Have you ever noticed that every cycle of “America’s Next Top Model” has at least one contestant with a sob story? These women don’t try to exact pity by revealing their experiences, but rather try to increase their strength and persevere through the competition with the help of their histories. Tyra Banks and the producers, on the other hand, often try to make the contestant seem pathetic, harp on her sad story, or criticize her for not being strong enough when facing adversity. And of course, Cycle 14, which premiered last night, is no different. Keep clicking to check out the “ANTM” sob story hall of fame and to find out which contestant this season has had an extremely hard-knock life.
