SERIES PREMIERES THIS FALL ON VH1

NEW YORK, NY (July 22, 2016) - VH1 today announced the host and judging panel for the network's upcoming reincarnation of 'America's Next Top Model,' premiering this fall. Singer, actress and entrepreneur Rita Ora will host the reinvented show with supermodel and body activist Ashley Graham, Paper Magazine Chief Creative Officer Drew Elliott and celebrity stylist and image architect Law Roach serving as judges. Show creator Tyra Banks and Ken Mok continue as executive producers of the iconic modeling competition, with Banks making surprise appearances throughout the season

Global superstar Rita Ora is a singer, actress, designer and entrepreneur who has served as a coach on BBC's 'The Voice' and as a judge on ITV's 'The X Factor.' She is an ambassador for Rimmel London and a collaborator with Adidas, as their only female musician designer for over three years. As a musician she has achieved a number one album and four number one singles in the UK and an Oscar nomination for best original song. As well as her own sold out world tours, Ora has sung at The White House for the Obamas and also at the Academy Awards. In 2015, Ora became an honorary ambassador for Kosovo, the country of her birth. Ora is an extremely influential figure in the fashion world, having been named one of the best dressed at this year's Met Gala. She is the aspirational master of her own rapidly expanding universe, yet the woman behind the brand remains fun, humble, and down-to-earth.

Supermodel, entrepreneur, and body activist Ashley Graham has appeared on the cover of numerous magazines including Cosmopolitan, Glamour and Maxim, and is the first plus size model to ever be featured on the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue. Graham has secured many high profile campaigns including H&M and Lane Bryant, and has her own lingerie line with Addition Elle, as well as a swimsuit line with swimsuitsforall and a dress collection with dressbarn. She is also a body activist and often speaks about body image, self-acceptance and female empowerment.

Drew Elliott is the Chief Creative Officer of Paper Magazine and orchestrated the famous content social distribution strategy #breaktheinternet featuring Kim Kardashian. He oversees all creative direction of Paper Magazine, Papermag.com, and the in-house agency Extra Extra and is widely recognized for his keen sense of what drives popular culture and how it impacts the masses.

Celebrity stylist and image architect Law Roach lives and breathes fashion. He revels in working with established and rising artists. Law regularly collaborates with major labels and companies. Fueled by his love for fashion, Law continues to distinguish himself as a stylist and style guru.

Debuting fall 2016, VH1's 'America's Next Top Model' preserves the DNA that viewers have come to know over the course of 22 cycles, yet the franchise has evolved to appeal to a new audience and reflect the modeling industry today.
