List of America's Next Top Model contestants

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of contestants who have appeared on the American television show America's Next Top Model. Contestants compete against each other to become the next top supermodel. They are judged by supermodel Tyra Banks and her panel of judges, and win a modeling contract with a top modeling agency, a cover and/or spread in a magazine, and a cosmetics campaign. The series first aired in 2003 and as of 2008, there have been ten "cycles" that have aired, with the 10th currently airing and casting for the 11th underway.[1] A total of 129 different participants have been selected as finalists in the show in its four years running, with ten models crowned "America's Next Top Model".

Contestants usually apply to be on the show, or attend casting calls, but the series has been known to recruit contestants for various seasons. For Cycle 9, winner Saleisha Stowers was recruited via Myspace[2], and Cycle 6 third runner-up Sara Albert was scouted at a mall.
