Wannabe Models To Lose Weight For MTV Reality Show

Leave it to MTV to deal with the size zero issue bugging the modeling world in its own inimitable way.

The cable network is launching a new reality show called "Model Maker", which will feature aspiring models competing with each other to lose weight and be rewarded for it.

The contestant who successfully loses weight will win with $100,000, a modeling portfolio and a personal trainer for a year.

And amid the mounting criticism against the show's premise, MTV producers say the show will have the contestants achieve the weight loss 'in a healthy and realistic time span'.
