Analeigh Christian Tipton is an American figure skater, actress and fashion model, most noted for placing third on Cycle 11 of America’s Next Top Model.
Analeigh Tipton was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, relocated with her family to Sacramento, California when she was eight years old. Analeigh attended New York Film Academy’s Film School program at Universal Studios, Los Angeles and is currently studying film at Marymount College in Palos Verdes, California.
Analeigh was a supporter of the Invisible Children. She also participated in the Global Night Commute in the Cesar Chavez Park.
Before her appearance on America’s Next Top Model, Analeigh was a competitive figure skater. She began skating at the age of two and a half and trained most of her childhood. She competed in four U.S. Synchronized Skating Championships total. Later, she and her pair partner, Phillip Cooke, became two-time regional champions, and competed at the U.S. Junior Figure Skating Championships twice on the Juvenile level. She retired from competitive skating at sixteen, but continued to skate in charity ice shows for AIDS foundations.
Analeigh once encountered sex traffickers posing as modeling agents. She told the judges of America’s Next Top Model that these traffickers told her she should model but kept delaying the start of the “modeling agency.” She was sold to a Saudi Arabian prince, but realized what was going on and got out of danger before the deal was finalized.
Prior to America’s Next Top Model, Analeigh had posed for photographers Shaun Pfeipher and Robert Dahey, and modeled for a mock Grazia Magazine ad campaign, produced by Alejandra Garibay. Analeigh was signed to I Model and Talent in Los Angeles and walked in Los Angeles Fashion Week Fall 2008 for designer, Kelly Nishimoto for her Fall 2008 collection, Imasu.
Analeigh placed third on Cycle 11 of America’s Next Top Model. She was recruited through Myspace and was asked to audition in Los Angeles. After landing in the bottom two in the episode “You’re Beautiful, Now Change” for not using her ice-skating moves to her advantage, she rebounded and appeared in the top three for seven consecutive weeks. Analeigh was called first twice, one for the first CoverGirl commercial, which Tyra Banks deemed “the best CoverGirl commercial in the history of America’s Next Top Model.” She also won the go-sees challenge by booking all three of her go-sees. She left and arrived on time. In a challenge won by Elina Ivanova, Elina shared her prize with Marjorie Conrad and Analeigh; they appeared alongside each other in the December 2008/January 2009 issue of Seventeen magazine. She was subsequently eliminated in the finale after forgetting her lines in the second CoverGirl commercial, which left Samantha Potter and McKey Sullivan to walk in the finale runway show.
Analeigh and Samantha Potter appeared as guest stars on the television series The Big Bang Theory, in the episode “The Panty Piñata Polarization.” She’s worked with many local photographers, and has also done catalog work for Forever 21.
She also walked for Skingraft and David Alexander for the S/S 2010 season For Los Angeles Fashion.
Analeigh posed for Campus Girls USA Calendar and is featured in the ‘Girls of Pac 10 Conference’ calendar. The calendar raises funds for Breast Cancer Research and features college girls from across the nation from all different conferences.
Analeigh is currently signed with Ford Models in Los Angeles and Abrams Artists Agency, in both the commercial and theatrical divisions.

She’s not commercial; more high fashion.
January 7, 2011 at 12:25 am
FINALLY, someone who sees it. The reason why her CoverGirl shot was not weak is because she is NOT commercial. She is NOT CoverGirl; her face is suited for more high end!!! Besides, I appreciate how she is not an American beauty because that is exactly what makes her gorgeous and original!
January 7, 2011 at 12:26 am
Oops … I meant her CoverGirl shot WAS WEAK because she is NOT COMMERCIAL, SORRY!
December 11, 2011 at 2:19 pm
I don’t know why it’s weak at all. I love it – and would be far more likely to buy makeup because of that photo, or Joanie’s (Cycle 6?) than most of the winning photos ever selected. Love Analeigh. Go forth and conquer, girl.
April 21, 2011 at 6:52 am
Analeigh had a cameo in The Green Hornet playing a date of Seth Rogen’s.
September 24, 2010 at 6:35 pm
She’s beautiful; I like her hair and her eyes. She should’ve won.
