    Tyra Banks and "America's Next Top Model," watch out! Bravo's modeling competition show, "Make Me a Supermodel," is back for a second season premiering tonight! The show will be hosted by the dashing model Tyson Beckford and feature judges such as French fashion designer Catherine Malandrino and one of my favorite models from the '90s, Jenny Shimizu. Sixteen aspiring supermodels will be competing to win the title, $100,000 and a contract with New York Model Management. Will you be cheering for tall, lanky and geeky med school bound Colin? Or are you placing your bets on Amanda, a single mom who lost all her baby weight gain in only a month? Watch the video and see these budding models already half naked and preparing to be measured. I certainly don't envy them for that nerve-wracking experience! Be sure to watch the rest of the show every Wednesday at 10/9c on Bravo!

    Make Me A Supermodel has taken us on quite a ride. We laughed, we cried, we voted, we empathized, and most importantly, we learned valuable lessons about the modeling industry: it's ruthless and NOT glamorous (however, something tells me this won't stop thousands of people all over the country from pursuing a career in this cutthroat industry). Now the ride is over - America voted and decided to make innocent, wide-eyed country girl Holly into a supermodel. And now for the inevitable question: Will the hosts be back for Season 2?

    On the show Make Me A Supermodel, host Niki Taylor always seems so soft spoken and sweet. And this isn€™t just an act for the cameras. I€™ve interviewed her several times and she's almost unfathomably nice! To celebrate the final episode, which airs tonight, we had all you Stylehivers call the shots and come up with questions to ask Niki and Tyson. So far we€™ve heard what they had to say about the modeling industry, what it takes to make it, the contestants, and so forth, but you all wanted to delve a little deeper, and wanted to know what Niki is REALLY like. And seriously, who better to ask than her tells-it-like-it-is co-host Tyson Beckford. Read on for his surprising answer!

    It€™s no secret that the modeling industry has changed A LOT since models like Tyson Beckford, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell and co ruled the runways, and the changes haven€™t necessarily been for the better, that€™s Tyson€™s stance at least. On the show Make Me A Supermodel, the contestants were pushed to the limits and the bitter reality of life as a model - that you can go from so-hot to so-not in a matter of minutes - was drilled into their pretty little heads week after week. This wasn€™t merely for the sake of good TV, it was truly to prepare the contestants for the tough road that lay ahead. Stylehivers wanted to know what Tyson thinks about today€™s world of modeling. We asked, and he candidly weighed in. Click READ MORE for Tyson€™s response.

    Ask Tyson: How Do You Develop The Confidence To Deal With ...

    On the show Make Me A Supermodel, the contestants are told week after week that the modeling industry is fraught with rejection and no matter how hot you are, you WILL hear the word no, a lot. According to show co-host Tyson Beckford, it€™s not the face or body, it€™s skin that can make or break the model: €œA thick skin is definitely most important because you've gotta be able to take rejection." That€™s fine and dandy, but how exactly does one develop this confidence to handle the rejection and keep going? You guys wanted to know, so we asked. Read on for Tyson€™s answer.
