After the Catwalk....

I know several people believe that after the girls leave America's Next Top Model, that's it for them. However, many have continued their modeling careers and can be seen at several fashion shows, on commercials, in magazines, on ads, on television, etc. You don't have to win to be successful on this show. It helps, though, if you're memorable.
However, there are a few girls who I have seen after their season has ended on television in places I would never imagine them to be on. For instance, a couple of months ago I was watching Wheel of Fortune and guess who was one of the contestants... Jenascia from Cycle 2 (the season where Yoanna won). I had to do a double take but it was her name that caught my attention. Admit it, that's not a common name. If I remember correctly, she did very well on the show and got a chance to go to the bonus round.
Another ANTM alumni who popped up in a surprising location in my opinion was Memorable Cassandra from Cycle 5. Many remember her as Texas pageant girl who had a breakdown after they chopped off her long brunette locks and dyed it blond. Then she joked (hopefully it was a joke) about sleeping with her cut-off hair that was bound in a ponytail. When Tyra wanted more to be cut off, Cassandra walked off the show. I remember one of her farewell lines was that she believed beauty pageants were more of a career than being a model. But I guess becoming an actress is better than being a beauty pageant girl. I saw her on One Tree Hill playing a actress who has no problem flirting and sleeping with strangers at a drop of a hat. I looked her resume up and found out that she has acted in a few things: Fast and Furious, Hannah Montana, Las Vegas, CSI...

i've always tried to keep an eye out for the girls after their cycle. sometimes, when i flip on the fashion channel, i try to see if one of them's on the catwalk, i have never seen any of them on it though.

none? I think I've seen girls like Dani, Furonda and Naima during fashion week in New York.

Jenascia was the hooters waitress that ultimately quit modelling after Season 2... She was eliminated 'coz she let being too short hinder her to have a career...
