Will America's next top model be from Houston?

For Houston reality TV fans who have been waiting to see our city represented ever since Erica left The Bachelor, we have good news. This season - uh, cycle - of America's Next Top Model features a very pretty Houstonian. Meet Felicia. She's 19 and works as a sales associate. If she wins, she will receive a $100,000 modeling contract with Covergirl, a spread in Seventeen Magazine and representation by a top model agency. We hope Felicia breaks all the rules of being a Houston woman. That is, we hope she's not nuts.

Tyra tells us in the preview that this cycle of ANTM will not only be fierce, it will be ferocious. Another interesting note: this cycle features two plus-size models, both of whom list their occupations as "college student." Models plus freshman fifteen? Sounds dishy.

Stay tuned to Houstonist for ANTM updates and Felicia news as it breaks.
