'America's Next Top Model' Goes Transgender
Last season saw a plus-sized woman win "America's Next Top Model." Could this be the season for a transgender winner?

One of the 14 women competing on the 11th cycle of "America's Next Top Model" is transgender, reveals Us Weekly.

"My cards were dealt differently," says Isis, 22, who describes herself as "a woman born physically male."

Isis, who shares a name with the ancient Egyptian goddess, doesn't necessarily see herself as a role model for transgender people though.

"I like to help people, but I'm here to follow my dreams," she says.

6. Yeah, that's what I was saying
No more than the others. They all need a couple of rounds of Taco Bell with McDonalds for desert for gawds sake! I've never been into the Twiggy/Waif look. Heroin chic.
