"America's Got Talent" is facing some legal troubles because of new host Tyra Banks. A female contestant filed a lawsuit against "AGT" producers, claiming that Tyra humiliated her daughter at recent taping.

The contestant, referred to as Jane Doe in her legal documents, and her husband performed a song about her bond with her daughter, who is identified as Mary, at the taping on March 19. Jane and her husband were "humiliated" by the judges and the audience, who criticized the song and Tyra added to the humiliation by making fun of the song in front of Mary.

The contestant alleges that Tyra pulled her daughter's hair back, physically manipulated her, and insinuated that the girl was accidentally conceived.

"[Afterward] Mary was traumatized and became deeply depressed," the suit states, "Mary would become extremely nervous and anxious whenever, among other triggering events, she hears any mentions of [the] song and [the] song itself, whenever she ruminates about the events during or related to the performance, and whenever she thinks about the prospective televised airing or use online of Jane and her husband, their performance, as well as the airing and use online of any footages of Mary."

Jane is suing "AGT" production company, Marathon Productions, for intentional infliction of emotional distress, negligent infliction of emotional distress, civil battery, and civil assault. She is also seeking a trial by jury.

Representatives for Tyra and "America's Got Talent" haven't responded to a request for comment.
