Miranda Kerr is believed to be in the running for the host role on Australia's Next Top Model.
The reality television series used to be hosted by Sarah Murdoch, but she announced last year that she would be stepping down from her presenting duties.
Australia's Next Top Model judge Alex Perry told The Daily Telegraph: "Miranda would be amazing. I've worked with her for so long.
"She's a great girl and would be an icon to the girls in the competition."
When Murdoch quit her role, she said: "It has been an incredible opportunity to work on a show as exciting and popular as Australia's Next Top Model. Leaving the show has been a very difficult decision for me.
"Being entrusted to work on all aspects as host and co-executive producer has been a huge experience and I have enjoyed it so much."
Jennifer Hawkins was initially linked to the job, but her manager said that she declined because "the shooting schedule [would] tie her down too much".
It was then rumoured that Elle Macpherson would be getting involved with Australia's Next Top Model, but sources claimed that she was soon out of the running due to her commitments on Fashion Star for US network NBC.
Macpherson is also involved with Britain and Ireland's Next Top Model as host and judge, and is an executive producer on the programme.
