The good folks at KPLR have the first pics of Cycle 14's Top Model hopefuls. We're going back to the regular tall, skinny model types after last season's itty-bitty models experiment. We have no idea whether or not Tyra will be breaking out her Supermodel Superhero gear to defend regular models, but we live in hope.

We also hope for better styling, because the initial pics of these girls... well, they're not good. They're dressed like supervillains who got their powers after being bitten by a radioactive Jane Fonda Workout video, or aerobics instructors who spend time pole dancing onthe weekends. We are, to quote fashion maven Tim Gunn, concerned.

And we can't wait to hear what fashion legend André Leon Talley has to say about it all. The renowned fashion powerhouse will be joining Tyra, Nigel and a rotating guest judge on the panel this season, and we expect great things. Unfortunately, it means that Miss J will not be judging... but will be mentoring the models all season long. That means the opportunity for scathing commentary increases exponentially!

What do you think of this Cycle's crop of hopefuls? What are you expecting from Miss J as a mentor and La Talley as a judge? Talk about it in the comments!
