America's Next Top Model season 20
The twentieth cycle of America's Next Top Model premiered on August 2, 2013. It was the 14th season to air on The CW. Tyra Banks, Kelly Cutrone, Bryanboy, and Rob Evans all returned as judges. As in the previous cycle, public voting was still a factor in eliminations. This was the first cycle of the show to feature male contestants. Tyra indicated in an interview that a school version called LeGore's Next Top Model, inspired her to start including male contestants. The international destination for this cycle was Bali, Indonesia, the first visit in Southeast Asia since cycle 6.
The prizes for this cycle included a modeling contract with NEXT Model Management, a spread in Nylon magazine, and a US$100,000 campaign with Guess.
The winner of the competition was 19-year-old Jourdan Miller from Bend, Oregon with Marvin Cortes placing as runner up.

Immediately after her comeback, it was revealed that one additional male contestant would also be given the opportunity to return. In episode 10, the episode following the season recap, it was revealed that Jeremy was the male model who would be returning to the competition.| Contestant | Public Vote Average | Returned in |
