America's Next Top Model is Almost Here

The eighth season of CW's popular reality show, America's Next Top Model, premieres on February 28th at 8 pm with a 2 hour episode. Hosted by Tyra Banks, all your favorite judges are back, including Twiggy, J. Alexander and Nigel Barker.

This time, Tyra has included not one, but two, plus size contestants because she said with more than one, they will have someone else in the house they can identify with. Whatever the reason, I'm glad she did it. She said that this season does not feature the typical beauty that you would usually associate as a Top Model, and that ANTM works to broaden the usual definition of beauty.

Can't wait for the first episode? Check out a short preview clip right here.
