Skinny Versus Curvy Battle Time! America’s Next Top Model Winners: Jaslene Gonzales or Whitney Thompson?
If you are not familiar with these two faces, then here’s the news: the left one is the skinniest girl that ever won America’s Next Top Model and the right one is the curviest one to take home the same title. Just how different are they? For starters, Jaslene is a US size 0 (even though she usually looks looks like a 00) and the recent winner, Whitney, is a US size 10 and sometimes an 8.
In addition, Jaslene’s 110 lbs and 5′8” height reflect a BMI of 16.7, where a healthy BMI starts with 18.5 and ends with 24.9. Whitney’s stats? Being around 165 lbs and 5′10”, Whitney’s BMI is 23.7. However, Whitney is the one who’s called plus size model or the full figured one, while Jaslene represents the stereotypical model figure.
Skinny Versus Curvy Battle Time! America’s Next Top Model Winners: Jaslene Gonzales or Whitney Thompson?
Pick your favorite!


































plus size my a…. if she is a plus size at 8, what am I at size 14???? that is beyond absurd!!!
Sorry, but that Whitney girl doesn’t have it – for a modelling career, I mean. Sure, she might be attractive in bed or on the street. As for the skinny one, not attractive on the runway, bed, street… wherever. She looks like a dude.
I think both of these girls are beautiful in different ways. I think it’s about time ANTM has awarded a “Full Figured” model the title. Althought she’s not the least bit “Full Figured”, Whitney is beautiful and Jaslene is beautiful, I just wish people would stop saying Whitney is fat and the show was rigged, can’t people just accept the fact that someone besides a size 0 or someone that has the body of a little boy could win. Good Luck Whitney!
Just goes to show you how distorted the American public has become. We used to idolize women who looked like Whitney, now we idolize unheathly skinniest women. As for the girl on the right, she looks like she belongs in a coffin. I cannot for the life of me figure out how this looks good, and then to be proud of it! American fashion industry needs an enema!
i think this is the best comment i’ve ever read on this site! you are damn right!!
WOW!! U R RIGHT!!
This comment makes a great point. It says that the people who believe that the fashion world should change are the same people who do not know right from left.
Hehehe
Whitney looks pretty but they had obviously planned that she would win before the season even started, just as a publicity stunt.
no, i know whitney. they didnt plan it.
[...] to post this because err…. where did those come from? Because, you know, Jaslene is known for looking like this. And now she is looking like the [...]
I definitely prefer Whitney and her body type. It’s much more attractive than Jaslene’s.
damn, that Whitney is incredibly beautiful. she looks like a juicy, plump woman, I bet she is very sensual…
Whitney was my vote for this last season from day one. I think she is beautiful and it is ridiculous that people can say that a size 8-10 is plus size. That is what most women wear!! The modeling industry needs to change…it is making young girls minds warped. Jaslene is not someone I find remotely pretty and I would much rather look like Whitney!
Actually, Whitney has said (on the show & in Seventeen magazine) that she is a size 12, not 8-10.
I don’t find either extremely attractive, and although Whitney does have a way prettier face, I don’t think she’s cut out to be a model, at least not high-fashion. She’s got more of a girl-next-door vibe.
its crazy, but whitney gotta lose weight and jaslene gotta gain some. i dont think its healthy to be any of them. but who is hotter??? hmm, definately jaslene. she has sex appeal, drive and that mystery, while whitney holds her weight as her only achievement and talent.
totally agree!
Get your eyes tested Matt. Whitney is the normal one, the one at a healthy weight and the one who could actually do things within her biological remit without health issues e.g. give birth.
Am i missing something Jaslene has done and Whitney hasn’t or does she just hold her anorexia as her only achievement and talent? Women are all about their weight, right?
it looks like whitney gave birth to 3 kids already.
i believe your name is Matthew, and you’ve never EVER seen a naked woman, especially NOT one who had three kids.
Damn! Mat u killing it lol. Honestly, I think both of those girls are beautiful and fit to be models. What type of modelling, that’s where it differs. High fashion has always been known for skeletal, stick thin models- and the main reasons for that choice is that designers are trying to cut back on material and fabric costs so they employ thinner smaller models. However, the skeletal figure has become a fashion itself. And honestly, it didnt begin in America, it began in Europe. Presumably in Paris, France and Milan, Italy. You do get different type of modelling, and if you are referring to “high fashion” and catwalk modelling, Jaslene does look like the part. However if you are talking about face, lingerie, bikini, catalogue or any other types of modelling; then it’s more like to be Whitney. Although some Jaslene can do it too if wanted. In the case of Jaslene, you do get people like her who are just naturally and genetically slim, even to the underweight state but that’s how their bodies are. Once they discover they can earn mega billion by just being them and showing their bodies, they do it. But you get other females who will come near death to try and look like something their not, just because it’s “High fashion”.
In my conclusion they’re both beautiful, depending on your opnion. Beauty is perceived on the eyes of the beholder.
