Caribbean's Next Top Model - also referred to as “CaribeNTM”- is a reality television competition set in the Caribbean, adapted from America's Next Top Model. The show features a group of young aspiring models, from across the Caribbean, compete for the title of Caribbean's Next Top Model and a chance to commence their career in the modeling industry. Each season is set on a new island as the competition itself makes its way across the Caribbean.

Former Miss Universe, Wendy Fitzwilliam hosts the series accompanied by her fellow judges, International Photographer Pedro Virgil and Caribbean Fashion Expert Socrates McKinney. 23 finalists from across the Caribbean (Barbados, Bahamas, Curaçao, Guadeloupe, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Cayman Islands, Antigua & Barbuda, Trinidad & Tobago, St. Lucia, Dominica, Guyana, Puerto Rico) compete in an array of challenges to become the next top model. Created to exclusively feature the Caribbean experience, CaribeNTM Season 1 was shot on location in Trinidad & Tobago and Season 2 was shot on location in Barbados.

Featured guests appearing throughout the show include: International Photographer Matthew Jordan Smith; World-renowned Stylist and Fashion Pundit Freddie Leiba; International Model Lene Hall and Teresa Lourenco; Music Producer Bryce Wilson; Fashion Designer Claudia Pegus; Former NFL Player Quentin Groves; Soca musician Machel Montano; International Actress/Dancer/ Choreographer/Motion Capture Artist Dani Swan. CaribeNTM aired across nearly 30 Caribbean territories during primetime programming from February to May 2013 and October- December 2015.
