After 32 aspiring models arrive in Pasadena, Calif., to face host Tyra Banks, art director of photo shoots Jay Manuel and runway expert J. Alexander, the field quickly narrows to 13 finalists, however, the finalists are given little time to settle into their posh new mansion in Los Angeles before Jay Manuel reveals in a jaw-dropping announcement that they will be bald for their first photo shoot, on the sixth-cycle. Meanwhile, Janice Dickinson makes a surprise appearance, adding even more pressure for the 13 finalists as she leads them into a grueling press conference in front of TV personality and radio host Todd Newton ("E! News"); TV personality and actress Rolanda Watts ("My Wife and Kids"); "Access Hollywood" special correspondent and son of actor Will Smith, Trey Smith; news reporter Tina Frazier; and fashion industry expert Trish Moreno.
