About America's Next Top Model



Creator and supermodel Tyra Banks takes you behind the scenes of TV's hottest and sexiest reality show, "America's Next Top Model," where a group of attractive young women from all over the U.S. compete to gain fame.

The show will transform a group of young women into supermodels. But they must undergo several tests to determine if they are up to the challenge. This show will bring out the best and worst out of these women who live together in a Manhattan loft.

With the help of Banks and other high-profile industry professionals, the women will have to learn how to walk on complicated catwalks, take part in fashion photo shoots, memorize scripts, stay fit, handle publicity and demonstrate their beauty in front of surveillance cameras following them everywhere they go.

A panel of judges that includes model Paulina Porizkova, runway coach J. Alexander and photographer Nigel Barker will evaluate these women and help to narrow the group every week. In addition, special guest judges join the show throughout the season to critique the young women on their area of expertise and help determine the next supermodel.
