Britain's "Beauty Season"


An article found here introduces a new show in the UK based on the "next top model" franchise. The show features eight models who have some sort or severe disability. Says the article "The show's creators hoped the series would challenge pre-conceived notions of beauty and raise disability awareness." I agree that it will challenge preconceived notions about disability, but I'm not convinced it isn't just a ratings grab. (UPDATE: Series Complete - Official Website HERE)
