The Competition

Throughout the competition Whitney had no problem holding her own against the other models, despite being more full-figured. Unlike many of the full-figured women who competed in cycles before her, Whitney never allowed herself to be run down or overwhelmed by her difference from the other girls. She remained proud of her body, and never compromised her sense of self-worth.

The judges did have some question at time over Whitney's sincerity, believing that she often came across more like a pageant contestant than a model, especially whenever she had to do live commercial work. In the end, Whitney's true nature emerged enough to impress them all.

America's First Full-Figure Top Model

On Wednesday, May 14, she and Anya were chosen as the final two, and went face to face in a Versace fashion show. At the end of the night after much deliberation, the judges panel finally decided and Tyra Banks announced that Whitney was America's Next Top Model.
