America's Next Top Model Reveals Cycle 13's Moderately Short Contestants
This afternoon America's Next Top Model announced the fourteen contestants that survived audition stampedes and extensive pore-testing to qualify for CW's 13th cycle. Producers hope that this season's height restrictions will infuse extra fierceness into Tyra's pony parade, but will that be enough to lure audiences into watching another pack of forgettable beauties pose for the Porizkova-less judging panel? Let's take a look at the roster.
Finding 14 beautiful, height challenged models to compete for a dead end $100K CoverGirl contract is a spin on the tired beautiful/tall combination, but couldn't CW have found anyone shorter than 5'3?
Ashley, 22, artist; 5'6"; Chicago
Bianca, 21, student; 5'7"; Columbia, S.C.
Brittany, 21, student; 5'5"; Livermore, Calif.
Courtney, 22, cheer instructor; 5'4"; Plantation, Calif.
Erin, 18, student; 5'6"; Kenosha, Wis.
Jennifer, 23, model; 5'5"; Philadelphia
Kara, 19, student; 5'7"; Fort Wayne, Ind.
Laura 19, waitress; 5'6"; Stanford, Ky.
Lisa, 19, student; 5'5"; Queens, N.Y.
Lulu, 19, student; 5'7"; Brooklyn
Nicole, 18, student; 5'7"; Louisville, Colo.
Rachel, 18, customer service; 5'5"; Woodland, Calif.
Rae, 21, homemaker/mother; 5'6"; Rochester, Minn.
Sundai, 18, student; 5'3"; Bakersfield, Calif.
First Fox unveiled More to Love and now CW follows suit with ANTM: Moderately Less to Model. Let's hope that producers tear another page from the More to Love playbook and display each girl's height and weight on the Chyron. At least we could calculate their BMI's during commercials.

As a 5'5" male, this does nothing for my self-esteem.
The girl from Livermore, CA will win this season. If you can manage to get out of Livermore, you will do whatever it takes to never go back.
Maybe, but watch the model from Bakersfield. Livermore is Bakersfield with nicer weather.
I can't wait for an entire season of Tyra telling them how to look taller by squinting like THIS. Feeyus.
Don't worry, with guys, girth is what matters.
WHAT?! no OCCUPATION: EXOTIC DANCER?!
...they must all have been taken by Brett Michals "Rock of Love" show
WAIT! HOLD ON! Jennifer,23 is ALREADY A MODEL
So she's a bottom trying to be a TOP?
Make your aura tall. May I sugggest that you take up martial arts; perhaps Aikido. Please check out youtube videos on Tyrone “Mugsy” Bogues who at 5' 3" is the shortest person to play in the NBA. He played 14 seasons in the NBA for five different teams. Before retiring in 2001, he had racked up 6,858 point, 6,726 assists and 1,369 steals–impressive stats for any NBA player.
Also check out Spud Webb, who at 5’7” enjoyed a 13-year NBA career and amassed over 8,000 points during his time in the league. Spud, however, is known for being the shortest player in basketball to compete and win the NBA Slam Dunk Competition in 1986.
Earl Bokyins 5'5" is a current NBA player
Short honeys need love too.
Thanks for this! I hope you have a awesome week!
