Andre’ Leon Talley Joins "America's Next Top Model" As New Judge

February 8, 2010 (Burbank, California) — AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL welcomes one of the most influential members of the fashion world, André Leon Talley, as a new judge during cycle 14 of the hit show on The CW. Thirteen new hopefuls from across the country are given the chance to prove they have what it takes when the competition kicks off with a 90-minute premiere on Wednesday, March 10 (8:00-9:30 p.m. ET).

Talley, who will join Tyra Banks, photographer Nigel Barker and a weekly guest judge on the judges’ panel, is one of the fashion industry’s most influential style-setters. Currently serving as the editor-at-large of Vogue, Talley is prominent in the world of designer fashion and has a front-row seat to runway shows all over the world.

Miss J. Alexander, long-time judge, breaks free from the judges’ desk to take on a mentoring role during challenges with the models. “After cycles of watching the girls not get it right, I thought they would benefit more from my ‘high heels’ and hands-on approach than my sitting in a chair judging their photos,” said Alexander. “And with Andre Leon Talley, this should be the best cycle yet.”

Cycle 14 welcomes a panel of rotating guest judges that include: Sally Hershberger (Salon Owner/Proprietor), Rachel Roy (Runway Fashion Designer), Sean Patterson (President of Wilhelmina Models), Dania Ramirez (CoverGirl Representative), Patricia Cleveland (First African American Supermodel), Ann Shoket (Editor in Chief of Seventeen Magazine), Whitney Port (Star of “The City,” Runway Fashion Designer), Sara Tetro (Owner of 62 Models), Sara McLeod (Actress from “Lord of the Rings”) and “Top Model” photo shoot director Jay Manuel.

André Leon Talley's On Top... A YSL Red Alert... Everyday People...

TALLEY’S ON TOP: About eight years ago, Tyra Banks and André Leon Talley lunched at La Goulue to discuss her idea of starting a new reality TV modeling competition, “America’s Next Top Model,” and she wanted him to be on it.

“At that point, I said no because it was the beginning. I was thinking I wanted to see where it goes,” Talley said. But 13 seasons — “cycles” in “Top Model” parlance — later, the Vogue editor at large softened to the idea. So when Banks asked him once again to come on board as a judge for cycle 14, which premieres March 10 on The CW, it was an easy sell. “I’ve seen the success of Tyra in many facets of her life,” said Talley, who first met Banks backstage at an Yves Saint Laurent show when she was 16. “So I felt maybe I could contribute something to it that had not been on the show. I just felt that it was a way to step out of the box and associate myself with a very important American success story, a very important brand — Tyra Banks.”
Though he’d never watched “Top Model,” he had “no hesitations at all.” Nor did his Vogue boss, Anna Wintour. “Her reaction,” said Talley, “was, ‘Fine, André. Just let me know when you’re going to do it and how it’s going.’” (Reached for comment, Wintour said through her spokesman, “André is always onto new things on television, and I think his latest adventure sounds like a lot of fun and I look forward to watching him on the program.”)
In cycle 14, Talley succeeds J. Alexander (who instead coaches the wannabe strutters) on the judging panel, which also includes Banks, photographer Nigel Barker and guest judges such as Whitney Port, Rachel Roy and Sally Hershberger.

Describing Talley’s appeal, Banks said, “A lot of people can speak about fashion, but it doesn’t necessarily translate to strong television. But André speaks about fashion and he has such a passion, and the words — the adverbs, the adjectives — he uses! I know it’s going to make the viewer at home go, ‘Wowww.’” Banks added, “It might go over their head, but he’s educating them about a time, bringing them back to a place when fashion was life.”

And Banks is betting that Talley, who signed on for three cycles, will help steer the show in a more high-fashion direction. “Reality television is very commercial. It’s very mass,” she noted. “The fashion industry is very elite, but I feel the fashion industry is catching up to reality television.”
Indeed, even Talley’s “Top Model” wardrobe — 13 custom-made Chado Ralph Rucci cloaks, varying only in color or fabric — offers a lesson in high style. “I went to Ralph Rucci when I started this thing,” Talley said. “We came up with these wonderful designs that are based on 17th-century Edo samurai tunic-coats. And Ralph, who is extraordinarily gifted, understood my desire to have something that would pop on TV.”

Not to be outdone, Banks also stepped up — or rather, pared back — her look. “This is the most clean you will ever see me in the history of ‘Top Model,’” she said. “I am wearing a chignon every single day. I went back to Yves Saint Laurent 1991, honey. I said, ‘This is André Leon Talley! No earrings, no nothing. Just me and the gahhment.’”

Clothes aside, Talley took his responsibilities — to evaluate contestants and make good TV — “very seriously,” he said. He devised a catchphrase of sorts — “dreckitude,” a melding of dreck, one of his “favorite” words, and “quackitude,” a term he’d heard Rachel Maddow use on her show.

