Almost every judge, except for Tyra Banks, criticized her performances and personality as being "too pageant" and "fake", this came along by a CoverGirl commercial, Thompson landed in the bottom two with contestant Lauren Utter. Thompson received a first call-out[2] during the music-themed photo shoot, and won one CoverGirl of the Week title, from the final photo-shoot challenge of cycle 10. She landed in the bottom two a total of four times, which makes her the winner with most bottom two appearances. Thompson competed in the finale against Anya Kop and won the title, making her the first plus-size model to win the show.
Although she is naturally a brunette, Thompson received blonde hair extensions for her makeover on the show. After the show, she changed her hair color to dark blonde.
The prize package included a contract with CoverGirl cosmetics and a contract with Elite Model Management. She also received the cover and six-page editorial spread in the July 2008 issue of Seventeen magazine.
