Since Saleisha won America's Next Top Model, many claims emerged about her participation being unethical. Assuming it's true: should she be disqualified?


According to MediaTakeOut.com, there are many angry viewers who believe that Saliesha, the winner of this seasons America's Next Top Model, cheated. And what's worse is they believe that Tyra helped her do it.

Their first argument is that Saleisha attended Tyra's T-Zone camp when she was 14 years old, and the two ladies have reportedly stayed in touch ever since.

Second, according to the Official Rules and Regulations of ANTM, contestants must not have ANY prior modeling or TV experience. As you can see here, Saleisha did work in the past couple of years as a model: she has been a national spokesmodel for Especially Wigs for more than a year now, and also walked at least once on the raunway on Tyra's show.

I think that the last couple of seasons have been wrong ,in season 9 chantel should have won.I think Dominique in season 10 should still be in the running she was the strongest model besides anya.

the thing is, it's not about her having an unfair advantage professionally...it's about her having an unfair advantage and then having the nerve to go on the show, and tyra letting her, and then she STILL sucked. so...i really don't know what to say. i cannot wrap my head around this bullshit. the show is silly, but at least in past cycles it's been worth watching. when saleisha won, my sister and my mom and i just kind of sat there disgusted, and then we changed the channel before we got to see her cry and gloat about it and scream about being a covergirl. god damn.

It appears that the losers of ANTM get more press, attention, and contracts in the real modeling world anyways. Either way it is great exposure for anyone on the show.

Sure, I think she had an un-fair advantage until you stop and think about all the other girls that have been on there that has had prior modeling experience. If the rule is no prior modeling experience allowed then that is what it should be. Maybe Tyra should run a tigher ship. I still love the show and watch it faithfully, so I'm happy for whoever wins.........especially if it is a woman of color!

I think that she really deserved to win because if she didnt I dont think she would have went though all of that just to win. And whoever thinks she didnt is hating just cause she had modeling experience doesnt mean anything.

Saleisha is not the only girl in the history of ANTM to have prior modeling experience. I think her win was well deserved.
