'America's Next Top Model' cycle 13: Meet the models

Go shorties, it's your cycle

Do good things always come in small packages? For the 13th season of “ANTM,” Tyra accepted only contestants 5’7” or under (the shortest being 5’3”!). These petite ladies come with big personalities and bigger dreams, so we’re sure there will be no "short"age of drama. (Sorry, we couldn't resist.)

“America’s Next Top Model” premieres Wednesday, September 9, at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
