Tyra Banks turns a team of beautiful girls into lean mean modeling machines on her hit reality show America's Next Top Model. Through grueling challenges, photo shoots, go-sees, and walk-offs, Banks shows these aspiring models exactly how to succeed as a model. There are surprises around every turn as the girls are taken off to exotic locales in the modeling capitols of the world, dressed in hot designer outfits, and given life changing makeovers. They are judged by ex-models like Tyra Banks, Twiggy, and Janice Dickinson who are joined by notable fashion photographers and designers. The girls fight tooth and heel to receive a generous cash prize, a modeling contract for a major brand (most recently CoverGirl), representation with a top agency, a spread in a major magazine, and the title of America's Next Top Model.
