Top Model is casting again. It’s that time again, time to find America’s Next Top Model. Cycle 20 2013 season is now casting and is searching the nation for the model that will win the reality show America’s Next Top Model.
The hit CW show is coming back for another cycle / season. This will now be the 20th season of the show and Tyra Banks and crew are switching it up a bit.
We’ve seen petite models, plus size models and now we are about to see male models compete on the show for a shot at the title of “America’s Next Top Model”.
Cycle 20 is now looking for not only female models but males as well. Gentlemen, do you have what it takes to be a top Model and win the reality competition show?
Yes, you read that right! For the first time in the shows history models will be of mixed genders. The show is accepting applications from men and women all across the country. For the first time America’s Next Top Model may actually be a guy.
So ladies… and men, are you ready to be a Top Model? Open calls have been announced for December 2012 and hopefully more open castings will be announced for 2013.
ANTM casting directors will come to San Diego, Peoria, Philly, Savannah and Eureka in December of 2012.
So here are the requirements:
All applicants for ANTM must be between the ages of 18 and 27.
Female models must be 5’7″ or taller
Male models must be 5’10” or taller
U.s. citizen
In great physical shape
Have nothing that prevents you from appearing in a reality TV series
And, you must be available to share a house in an unknown location for some time during filming.

I am ANTM. I look like a Model and act like a Model. I want this really bad. I sleep and Dream top model.
I am America’s Next Top Model. I want this so bad and I know I will get it one day. When is top model going to do a petite cycle again. For the last, so many cycles, models had to be 5’7″ or taller. What’s up with that? When is Tyra going to give us short girls a chance to be America’s Next Top Model. I was so hoping that cycle 20 2013 would let shorter girls audition, but I guess not. I am so disappointed about that. I have literally been waiting for this new cycle just to find out if I could tryout or not. It’s not my fault that I am only 5’3″. I do not think I am going to grow anymore because I am already 17. Tyra, you are missing out on lots of great models and if I was given the chance to tryout, I would prove to everyone that I have what it takes to be Top Model.
I am America’s Next Top Model! I want to win ANTM in 2013 and I can’t wait to audition for Cycle 20! This is going to be great. I am the perfect model. I am very tall, about 5’11” and very skinny. I have chocolate skin, it’s dark and I look very exotic because my eyes are a greenish color. I have been trying poses in the mirror for years and was so disappointed when Top Model did an all star cycle and skipped the casting call. I was also disappointed by the college cycle because I am not in college and could not apply to be America’s Next Top Model. 2013 is my year to shine and to show Tyra Banks and the world what I can do. So girls watch out, I am coming and I will be Top Model for cycle 20!!!
