I think it's good that a lot of the girls this cycle have some notable preshow experience. It lends credibility to the show that TyTy's desperately trying to regain, and gives Vogue Italia a bit more confidence in awarding the prize to one of these girls. For my money, even though few if any ANTM alums have done it, one picture in Elle does not a supermodel make.
shes had two *spreads* in elle actually. im not calling her a supermodel...but shes done some noteworthy stuff in the past year actually. with antm exposure she could take it even further- or it could end her career.
But if you really look at her pictures seriously she kinda look very old for her age. She could be 30 in this picture. Compare to Jane, she looks 10 years older.
