Cycle 15 of America's Next Top Model premiered yesterday and it looks like another competitive batch this cycle.
Of course, what's an ANTM cycle without a "gimmicky" contestant, right? Cycle 7 had the Babin twins, Cycle 10 had Heather, the girl with Aspergers, and Cycle 11 had a transgendered contestant in Isis. This cycle, they have sisters - Terra and Chris, who Mr. Jay fondly calls the "comedy routine." Methinks they're good for a few laughs, but neither of them can be a model.
In an effort to up their fashion ante, ANTM is going high fashion this cycle. They've got a couple of quirky faces in the roster - Rihanna, Ester, Lexi and Ann - all have very distinct faces. (And Ann is 6'2" with a 22" waistline to boot.) Not only that, the winner of this cycle is not going to be on Seventeen magazine, but on Vogue Italia!
Yes, Vogue. That's how high fashion they're making Cycle 15. So the winner gets to be the cover girl of Beauty in Vogue, has a 6 page spread in Vogue Italia, aside from the usual Covergirl cosmetic contract and the IMG model management prize. Yup, they're serious about going high fashion.
Let the battle begin! I'm going to get a high watching that.
