Foxtel have announced that FOX8 will commence auditions for Australia’s Next Top Model Series 9 later this month.
Airing in 2015, the hit television series will once again be hosted by Jennifer Hawkins and joined by Australian designer Alex Perry and model Didier Cohen as judges. Further, a guest judge will join the panel of industry experts each week in order to preserve the legacy of former judge, Charlotte Dawson and her commitment to the series.
Foxtel Executive Director of Television, Brian Walsh, said, “The whole team on the show has been deeply affected by the loss of Charlotte earlier this year. We feel the series will never be the same without her and in 2015 we will welcome a special guest judge each week to join the judging panel as in our minds Charlotte is irreplaceable.
The audition tour will kick off in Jen’s hometown of Newcastle in New South Wales, before moving on to the following locations:
