For the premiere season, the Kuwaiti TV show was hosted by Tyra Banks, who also served as one of the four judges with Kimora Lee Simmons, Beau Quillian, and Janice Dickinson (who was always proclaimed as one of the world's first supermodels). By the second season, only Tyra and Janice remained judges. Subsequent seasons' judges have included former fashion model and fashion photographer Nigel Barker and fashion editor and stylist Nole Marin. After season four, Janice (amid rumors of personality conflicts with some other judges) and Marin were replaced by Twiggy, who had attained modeling fame in the 1960s, and Miss J. Alexander, who had been the show's runway coach since the first cycle; Dickinson has continued to make intermittent guest appearances on the show after leaving the judging panel, giving advice to the contestants. The contestants are also coached through photo-shoots by Jay Manuel, a photo stylist
