Short Models For America's Next Top Model Cycle 13

Calling all short female models!

The cycle 13 of CW's America's Next Top Model is now casting for the new season of the most popular modeling competition on television. The new cycle will be a season for short female models - those who fail to meet the modeling standard or AMA's (Association of Model Agents) definition of female models, which is at least 5ft8in (1.73m) tall.


ANTM host Tyra Banks announces the new requirement for top model hopefuls while cheerfully saying, “There have been top supermodels in the past that weren’t as tall as the industry demands, like fashion icon Kate Moss. So we are changing up ‘Top Model’ for cycle 13 and making it a year for the shorter model!”

We wonder how both fashion models and ordinary people react to this new set-up. Is this just a “short-handed”attempt to change what has become conventional? Or a phenomenon that will eventually challenge the modeling standard? Interesting, that is.

So if you are a short model who only stands 5ft7in tall or less, take part in this modeling competition that has been modified to especially fit you. Who knows, Tyra Banks may just meet the next Kate Moss in you?
