Quick Facts Judges, No. of contestants ...

The judging panel, unchanged since Cycle 14, once again consisted of Tyra Banks, Nigel Barker and André Leon Talley.[3] The first judging was conducted in front of a live audience.[4] The international destination for this cycle was the Greek island of Crete,[5] the show's first visit to Southeast Europe.

The promotional song for this cycle was "You Make Me Feel..." by Cobra Starship featuring Sabi. This was the final cycle filmed and broadcast in standard definition and the final cycle for Andre Leon Talley as a judge.

The original winner[6] of the competition was 25 -year- old Angelea Preston, who was originally a semifinalist on Cycle 12 and placed third on Cycle 14, but was later disqualified, stripped of her title after it was made known that she had once worked as an escort.[7] A lawsuit was filed by Preston in 2014 for breach of contract and labor law violations but dropped in 2018.[8] The finale was re-filmed with the crowning of 30-year-old Lisa D'Amato from Los Angeles, California, who originally placed sixth on Cycle 5 making her the oldest winner at the age of 30. Allison Harvard, who originally placed second on Cycle 12 losing to Teyona Anderson, placed as the runner-up for the second time.[9]

Casting

Perspective

This season has been subtitled "All-Stars," featuring fourteen returning non-winning contestants representing twelve of the series' sixteen cycles for a second chance to win the title. Cycles 3, 6, 7 and 8 are all not represented. Cycles 1, 2, 4, 9, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15 and 16 were all represented by one contestant each and Cycles 5 and 11 were each represented by two contestants.[10]

Before Cycle 17 became an all-star season, early production for the cycle was a regular season. All of the American Cycle 18 contestants were all semifinalist. Production turned Cycle 17 into an all-stars season very early into production and promised the semifinalist that were new that they have a shot on being on the next cycle. AzMarie Livingston and a Cycle 16 semifinalist named Molly[11] (not to be confused with Molly O'Connell) who also auditioned and made it pass the semifinals confirmed this.

Cycle 14 contestant Angelea Preston competed for the third time on America's Next Top Model in Cycle 17 as she was initially introduced as a semi-finalist on Cycle 12 best known for her fight with Sandra Nyanchoka who finished ninth after Celia Ammerman survived the bottom two in week five. Fourth placers Bianca Golden of Cycle 9 and Dominique Reighard of Cycle 10 participated in a competition hosted by Tyra Banks for the third time as they had both appeared on Modelville which aired within The Tyra Banks Show after their original appearances on America's Next Top Model.

The following former America's Next Top Model contestants were asked to be on Cycle 17, but they all declined or did not make the final cut.[12][13][14]

Angelea's disqualification

Summarize
Perspective

Following the finale, reports began to speculate regarding the disqualification of Angelea Preston. Due to the bizarre circumstances surrounding the event, including the re-shooting of the final panel/winner reveal, many people began to speculate that Preston had been originally named the winner prior to her disqualification. Popular theories that circulated on social media during the months following the finale included speculation that Angelea had broken contract by revealing her win on social media, that she was pregnant, or dealing with substance abuse issues.

In January 2013, Angelea confirmed the reports by announcing that she had indeed won the competition prior to being stripped of the title, though she did not specify why.[29] Tyra Banks did not comment on the situation.

In September 2014, Angelea revealed that the reason she was stripped of the title was because she had been working as an escort prior to participating in America's Next Top Model. She said the producers had been made aware of this before the filming of cycle 17, but decided to disqualify her only after she had already won the title. She filed a lawsuit against the producers, the network, and the studios due to breach of contract for $3,000,000 in damages.[30] Other allegations in the lawsuit included that the show violated fair labor practices by forcing her and other contestants to work 16-hour days, sometimes without a meal break, keeping the contestants in isolation for five to six hours at a time, without food or water. Additionally, she alleged that she wasn't paid a legal hourly wage for her work, nor overtime wages. She also claimed that show staff failed to provide her with proper medical attention when she suffered a panic attack during filming.[31][32]

Notes

  1. Jenner changed her name due to gender transition in 2015.
  2. In episode 3, the team of Allison, Bianca, Bre, Camille, Kayla and Shannon won the challenge and received immunity from elimination as the prize. Allison was chosen as the best of the group and won an extra prize as a result. At panel, the six immune girls were judged separately from the non-immune group.
  3. In episode 5, the call-out order was decided entirely by guest judge La Toya Jackson. Angelea and Lisa were called forward as the bottom two before Jackson announced neither of them would be eliminated.
  4. In episode 7, Lisa won the challenge and received immunity from elimination as the prize; however, this did not influence her place in the call-out order. Bianca, Kayla and Shannon were called forward as the bottom three. Tyra handed the last photo to Shannon, eliminating the other two.
  5. In episode 9, Shannon did not participate in the photo shoot.
  6. In episode 13, Angelea originally won the competition; however, she was then disqualified from the competition and the finale was reshot. Lisa and Allison were then revealed as the winner and runner-up, respectively.
