Who Won America's Next Top Model?
America's Next Top Model courted some major controversy on its season finale tonight, as finalist Angela Preston was disqualified... with little explanation provided.
Sources say she was given the boot for leaking spoilers about the cycle, while some go as far as to validate this claim... and add that she was actually named the winner, until The CW was forced to reshoot the finale. The network, meanwhile, simply said in a statement:
"After production wrapped on the current cycle of America's Next Top Model, we learned information that made Angelea ineligible and she was subsequently disqualified from the competition. As a result, new scenes were filmed to address this for the audience during the finale."
That shocking development resulted in a rather anti-climactic conclusion, but Lisa D'Amato took home the crown after dominating on the runway.
For winning the first-ever All-Stars cycle, Lisa earned a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl, along with a spread in Vogue Italia and a guest correspondence role on Extra.
"It's crazy! It's absolutely crazy! I feel incredible," said the 30-year old after hearing her name called as the champion. "To be honest, my confidence actually comes from a very vulnerable place. It's not that I'm over-confident. It's just that I have to life myself up every day. I have a lot to prove. I feel like the universe finally came around for me and I'm not going to let anybody down. I won America's Next Top Model All Star. It's pretty damn cool."

Call us cynical, but if these people really wanted help, they wouldn't seek it on a reality TV show.
Cisco Adler & Lisa D'Amato: Dating, Filming Weird Videos
Lisa D'Amato is a former finalist on America's Next Top Model.
Cisco Adler is an alleged rocker / long-haired dude who dates famous girls and sometimes shows off giant balls in pics found in Paris Hilton's locker.
It was a celebrity couple destined to happen.
Not only are Cisco Adler and Lisa D'Amato together (guess Lydia Hearst is out of the picture), but they're filming videos like this one below!
Check out "Bikini," a music video featuring Lisa D'Amato in, yes, a bikini, while Cisco Adler directs all the hot action and mans the camera.
Okay, iso t's no Jessica Sierra sex tape. Heck, it's not even as hot as that Whitesnake video from the '80s. You know the one we mean. But whatever.
