Whitney Thompson Wins 'America's Next Top Model'
Last night, Tyra Banks crowned 20-year-old Whitney Thompson the winner of 'America's Next Top Model' -- the first "full-figured" model to win the competition. The Florida native shrieked with joy as she processed the news of receiving a $100,000 CoverGirl contract, a cover and six-page spread in Seventeen magazine and a modeling contract with Elite Model Management.
"I'm here because I do feel good about myself and I want other women in America to feel better about themselves," Whitney said. In case you missed it, you can watch the exciting moment below.

I'm so thrilled. Me and my friends were all rooting for Whitney to win. We all nearly hyperventilated when she did. A better person couldnt have won.
