André Out, Kelly In
After a four-season run, larger-than-life fashion figure André Leon Talley announced that
this season would be his last on "America's Next Top
Model," proving that it's a slog to keep up with the likes of Tyra Banks. The Vogue editor brought
instant industry ... more credibility to the show, which had in recent years failed to
produce breakout modeling stars. He joins a list of famous former judges,
including Janice Dickinson, Twiggy and Paulina Porizkova. André departure is
certainly a loss for viewers, who are likely hungry for a personality who can
stand up to Tyra and her outrageous histrionics on the panel. Perhaps that
person, at last, will be Kelly Cutrone, his confirmed replacement, who in her
time on "Kell on Earth," "The
Hills" and "The City" has proved to be no wilting lily. Viewers know she
won't hesitate to put the models in their place, but will she do the same with
Tyra?
