'ANTM' Contestant Nyle DiMarco's ASL Phrases

VIDEO: ET Interviews: 'ANTM' Deaf contestant Nyle DiMarco names his sexiest feature and signs 'Top Model' phrases.





Entertainment Tonight - While it’s easy to brush off America's Next Top Model in its 22nd cycle, there’s one very hunky reason to still watch: Nyle DiMarco.



In fact, this cycle has been fun to watch as the guys an addition to the competition in cycle 20 have been bringing the drama, as well as the sex appeal.



Nyle DiMarco is one the show’s leading contestants, standing at 6’2” with piercing blue eyes and washboard abs. He also happens to be Deaf, which Tyra Banks and others initially thought of as a possible hindrance.

The cycle 22 breakout sat down with ET to talk about embracing fame.



He can also shut out all the unending fights that take place in the house each week. “Fortunately, I'm Deaf, so I don't have to hear all of their drama,” says DiMarco, staying above the fray that often comes back to Banks’ Ty-Overs. “I just want to say that you all are complaining about hair, hair, hair. Am I complaining about my deafness? No, I am not.”



When it comes to his best assets, Banks and fellow judge (and PR maven) Kelly Cutrone have taken notice of his abs and waist, often asking him to remove his shirt during panel. And DiMarco totally understands. “My sexiest feature is my body,” he says, adding, “I work out a lot.” ...

#DeafTalent - Deaf Roles Belong To Deaf Actors

VIDEO: #DeafTalent - Campaign: Hollywood, stop hiring hearing actors for Deaf roles. Deaf people have the right to represent themselves!



As a result of this #DeafTalent campaign, the world will have a much better understanding of the Deaf community’s standpoint on not allowing Deaf roles to be given out to hearing people. Many people do not realize that they have been oppressing Deaf actors for many years now.





We hope that this new awareness will also create many more job opportunities for Deaf people all over, both in front and behind the camera, as well as other places. We believe that this campaign will ignite many new discussions and ideas and help cause a shift in societal awareness.





Huffington Post - The #DeafTalent hashtag began making waves after a NY Daily News interview with Catalina Sandino Moreno raised red flags in the Deaf community. Moreno, a hearing actress, was cast to play a Deaf woman in the leading role of her new film Medeas. But in the NYDN interview, it became clear that Moreno has had very little exposure to deafness or Deaf culture.
