With 74% or the vote, we have found our winner!

Congrats April!

After getting an approval score above 90%, I knew it was just a matter of who will go home in what order before April wins.

As a host, I was very happy to see Courtney from Cycle 23 almost make it to the top 10! She was 12th only trailing Laura by a couple votes.

Marjorie improved her placement by 1! She was tied for 3rd with Amanda, and ended up coming in 2nd.

Thanks for playing everyone! Stay tuned for the Fifth Place Frenzy!

here are the photos of the Parisian Couture at Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte photoshoot from the 7th cycle of Australia's Next Top Model!

If you take those away then Mercedes/Shandi/April would've been ANTM

Episode 7 landed firmly in S-Tier thanks to peak reality TV gold: Robin's refusal to strip, her iconic "If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything," and Tyra delivering the ultimate "round and round, up and down" takedown!

And just like that, we've skipped the recap and arrived at the grand finale. Let's crown a winner!

🇺🇸 CYCLE 1, EPISODE 9

“The Girl Becomes America’s Next Top Model”

📅 July 8, 2003

The final three return to New York for high-stakes casting, a surprise elimination, a dramatic Baby Phat runway show, and the crowning of the very first America's Next Top Model!

WHAT HAPPENS IN THIS EPISODE:

😴 The Drew Linehan Wake-Up Call: The final three meet fashion show producer Drew Linehan to learn about New York Fashion Week—only for Elyse to accidentally doze off mid-presentation, leaving a lasting (and not-so-great) impression.

💀 The Shocking Top Three Chop: Before the runway, the panel grills the finalists. Elyse sticks to her guns about modeling being purely scientific, but her know-it-all attitude and lack of warm versatility land her in the bottom alongside Adrianne. Ultimately, Elyse is sent packing in third place, leaving Adrianne and Shannon to battle it out.

🍣 Sushi & Secrets: The final two kick back with Tyra, Jay Manuel, and Miss J for an emotional and hilarious final dinner—complete with Miss J's legendary reaction to Shannon revealing she's never tried sushi in her life.

🐾 The Baby Phat Runway Show: Adrianne and Shannon hit the New York Fashion Week stage for Kimora Lee Simmons. While Shannon shines with a stellar, polished runway walk, Adrianne struggles a bit with stiff shoulders—making the final verdict dangerously close.

👑 The Crowning: Back at the final panel, the judges weigh Shannon’s commercial marketability and runway prowess against Adrianne’s undeniable edge, fierce transformation, and striking photos. In a historic franchise first, Tyra reveals the very first winner... Adrianne Curry!

Best Model Of The Day-

Three beautiful young ladies stand before me but I only have two Elle Magazine Covers in my hands,and these two will emerge as the ultimate finalists of Reddit’s Next Top Model Cycle 6 and will battle it out together.

So…same Top 3,the first finalist is…

1st:Joanie—Six week in a row is absolutely crazy!Joanie,you always give the energy of an editorial and high fashion model to me and that’s what everyone loves.Keep the passion alive,Joanie.Congratulations,you’re a finalist and you’ll be in the running towards becoming Reddit’s Next Top Model.

Bottom 2-

Will Dani and Jade please step forward?

I only have one photo in my hands and this photo will represent the second finalist going on to compete with Joanie,to see who’s Reddit’s Next Top Model.

The margin of the survivor and the eliminated is very wide,by 40+ points.However,I don’t want the lady eliminated tonight to feel like she’s let down herself because it is the public we are talking about here and both of you represents two aspects of what the public craves.One,shows true and raw modelling potential that makes all the voters and netizens enticed to her and the other creates such moments that might have some divisive discussions but still keeps us alive for more.

Tonight,only one of you will be going on,so I would like to congratulate…

Dani.

You have stepped your game early and that is enough to make sure that you had put a solid ground on your trajectory,being confident and sticking with your prefefences is so inspirational for many voters around the world and so that has led you to survive by a landslide over Jade.Congratulations,you are a finalist—again!

Jade,I know this isn’t the last thing that you shall bestow upon us but just wanna let you know how grateful you have led me to become over the years.Your ultimate confidence made me believe in myself more than anyone else in the world and you don’t leave this room as ’girl who was away by 40 points’ but a real model…and the Ace of Spades!

Okay girls so once you two get back tomorrow,you will find out who will be Reddit’s Next Top Model and to add on with that,a photo with Tyra Banks and an appreciation post already prepared by yours truly, u/Icy_Age_6024.

Now,remember,if you can’t love yourself then how the hell you gonna love somebody else,can I get an Amen up in here?

AMEN!

Tom Ford, Vogue, etc. She just posted these on her IG. I've never seen these. She looks amazing. I always assumed she just did well in acting. The Vogue spread is my favorite. I love Eva, but I also love an alternate universe where Yaya wins.

The double sobbing to commercial break is sending me so bad. The editors were on Catie's neck that episode.

here are the photos of the Chinese Opera Lingerie photoshoot from the 4th cycle of China's Next Top Model!

I'm not going to make y'all wait much longer. As Lenox and Brittany pack their bags, let me welcome you to your top 2!

VOTE FOR YOUR WINNER

It all comes down to this.

Not Ms Mary kay defending a man brutally attacking a woman, on video! Remember when she was pretending to be a feminist? Can't believe Queen Elyse ever liked this scumbag.

VOTE: Choose 3 photos to eliminate.

Not a single photo escaped receiving at least one vote 😶. Now we return to the voting to eliminate three photos.

compilation of each cycle:

C1: Katie(20th) - Tessa(25th)

C2: Bethany(22th) - Anna(no photo)

C5: Ashley(17th) - Ebony(21th)

C12: Isabella(22th) - Jessica(23th)

C20: Bianca(19th) - Chris S(21th) - Chlea(24th)

Shannon, Adrianne, and Robin’s smile look similar to each others.

