I’ve tried and tried to imagine ANTM without Nigel and the Jays, and I can no sooner see a world in which Tyra Banks herself takes leave of the longtime modeling competition. Mostly, I’m beside myself over Nigel’s imminent departure: what will America’s Next Top Model do without America’s Next Top Dreamhunk? And what will Nigel do without ANTM?
The changes will take effect next season, which will be the show’s nineteenth. The New York Post reports that Tyra & co. are planning to better integrate social media with the series, and have already reached out to prominent blogger and man-about-Intertown Bryanboy. “Cool.”
I can find only one upside to this development: maybe now, some bruised soul (I’m looking at you, Nigel) will finally disclose why Angelea Preston was disqualified from ANTM.
