Americaâs Next Top Model Will Return On VH1, Without Tyra Banks As Host
Last year, news broke that America’s Next Top Model was cancelled. A few weeks later, it was announced that VH1 decided to pick up the show.
VH1 officially confirmed that they are bringing back the show, but without Banks. The fashion and media mogul will however stay on as executive producer. Ken Mok, also executive producer for the seriesâ full run, will continue in the same role for the next season as well.
In a press release, Banks says, “After creating an incredible, global brand, I am beyond excited to have the show reborn. I will continue as Executive Producer, but must turn my attention to new business endeavors, so I want to find a new host. Iâm pumped to identify that person and bring back the show. Top Model fans, you demanded that the show come back, and VH1 answered the call. Get ready for a fierce-a-fied rebirth!”
The new season will feature 14 episodes. The show’s new host, judges, and premiere date have not been set yet. It will be announced at a later time.
The show will rightfully return to the worldâs fashion capital New York City for a reinvented debut on VH1. CBS Television Distribution (CTD) and VH1 are partnering on a new season of the iconic franchise for a new generation.
âWeâre thrilled to bring âAmericaâs Next Top Modelâ back to VH1 and partner with CBS Television Distribution and Tyra Banks to reinvent this franchise for a whole new generation,â said Chris McCarthy, General Manager of VH1. âThis is a homecoming for the series, as VH1 helped catapult the show to cultural icon status as the first cable network to air the show after it launched.â
âWe could not be more excited to bring back and breathe new life into one of the greatest unscripted franchises on television,â said Scott Koondel, chief licensing officer for CBS Corp. âVH1 is the perfect partner for this new endeavor and we hope this is the beginning of a long relationship.â
