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.

While disapproving fingers are shaking in Miley Cyrus' direction in the wake of her many photo scandals, the teen superstar is getting support from model-turned-TV-guru Tyra Banks.

"She is a 15-year-old, and I just wish everybody would leave her alone!" Tyra said on 'The View.' Getting her start at a young age, the supermodel knows all about provocative photo shoots. "There were definitely jobs they would ask me to do," she said, but Tyra also added that her mom kept a close eye on her and her career moves.
