Upfronts: CW and Tyra team up again

05:06 PM PT, May 11 2008

J9232cnc_250 Tyra Banks and Ken K. Mok, the masterminds behind the "America's Next Top Model" franchise, are teaming up on another CW reality series. "Stylista" will follow contestants working as assistants to Elle magazine fashion news director Anne Slowey. Think "The Fashionista Diaries" meets "The Apprentice." The grand prize includes a paid editorial position at Elle.

This is Banks' second reality venture for the upcoming season. We previously informed you of the ABC reality series she is co-producing with Ashton Kutcher's Katalyst Films, which centers on a beauty pageant--with a twist. That series has now been titled "Opportunity Knocks."
