Make Me A Supermodel

On January 2, 2008, Bravo will air the casting special for Make Me A Supermodel, another in the current riches of reality television shows to feature male models. Can I handle getting involved with another one? Hell, yeah! This season there was America's Most Smartest Model and then The Janice Dickinson Modeling Agency and now this one. The beauty of the genre is a lot of shots of the guys in next to nothing (or just nothing on JDMA). My preference would be for all reality shows to adopt this characteristic. Wouldn't Amazing Race be even more interesting with teams of male models running through airports in bikini briefs? And surely the boardroom would be spiced up on The Apprentice if the male contestants lined up at the table exposing all of their qualifications in smart looking birthday suits.

From BravoTv.com: "In a casting special, the 24 finalists will be whittled down to the 14 models that will ultimately compete for $100,000 and a modeling contract with New York Model Management. During the run of the series, Bravo viewers will vote each week to determine who stays to walk the 'Supermodel' catwalk again and who goes home. Over a 12-week period, 14 hopefuls will live together in a New York City loft and explore friendships, romance and naked ambition while undergoing a series of creative challenges designed to test their professional modeling potential."

My favorites are Ben DiChiara, Perry Ullmann, and Ronnie Kroell, Jr. (whose former boyfriend was an adult film star). I had also liked Dominic Prietto and Igor Galijasevic. I hope all of them make it through the casting special.
