Now that we've come to end of another cycle of America's Next Top Model, I thought it might be interesting to take a look back at all of the show's winners to determine, after all, who has come out on top.
Of course, any best-of list is subjective, so please feel free to disagree with me and let me know which winners you loved and hated. I'm basing my rankings for this list on how each girl performed on the show (photo shoots, runway, attitude, personality, growth), not on what they have done since winning.
Here goes...
1. Danielle Evans (Season 6)
She's gorgeous, her photos were fierce, her runway walk was awesome -- the only this girl couldn't do is talk! What sealed the deal for me in giving Dani the top spot, however, is overcoming a sickness that required a hospital visit to triumph in a jungle-themed photo shoot. Now that is a Top Model!
2. Eva Pigford (Season 3)
Eva's pictures were always fantastic, but the real appeal of watching her on Top Model was seeing her overcome her personal demons to become the true model we (and the judges) knew she was capable of being. Love her.
3. Adrianne Curry (Season 1)
Adrianne's personality was so endearing to me that I put her at #9 on my list of Ten Favorite Reality Show Contestants! Foul mouthed, hysterical, and game for anything, she helped make Top Model into the must-see hit that it is today.
4. Saleisha Stowers (Season 9)
The most recent winner is poised, professional, and takes great photos (though, arguably not as good as her competitor Jenah). Cover Girl must be happy to have her.
5. CariDee English (Season 7)
Goofy and a spitfire, CariDee injected tons of personality into Season 7's competition. Melrose may have had stronger chops as a model, but there was no denying CariDee's charm and appeal.
6. Nicole Linkletter (Season 5)
Probably the least endearing winner the show has ever had, Nicole's porcelain skin and ridiculously beautiful face helped her coast to victory. I think she probably grew the least of any winner, but when you come into the competition looking like she did, who cares?
7. Naima Mora (Season 4)
I wanted to love Naima, but I never found her as edgy as she seemed to find herself. In fact, I found her quite boring! Still, she was the most deserving contestant on what I consider to be Top Model's weakest season.
8. Yoanna House (Season 2)
The only girl without a perfect body to win the show, Yoanna should have been the underdog I rooted for. Instead, I found her whiny and kind of annoying.
9. Jaslene Gonzalez (Season 8)
I mean!!
So, does my list match up with yours? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.

1. Saleisha Stowers
2. Danielle Evans
3. Adrianne Curry
4. Yoanna House
5. CariDee English
6. Jaslene Gonzalez
7. Naima Mora
8. Eva Pigford
9. Nicole Linkletter
The last four can go either way. But the top five are actually girls on my favorite ANTM personalities and beauty list. Although, only one of them is in my top five favorites. That would be Saleisha. She was in that self esteem camp, +18. She knew Tyra before the show, +1. She was on ANTM before, +1. She was on the Tyra Banks show, +1,000,000. That's an instant shot to fourth place on my entire list. Her body and attitude, that wouldn't quit molded a powerful asset to the modeling industry. Let's just hope she pulls it together for her own sake. Although her Tulip shot was the best one on the show; and you can argue with me until the sun rises again. But it's not about you. It's about peace...
Danielle, Adrianne, Yoanna & CariDee are all stunning beauties. Danielle was fierce from the get go with some bad ass features that prompted a real queen. Adrianne is just a fire cracker beauty. Her wild side and facial structure are up there with the elite. Yoanna, when she grew her hair out again, FREAKING SLAM DUNK with her nuts all up on Michael Jordan's forehead... CariDee, her personality is amongst the most genius of today. And her photography, that chick be getting down like pigs eating their own feces. As long as she's in front of the camera, she has no problem...

I put Nicole at the last spot simply because I dont even remember her. I had to look up her pictures...and still didnt have a clue who she was!
I put Naima right below her for the same reason. But when I looked her up I remember her..not really impressed though.
Next is Yoanna..
Geez I found her to be boring and just plain annoying. I really wasnt a big fan of her pictures either..
I really loved Adrianne to death and of the two finalist she was the better choice.. but I just didnt think she was as good as some of the other winners. Also it dissapointed me that she never really continued modeling.
I thought Jaslene was absolutely amazing throughout the entire show. She was funny, energetic, and spunky from day one. I also admire her perserverance to come back from the previous season when she didnt make it into the house and then win.
Eva was one of those girls you either loved or hated. I personally loved her. She had incredible pictures--even when she was scared to death of that spider--and she wasnt afraid to be the diva eva she was! I also think the fact that even today her career is still kickin says alot about her.
I think Caridee had the most incredible pictures in her cycle. And she overcame her skin disease to do that. She was very consistent which impressed me because normally they have a few bad shots but I thought all of hers were terrific. I think Caridee also had one of the best personalities. She always seemed to make others laugh and she always had a smile on her face.
I just couldn't make up my mind so tied for first is Danielle(or Dani as she is now called) and Saleisha.
Dani reminds me of that girl in your hometown that you just know is going places.. but you know she will always remember you too.
She seems like a girl that can take pictures with the most glamorous and then watch football with the guys. I love that about her. She is such a strong presence. Whenever she was on scree she commanded my attention. She definitely deserved the title of Top Model.
Saleisha is such a natural beauty and her sweet yet edgy attitude made me love her. She was the least drama in the house. (I think so anyways)And I dont recall once that I didnt like her pictures. She was an amazing person inside and out and I couldnt be any happier with her winning.
