Lauren Conrad and Kim Kardashian can't get enough of reality TV! The stars will appear as guest judges in the upcoming season of America's Next Top Model. Selected because of their presence in the fashion community, the two will critique the fourteen girls competing in the hit CW show's 13th cycle.

The former Hills star -- who debuts her LC Lauren Conrad clothing line for Kohl's this fall -- will appear on the Sept. 16 episode. Kardashian, who opened a designer clothing store on Keeping Up With the Kardashians, will serve as a judge alongside host Tyra Banks, Nigel Barker and J. Alexander on Oct. 21.

Other guest judges slated for the upcoming season include runway model Chanel Iman, Seventeen editor Ann Shoket and several petite models. (For the first time in ANTM history, the competitors are all 5'7" or shorter.)

America's Next Top Shorty?
Tyra Banks is trying something new and doing away with the minimum height requirement for models (5'9 without shoes). Because for applicants to Cycle 13 of America's Next Top Model, the show is putting in place a MAXIMUM height requirement on its contestants: a whopping 5 feet, 7 inches.

“There have been top supermodels in the past that weren’t as tall as the industry demands, like fashion icon Kate Moss (height 5'6 and a half),” said Tyra Banks in a press release announcing the casting call. “So we are changing up ‘Top Model’ for cycle 13 and making it a year for the shorter model!” Wow. 

The NEW season of America's Next Top Model (Cycle 12) kicks off on March 4.