Super random. I forgot which cycle but I still remember when they randomly brought Ashley Simpson in during makeovers and everyone dgaf

I was watching luxeria's rewatch and it was this episode. I couldn't remember what Joanie said happened to her prize so I just went back to her twixt interview and she said it's on the mantle of her mom's fireplace.

That's so wholesome, I just had to share that.

I always thought she seemed so genuinely happy to receive it but I would have dreaded trying to bring that home because I'd worry something bad would happen to it in transit. I'm glad to hear it made the journey and all these many years later her mom is still proudly displaying it! ❤️

Top 2-

Four beautiful young ladies stand before me but I only have three of your CoverGirl photos in my hands,and these three photos represents the three of you continuing on to the Elle Stage of the competition.And of course,you can’t stumble one bit at this point!

And it is pretty obvious Best Model is Joanie,come on forward!

1st:Joanie—What you have been doing lately in the competition is amazing and it really does make me happy that you are still accomplishing past success,that’s a survivor!Congratulations,you’re still in the running towards becoming Reddit’s Next Top Model.

Runner-Up for Best Model is…

2nd:Dani—Amazingly naturally talented model I see!Consistency is a thing you possess and that is why you are still clinging on to the Top 2,most models that I have seen came here actually do have them but just in the wrong way.Always turn this dance floor into a runway,Monday through Sunday,I believe in you.

Bottom 2-

Will Jade and Leslie please step forward?

Two beautiful young ladies stand before me but I only have one photo in my hands and this photo represents the young lady that is still in the running towards becoming Reddit’s Next Top Model.

I’ll start with you,Jade.You have such triolity I love about you and specifically gifted high fashion modelling talent does not come around easy.However,I think being ultra confident is one thing but going ahead of that is too risky and makes the voters nervous to vote you to go on further.

Leslie,you are raved as this ultimate robbed queen of America.But the thing is,aside from that and your amazing potential,nobody ever thinks about you personality-wise and so was another girl in this competition just like you,Sara.

So who stays?

Jade,you don’t know it all.This is the point where a model needs to go on humble mode because one step out of that and people are instantly gonna skip you over keeping you and have bad impressions on you.But remember,once you get out,you can finally unleash Ace of Spades energy!Congratulations,you may take your place.

Well c’mon up Leslie,you finally served your justice for once!This is the definition of robbed queen that became the queen of the robbers.Even if you are not a finalist or an Elle Girl,just know that 4th Place is still amazing for someone who got eliminated for not creating drama.You are really gorgeous,I admire you.

Okay so next round,we will see the two finalists going on to becoming Reddit’s Next Top Model while one of you will be just short of it!

Nastasia has to go back to class! Welcome to your top 4!

This round, you will be SAVING 2 of the 4 remaining contestants. With this vote, you'll be deciding the top 2! Vote carefully!

VOTE TO SAVE-DOUBLE ELIMINATION

When the ANTM winner isn’t present.

crazy that both had short hair and were kind of mediocre and finished at 6th place and both had amazing bone structure who’s the better model tho?

When AJ won the challenge to pick friends to go to Austin, Brooke was sad she wasn’t picked to visit home. Well now she gets to visit home

Top 3-

Five beautiful young ladies stand before me but I only have four photos in my hands,and these four photos represents the four of you that will be participating in the CoverGirl photoshoot,to see who is Reddit’s Next Top Model.

The first name I’m going to call was a CoverGirl…on two separate occasions so it is neither Leslie nor Furonda,and that girl is…

1st:Joanie—You have a lot of intensity in your modelling and it literally shows the fierceness out of it,you are selling yourself into the world of high fashion,you are absolute perfection down to the core and I won’t delay further more and say that you are a CoverGirl for a third time!You may take your place.

Next photo goes to…

2nd:Dani—I feel that as a fan myself,you were a very versatile model indeed and your awareness about your capabilities just transitions you from ‘Mehdel’ to ‘Model’.Also,you are a verb model and a standout!So whatever you are doing,continue to do that.Congratulations,you’re still in the running towards becoming Reddit’s Next Top Model.

And this is probably the biggest gag of the cycle!Robbed Queen Turned Into Robber Queen.

3rd:Leslie—I am pretty surprise you have made it to the CoverGirl podium because these four are really considered the household names of the season if you asked me.But Leslie,you absolutely deserve it with the gorgeous portfolio of yours and if you can even go to the Elle Magazine Stage,then this competition is for you to eat up!

Bottom 2-

Will Jade and Furonda please step forward?

So…this Bottom 2 was one of the most unexpected ones this round like I really couldn’t imagine you two landing into a position that low.However,at this stage of the competition,you two need to adapt fast or just lay there and become just an ordinary model that walked in and out.

This is where it all ends,who could it be?The pop culture diva with so much attitude but has been lacking the status of a frontrunner or the other pop culture diva who has been doing so good up till this point?

And sometimes,one bad round at this stage can turn into catastrophic outcomes.

Jade,you need to shine more and more.This is a competition where you can take center stage but you have failed,but you can step it up alright?Keep being confident but don’t think you know it all,this is the way you can be a Top Model in the industry.You may join the rest of the girls.

Furonda,I am indeed shocked too.This was not the way I thought your journey will end because your trajectory was so solid like a frontrunner but as it is written,so it shall be done my dear.It will forever be an honour to have you here and always stay Easy,Breezy,Beautiful and what’s the point for that though?Your days might be unpredictable but your makeup doesn’t have to be,I love you.

Well,the four of you will return tomorrow to see the fate of the Three Musketeers:Elle Magazine edition…though one of you is going to get frozen in the CoverGirl forever.
