crème!
Can't belive tyra wrote this sober
Really enjoying this review!! Because of the use of French & Spanish, I suspect ci-L might pronounced like the French "ciel" meaning sky or heaven (which sounds more like "see-elle" rather than "seal" haha).
The fact that Tyra published Modelland the day of my birthday is enough for me to lie saying it’s actually the 14th
Dat shi was all over the place 😀
I literally pissed myself when you started singing the song
These videos make me want to read the book myself bc it sounds like you made up the craziest plot ever.. Tyra how does your mind work?!
I’m really excited XD
9:40 not bleeding from my eyes, but my nose did start bleeding!
this had me gasping for breath bc i laughed so much lmao
this feels like a mix between a monster high movie and an ever after high movie
Pls i will never forget the name tookie de la crème lmao is now embedded in my brain
FR 😭
CREMALETTA DEFACAKE DE LA CRÈME
you have to watch top model it’s so unhinged you would love it
only u could give this book justice
omg i didnt realise this was PART TWO and i was so fucking confused the whole timeeee but just rolled with it T-T
excellent amazing showstopping powerful
modern classic 😍
that part
As someone who has seen at least one Cronenberg movie, yes, she's very good at the body horror
Also, going over the wall doesn’t age their whole bodies, just their face. I remember Creamy being described as having soft smooth hands but her face was wrinkly, so her actual age wasn't affected
Shawn can do Princess Diana but Princess Diana could never do Tyra Banks booktube 😂
I can’t believe the saga is over 😔
I haven't read this book but from the the way you told it I think I understand what tyra was trying to do with the moral paragraph you read at the end.All those things she listed seem to be thing that the characters went through in the story, and in the story those characters win at the end. So she's probably trying to tell her audience that even if they've gone through the abuse that the characters have gone though they can make it out and have a happily ever after.At least that's what I got from your retelling.
lol I know, what’s strange about it is the random jump scare of (condescending) sincerity after 600 pages of utter bullshit
you know how they sometimes change (or used to change?) names in the translations of foreign fiction because it is hard to read? i dare someone to replace Brothers Karamazov characters' names by all of the names from here and or something,,, i just can't have enough, and we probably will have to ask Tyra to generate more of them iconic names which is thrilling in itself
THIS IS FUCKING INSANE WHY IS HE SINGING???
i feel this whole thing is a fever dream
