Wow, 18-27. I don't know what the real prize is, other than experience.

I remember they had a Search for a Supermodel show on CTV about 4 years ago and the girl that won wasn't that great, but there was a really beautiful girl that made the top 4 or 5. I hope we get quality contestants....

Shouldn't it be ages 14-19 or something. Ugh. Nobody starts past 20 in the business anymore. This isn't the 90's though I wish it was.

I remember that show. Wasn't there a 6'something girl on it? Maybe her name was Michelle but maybe I'm making it up haha.

I hope that this Canadian version won't just be a supercheap knockoff. Too bad I'm a few months too young to enter... I think I'd rather take the proper open call/agency route though in the end, not some reality tv show.

CNTM is being filmed in Victoria What an odd choice in contrast to Toronto, since Toronto actually has a fashion scene and well, Victoria doesn't.

Ablutophobic, you dont need the show!....Bypass it

[laurlaur]

There was a Britain's Next Top Model (http://www.livingtv.co.uk/model/), which I've heard was terrible.

[alexish]

Don't remember her name, but she was the tallest by far, really thin, with almost black hair. I think she was a Vancouver girl.

I imagine we will see alot of Kelly Streit, but I wonder who the other judges will be.

Very weird that it is in Victoria though.

maybe because they'll move to Toronto in the halfway mark?? I expect a lot from this show though I'm looking forward to it, see what Canada has in store and I hope it's better than ANTM.

I couldn't agree with you more about instead of the reality-TV route, just going for open calls w/ agencies. It seems that the latter is the approach that's ultimately more successful. High fashion executives don't seem take the reality-TV route all that seriously...

And I'm just as confused about Victoria. I'd understand if they took a trip there for a shoot, or something, as it's very beautiful, but Victoria over Toronto or Montreal? Please...

canuck modelia you do have a point! They definitely need to be in Toronto at some point, I think... Perhaps you're right. I'm curious to see how it all goes.

They were doing just fine scouting canadian girls like normal! This will ruin everything *jumps out basement window*

Oh that group is horrible...
Looks like CNTM is going to be another ANTM

[Mr-Dale]

They all look boring....besides, Canada doesn't really need a Next Top Model. Half the modeling world is from Canada these days

[Cosette]

Oh geez, boring! This is ridiculous.

[oolie coco]

Tricia used to be so pretty. Now she looks..... not.

What if she turns out to be like Tyra bent on world domination, using this show just to promote herself!

I will have to jump out the window like Nader...

However I'll be watching every episode you can count on that!
