Just when I was ready write off Season 10 of Top Model, the lovely Whitney was crowned belle of the ball last night. The 20-year-old Florida college student is the first "full-figured" gal to win the competition, which frankly still baffles me considering Tyra's crusade to redefine standards of beauty for young women. But no matter: It happened! Whitney won. She will grace the cover of Seventeen and assume her duties as a Cover Girl. I look forward to watching her career evolve and seeing whether this small step could be a giant step for healthy-sized women who want to dress as well as they feel about themselves. I'd love to see Whitney model swimsuits, actually, as her body is rocking and she would look hot in a bright two-piece.

Good for her:) It's wonderful to see someone healthy looking, rather than an a sack of skin and pointy bones

I like Whitney but out of all the "full size" models they even had on the show she is the smallest, I also thought Anya was just an all around better model and that being in the Bottom 2 4 times and winning the show ...well sadly this looks more like a set up to get ratings!
