America’s Next Top Model Cycle 20 Begins Tonight – Now With Added Guys

It took twenty cycles, but when the new cycle of America’s Next Top Model begins tonight (August 2) at 8PM (ET) on The CW, it will be the first to feature male model contestants as it’s a competition of girls AND guys this time around.

Returning for the 20th cycle is, of course, Tyra Banks as the show’s host, a role she has had since the series first premiered on UPN.

Here are a whole lot of photos from tonight’s two-hour season premiere as well as individual photos of the show’s Cycle 20 cast — a cast which includes contestants with names like Jiana, Kanani, Renee, Nina, Jourdan, Alex, Chlea, Bianca, Jeremy, Don, Chris H., Mike, Marvin, Cory, Chris S., and Phil.

Let the new cat fights and rivalries begin!
