Overview
Super Model Centroamérica is a reality documentary that features contestants from the participating countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama that are living in a villa in Heredia, Costa Rica and do a variety of model-business-based competitions to determine who will win title Super Model Centroamérica. The show followed the format of America's Next Top Model, with Costa Rican model Leonora Jiménez taking the role of Tyra Banks in the original series as the head of the search as well as a mentor for the finalists. Cycle one premiered in August 2007, and was won by Lisseth Cáceres from Panama. In its second year, the show became a beauty-pageant style search where all significant factors of a typical "Next Top Model" show were removed. Instead, each country had its own model search where all of the national winners got a ticket for the Super Model of the World contest.
