Though producers were rumored to have approached fashion bloggers like Bryanboy to give the show a more modern and high-tech twist, the next cycle will instead feature a different interactive angle.
"Fierce news, Fam, the newest addition to America's Next Top Model is you!" Banks has revealed on Facebook. "Cycle 19's judging panel will include your votes, comments, and video messages. You will have a say in which models stay ... and who goes home.
"Twice a week, starting Thursday, May 24th, you'll be able to use our Voting App to rank and sound off on all 13 models' best photos. Your input will shape the competition and you'll be able to see it play out in the Fall. It's time for your voice to be heard; today on social media and soon on the show itself!"
"I know u get mad when we send girls home on ANTM," Banks added on Twitter. "So get ur judging smize on bc for Cycle 19, you help make the choices!"
Yay. Can our first order of business be bringing Nigel back?
