Last night, CBS Studios International announced that they have given Nigerian supermodel Oluchi’s production company, LuLu Productions the African format rights for hit reality TV show competition, ‘America’s Next Top Model’.

The Reality show competition series, which will be shot primarily on location in South Africa, is slated to hit screens this 2013.
And will air on the M-NET Africa Magic channels with Oluchi Orlandi serving as the show’s host and executive producer.

Here’s what Oluchi had to say:“I am excited to be hosting Africa’s Next Top Model and it is great to be part of the successful America’s Next Top Model franchise that Tyra Banks created and has hosted for an impressive 20 cycles thus far in the U.S.

The African version of the franchise is long overdue and I expect the show to be a smashing success across the continent.
My company, LuLu Productions, will be partnering with Never Machine productions with Gavin Wratten as co-executive producer and also one of the giant media houses to help make this show a big success.”
