Rita Ora steps up as the next face to host the most prestigious televised model search in the country "America's Next Top Model." Will she follow the footprints of Tyra Banks or create her own?
The answer is both as the pop singer vows to pursue Tyra Bank's legacy in the show while making her own with also a new set of panel. Ora even said to Entertainment Tonight that Banks is the queen and her taking place as the new host of "ANTM" is never meant to fill in anyone's shoes.
ET Online also stated that according to the "Body on Me" singer, Tyra banks, being the show's executive producer, will still be involved. Rita Ora even dropped a scene where Banks will have an appearance at the beginning of the new season of "ANTM".
The British singer actress even shared her experiences as host, saying she really wanted to find a superstar who can compete in the industry as well as in social media. Ora also said she is "looking for a superstar in all bounderies".
Rita Ora began her singing career in 2012 with her debut album Ora being the top one in United Kingdom and made her the artist with most number one singles on the 2012 UK chart. She also became part of "The Voice UK" as one of the coaches in 2015 and judged "The X-Factor" later in the same year.
Meanwhile, American model Ashley Graham will also join the next leg of the "America's Next Top Model." Graham will be part of the panel of judges along with stylist Law Roach and Paper Magazine's chief creative officer Drew Elliott.
The lingerie model also shared that Banks and her frequently exchange text messages about the show. Ashley said Tyra has been supportive and uplifting, by sending her some encouraging voice memos.
Ashley is a model for a plus-size clothing store Lane Bryant and is making name for advocating body image and acceptance. She also appeared in several magazines such as Vogue, Glamour, Harper's Bazaar and Elle. Her appearance in the "America's Next Top Model" will surely bring a new twist on the show with her judging style being not too soft and not too harsh as per ET's report.
