CW Television has posted pre-show interview of all the contestants on Cycle 11 of America’s Next Top Model! It’s a great way to get to know the girls.
Analeigh was discovered online. She’s looking forward to participating in the photo shoots and getting a makeover. She thinks her personality will make her stand out from all of the other girls and her plan is to stay positive throughout the whole competition.

I think Analeigh is really cute and will be fun to watch on the show. She moves her hands a lot when she talks!

The recent MySpace thug video got me thinking about the various America’s Next Top Model contestants who have parlayed into music. Not starring in music videos–making them.
I can only think of three—Tyra Banks herself, Lisa D’Amato, and Sarah Vonderhaar. Can you think of any more?
first up, we have Tyra and her infamous “Shake Ya Body” video. Tyra completely financed this project herself and one of the challenges in the second season of ANTM was starring in this video. While I appreciate Tyra’s attempt at music, I’m glad she found her true calling in the talk show world.

More great videos–and a …read more

Three major English-language Top Model franchises have named their winners. America’s Next Top Model has a cycle in the works for the fall (Cycle 11 premieres September 3 on the CW), but both Britain’s Next Top Model and Australia’s Next Top Model traditionally do one cycle per year.

America and Australia both crowned controversial winners this year. America’s Whitney Thompson is thought to have only won because Tyra has an agenda and it “was time” for a plus-sized model to win. Australia’s Demelza Reveley was called a bully throughout the show, and her …read more

I find that the seasons of America’s Next Top Model can vary. It really depends on the types of girls they choose, the photo shoots and challenges they have and more. Surely one season stands out at the worst one in your mind!

The season I liked the least was Cycle 8. As hilarious as Natasha was (she saved the season for me), she wasn’t top model material. And the very fact Jaslene Gonzalez was cut the previous cycle, only to come back and win really demonstrated the lack of talent …read more

Last week, I asked you which ANTM winner was your favorite and Adrianne Curry came out on top (thanks, in part, to a plug she put on her MySpace). This week, I want to ask: which winner is your least favorite?
There have been 10 winners of America’s Next Top Model. Some, like Yoanna House and Eva Pigford have gone on to achieve moderate levels of fame. Some, like CariDee English are parlaying their fame into being a spokesperson for a cause. Others are pretty much nobodies, popping up a low-caliber events and random modeling shoots.
There have been some really close …read more

The winners of America’s Next Top Model have been very diverse, from “tough girls” like Adrianne Curry to “sweeties” like Saleisha Stowers and everyone in between.
There’s been short winners, like Eva Pigford, tall winners, like Yoanna House and Dani Evans. Some winners, like Yoanna and Eva, have turned their winner into moderately successful television and film careers, others, like Nicole Linkletter and Naima Mora faded into modeling obscurity.
Regardless of where they are now, I’m sure everyone has a favorite winner, a girl they rooted for from the beginning and cheered for when she was named “America’s next top …read more

I’ve been watching America’s Next Top Model since the beginning. I have to say that the second season, with Yoanna, Shandi, April and Camille was my favorite.
Some beautiful photos were produced that season and it was before the show got tons of production money so it was more true-to-life than lots of the past seasons have been. And it did give us one of the most dramatic moments in ANTM history–Shandi cheating on her boyfriend. Some of my favorite photos ever on ANTM appeared in this season–Yoanna’s motorcycle shot and Shandi’s sunglasses shot are just two examples.

This season, we’ve already seen supermodels Elle Macpherson and Vendela. What other supermodels would you love to see make an appearance on America’s Next Top Model/?

A few suggestions:
Iman: She’ll make hilarious jokes about Fatima and critique everyone in a totally awesome way.
Giselle Bundchen: She’d be super bored and do nothing productive, except maybe roll her eyes occasionally.
Linda Evangelista: They need her on the makeover episode! She changes her hair every day!
Naomi Campbell: On panel. With Tyra. I think I’ve said enough.
Who do you want to see? Who wouldn’t …read more
