'Top Model' Curry Fires Back at 'Brady' Mom

Adrianne Curry shot back through her rep about Florence Henderson's criticism earlier this week at the Television Critic's Association press tour in Beverly Hills, Calif. Henderson suggested that Knight was essentially forced to get engaged to Curry after the couple met on VH1's "The Surreal Life," and subsequently married her on two spinoffs. A statement sent to Fancast.com by her publicist reads:

"For Florence Henderson to use the Television Critic's Association as a platform devoted only to disrespecting another individual who is completely unrelated to the Television movie she was supposed to be promoting is grossly unprofessional, irresponsible and immature. Ms. Henderson has been in this business a long time and should know better by now. Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry never asked Florence Henderson (an actress) for counseling. Ms. Henderson doesn't personally know Adrianne Curry so she has no basis in which to publicly voice inaccurate and hurtful judgmental opinions about Ms Curry or Knight's decision to marry her.

"For the record; Christopher Knight and Adrianne Curry enjoy a solid healthy relationship in a happy marriage."

body I personally do not know Miss Curry, but a person can still get an idea of what a person is like by watching them even in a "unreality" tv show.
On that show, and her public appearances she comes across as a mean, thoughtless, drunk **bleep**. If that is how she wants to show herself, then she and her family must be so proud.

body I saw the surreal life with Christopher Knight and now-wife, I guess. This won't last but another 18-months, tops, if that long. Strange thing is, and it truly escapes me, but why didn't anyone make comments about the birdlegs Chris has? Now, I know all eight million people couldn't have missed that one; and let me tell you all, I never miss a beat!

body I was being too nice in my previous post, but now I'll dish the dirt on Curry. I gatherered from watching only two episodes, this woman was the "Laura Petrie" type. Yes, people, I said "type" so what of it? In any event, Curry came across as constantly nagging, whining, and henpecking Chris to no end. However, I'll be fair about this and also say that Chris deserves this type of treatment for thinking he is "so it" in his own mind. Gee, had they aired this show another year from now, they could have called it "Trolling For Geezers".

body Knight and Curry asked Henderson to counsel them during their pre-marriage relationship. That makes Henderson an insider and free to comment (assuming nothing personal is revealed). I think it interesting that only Curry is commenting. Knight is silent. That situation makes me think Henderson is right about the relationship. Just my musing.

body Chris Knight looks better than he EVER has! Adrianne Curry is obviously the reason. I have never seen two people more in love and watching them fall for each other and get married in front of eyes was such a romantic treat. Especially because they make it look like work=real life. Anyone can see that Knight would be the last person on earth who could ever be forced to do ANYTHING!

To me, Adrianne is the only America's Next Top Model.
She was treated unfairly (and still is, IMHOP) by ANTM and Tyra Banks. Any success she has had since that show has been entirely of her own making. My only criticism of Adrianne is her potty mouth!

If Knight is even HALF as happy as he appears to be-Henderson should suck it up and be happy for him.

Yes, they both have 'issues' but at least they seem to be working on them-and who doesn't?

I think Knight isnt responding out of respect to Henderson. Curry, well, she is in the right to say that platform wasn't appropriate to air Henderson's personal thoughts of the couple. Instead of saying "Invite me to the divorce" Henderson could of been more supportive of Knight and Curry by wishing them the best of luck. Marriages these days are doomed from the beginning because everybody thinks they know what goes on behind closed doors. Leave them alone...

body Hasn't anyone noticed that this girl is not very stable? She constantly flies off on immature rampages if things don't go her way. I do believe that this marriage will spiral out of control. He's got to feel like he's raising a spoiled brat daughter instead of sharing his life with a wife. As attractive as she is on the outside I see a very insecure child with a "look at me, me, me", inside!
