Dani Evans and America's Next Top Model

Winning America's Next Top Model Cycle 6

Dani Evans was one of the top thirteen people chosen for America's Next Top Model Cycle 6. This was a TV show where young people competed to become a famous model. Judges thought Dani was one of the best from the start.

She was known for her amazing face in photos. Dani won "Covergirl of the Week" twice. She also got the first "call-out" once, meaning she had the best photo that week.

Later in the show, judges noticed her strong southern accent. They worried this might be a problem for commercials. But they also believed she could learn to speak differently with a coach.

In the final show, the judges had a tough choice. Some liked Joanie Dodds's many different looks. Others, like judge Nigel Barker, liked Dani's special "signature look."

In the end, Dani's strong presence and great walk on the runway helped her win. Her charm and amazing photos made her the sixth winner of America's Next Top Model.
