America's Next Top Model, Cycle 11 was the eleventh cycle of the reality series America's Next Top Model created by supermodel and television personality Tyra Banks. This was the fifth season to be aired on The CW network. The promotional catchphrase of this cycle is "Feel The Love".[1] Approximately the first half of the competition took place in Los Angeles, moving the show back from New York City where it was held last season. The international destination for the final episodes of the cycle was Amsterdam, the Netherlands.

The show featured fourteen contestants, similar to cycles 3, 4 and 10. The winner of this cycle, similar to the past four cycles, won management and representation by Elite Model Management, a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics, and the cover and six-page fashion spread in Seventeen.

This cycle included a first for the series - having a transgender contestant named Isis King participate and qualify for the final fourteen. The inclusion has been noted as an "unprecedented opportunity" by Neil Giuliano, president of GLAAD, a national LGBT media advocacy group.[2]

The winner was 19-year-old Analeigh Tipton, from Sacramento, California.

Episode summaries

The Notorious Fierce Fourteen

First aired September 3, 2008

The 33 semifinalists were driven to San Fernando Valley, California, where they met Alpha J and Beta J (Jay Manuel and Miss J.) at the fictitious “Top Model Institute of Technology”. Inside, they went through a series of reviews and catwalk analysis. Later, Tyra-bot (Tyra Banks) met the contestants and individual interviews began. In between, Isis revealed that she was transgender, surprising some of the other contestants. Twenty of those vying continued and they took part in the first photo shoot – posing in metallic blue catsuits. After final deliberations, fourteen contestants were chosen.

Top Model Inauguration

First aired September 3, 2008

The fourteen finalists were driven to their homebase loft in Los Angeles, California. The contestants asked Isis questions regarding her gender transition, drawing both empathy and disdain. The next day, they visited Magic Castle, a private club for magicians, where judges Nigel Barker, Paulina Porizkova and the Jays conducted one-to-one interviews with the contestants. The photo shoot theme was voting was sexy, with each model portraying a political issue:

Contestant Political Issue
Analeigh Healthcare
Brittany Military
Clark Bureaucracy
Elina Foreign Policy
Hannah Nuclear Weapons
Isis Privacy
Joslyn Unemployment
Lauren Brie Education
Marjorie Immigration
McKey Environment
Nikeysha Cloning
Samantha Economy
ShaRaun Homeland Security
Sheena Energy

During panel, Marjorie's picture received tremendous praise. Isis, McKey, Joslyn and Elina also received unanimous praise for their photos. Analeigh, Hannah, Clark and Lauren Brie were criticized about their weak photos and not finding the right light source. During the elimination process, a new twist is revealed - whoever was called first would have her picture displayed as digital art in the house for the whole week, and the first honor went to Marjorie. The judges were unimpressed with ShaRaun’s photo, interview and over-the-top personality, and were put off by Nikeysha's excuses, landing them in the bottom two, but it was ShaRaun's lack of potential that sent her home.

  • Bottom two: Nikeysha Clarke & ShaRaun Brown
  • Eliminated: ShaRaun Brown
  • Featured photographer: Mike Rosenthal
  • Special guests: Ed Alonzo, Christian Marc, Sutan
  • Top Model in Action: Toccara Jones (Cycle 3)

The Ladder of Model Success

First aired September 10, 2008

The contestants met posing coach Benny Ninja and contortionist Bree Robertson for a lesson on extreme posing inside fabric tubes. The following day, the posing challenge featured Tarina Tarantino jewelry and handbags. Many of the girls utilized awkward poses, and Sheena's inappropriately suggestive pose was criticized. Elina won the challenge, and received a handbag full of the featured jewelry for being the best.

At the house, Isis was shown injecting hormones to aid in her gender transition which made her nauseous. Elina kissed Clark during a game of truth or dare. Tensions rose when Hannah pushed Isis in the jacuzzi, and later said seemingly racist remarks, and was confronted.

The photo shoot challenged the models to hang from a rope ladder, with the images later digitally composited to photos of a hot air balloon. At judging, after first denying that she had surgery, Sheena admits she did have breast augmentation. Elina, Joslyn, Marjorie and Lauren Brie were praised for their photos, with Lauren Brie's being deemed as one of the best in the show's history. McKey, Samantha and Sheena received positive feedback overall. Isis' plain appearance at the judging panel and uninspiring close-up photo landed her in the bottom two with Nikeysha, who was admonished for an unsatisfactory photo and her overly-verbal personality. Nikeysha is eliminated in her second successive bottom appearance.

