YOU HEARD IT right, folks! Your most loved series, America’s Next Top Model, is back with its 23rd cycle on December 13, Tuesday, at 9 PM, with satellite airing at 2pm.

Oh! I can just hear one of my closest blogger friends, the late Iyane of dsweetbox.com, screaming in excitement right now. Just that this time, he’ll be watching from heaven.

If you’re one of those fans curious about what the series will look like after VH1’s announcement of a “fierce-a-fied rebirth” for the 23rd cycle, this is the time to get even more excited about the reboot of this much-loved reality contest.

ANTM Cycle 23 returns to the series’ original all-female format. This time, though, singer Rita Ora takes over as presenter from former model and businesswoman Tyra Banks.

Ora also leads the fully revamped judging panel, joined by model Ashley Graham, Paper magazine chief creative officer Drew Elliott, and celebrity stylist Law Roach. Tyra stays on as the show’s executive producer and has hinted at a few surprise appearances of her own.
