TV LAND BEGINS PRODUCTION ON 'SHE'S GOT THE LOOK' REALITY SERIES

Supermodel Kim Alexis Named Host of Series in Search of the Next Great 35 and Beyond Supermodel

Judges Include Supermodel Beverly Johnson, Celebrity Stylist Robert Verdi and Wilhelmina President Sean Patterson

Winner to Receive Modeling Contract with Wilhelmina Models, Inc. and Photo Spread in SELF Magazine

New York, NY, October 24, 2007 � TV Land has begun production on the new reality series She's Got The Look, the search for the next new face of the fashion industry. In partnership with Wilhelmina Models, Inc., the series � previously titled The Next Great Supermodel -- sets out to discover the next star: a woman 35 or older who exudes sophistication, beauty and confidence and wants to be a model. One winner will receive a lucrative modeling contract with Wilhelmina Models, Inc. and a feature in SELF Magazine. Iconic supermodel Kim Alexis, who has graced the cover of more than 500 magazines, will host She's Got The Look. Supermodel Beverly Johnson -- who made history as the first African-American model to grace the cover of American Vogue -- celebrity stylist Robert Verdi and Wilhelmina President Sean Patterson will be featured as judges on the series. The series is executive produced by Emmy Award-Winner Allison Grodner (Big Brother, Blowout) and is scheduled to debut in early summer 2008.

Currently filming in New York City, She's Got The Look follows 20 women -- all over the age of 35 -- vying for a modeling contract. Selected by TV Land and Wilhelmina's Model Search team after months of auditions and regional competitions around the country, the contenders have been flown to New York to live in a house together to see who has what it takes to be the next great supermodel. Through a series of competitions such as photo shoots and tests on their fashion know-how, women will be eliminated weekly until the ultimate winner is crowned.

"Real women in their 40s and 50s are too often overlooked in the scope of the TV landscape," explains Larry W. Jones, President, TV Land. "TV Land's goal is to tell the rich stories of these striking women in a fun and entertaining way."

"At Wilhelmina, we're beyond excited to use this platform to show viewers our 40-year old company's belief that beauty has no age limits and we're equally ecstatic to add another key talent to our ever expanding roster of beautiful men and women," states Sean Patterson, President of Wilhelmina.

SELF Magazine will feature She's Got The Look and showcase the contenders in an upcoming issue this Spring to coincide with the show's premiere. The winner of the series will subsequently be featured in a fashion spread at a later date. In each episode of the show, a SELF editor will offer the contenders expert Flash! Tips featuring useful advice about beauty, style, fitness and happiness.
