Age ain't nothing but a number—Tyra Banks says so!
The supermodel and mogul announced via Instagram that the next cycle of America's Next Top Model will not have an age limit. Previously, Elle reported, the competition did not allow models over the age of 27 to compete.
"Know what I hear all the time? 'Tyra, come on! Why have an age limit," Banks said in her Instagram video. "So you know what? I'm taking that age limit off. You want to audition for America's Next Top Model? I don't care how old you are, honey, you just need to know how to smize and be open to learning how to work the runway like a supermodel."
This isn't the first time that Banks has amended the requirements to be on ANTM. According to Elle, during cycle 22, Banks abandoned the show's height requirement. Although there is no age ceiling now, contestants will still need to be 18 or older to be cast in the show.