“‘Dreckitude’ was whipped out when I thought the challenge was not met or if [the contestants] showed up in perhaps an outfit that I just couldn’t wrap my mind around,” he explained. Such as? “I was constantly repulsed by the complete popularity of what I call the Cult of the Ugly Shoe — that is, a very clodhopper, high platform-y, clunky-clunk sort of shoe, which they would favor. And I kept saying to them, ‘You can also be very elegant in a Sabrina flat.’”

As to whether Talley believes the winner, who has already been selected and will receive such prizes as a Seventeen magazine cover and spread and a Cover Girl contract, has a prayer of ever appearing in Vogue, he said, “I say yes — in my opinion, she has the potential. But that’s not my decision, that’s Ms. Wintour’s.”

André's Next Top Model

DESPITE having declined a spot on the judging panel when the show started 13 seasons ago, US Vogue's editor-at-large André Leon Talley is the newest face on Tyra Banks' America's Next Top Model judging panel for cycle 14 - and, some would say wisely, he did it with the full support of his editor-in-chief Anna Wintour.

"Her reaction," said Talley, "was, 'Fine, André. Just let me know when you're going to do it and how it's going.'" Reached for comment by WWD, Wintour said through her spokesman, "André is always on to new things on television, and I think his latest adventure sounds like a lot of fun and I look forward to watching him on the programme."

Talley has signed up for three seasons as a judge alongside Banks, replacing J Alexander who will return to coaching the contestants in their catwalk skills, and the supermodel couldn't be more excited about her latest panellist.

"A lot of people can speak about fashion, but it doesn't necessarily translate to strong television. But André speaks about fashion and he has such a passion, and the words - the adverbs, the adjectives - he uses! I know it's going to make the viewer at home go, 'Wowww.'" Banks said. "It might go over their head, but he's educating them about a time, bringing them back to a place when fashion was life."

And will the winner, who has already been chosen, find herself in the pages of Vogue? "I say yes - in my opinion, she has the potential," Talley asserted. "But that's not my decision, that's Ms. Wintour's."

André Leon Talley Signed On for Three Seasons of ANTM and Anna Wintour Was Fine With It
André Leon Talley has already finished filming the fourteenth season of America's Next Top Model. He replaces J. Alexander on the judging panel. (Miss J will return to fixing the contestants' busted runway walks.) Talley signed on for three seasons of the show, and tells WWD that Vogue editor Anna Wintour had "no hesitation at all" about him appearing on it, even though neither of them had ever watched an episode. But now, Wintour's going to start

“Her reaction,” said Talley, “was, ‘Fine, André. Just let me know when you’re going to do it and how it’s going.’” (Reached for comment, Wintour said through her spokesman, “André is always onto new things on television, and I think his latest adventure sounds like a lot of fun and I look forward to watching him on the program.”)

Talley believes the winner is a Vogue-quality model, but could not confirm she would appear in the magazine. "That’s not my decision, that’s Ms. Wintour’s," he told WWD.

Tyra Banks tried to get Talley on the show before it even started. They had lunch, discussed Tyra and the reality show she planned to start, and then probably talked about Tyra some more. Talley said no because he didn't know if the show would succeed or how it would turn out.

But after thirteen seasons, Talley believed he could bring something different to the program. And that doesn't stop at the thirteen Chado Ralph Rucci graduation robes Talley had custom made, and which ought to be worth tuning in for alone, Tyra's crazy aside.

“I went to Ralph Rucci when I started this thing,” Talley said. “We came up with these wonderful designs that are based on 17th-century Edo samurai tunic-coats. And Ralph, who is extraordinarily gifted, understood my desire to have something that would pop on TV.”

So Talley is finally bringing to this program what it has lacked in the entirety of its thirteen-season history: high fashion. Also, eyes that not only judge a bulging abdomen or a stumpy neck or thin frog lips or a horribly obnoxious personality, but the clothes people wear. Even Tyra Banks felt intimidated.

“This is the most clean you will ever see me in the history of ‘Top Model,’” she said. “I am wearing a chignon every single day. I went back to Yves Saint Laurent 1991, honey. I said, ‘This is André Leon Talley! No earrings, no nothing. Just me and the gahhment.’”

Talley said he took his role as a reality star "very seriously." And no such role is complete without a catchphrase. His is "dreckitude":

... a melding of dreck, one of his “favorite” words, and “quackitude,” a term he’d heard on Rachel Maddow use on her show. “‘Dreckitude’ was whipped out when I thought the challenge was not met or if [the contestants] showed up in perhaps an outfit that I just couldn’t wrap my mind around,” he explained. Such as? “I was constantly repulsed by the complete popularity of what I call the Cult of the Ugly Shoe — that is, a very clodhopper, high platform-y, clunky-clunk sort of shoe, which they would favor. And I kept saying to them, ‘You can also be very elegant in a Sabrina flat.’”

Such wise words. But perhaps a little too wise. What are the chances that the America's Next Top Model contestants know what dreck means? Or understand the quirky intellect of a late-night cable-television news host? Do they even grasp the meaning of cult? Smize has gone global. Dreckitude might not even catch on. But this is only Talley's first season. We can't expect him to craft made-up words worthy of their own superheroes just yet.
