Cycle 1

Cycle 1 of Ballyhoo's Next Top Model , also known as Cycle 1: Happy Birthday, Ballyhoo! premiered on Discord on December 17, 2023. It was the inaugural season of a grand new series, kicking off all kinds of amazing AI-generated photoshoots and kickstarting the careers of many great models to come.
The judging panel was led by Ballyhoo, who was joined by Big Top, Rokuro Yang, and Sarah. The four would go on to remain the permanent mainstay judges. This cycle is notable for not having Guest Judges, as all following cycles implemented this.
The Cycle's unique theme was Parties, with every photoshoot pre-overseas being tied to parties in some way. The Cycle's Overseas Location was London, England.
Pi-Pi was crowned as the winner of the cycle in a portfolio battle against Teksis.
