The eighteenth cycle of America's Next Top Model (subtitled as America's Next Top Model: British Invasion) premiered on February 29, 2012 and was the twelfth season to air on The CW. It occupied the time slot of the final two scheduled episodes of Remodeled.[1][2] This was the first American edition of Top Model to be filmed and broadcast in high definition (HD).[3] The cycle featured fourteen contestants, placing seven British models who had competed in previous cycles of Britain's Next Top Model alongside seven all-new American models.[1]

Fashion industry public relations maven Kelly Cutrone replaced Vogue editor André Leon Talley as a judge for the series.[4] The rest of the judging panel remained the same.[1]

The international destinations for this cycle were Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and the special administrative regions of Macau and Hong Kong in China. The show’s second visit to China.

The prizes for this cycle included a modeling contract with LA Models & NY Model Management, a guest correspondent placement with Extra, a fashion spread in Vogue Italia, and both the cover and a spread in Beauty In Vogue, becoming the face of America’s Next Top Model fragrance "Dream Come True", production of a record single released by CBS Records, and a US$100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics.[1][5]

The winner of the competition was 21-year-old British model Sophie Sumner from Oxford, England. American Model Laura LaFrate placed as the runner up.[6] This is also the first cycle in the history of America's Next Top Model in which all three finalists made it to the top three without ever landing in the bottom two during judging.

She also revealed that the weather was so bad, that the tower was closed “to the public due to the treacherous weather”.[26]
  • Dayes revealed on Instagram that the episode 2 photoshoot that with Kris Jenner was filmed on her 25th birthday, describing the day as “one of my best and most memorable birthdays ever!”.[27]
  • It was revealed that Amelia Thomas was supposed to take part as a contestant on America's Next Top Model as the eighth former BNTM Contestant. However, due to stress and other factors, Amelia withdrew before the competition aired.[citation needed]
