''America's Next Top Model''


America's Next Top Model Cycle 5

D'Amato claims to have been dared to send in an audition tape to ''America's Next Top Model'' because her friends were obsessed with the show. After a year of persuasion, she decided to participate in the program realizing she had nothing to lose. D'Amato was the last (thirteenth) girl (edited as the second last (twelfth) girl called and followed by Ebony Taylor when aired) selected for the top thirteen to compete on the UPN reality television show '' America's Next Top Model Cycle 5''. On the show, D'Amato soon became known as the "most notorious" of the models, not scared to speak her mind to the other contestants. She explained that this support truly comes from her heart because she wants other models to look their best, especially on national television. D'Amato cites having been abused as a child as the reason for her hard-hitting, survivalist attitude. She shocked the other models by urinating in a diaper while on a shoot which

D'Amato has been identified since cycle 5 as one of the most memorable contestants due to her entertaining personality, unconventional beauty, penchant for melodrama, and strong fan base.

cycles. D'Amato's seemingly off the wall antics secured her spot on this season of the show and aided in her journey to the top. Like all the other contestants on Cycle 17, D'Amato was given a branding word: "daring". Using this key term, she presented herself on the show accordingly; wearing bold outfits for panel, expressing her extroverted personality and molding the challenges to fit her image. During her time on the show, she developed her own perfume called "Neon", performed in a music video for her song "I Be Like Whoa", won three challenges, received three first call-outs, survived her first bottom two appearance over Camille McDonald from Cycle 2 and was part of a non-elimination bottom two with former Cycle 12 semifinalist and Cycle 14 contestant Angelea Preston. On December 7, 2011, D'Amato won over fellow finalist Allison Harvard from Cycle 12 who was the runner-up in both of her cycles.
