Atlanta's Next Top Model, Cycle 6

Atlanta's Next Top Model Cycle 6 is the sixth season of Atlanta's Next Top Model. It marks the first time that the show has switched broadcasting networks, from The FSHN Network to VTV. The series premiered on Wednesday, July 21, 2010.

This cycle marks the biggest changes in the series so far.

The judging panel has changed drastically after Kirsty Lenans was allegedly "fired" just a week prior to the filming of Cycle 6. Replacing her is Reiden "Rul" Lassen, a renowned major fashion show director in Europe. After being criticized for her "condescending demeanour" by various fashion elite, Sophie Q has decided to retire from the modeling world at the age of 31, and has quit her post as the host and executive producer of the show. The new permanent host was decided to be Taylor Vanderburgliesse, who was a part of the judging panel since Cycle 4. There will be another new addition to the judging panel, Selina Li, celebrity stylist and fashion editor. The final judge is Kora Preobrazhensky, who will reprise his position.

Although the agency that will manage the winner remains to be IMG Model Management, the winner will receive the opportunity to meet with Chris Gay (president of Marilyn NY) and Louis Chabon (president of Women's NY).

Revlon has decided to cut ties with Atlanta's Next Top Model after Sophie Q said some bad things about them. This caused some huge controversy, but also some major publicity. The winner will now receive the chance to shoot international ads for Fekkai (hair), Lola by Marc Jacobs, and a $50 000 contract with Dior (for Diorshow Mascara). She will also meet international supermodel Lara Stone. In addition, the winner will be on the cover of Vogue Magazine, and receive a 2-page editorial spread within. Finally, for the first time ever, the runner-up too will receive a prize, which consists of a 2-page editorial spread within Elle Canada.

Contestants eligible in the contest must be at least 5'7" in height. The age limit is 16 to 27. Additionally (a requirement not clearly stated beforehand), contestants should not have appeared in any major national or international campaigns and/or ads in the last 3 years. There are no weight restrictions this cycle. It is the first time since Cycle 2 that the number of contestants eligible to be in the house has increased. 16 girls now make it in the house as finalists to compete.

This cycle's overseas international fashion destination is ____________________, ____________________.

The promotional tag line/motto for this cycle is "Work."

The final 2 contestants will once again make it to a live finale where the audience and general public may vote for the winner (though they do not decide who ultimately becomes the winner, as they are just accounted for as one additional vote to the judges' votes in the finale). Prior to the finale, the models will go on go-sees themselves to determine the final catwalks they will walk in for the finale judging. A finalist may book all jobs or no jobs - it is up to them.

In the end, ____________________ was crowned the sixth Atlanta's Next Top Model on ____________________.
