Winnie Harlow or chantelle antm might have received an instruction on the art of “smize” by Tyra Banks of America’s Next Top Model, but this isn’t all Winnie claims her participation on the show’s modeling competition has done for her career. In the Tuesday’s episode on Watch What Happens Live, Winnie was in Cycle 21 of ANTM in 2014, discussed with host Andy Cohen about the show’s impact on her career.
“[My successes] started shortly following the show, because it did nothing in my profession. It doesn’t do much for any model’s career in the real world,” the 23-year-old model stated. “I thought”That’s going to be a great career-building opportunity.’ It was, however, just a reality-TV show. This is not the reason I signed up.”
After Andy said, “It’s almost like you did it despite the circumstances,”” Winnie backtracked a little. “I would never say that. It’s a part of my story and I’m extremely thankful for all that I’ve done to get to where I am. But it’s not all that easy,” she said.
But if it was not the American’s Next Top Model that turned Winnie into a model with a thriving career How did Winnie make it big? “A photographer in London came to me – with a big photographer Nick Knight — and Nick Knight said”Hey, I’ve seen your pictures on the internet and I’d like to shoot with you”” Winnie explained. “It was a huge success and I received campaigns from them and it’s not stopped since.”
