“America’s Next Top Model” host Tyra Bank sand “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air” actor Alfonso Ribeiro are currently co-hosting the new season of “Dancing with the Stars”.

Over the last few seasons, fans of the reality competition show were not happy with the way Tyra Banks hosted, so when the show announced Ribeiro would be joining Banks, they were relieved.

However, Banks is still getting plenty of air time, and fans are not happy about her continuous mistakes.

On the October 3, 2022, episode of the "Dancing With the Stars", host Tyra Banks gave a shout-out to Charli D’Amelio’s friends who were supporting her and sitting in the audience -- including D’Amelio’s boyfriend, musician Landon Barker.

Barker, 19, is the son of Blink-182 drummer and Kourtney Kardashian's husband, Travis Barker. But, when Banks introduced Barker, she called him “Logan” by mistake.

“Charli’s friends Kourtney Kardashian, Travis Barker, and Logan Barker are here,” Banks said. “I know you guys are very proud right now.”

Fans were quick to comment on Banks's mistake, taking to social media to call her out. So, during the following week's episode, Banks addressed the name mistake to D’Amelio after her dance on Disney+ Night -- although, she once again, made the mistake.

“I called your boyfriend Landon Barker and his name is Logan,” Banks said during the live show. But then, D’Amelio corrected her, saying that she messed up Barker’s name again. “Okay, I just said it backwards again,” Banks added. “What is wrong with me with this? Why can’t I get this right? They said it in my ear last week, I got it wrong. Now that I’m reading it and I’m getting it wrong.”
