Kimberly “Kim” Stolz was a contestant on Cycle 5 of ANTM.
Kim grew up in New York City and attended The Brearley School in Manhattan. In 2005, she earned a bachelor’s degree in government and international politics from Wesleyan University; she wrote her undergraduate thesis about U.S. foreign policy. After graduating from Wesleyan, Kim briefly worked in a law firm.
In fall 2005, Kim was a contestant on Cycle 5 of America’s Next Top Model. Kim, who was open about her sexuality on ANTM, was routinely criticized by some of the show’s judges for having a “masculine” appearance.
Kim is most memorable for kissing fellow contestant Sarah Rhoades in the limo. She also “made out” with Sarah while the two were in bed together while living in the Top Model house. In an interview with the website AfterEllen, Kim stated: “I think that a lot of people were very quick to merge my sexuality and gender, and that made them scrutinize my masculinity a whole lot more than they would otherwise.” Kim was eventually the ninth contestant eliminated, making it to the final five.
Kim currently has an active presence with MTV: she is a video jockey for The Freshman on mtvU and is also an MTV News correspondent. In 2008, she reported extensively on the 2008 Iowa Caucus and interviewed presidential candidates John Edwards and Mike Huckabee.
Kim also pursued a career in fashion modeling; soon after she appeared on America’s Next Top Model, she was signed with Elite Model Management in New York City and is now signed to Ford Models in New York. She also had a small role on an episode of the UPN series, Veronica Mars, as part of a challenge win for America’s Next Top Model. She has recently been featured as one of CoverGirl’s Top Models in Action.
In addition to her publicity as a Top Model in Action, Kim was voted as one of the most memorable contestants by AOL Entertainment Canada. She has also been writing for the Huffington post.
Kim has since stopped modeling and is now a correspondent for MTV. She participates in celebrity modeling projects booked through Ford Models.

She was the hottest. Even though her pictures weren’t that great.
June 24, 2010 at 10:35 pm
She is SO great and hot. I loved her photos and her looks. She really deserves being a model.
August 10, 2010 at 8:21 am
I love her and her photos.
August 17, 2010 at 6:41 am
Hated her personality, but I cannot deny she’s a great model. Wow!
August 25, 2010 at 11:18 pm
She’s hot modeling both as a woman AND a man. Amazing.
September 9, 2010 at 4:40 am
I totally love both her personality and her work. I totally hope she has the best in her future no matter which route she chooses.

Она настоящая модель!!!
Rough Translation: “She’s a contemporary model!”
September 23, 2010 at 5:16 pm
Она очень красивая с длинными волосами. Оболдеть….
Rough Translation: “She’s beautiful with long hair.”
September 25, 2010 at 6:10 pm
с длинными особенно супеp!
Rough Translation: “With long hair especially super!”

Девченки, а Ким сейчас чем занимается? уже не модельным бизнесом да?
December 16, 2010 at 1:41 pm
она телеведущая на MTV
October 12, 2010 at 6:34 am
I love her so much, especially with long hair. I also like the short hair. I think she is the strongest lesbian on ANTM (until Kayla Cycle 15).
December 23, 2010 at 9:25 am
I have to agree.
December 26, 2010 at 9:56 pm
Oh my goodness! Kim is wonderfull!
February 12, 2011 at 11:34 pm
That picture of her with her leg on the phone booth is amazing!!

Way too short, too boyish (for me) and way too interested in the other girls. Well that was actually fine! I don’t think she is “Top model” material though. The top two girls were much better.
But hey, it’s TV!
April 29, 2011 at 10:57 am
She has been one of my favorites in this cycle…i would have been happier if she made it to the final 2. she’s really beautiful and captivating.
May 4, 2011 at 3:10 am
SHE IS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND COOL GIRL IN THE WORLD
May 10, 2011 at 7:53 am
just beautiful!!
June 1, 2011 at 11:19 am
She was gorgeous! I’m straight but I would completely make out with her. LOL

creo que si que ella es la chica mas memorable de antm ciclo 5 porque creo que dentro como fuera del programa a ella le esta yendo bien con el modela je y creo que ella debería de seguir así porque muchas personas en el mundo la admiran y creo que ella asé un lindo trabajo defendiendo los derechos de los guise y eso las personas guise lo valoran mucho y es muy bueno que después de casi de 6 años se sigan acordando de kim stolz tal y como es mucha suerte kim stolz con el resto de tu vida
September 25, 2011 at 2:20 am
Estoy de acuerdo contigo, kim es mi favorita de todo antm porque es unica y diferente a las demás, yo la sigo recordando aunque ya hayan pasado 6 años de el ciclo 5, pero aveces me pongo triste o me siento mal que se anden burlando de que es masculina o que es lesbiana o cosas así, yo queria que ella ganará porque es diferente además ella es muy linda y me gustaria conocerla
August 6, 2011 at 8:11 am
She looks so masculine. x_x; Are you sure she’s a girl?
August 9, 2011 at 10:06 pm
She didn’t seem to understand why she was on the show. It was a modeling contest. Not a change a straight girl into a lesbian, talk about everyone, and then focus on Bre show. She lost her focus. I think she could have gone further.
September 20, 2011 at 1:21 am

December 12, 2011 at 3:54 pm

December 12, 2011 at 3:55 pm
she’s got the muscle by the way
December 14, 2011 at 10:35 am
kim es tan HERMOSA y tan guapo cuando viste masculinamente,me encanta ,no soy lesbiana..pero si tuviese la oportunidad de estar con ella como pareja no la desaprobecharia por nada del mundo,es HERMOSA y muy guapa y sexy cuando viste masculina..me encanta
December 16, 2011 at 6:54 am
she reminds me of jasper from twilight in some of these pictures!
December 17, 2011 at 9:35 pm
Kim should have been in ANTM All Stars and totally not Camille, Abgelea, Bre and Bianca!
December 20, 2011 at 10:29 pm
I absolutely loved Kim right from the start; i think she is gorgeous and i would of loved her to won (even though i am happy nicole won.) She was a strong competitor and wasn’t afraid to say who she was, and that can be hard for a lot of girls out there. I hope her career has been successful and i wish her the best of luck.
p.s would defiantly turn lesbian if i knew her!
