The event is Africa’s version of
hit reality TV show competition, America’s Next Top Model by Tyra Banks.
The show will be hosted by Oluchi
Orlandi in far away South Africa, but currently she is scouting the continent for
models for the big project.
Oluchi was born in 1982 and rose to
fame in 1998 when she won the maiden edition of the Face of Africa model
contest at age 17. She has since worked with designers, John Galiano,
Christian
Dior, Chanel and her designer husband, Luca Orlandi.
She currently runs her production
outfit, LuLu
Productions which will produce the African version of the
America’s Next Top Model reality show.
CBS Studios International has licensed the
African format rights for the reality competition series, America’s Next Top
Model, to New York-based LuLu Productions.
Africa’s Next Top Model will be
produced by Lulu Productions along with Never Machine Productions and will air
pan-regionally throughout Africa in 2013 on MNET Africa Magic channels.
Nigerian supermodel Oluchi Orlandi will serve as Executive Producer and host.
