An audition in New York for the TV show America's Next Top Model turned ugly when chaos broke out, leaving six people injured and three arrests.
Thousands were queuing outside a Manhattan hotel hoping to be selected for the hit reality show, created and hosted by former supermodel Tyra Banks.
Police cancelled the audition but could not say what had sparked the panic.
Reports suggest matters were made worse when a man charged into the crowd attempting to steal handbags.
Clothes and shoes were abandoned in the street as women tried to escape the melee. Of those injured only two were taken to hospital, according to the fire service.
The arrests of two women and a man were on charges of inciting to riot and disorderly conduct.
