Aspiring models pay attention. MTV is working on “Model Makers,” a new “transformation makeover” reality show.

Here’s the news release.

 Have you always wanted to model but don’t know where to start? Maybe you don’t know the right people. Maybe you are not thin enough. Maybe you are not photogenic.  “Model Makers” will give you the ultimate makeover and transform you into the model of your dreams.

 Women come in all shapes and sizes, but models don’t. The term model conjures an image of stick-thin, towering beauties oozing confidence, glamour, poise and sexuality from every pore. “Skinny,” “no body fat,” and “size zero” are the words and phrases associated with models. “Chubby,” “well-fed,” and “big- boned” are not … until now!

Fifteen women from across the country will get the opportunity of a lifetime when MTV hands them over to model manager Michael Flutie and an expert team of trainers, nutritionists, stylists and other industry leaders. Under the watchful “eye” of these experts, models will endure 12 weeks of intensive physical fitness training to help them get down to their ideal size. Models will also compete in various high fashion challenges to determine who has star quality. With weekly eliminations looming, models must put their best foot forward at all times while staying focused on losing weight.

The MTV prize package includes:
* $100,000
* A professional modeling portfolio
* A personal trainer for one year
* The chance to jumpstart the career of your dreams

 So what does it take to get on the show?  “We are looking for beautiful, charismatic women who are willing to put in the effort to become a true model,” says Michael Flutie.
