Amanda Babin Biography:
Amanda Babin was born in Metairie, Louisiana, but relocated to Anaheim, California with her twin sister,
Michelle . Before she joined America's Next Top Model, Cycle 7 with Michelle, she was working as a sales associate at a local bookstore. She stands at 6 feet, and has always been eager to enter the fashion industry as a model.
Amanda initially tried out for America's Next Top Model, Cycle 6, but was only accepted into the competition for the show's seventh season. As a Finalist, Amanda was often criticized by the judges for looking awkward on the runway and in her photographs, but Amanda did her best to overcome her weaknesses, and she was able to make it a bit further than her twin sister, Michelle. She gained a spot on the Top 4 with
Eugena Washington ,
Melrose Bickerstaff and
Caridee English . Amanda was in the bottom two for two straight weeks before she was finally eliminated for posing stiffly and too awkwardly. She was the tenth contestant to be sent home.
Since appearing on the show, Amanda has continued to pursue a career in modeling in Los Angeles.