March 7, 2011 at 3:23 pm
She was my fave from the beginning; I totally agree!
March 20, 2011 at 4:34 am
I think that so!!
The ANALEIGH LOVERS ARE HERE!! :p
December 5, 2011 at 6:04 am
YAY!!! Analeigh was my fav too!!! she was so sweet, good friend but still competitive without being bitchy like so many other girls…she was hands down the best contestant in this season…GO ANALEIGH!!! <3
September 25, 2010 at 6:58 am
I really like her; she’s so pretty!!!
October 1, 2010 at 5:20 pm
She is probably the nicest girl that has ever been on the show.
October 7, 2010 at 10:24 pm
So beautiful and a great heart!
October 8, 2010 at 10:21 pm
I love her; she’s beautiful and sweet. It’s a shame that she hasn’t won.
October 17, 2010 at 5:11 am
I LOVE ANALEIGH! I think she should have won, but Mckey wasn’t a bad choice, as well. I wish Analeigh won too though.
November 3, 2010 at 2:04 pm
I <3 ANALEIGH TIPTON ! she was my all time favorite in cycle 11 since hannah was eliminated ! she has a good heart and very sweet . She actually looks like a BRATZ doll (in a good way) . haha . i really just admire her ! she is adorable and lovable ! she should have won or atleast become a runner up because she was more great than Samantha ! but McKey is good too . But i really admire ANALEIGH !!

URGGH !
November 3, 2010 at 2:10 pm
I love her! She should have won! Urggh! I really love her; she looks like a Bratz doll. (In a good way.)
November 4, 2010 at 2:41 am
Wow! She was the best in cycle 11 even though she had a rocky start. She definitly had the personality to be a model especially when she helped Isis take her medication when everyone was picking on Isis. She was beautiful on the inside and outside, I wish should could’ve made it at least to the final two. Though, I’m grateful she made it as far as she did.
December 5, 2011 at 6:07 am
YES! and she was the first to take care of marjorie when she was drunk too!!! That’s why she took beautiful pictures, is a reflexion of her great heart…
November 6, 2010 at 8:50 am
I love the picture of red queen!
November 13, 2010 at 8:43 am
The sweetest person on ANTM!! She was not commercial; they were only trying to find a flaw to get her eliminated. She continued to pull out great pictures.
November 16, 2010 at 4:03 pm
She is so pretty!!! I like her personality. She is really nice.
November 26, 2010 at 9:17 pm
Анали супер! она очень красивая. Я очень хотела, чтобы она победила. А с какой вы страны?
Translation: “Analeigh is super! She is very beautiful. I very much wanted her to win! From what country are you from?”
December 5, 2010 at 3:12 am
I wish that Tyra had said “I want you to do high-fashion modeling.”
December 8, 2010 at 1:31 am
She’s going to be in a new movie with Steve Carell, Ryan Gosling, Julianne Moore and Emma Stone. Critics have been saying that the script is very good! I really hope the movie does well, Analeigh deserves it. The movie is coming out on April 22, 2010. I’m definitely seeing it.
December 9, 2010 at 3:21 am
I had no idea that Analeigh was a Buddhist.
December 9, 2010 at 5:42 am
She’s hot!
December 22, 2010 at 4:28 am
I want to yell at her and tell her to do high fashion and not juct commercial modelling. I want her to do it all when it comes to modelling.
January 12, 2011 at 11:33 pm
She totally looks like Heidi’s sister Holly Montag from the Hills.
January 19, 2011 at 3:18 am
She’ll make it far.
January 20, 2011 at 7:09 am
She’s my favorite dark horse out of any season. I remember I was unsure of her the first few weeks and then that beauty shot mid water and her shot with her legs was KILLER! I can’t believe she wasn’t called first for that. She also had a strong fashion walk. She excelled every week and I am shocked that she wasn’t in the top 2 against Mckey, Mckey would have probably still won, but Analeigh would have given Mckey a run for her money where Sam was still blah with her walk. Its great she is doing quite well now, I still think she had one of the best commercials ever (The first commercial they did) but I agree that her look can be very high fashion.
January 27, 2011 at 11:07 pm
She’s in The Green Hornet, isn’t she?
