A shocking new reality show will see wannabe models compete against each other to lose weight and achieve their dream.

Model Maker will reward the girl who successfully loses weight with $100,000, a modelling portfolio and a personal trainer for a year.

MTV producers say the show will achieve the weight loss 'in a healthy and realistic time span' but is this really the kind of publicity the fashion industry needs at the moment?
