Tyra Banks is looking to do for the entire country what she’s done for the model wannabes on her reality show—minus the cramped quarters, petty arguments and questionable eating habits.
The CW has given the greenlight to Operation Fabulous, the first spinoff series for the fiercest show in prime time, set to be produced by Banks herself.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the new pilot will essentially expand on one of the most popular elements of Top Model—the model makeover episode—and apply its transformative powers to women across the country.
Top Model mentors Jay and J—as in Manuel and Alexander, for the uninitiated—will partner up to host the show and make pit stops in various towns across the country.
At each stop, they’ll have the dubious task of choosing the location’s five least-fashionable femmes (sorry, fellas) and give them head-to-toe makeovers by teaching them how to dress, style their hair and apply their makeup with all the confidence of, well, Tyra, hopefully.
While it’s the first official spinoff for the series, it’s the second ANTM-related project Banks has announced plans for this week.

The exercise in fierce that was last night’s America’s Next Top Model signaled the end of the runway for not one but two wannabe posers.
Hannah was the first to go due to her lackluster strutting skills, after the Jays held a surprise elimination catwalk competition.
But the big news was that following the actual challenge, the show’s first transgender competitor and the most talked about contestant of the season, Isis, was given the stilettoed boot for what Tyra Banks called an uninspired performance.

Let’s face it. The clients, especially the blue chip ones are the stars of fashion now and it’s their choices, selections and bookings that make and break models today.

From the daily call sheets of photographers like Steven Meisel, Mario Testino, Mert n Marcus, Craig McDean, David Sims,Inez and Vinoodh and Steven Klein for clients like US, Italian, French and British Vogue, W, V, Numero,Bazaar,Pop and Another can be culled a clear message about who are the most wanted models of the moment.

It is also brands like Prada, Vuitton, Chanel, Dior, Calvin Klein, Estee Lauder, Lancome and Maybelline among others who provide the platform that makes stars of models. In an increasingly competitive market, flooded with hundreds of “cool editorial girls”, its the campaigns and contracts that are the final index of how crucial a model is at any given moment.
