Meet the Cast of "America's Next Top Model: All Stars"

It's that time again, you sexy bitches! Another season of America's Next Top Model is upon us, and while we've gotta admit that the show's got some pretty wack challenges that in no way prove if the contestants have what it takes to be top models, everyone's seriously hot. This season, dubbed America's Next Top Model: All-Stars, pits fan-favorite contenders from past cycles against each other before celebrity judges like Nicki Minaj and the Kardashian sisters.

To get you ready for the premiere, which features Minaj guest hosting and airs tonight at 9 p.m. on The CW, we've compiled a list of this cycle's contestants. Get familiar so you can fully enjoy what is sure to be another beautiful mess full of catwalks and cat fights.

Shannon Ratliff

Shannon Ratliff (Cycle 1)

One of the very first contestants on the show, Shannon Ratliff—née Stewart, as she's married since appearing on ANTM—was popular with the judges for her "commercial" look, and though she received criticism for refusing to partake in a nude photo shoot due to devout religious beliefs (See the halo?) she still ended up placing second to Cycle 1 winner Adrianne Curry in the end. That's not to say she didn't continue modeling though; since the show ended, Ratliff has signed with a few agencies and even walked the runways at New York Fashion Week.

Camille McDonald

Camille McDonald (Cycle 2)

During her time on ANTM, Camille proved that she's as fierce as fierce can be, so it's exciting that she's back, and reason for you to watch the show without muting it. She had a walk that she labeled her "signature," and she refused to change it despite what anyone told her in the series. Hey, girlfriend knew what she knew, can't hate on that. She made it to the final five, but was eliminated shortly thereafter.

After a stint of modeling in Milan, Camille returned to the States and even took an internship in marketing with Diane von Furstenberg to get her learnin' on. Now, with her own line of lingerie, aptly titled LingerWear, it's pretty safe to say the bitch is back. And soon, on our TVs too!

Brittany Brower

Brittany Brower (Cycle 4)

Before we go any further, we should probably tell you that Brittany here was criticized during her first go on ANTM for appearing too sexual in her photos. We sense our new fan favorite....

Anyway, other than that little tidbit of trivia goodness, Brittany performed pretty well on and off the show. After being eliminated from the series, she signed with the well-known NEXT Models in Los Angeles, and even appeared in a few television shows like So You Think You Can Dance and Battle of the Network Reality Stars.

Lisa D'Amato

Lisa D'Amato (Cycle 5)

Lisa received tons of praise from the judges during her time on ANTM for her photos in the competition, but we don't really remember much else about her other than she has a hell of a lot of wigs, and there was this one time she talked to a plant she called "Cousin It".

Still, the whole crazy chick vibe she gives off didn't bar her from reaching a pretty solid amount of success in the entertainment industry after leaving the show; she dabbled in singing, in addition to her modeling and reality television appearances. She was also a cast member on the third season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which is probably a good thing, judging by the aforementioned plant whispering.

Bre Scullark

Bre Scullark (Cycle 5)

Bre is most remembered for what can best be described as "The Great Granola Bar Fiasco Of 2005", but it was her chops as a model that secured her a spot in the top three during her time on ANTM. After leaving the show, she signed with Ford Models and appeared in a few commercials.

Oh, and nobody better steal her cereal bars this time. Especially not Lisa. Actually, now that both gals are back this season, we're excited to see what's gonna go down there. Hell hath no fury like a hungry model whose food has been stolen.

Bianca Golden

Bianca Golden (Cycle 9)

More known for her catty remarks than her time on the catwalk, if anything, this season is sure to be entertaining with Bianca around. C'mon, you know the petty fighting is the best part of most reality shows, don't lie! Anyway, apart from all that, Bianca's done pretty well for herself post-ANTM; she's signed with more agencies than we can count, including Ford Models, and she even competed on Project Runway as a model for the aspiring designers.

