Monique Calhoun Biography:
Born Monique Babblesworth, Monique Calhoun is an aspiring model from Chicago, Illinois. Before she became a finalist on America's Next Top Model, Cycle 7, Monique was working as a marketing representative.
As a Finalist on America's Next Top Model, Cycle 7, Monique was not very well-liked, as she not only cried and complained about the makeover she received from the show, but also reacted like a terrible sore loser when, upon being disqualified from one of the challenges, she decided to retaliate by not letting the other girls use the telephone in the house. Even when her fellow Top Model Finalists
Melrose Bickerstaff and
Anchal Joseph confronted her about her behavior, Monique continued to use the telephone, and only gave it up two and a half hours later. The following week, Monique was seen wiping her used underwear on Melrose's bed after they had again argued over the use of the telephone. To the delight of some of the other finalists, Monique became the third contestant to be eliminated from the show, after she refused to do a photo shoot because she was feeling under the weather.
Immediately after she was eliminated, Monique did not show any remorse about her behavior or about being removed from the show. She was also caught saying that her experience on the show was a waste of her time. Currently, Monique has plans of going to Japan in the hopes launching her modeling career there.