  • Bottom two: Isis King & Nikeysha Clarke
  • Eliminated: Nikeysha Clarke
  • Featured photographer: Mike Ruiz
  • Special guests: Benny Ninja, Tarina Tarantino, Bree Robertson, Christian Marc, Sutan
  • Top Model in Action: Shannon Stewart (Cycle 1)

You’re Beautiful, Now Change

First aired September 17, 2008

Tyra joined the models over pizza, after which she announced that makeovers would commence the following day. Unlike most previous cycles, the girls were not aware of their new looks until after they were completed. Many were positive about their new look, but Elina cried, expressing that her look did not fit the image she had of herself. Afterwards, the girls were taken to Wal-Mart for a CoverGirl makeup challenge in which they had to record a 30-second commercial without a script. Hannah's commercial was deemed the best, earning her a featured spot on the CoverGirl website and a $1000 Wal-Mart gift card.

The girls took part in a Sports Illustrated-style photo shoot featuring Susan Holmes swimwear. As some added pressure to the situation, Holmes herself was present for the shoot, and Jay Manuel held back all critique and direction.

At judging, Elina was praised for her edgy, racially ambiguous look. Lauren Brie's photo reminded Miss. J of cycle 7 winner Caridee English, and Clark was compared to Lauren Brie by the judges, with them stating she was the complete opposite of Lauren Brie; Clark was beautiful in person, but not in her photos, while Lauren Brie was stunning in photos, but didn't look like a model in person. Most girls received praise, but Isis, Analeigh, Hannah and Brittany struggled. Isis was once again criticized for her "sleepy eyes" in her photo, though her pose received positive critique. Analeigh and Brittany landed in the bottom two; Analeigh for not utilizing her posing potential, and Brittany for continuing to come across as too commercial and not exhibiting intensity in her photos. In the end, Brittany was eliminated.

  • Bottom two: Analeigh Tipton & Brittany Rubalcaba
  • Eliminated: Brittany Rubalcaba
  • Featured photographer: Russell James
  • Special guests: Susan Holmes, Neil Weisberg, Amanda George, Sutan, Christian Marc, Kiyah Wright, Cristen Chin Barker
  • Top Model in Action: Lisa Jackson (Cycle 9)

Fierce Eyes

First aired September 24, 2008

The girls got a runway lesson at a bowling alley from J. Alexander. The next day, they participated in a runway show for fashion designer Jeremy Scott. There were two twists. Firstly, the girls would be wearing see-through blindfolds, and secondly, one girl would be instantly eliminated following the challenge. Notable standouts on the runway included Joslyn, Analeigh, McKey and Sheena, though most girls also excelled. Despite being instructed not to do so, Samantha pulled up her dress while posing on the runway. However, Hannah was deemed the worst walker and was thus eliminated. Hannah was the second ANTM contestant to be eliminated outside of judging panel, after Magdalena Rivas of Cycle 3. Joslyn's performance was deemed the best, winning her a photo shoot for Seventeen which she shared with Isis and Sheena.

This week's photo shoot took place in their own pool. Nigel Barker photographed the girls as they posed with their faces partially underwater, with an emphasis on their eyes. While many received positive feedback, Elina, Isis and Joslyn struggled with the shoot.

At judging, despite having a strong photo, Samantha was strongly reprimanded by Jeremy Scott, who felt that her performance at the runway show was offensive. She landed in the bottom two along with Isis, who was criticized for being too concerned with her swimsuit at the shoot and for having sleepy eyes in the photo. Isis was ultimately eliminated.

  • Eliminated outside of judging panel: Hannah White
  • Bottom two: Isis King & Samantha Potter
  • Eliminated: Isis King
  • Featured photographer: Nigel Barker
  • Special guests: Jeremy Scott, Ann Shoket, Kira Plastinina, Sutan
  • Top Model in Action: Chantal Jones (Cycle 9)

Natural Beauty

First aired October 1, 2008

The girls met Paulina Porizkova at an empty warehouse for a challenge teach, where they were taught how to make an oversized outfit fit them well and carry off the pose. After the teach, each girl was assigned an outfit to improvise and fit themselves. Samantha was admonished over physically altering the dress’ look, while McKey's creativity won her the challenge and the reward of 50 extra frames at their next photo shoot.

Back at the house, Marjorie's insecurities irritated some of the other girls. This week’s photo shoot had the girls portray different disasters unique to Los Angeles, as follows:

Contestant Disaster
Analeigh Santa Ana Winds
Clark Blackout
Elina Earthquake
Joslyn Rockslide
Lauren Brie Snowstorm
Marjorie Traffic Jam
McKey Heat Wave
Samantha Tidal Wave
Sheena Sandstorm

Most girls received praise for their photos, though Lauren Brie was cautioned not to rely on just being pretty. However, it was Clark and Joslyn's mediocre photos that landed them in the bottom two. The judges saw Joslyn as starting out at the top of the pack, but slowly falling, while Clark’s inconsistency had the judges worried. In the end, Joslyn's personality saved her and Clark is eliminated.

