America's Next Top Model (Cycle 10)
Five other full-figured models tried before her but it was the Twenty-one year old student from Atlantic Beach, Florida who became the first full-figured model to win the coveted title of America's Next Top Model Cycle 10.
Whitney received favorable reviews on her looks and photo shoots on and off. She was often accused of being too beauty pageanty and was even once compared to Anna Nicole Smith (who's idea was it to turn her into a blonde anyway - oh yeah, Tyra's). Despite the negativity she managed to maintain her composure and apply what she learned about herself and the other models to the following week.
As a winner of ANTM, Whitney received a contract with Elite Model Management, a $100,000 contract with Cover Girl Cosmetics and a six page spread and cover in Seventeen magazine (July 2008 issue).
I look forward to seeing and hearing more of this beauty.

Hips: 43"
According to US standard clothing size Whitney falls into a few categories. Based on her chest size alone she can either be a Misses size 14 or Catalog size 8. Because her hips are bigger (making her pear shaped) she falls into Misses size 18 or Catalog size 16. According to a quote in her Seventeen spread she is size 14.

I have to admit it - I was rooting for her to win this cycle. Great SquidWho page, I loved it! Posted May 21, 2008 |

She looks great as a brunette or blonde...guess everyone just expects celebrities and models to be blonde. It's fun to watch film from the 50's and you see that blondes are RARE. Posted May 18, 2008 |

Thanks for leaving your opinion Blake. I personally don't know anyone who is the same that they were in school. And it is reality television (light on the real). :) Posted May 17, 2008 |
Okay, congrats...but this is getting on my nerves! I went to school with Whitney and if you knew the stuck up girl she was and into herself she was also, shes putting on for tv! And im tired of hearing her talk about her butt and hips! she used to tell ppl that she was fat and needed to lose alot of weight, but she was pretty skinny at school.I guess she gave up.
