During this cycle, the 14 participants live together and ferociously
vie for the grand prize, competing in a highly accelerated modeling
boot camp. The participants' abilities are tested each week as they
strive to master the runway and fashion photo shoots, perfect publicity
skills and learn the business aspects of becoming a supermodel, all
under 24-hour-a-day surveillance of the AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL
cameras. Throughout the series, supermodel Tyra Banks, art director of
photo shoots Jay Manuel, and runway guru J. Alexander mentor the
participants.
Banks leads the panel of AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL
judges, comprised of leading fashion industry experts. The panel
consists of supermodel Paulina Porizkova, along with photographer Nigel
Barker and runway expert J. Alexander, who closely evaluate the
progress of the models to narrow the field each week. In addition,
special guest judges appear to critique the participants within his or
her area of expertise.
The winner of The CW's AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL
will be managed by Elite Model Management. She also receives a $100,000
contract with cosmetics giant CoverGirl. Finally, the winner will
appear on the cover and six-page fashion spread in Seventeen magazine.
AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL
is produced by 10 by 10 Entertainment, in association with Bankable
Productions. Tyra Banks is the creator and executive producer along
with Ken Mok ("Making the Band") and Daniel Soiseth ("Hell's Kitchen").