Whitneys Not Fat Atol I Think Shes Really Pretty And She Has A Nice Figure Size Zeros Arnt nice to look at i feel sorry for size zeros they were pressured into being that thin whitneys got a perfect figure and im glad she won americas next top model Lm 14
I am over the moon that Whitney won, I think she will inspire little girls all over the world to be who they are and not to want to starve themselves. Whitney is beautiful, she has wonderful features, a fantastic glowing healthy skin and dam I’d love to look like her and I’m smaller than her!!! I think men will find her to ‘die for’. Of all the winners of top model I think she is the one that more people will be able to identify with. Most women look that size and most men would prefer a woman with some curves. I think if you are naturally stick thin then that’s fine but to portray fashion as needing to have think models to save a bit of fabric in dresses which already cost £££ or $$$ is silly, we women of the world want a good mix of models on the runway to portray all our sizes so we can go out and buy this stuff. Long live curvy girls, bring back the days when Marilyn Monroe and Diana Dors were pin up girls, GO WHITNEY yay do it for us normal lasses. We love you in the UK.
haha please i support JaSLENE because she want anyone vote her and she move to new york and she go to picture fashion cloth in magainze and she in magainze say that oplease vote me i vote her and whintey is so stupid she good model but does whintey in any show that new and does she in magainaze in 2008 no jaslene still going to want be to model in world duh i suupport Naima mora and DAnielle and jaslene!!!!!!!!!
uh the competition was RIGGED when whitney won…. whitney used to be way smaller than she is now, and was told to gain weight and she’ll make it all the way to the end and become the first “PLUS SIZE MODEL”..now im not one to sympasize(sp?) with fat people or “curvy ” people, which seems to be the new word for it…but the competition was a conspiracy people.. and whitney is not even pretty at all…Jaslene is a way better model
haha i love the arguments going on between everyone…i am going to have to say i appreciate both for multiple reasons, Jaslene is beautiful in the spicy, saucy, exotic way. Whitney however appeals to the women who, can never be a size 0-5…sadly society has been shoving thin down every woman’s throat in not only the USA but the whole entire world…even I at US size 4-5 struggle with my weight, for in the public eye i am not “model thin” and that was a term deemed to me from a modeling agent…i was told i have to work on my thighs, arms and lower back…i have worked out literally every day for five months and i am still “not quite there yet” now, i work out, i eat healthily, and i take care of my looks, and because i am not size 0-2 i am not good enough…so as far as i am concerned as a struggling model myself i feel that Whitney is a role model for the public eye. And as for all of you that said the show was rigged, even if it was, why is it terrible that ANTM wants to let girls grow up healthy and happy with WHO THEY ARE?? Whitney has the body and the look and yet easy to relate to, and Jaslene has sex appeal and a secret aura about her that screams exotic and also a body that if born with those genes rock it girl! but be happy with what you got naturally, not meaning go and pig out and make yourself obese, what your body looks fabulously with daily exercise and healthy food =]
I disagree..if Whitney lost enough weight she could swing it! Jaslene took some feirce pictures on ANTM!!
I’m sure I’ve seen pictures of this Jaslene in an article on hunger in Somalia…
AHAHAHAHAHAHA. That just about made my life.
i think that both of these ladies are beautiful. but jus because you are skinny dont mean you suffer from anorexia. Im 17 nd wear a size 5 nd only weigh 115 but, if you were to ask anybody that knows me, they would say l eat like a 200 and women. People sometimes that are thin have high metabolisms, that dont mean nothin!
Jaslene has a better face, but Whitney’s got a better body. I’ll take both, please, preferably at the same time
if anyone follows my comments on this site, they would quickly realize that i def. prefer tall, lean, muscular bodies, HOWEVER.. Jaslene just DOESNT do it for me.. I like the plus sized model better.. jaslene looks like a boy with WEIRD gums. NOT A FAN.. whitney radiates sexual prowess/confidence. She is happy and confident in her own skin.. WHICH SHOWS. even if it isnt up to par with Americas “must be starving to be hot” look… GO WHITNEY!!! such a breath of fresh air.. jaslene needs to DRIVE-THRU . In my opinion, so do many other whaffish girls that are weirdly idolized in this country.
also.. To Melinda.. I am a size 4.. could be 0-2 if I worked at it.. AND STILL PREFER WHITNEY. not because its attainable.. because she looks better.
i def am size four and could not be size 2 even if i wanted to work at it, i have a very hourglass body shape b/c of my genetics being that i am italian and puerto rican, and in all honesty i wouldn’t want to be a 0-2 b/c i don’t diss girls that are i just wouldn’t look healthy or in my own personal opinion i wouldn’t look appealing at all
I am a size 6… sometimes 4 sometimes 8 and there is absolutely no way that Whitney is a size 8-10. Anyways, Jaslene is unhealthily thin and should gain at least another 10 lbs… and she really isn’t that attractive.. probably isn’t really at all without makeup.. But to everyone that is saying Whitney is at an unhealthy weight, that is just ridiculous. Another 10 lbs and yes, maybe she was getting a little too heavy, but at this point, she definitely is not.
Um Jaslene wins duhhhh, models are suposte to be skinny, Whitney is the only plus size model i know. Every single fashionmodel hass to be skinny.
Tyra made a big mistake choosing her
Is Jaslene even heavy enough to get her period?
Honestly, 5′8″ and 110 pounds is ridiculous. That’s about a pound and a half per inch of her. That shouldn’t be what girls everywhere are emulating.
No wonder so many girls are Anorexic or Bulimic, size 10 a plus size, ridiculous, so many girls are dying because of this craziness!!!!!!!
Whitney is by FAR the best! theres plenty of plus size models but she isnt plus size… shes more inbetween! she has sucha pretty face! the other girl looks like a man, not attractive at all, and ive never heard of her either.. She looks like a UK size 12 or maybe a 14 which is under average here!
