Tyra's Top Model Takes Nine
Tyra Banks has rounded up a new crop of would-be catwalkers.
The CW on Thursday released the names of the comely contestants due to compete on the ninth cycle of America's Next Top Model, premiering on Sept. 19.
Among the aspiring models: Ebony, a 20-year-old nursing student from Chicago; Janet, a 22-year-old aesthetician from Georgia; Lisa, a dancer from New Jersey; and Sarah, a college student from Massachusetts.
The contestants will live together in a lavish Los Angeles mansion, as they face an array of challenges and photo shoots, with judges Banks, Twiggy, Nigel Barker and J. Alexander critiquing their every pose.
Each week, one girl will be eliminated, narrowing the field until only the winner remains.
The girl who takes the Top Model title will earn a management contract with Elite Model Management, as well as a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics.
She'll also appear on the cover of Seventeen and be featured in a six-page spread in the magazine.