  • Bottom two: Clark Gilmer & Joslyn Pennywell
  • Eliminated: Clark Gilmer
  • Featured photographer: Brian Edwards
  • Special guest: Christian Marc
  • Top Model in Action: Eugena Washington (Cycle 7)

The Fiercee Awards

First aired October 8, 2008

The girls were driven to a photo studio where they met Tyra for a teach on how to create and improve on their "signature poses". While Lauren Brie disappointed by producing what Tyra deemed as pretty but "empty" photos, Marjorie’s high-fashion take on the "Hunchback of Notre Dame" impressed Tyra – and won her the challenge. She chose Analeigh to share in her prize of diamond necklaces from Rafinity totaling $12,000.

For this week's photo shoot, the girls were taken to the Orpheum Theatre in downtown Los Angeles to portray different award show snafus inspired from Tyra’s Fiercee Awards on The Tyra Banks Show. Marjorie and Analeigh wowed Jay, while Elina had trouble letting go of her control and freeing her emotions.

Contestant Award Show Snafu
Analeigh Interviewer with an attitude
Elina Overly emotional acceptance speech
Joslyn Another starlet in the same gown
Lauren Brie Trips up stairs
Marjorie Needed to use restroom, but couldn't get out of gown
McKey Believes she is going to win, but doesn't
Samantha Can't read cue cards because of lights
Sheena Starlet stepped on her gown

Lauren Brie and Sheena were placed in the bottom two, both for their flawed photos. The judges saw Lauren Brie's personality having been washed out, while Sheena was inconsistent in her photos and was told again to avoid being "hoochie". Sheena's personality, however, shone through, and Lauren Brie was eliminated.

  • Bottom two: Lauren Brie Harding & Sheena Sakai
  • Eliminated: Lauren Brie Harding
  • Featured photographer: Mike Rosenthal
  • Special guests: Jim De Yonker, Kiyah Wright, Ann Mangini, Sutan, Christian Marc
  • Top Model in Action: Danielle Evans (Cycle 6)

Top Model 11 Confidential

First aired October 15, 2008

This was the recap episode featuring some never-before-seen footage, including Samantha being left without a bed at the start of the competition, an argument between Elina and Sheena regarding animal rights and respect for others' beliefs, McKey cooking meals for the girls because she felt left out, Sheena losing her hair during her makeover, the girls admiring Nikeysha's talent for rapping, a night out at Red Pearl Kitchen in Hollywood, a bee attack and Hannah talking about her "Alaska Pixie Dust".

Now You See Me, Now You Don't

First aired October 22, 2008

Following Lauren Brie's elimination, The girls got a lesson from the Aswirl Twins on how to properly showcase a garment. This is immediately followed by a challenge in which the girls wore green bodysuits to mask their bodies via greenscreen, while modeling clothing for Petro Zillia, judged by Ann Shoket. While many were criticized, Elina was chosen as the winner, and got to shoot a holiday fashion spread for Seventeen along with Analeigh and Marjorie. When they returned, Elina and Sheena argued on whether it was hypocritical for Elina, an atheist, to appear in a holiday spread.

The following day, the girls met Cycle 10 winner Whitney Thompson for a CoverGirl commercial shoot. They were alloted five takes and got to read their lines from a teleprompter. While some excelled and others struggled, Joslyn was ill and had a particularly difficult time.

At judging, Tyra challenged the girls to walk in wooden clogs, leading her to announce that they would be going abroad to Amsterdam, though one contestant would be eliminated first. Analeigh was praised highly, with Tyra stating that her commercial was the best ever in ANTM history. Sheena was also praised for her personality in the commercial. However, Elina was once again criticized for being too constrained. Conversely, Joslyn was told that she overacted, even though she was lauded for pulling through and doing the commercial despite being very ill. Tyra noted the two women had very different strengths, and Joslyn was told that she was a survivor, letting her believe she made it, but as Tyra revealed Elina's picture, she told Joslyn she'll survive this.

  • Bottom two: Elina Ivanova & Joslyn Pennywell
  • Eliminated: Joslyn Pennywell
  • Featured commercial director: Frank Ockenfels
  • Special guests: Whitney Thompson, James St. James, Nony Tochterman, Ann Shoket, Christian Marc, Sutan, Ron Harris, Richard Harris, Elyssa Traub

Planes, Trains and Slow Automobiles

First aired October 29, 2008

When the girls arrived in the Netherlands they were split into pairs to find their house through a series of tasks. Elina and Samantha were the quickest and earned 50 extra frames to share. The girls then went to the Red Light district for yet another challenge, this time posing as store-front models selling various designers' dresses. While Marjorie was singled out as the best girl, McKey and Samantha won the prize to appear in several runway shows in Holland Fashion Week because of their teamwork.

For the photo shoot, the girls posed in 17th century couture gowns on a boat. McKey, Analeigh and Marjorie received positive comments, while Samantha used her extra frames to deliver better shots. Elina's focus made her ignore Jay at one point.