February 6, 2011 at 10:51 pm
I don’t like Analeigh.
May 15, 2011 at 11:40 am
What exactly did you find to dislike and how powerful was the magnifying glass you viewed her through in order to find
Something to dislike?
February 16, 2011 at 3:39 pm
She reminds me of Meg Ryan when she smiles.
March 5, 2011 at 11:49 pm
I can be mistaking but I think I saw Analeigh in couple episodes in the Green Hornet movie as a couple-night-stand girl for the main character.
I hope Analeigh’s career will boost. she seems to be a good person.
March 11, 2011 at 12:31 pm
She is going to be in a movie with Steve Carrell called Stupid Crazy Love or something.
March 19, 2011 at 9:47 pm
Love Love Love Love Love
March 26, 2011 at 11:09 am
Analeigh is my favorite ANTM contestant of all time! She really should have won!!!
April 9, 2011 at 2:57 am
Analeigh, damn girl! You’d better work because you’re just too gorgeous. That season had so many gorgeous girls in it.
April 9, 2011 at 4:35 am
Analeigh can be seen in the trailer of her upcoming movie, it looks very promising and i’m so excited for this. Also, I love Steve Carell.
April 9, 2011 at 11:48 pm
She’s going to be a lead in a new movie: Damsels in Distress.
May 11, 2011 at 7:06 am
The best combination of sweetness, perseverance, maturity and class since Danielle.
She never got in the catty, gossipy gutter with the others; Analeigh always conducts herself like a lady.
May 14, 2011 at 12:44 am
Analeigh and Hannah from cycle 16 – separated at birth!
August 30, 2011 at 11:13 pm
Yeah!
June 9, 2011 at 6:27 am
I am so glad she is doing well. Such a sweetheart. I remember seeing her skate when she was younger. She has legs for miles. I think a little thin now again, though, I’ve been saying that for a lot of the girls. But I wish her luck, she deserves it! So pretty!
June 14, 2011 at 12:10 am
She’s doing really gr8! =D
June 18, 2011 at 3:45 am
Uhh she was my favorite since the beginning! I wanted her to win so badly. I’m glad to see she’s doing so well now because she is gorgeous and I love her!
June 24, 2011 at 9:13 pm
By far my favorite antm contestant ever. So nice, sweet, never b*tched, she deserves every good thing that comes her way.
July 3, 2011 at 11:06 pm
Beautiful girl. She got a raw deal on ANTM. I’m glad to see her doing so well. She deserves it.
July 10, 2011 at 11:28 pm
Even though Analeigh placed third, she has accomplished more than the top two girls. I absolutely adore her.
August 3, 2011 at 3:24 am
I loved her during cycle 11 I’m so glad she decided to be and actress.
August 30, 2011 at 11:12 pm
She should have won,I really admire her,she is gorgeous!
September 11, 2011 at 5:41 am
She is adorable. I was upset she didn’t win. I guess McKey photographed really well, but in person I just can’t get past her hare lip.
September 12, 2011 at 11:45 am
Analeigh will always be one of my favorite Top Model girls!! She isn’t knockout, classic pretty but I love her all the more for that – her face is just so much more interesting!! And she is a great actress! She was really good in Crazy, Stupid, Love! She was so sweet on the show too. I’m happy to see her as a big star!
September 21, 2011 at 11:05 pm
She’s so pretty! She should’da won. She’s stunning!
October 19, 2011 at 4:43 am
Congratulations Analeigh! Show those ultra pretentious idiot “judges” of ANTM you never needed them! Its nice to see good things happen to good people. I bet she had a great laugh when she was asked to participate (if they dared ask) in the “All-Star” season. Coming in 3rd was probably the best thing that could happen to her. She showered off the stench of Tyra and Paulina and became more successful than they (obviously) thought possible. I hope Analeigh enjoys a very long and satisfying career.
October 19, 2011 at 7:55 pm
i loved her charm, sweetness and she seemed very approachable!
November 21, 2011 at 3:24 am
She is now on the HBO Series, HUNG. She plays as the girlfriend of a gigolo competing against Ray (played by Thomas Jane), the main character of the show and gigolo.
November 24, 2011 at 2:01 am
