America's Next Top Models fourteenth cycle debuted on March 10, 2010, marking the eighth season on The CW. The first three seasons of America's Next Top Model, as well as seasons 10 and 12, were filmed in New York City; however, the series did not return to New York until cycle 23. The catchphrase for Cycle 14 is "Work It Out." The promo songs are "Watch Me Move" by Fefe Dobson and "Go Getta" by Stella Mwangi.
The prizes for this cycle continued to be a contract with Wilhelmina Models, as well as a fashion spread and cover in Seventeen magazine, not to mention a 100,000 contract with CoverGirl Cosmetics.
J. Alexander was removed from his post as a judge and replaced by Vogue editor André Leon Talley. Though Alexander was removed as judge, he remained as runway coach. The international destinations during this cycle were Auckland and Queenstown, New Zealand. This is the show's second consecutive visit to Polynesia after Maui, Hawaii, in cycle 13.
The winner of the competition was 24-year old Krista White from Pine Bluff, Arkansas, with Raina Hein placing as the runner up.
Season summary In this cycle, a new rule was introduced where the first contestant called by the judging panel each week had their photo or commercial displayed as digital art in the models' house and automatically received the reward challenge prize for the following week, regardless of their performance in the actual challenge itself. If the same contestant also won the challenge, they could share the reward with others or receive additional prizes.
The "Top Models in Action" segment was replaced by "Top Model Lounge," featuring commentary from past contestants Bianca Golden and Laura Kirkpatrick from America's Next Top Model, Cycles 9 an 13 respectively. Both Golden and Kirkpatrick returned as All Star contestants in Cycle 17, alongside Angelea Preston from this cycle (originally a Cycle 12 semifinalist) and eleven other former participants who had not won their original Top Model Cycles.
This cycle reverted to the standard modeling industry height requirement of 5'7" or taller, differing from the previous cycle’s focus on shorter contestants.