At panel Samantha was criticized for her outfit but praised for her photo, while Marjorie's timid personality didn't sit well with Daphne. Analeigh and McKey got unanimous praise. Sheena and Elina landed in the bottom two; Sheena was criticized for her inconsistency and trouble controlling both her body and face together, while Elina was chastised for her stiffness and uninspiring in-person look. However, deemed to have the better picture, Elina was saved for the second time in a row and Sheena was eliminated.

  • Bottom two: Elina Ivanova & Sheena Sakai
  • Eliminated: Sheena Sakai
  • Featured photographer: Andy Tan
  • Special guests: Daphne Deckers, Jan Taminiau, Carlo Wijnands, Edwin Oudshoorn, Bas Kosters, Mariette Hoiting, Sutan, Christian Marc

The Final Five

First aired November 5, 2008

The final five went on go-sees. Marjorie became lost and frustrated causing her to not book either of her go-sees while Elina only booked two out of the four she visited, because the designers openly stated that her tattoos were a serious problem. McKey was booked by all four of her go-sees, but was disqualified from the challenge for being five minutes late. As a result, Analeigh won $18,000 worth of designer clothes for booking all 3 of her go-sees.

This time Tyra was the photographer and took two pictures of the girls - one with a simple, clean face, and one with edgy and glamorous styling, with a warehouse background. Marjorie struggled on the first shoot, but excelled at the second. Elina was once again too controlled, while Samantha and McKey shone in both shoots.

At panel, Samantha's photos were deemed the best and she was called first. Elina and Marjorie both landed in the bottom two because they stood in their own way (Marjorie's nerves and Elina's control), but with her third consecutive bottom two appearance, Elina was eliminated and Marjorie was given another chance.

  • Bottom two: Elina Ivanova & Marjorie Conrad
  • Eliminated: Elina Ivanova
  • Featured photographer: Tyra Banks
  • Special guests: Frederick Koster, Pearl Macnack, Marlies Dekkers, Monique Collignon, Hans Ubbink, Mart Visser, Christian Marc, Sutan

Good Times and Windmills

First aired November 12, 2008

The remaining four girls get a lesson from Paulina Porizkova on modeling with unusual props. They were then challenged to audition for a short commercial in which they kissed a male model Mark Vanderloo. Marjorie was chosen as the winner, and received a $10,000 shopping spree at G-star which she shared evenly with Analeigh. That evening, the girls let loose when they invited their go-sees boatmen from the previous episode to the house.

The photo shoot took place in the Dutch countryside, with windmills as the backdrop accompanied by dramatic hair and makeup. Analeigh and McKey excelled once again while Samantha and Marjorie struggled. At judging, Samantha was again criticized for her unprofessional appearance and for having bad film overall despite producing a good photo. Marjorie was admonished for having lost her appeal in her attempt to act more aloof, as well as her inconsistent film, which sent her home.

  • Bottom two: Marjorie Conrad & Samantha Potter
  • Eliminated: Marjorie Conrad
  • Featured photographer: Barrie Hullegie
  • Special guests: Richard Gorodecky, Mark Vanderloo, JM Van Tilburg, Sutan, Ann Shoket

America’s Next Top Model Is...

First aired November 19, 2008

The final three received Tyra Mail informing them that their CoverGirl commercials would be the next day. When they arrived, the girls found out that the commercials would be held on a boat traveling through Amsterdam, and that they would each have to deliver a "scene-stealing kiss" at the end of the commercial. Samantha's commercial lacked energy while Analeigh went blank and had to be fed the lines. McKey produced a stunning commercial, improving immensely from her first commercial performance. Afterwards, all the girls shot their CoverGirl print ads with Jim De Yonker.

At panel, Analeigh received unanimous praise for both her commercial and photo, with her picture being deemed as the only "model" shot. McKey and Samantha land in the bottom two, McKey for not working with her face as well as her body, and for forgetting her lines, and Samantha for looking very commercial in person yet lacking commercial ability on camera. With that, Samantha is sent home. The final two then shot their Seventeen Magazine cover tries, where both impressed Ann Shoket.

Analeigh and McKey joined Cycle 10 winner Whitney Thompson and Holland's Next Top Model, Cycle 4 winner Ananda Marchildon at a whimsical, fairytale-themed fashion show. Both girls showed consistent walks, although both were critiqued that they were not as strong as they could have been. During deliberation, the judges recognized that both girls had stunning portfolios, and had greatly improved as models from their first shoot. McKey's edgy, high-fashion look in photos, commercial ability and gorgeous strut were acknowledged as well as Analeigh's commercial appeal, amazing improvement since the start of the compettion and high fashion pictures. The girls were called back in, and Tyra announced that Analeigh was the winner of Cycle 11.
