Strike A Pose

The next cycle of America's Next Top Model is right around the corner and we've got the lowdown on the 14 new ladies who will compete for the prize. The show returns to The CW on September 3 with a two-hour season premiere.

As always, Tyra Banks will be sitting on the judging panel along with photographer Nigel Barker and runway expert J. Alexander. This year, supermodel Paulina Porizkova will also be back to join them.

The winner of America's Next Top Model will receive a management contract from Elite Model Management. She also receives a $100,000 contract with cosmetics giant CoverGirl. Finally, the winner will appear on the cover and six-page fashion spread in Seventeen magazine.
