Cycle 21 of AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL, hosted by Tyra Banks, welcomes a fan favorite back to the judging panel: J. Alexander, a.k.a. "Miss J." The second "Guys and Girls" edition will begin airing in summer 2014, with seven men and seven women living under one roof and battling it out to earn the prestigious title of AMERICA'S NEXT TOP MODEL.
The panel of judges, which includes Banks, fashion public relations maven
Kelly Cutrone and the viewing public, will be joined by beloved runway coach J. Alexander making his return to the show to determine who stays and who goes in the competition.
"His name says it all. I've missed 'Miss J.' and am elated he's back," said executive producer
Tyra Banks. "I know 'Top Model' fans will rejoice!"
Also joining Cycle 21 as photo shoot creative consultant is the sought-after photographer Yu Tsai, who has worked with some of the entertainment industry's most talented models, actors and musicians. Yu Tsai also helped launch the careers of many supermodels, including
Kate Upton, in addition to working on campaigns with worldwide brands, including prize partner GUESS.
"We are thrilled to have 'Miss J.' reprising his role as runway coach and judge extraordinaire. 'Miss J.' has been a part of the top model family since cycle 1 and we are thrilled he's come home," said executive producer Ken Mok. "We are also excited to have world renowned photographer Yu Tsai joining 'Top Model' this season as creative consultant to the models - he's one of the world's most well regarded photographers and his work speaks for itself."
The model hopefuls will compete for a career-launching prize package that includes returning prize suppliers NYLON Magazine, GUESS and Next Model Management. The winner will receive prizes including: $100,000 national ad campaign with GUESS, whose advertising campaigns have launched many modeling careers; a fashion feature in NYLON Magazine and offered a modeling contract with Next Model Management.
