'Rupaul's Drag Race' Meets 'ANTM'?

'America's Next Top Model' is bringing some fan favorite queens from RuPaul's Drag Race onto season 24 which premieres in January 9th. EW.com is reporting that Tyra Banks will be bringing in Manila, Katya and Valentina. They will be doing a photoshoot challenge with contestants they are paired with.

Tyra says

“They’re so friggin’ gorgeous and can pose their asses off,” says Banks, who hasn’t hosted ANTM since 2015, relinquishing her duties to pop star Rita Ora for the program’s debut season on VH1. “That’s a difficult model to be in a shot with.… Not all of my models prevailed. Valentina killed it. I’m sitting there editing film and I’m like, can I get a shot of my girls looking at least half as good as Valentina?”

Gag! 😱 @ANTMVH1 is back and fiercer than ever bringing you some QUEENS this season!! 👑 Stay on the lookout for @manilaluzon, @katya_zamo, and @AllOfValentina on the new season of #ANTM!! 🙌 Returns TUES JAN 9 at 8/7c on @VH1! ✨ https://t.co/cZr3Y0vIMp
