AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL is the hit reality series that gives everyday people across the nation the
opportunity to compete for a grand prize which includes a modeling contract with a top agency or management
company. Some of the fashion world’s most well-known experts will judge these participants, including top model
Tyra Banks.
Producers of the Series will conduct a nationwide search to find approximately nine to fourteen top contenders who
will compete for the coveted grand prize and have the dream of a lifetime come true. Over a period of several weeks,
the lucky participants will go through intensive training in the modeling field. They will be trained by some of the
top modeling experts in the world…experts who will teach them about fashion, runway skills, physical fitness and
publicity. During this entire time, the participants will live under one roof in a house or loft that is equipped with
cameras and microphones to record their every move, 24-hours a day, 7-days a week.
In addition, the participants will be evaluated on a regular basis by an elite panel of judges led by Tyra Banks. These
judges, which will include high profile fashion industry gurus, will narrow the field week-to-week until one lucky
winner will be chosen…a winner who will become AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL.
