Is Aneleigh the most successful ANTM contestant ever?


I'm not talking about in terms of modeling. I know she didn't do a lot of modeling after the show. But in terms of overall success? I'd agree she is the most successful. I mean, she has done movies with Ryan Gosling, Miles Teller, Nicholas Hoult, Steve Carrell, Julianne Moore, Dave Franco...she even had her own sitcom on primetime TV (I know it was short lived, but still). What do you guys think?

reply

No.

Yaya has actually been more successful in that field. She's been in countless tv shows, music videos, movies.

I am watching her cycle now. I would say yes as far as acting maybe. With Yaya a close competitor. But model wise no.

Yaya has actually done more.

Perhaps true. Hence my saying a close competitor. I thought it was nice to mention her being she is highly successful.

Yaya is more successful and is on a major TV series (The Chicago Med and Fire shows). She has also been leads in some films. If you want to count films with famous actors, she's been in films with Ryan Gosling, Russell Crowe, Mark Ruffalo (they had major love scenes), Forest Whitaker, Justin Timberlake (he's super famous, though not an actor in my eyes), and Ben Foster. According to Tyra, because I didn't see the Butler, she had a big scene with Oprah. I don't even know, as successful as Analeigh has been, if she can compare.

Okay, but with all those names you're still only listing three movies, and none of them made her a household name. Granted, I don't think any ANTM alum is a household name...

I'd give my vote to Yaya or Elyse -- she was/is huge in Asia.


What I've got in my head you can't buy, steal, or borrow. I believe in live and let live.
