Summary: America’s Next Top Model contestant sues her producers after they denied her the crown for once being an escort.

Angelea Preston is discovering that it is hard to escape one’s past. Nevertheless, after her appearance on “America’s Next Top Model,” she claims she rightly won the crown and became the next top model. After all, Tyra Banks applauded her “Edgy face,” and they recorded her as being awarded the crown. Only they denied it to her. They had discovered she once was an escort.

As TMZ reported, she is suing the studio. Just before they filmed the season in which she won, Preston confided in her producers that she had once been an escort for about a year. The news spread to the cast and crew, but it wasn’t until after the final shoot that the casting director sat her down and grilled her about her past.

Preston was informed that her past constituted a breach of contract, and hence she could not be the winner.

Preston counters that she was an escort, and not a prostitute, and further, those days were far behind her, and hence she had not breached her contract.

Preston is therefore suing the producers and studios for breach of contract to regain $3 million in damages she claims she lost when Vogue denied her the spread she would have got, and she lost $100,000 from a CoverGirl deal.
