The show is also introducing its first-ever social media correspondent, top Filipino fashion blogger Bryanboy.

Judging the girls each week are Tyra, PR maven Kelly Cutrone and international supermodel Rob Evans. Another reason to be excited for this season is the addition of a new judge — the public. Yes, in the new cycle, viewers get a voice in who stays and who goes in the competition as they vote online for their favorite contestants. Their votes also offer a new twist to the show as it will allow an eliminated model the chance to return to the competition as fans vote to put their favorites back in the running.