Dominique Reighard

Dominique Reighard (Cycle 10)

Though Dominique didn't end up winning ANTM, she did win the Tyra Banks-helmed spinoff, Modelville, so technically she's one to watch out for this season. She went into modeling not only because of an interest in fashion but also to use it as a platform to help those in need, particularly women like herself, who are in or have been in abusive relationships.

Isis King

Isis King (Cycle 11)

One of the most well-known contestants in ANTM history, Isis was the first transgendered contestant on the show when she first appeared during Cycle 11. She's since completeted her gender reassignment surgery, but during her time on the show she had not, which led to tension between her and the other contestants when she revealed that fact to them. Though she's not actually signed to any modeling agencies, she still works as a freelance model and has appeared on a few talk shows, including The Tyra Banks Show, to talk about her story.

Sheena Sakai

Sheena Sakai (Cycle 11)

When Sheena first joined ANTM, judges criticized her for being a little too risqué, and for lying about a boob job. She went on to perform well—obviously, considering she's an "All-Star" now—and was eliminated in sixth place. After leaving ANTM, Sheena signed with Model Management Group, appeared on Gossip Girl, and did stunts for Tropic ThunderShe also raps....

Allison Harvard

Allison Harvard (Cycle 12)

You may not know Allison here is for her modeling, but chances are you know her for her Internet meme status as "Creepy Chan". The name makes sense once you take into account her obsession with blood and all those really creepy photos of her.

Still, she performed quite well on ANTM, surviving to Cycle 12's final round before ultimately losing to Teyona Anderson. Since competing on ANTM, Allison moved to New York and claims she prefers to be "behind the camera" more than she does in front of it, so it's sort of weird that she's back on a show where she's competing to be a top model. But regardless, we're happy she's back because ANTM needs a good Halloween episode.

Laura Kirkpatrick

Laura Kirkpatrick (Cycle 13)

Laura's a pretty sweet gal, chock full of Southern charm. This is fine in real life, but considering that this is reality TV, too much niceness worries us; polite people are either a snoozefest, or they're like a ticking time bomb just waiting to go off. Laura seems to be the former, though, which is both a good and bad thing.

Anyway, she was the runner-up in her cycle, losing to Nicole Fox, but she still went on to participate in runway shows and even a charity event to help benefit victims of the 2010 earthquake in Haiti. She overcame dyslexia when she was 13, and now she also runs a foundation for dyslexic people called The Beautiful Minds. Basically, she's Little Miss Perfect.

Angelea Preston

Angelea Preston (Cycle 12, 14)

Unlike the other gals on the show, this won't be Angelea's second time appearing in the series, it'll be her third. She first joined the competition in Cycle 12, though it wasn't until returning for Cycle 14 that she was really noticed and made it to the top. She was eliminated at that point in fourth place, but she doesn't seem too broken up about it. In fact, she calls it a blessing in disguise, because it allowed her to rejoin the series for this season. During her time on the show, she was known for her catty fights with the other models, so we expect nothing less but this girl's own brand of drama in the season to come.

Kayla Ferrel

Kayla Ferrel (Cycle 15)

Kayla first appeared in ANTM only two cycles ago, so both her and her career in the industry are still pretty young (she's 20). She performed well during her time on the show, placing fourth overall in her cycle, which isn't bad for a gal who used to work in Hooters to make ends meet.

Kayle came to terms with her sexuality and came out as a lesbian during her time on the show, making hers an inspirational story that could easily be turned into a Lifetime movie or something. Because, you know, that's how you know it's inspiring.

Alexandria Everett

Alexandria Everett (Cycle 16)

Alexandria here just appeared in the show last season, so she's the newest to modeling of the bunch. She did well, clearly, placing fourth in her cycle, but she wasn't particularly liked because she tended to complain. A lot. But, since a judge's least favorite for causing conflict is pretty much automatically our most favorite for that very reason, we're quite happy that she's back after such a short time off the show. We just hope she doesn't try this again.
