Top Model Judge Shuffling: Twiggy's Out, Paulina's In

Paulina PorizkovaZap2it.com reports that Cycle 9 is Twiggy's last as a judge on America's Next Top Model. Beginning with Cycle 10, Paulina Porizkova will join Miss J, Nigel, and Tyra behind the judges' table.

When we first saw the headline and read Zap2it's lead sentence: ""America's Next Top Model" has traded Twiggy for a younger model ... literally," we thought Twiggy'd been booted for being too old, irrelevant, or both. But the article goes on to say that she's leaving due to scheduling conflicts.

Anyway, we want to know what you think. Will you miss Twiggy's contributions at panel, or do you think it's high time she was replaced? Are you excited to see what Paulina has to offer, or would you have preferred someone else, and if so -- who? Tell us your take on Twiggy's departure!

The CW Star of the Week: Twiggy

TwiggyBirth name: Leslie Hornby

How did she get her nickname? The label refers to the thin frame she had back in the '60s that made her the most popular model of her time.

Where is she now? She's now a judge on America's Next Top Model, two-hour network premiere Wednesday, September 20 at 8/7c!

Why we heart her: It's tempting to hate the woman who started the skinny model trend, but let's face it - it wouldn't have exploded if a good number of people didn't embrace it. She's also a Tony Award-nominated actress and singer, and almost no one has aged as gracefully as she has. Must be that good attitude of hers, which is apparent on the ultra-competitive Top Model.

Did you know? She dedicates her spare time to anti-fur campaigning and raising breast cancer awareness. Angelina Jolie ain't the only one doing good, people!
