Michelle Deighton was a contestant on Cycle 4 of ANTM.
As a finalist on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 4, Michelle greatly impressed the judges with her versatility and talent. While on the show, Michelle came down with a skin condition called impetigo, and her condition led the other girls to panic because they thought Michelle had a contagious, flesh-eating bacteria. Because the disease may be passed on to little children, Michelle had to do the fourth photo shoot with a doll instead of a real and very energetic child, making the other girls extremely envious. Michelle fell to the bottom two after the “7 Deadly Sins” photo shoot, and the following week was eliminated when her dull pictures from South Africa failed to excite the judges.
After her stint on America’s Next Top Model, Cycle 4, Michelle signed a modeling contract with both the Janice Dickinson’s Modeling Agency and M Models International. She also worked with Elate Wear and strutted her stuff on the runway for fashion shows like San Francisco Fashion Week Presents “Emerging Stars”, Antique Denim Spring/Summer 2006, Megan Fashion Show Spring/Summer 2006, and Elate “Celebrity” Fashion Show 2006. She also appeared on WWE Friday Night Smackdown, where she fought with Melina and was rescued by the Mexicools. The WWE has also offered her a development deal, and Michelle is busy finalizing the terms of the contract.
In September of 2007, Michelle and beau, Jon Dalton, popularly known as Jonny Fairplay, of Survivor: Pearl Island fame, announced that they were expecting their first child. The two had been dating for about two years and Michelle was over four months along. They had initially declared that the baby was due January 26, 2008. In October, Michelle wrote in her MySpace blog that they had learned that they were expecting a baby girl. She also mentioned that she had signed on with Expecting Models – a pregnant modeling agency. On January 16, 2008, a little over a week ahead of schedule, Jon and Michelle welcomed Piper, their 6 lb 7 oz baby girl.
She has modeled for Elate wear, Louche Clothing, Celebrity Baby Blog, Mommygoround.com, and has appeared in Life & Style Magazine.
Currently, she is signed with Wilhelmina in New York.

I don’t know what the hell they were thinking dying her hair blonde. It made her hair look sooo damaged!! Thank god she went back to being a brunette.

I think her face thing came from the dye, and the bleah. She is def more gorgeous with dark hair.

Wasn’t she a lesbian?
October 11, 2010 at 5:09 pm
And she said on the show that she was a lesbian?
No, she is a bisexual.

Hate that they made her hair blonde. It totally ruined her look. She was so beautiful before! I loved her and was sad when she was send home.
Why is it saying Jon and Michelle welcomed Piper, their 6 lb 7 oz baby BOY. Piper is a girl name and I know they had a girl.

She looks great with any hair color.

The show did her a serious injustice dying her hair so blonde. In most/all of her ANTM pics she just looks off but in all the others here she looks beautiful. I liked her when she was on the show, but her pics never stood out; the show never captured half the beauty she shows in these other pics.

Она замечательная, классная и очень красивая. Она должна была быть в финале с Naima

She’s okay, but not a big fan.

For the fans of Michelle, you can see her on WWE’s reality show, Tough Enough. Yep, she’s trying to be a pro wrestler.

She is beautiful and now she is back to wrestling. I saw her on that new reality show that Stone Cold Steve Austin is doing on Syfy. I knew her face looked familiar. Hopefully she makes it big.

She is MUCH prettier as a brunette than a blonde. I wondered wth they were thinking when they made her go blonde.
September 22, 2011 at 11:49 pm
I love her, she is stunningly beautiful!
October 2, 2011 at 3:50 pm
I didn’t like her on the show, her distant personality was a bit annoyin. I also didnt like her look, her face shapes are a bit rough shaped .. sorry to say, i think she should be eliminated sooner.

I love Michelle, but she went WAY further on the competition than she deserved.
December 17, 2011 at 9:06 pm
She looks much more beautiful with black hair.
