"America's Next Top Model" Search Here Tuesday

Have you ever been to a nude beach? What accomplishment are you most proud of? What would you do if you became famous from a TV show? Who's your favorite supermodel? The smart answer to the last question would be Tyra Banks.... if you're a woman age 18-27, and planning to attend an open casting call for "America's Next Top Model" Tuesday at the Cincinnati Museum Center.

A casting director from Bank's popular CW show will be at the Museum Center 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Tuesday. The show is looking for women ages 18-27, and at least 5'-7". However, producers say they're looking for a variety of models, including plus size, according to the application at www.cincw.com.

The 15-page application has 72 questions, including those about being to a nude beach, becoming famous, favorite accomplishments, favorite supermodel, and what three items you'd take into the "Top Model" house.

If producers select a woman from this process, she wouldn't be the first area contestant on the show. Shannon Stewart, a 2003 Franklin High School graduate from Warren County's Franklin Township, was one of the top three finalists the first season (2004).

"America’s Next Top Model" airs 8 p.m. Wednesday on the WKRC-TV’s digital CinCW station (Insight and DirecTV Channel 25, Time Warner Channel 20).
