Angelea Preston
Biography
Angelea Preston (born June 16, 1986) is an award winning American reporter and former model. She is best known for her appearances on America's Next Top Model. Preston placed in the top four on cycle 14 and was the original winner of All-Stars, before being disqualified.
It was unknown for some time why she was disqualifed. However, in 2013, Preston revealed to the DailyMail it was due to her work as an escort after Cycle 12. Preston claims that producers knew about her work pre All Stars. In 2014, she brought a legal claim against Banks, Silva, Mok, The CW, and other entities involved with the show. According to the complaint, in addition to alleging that she’d been the rightful winner, Preston also alleged that contestants had been paid less than minimum wage, had been denied rest breaks, had been prohibited from speaking for periods up to six hours, and had been denied food and water for hours at a time. The lawsuit was later dropped by Preston when she "realized [she] wasn't going to win."
Since leaving the modeling industry, Preston received a bachelor’s degree in journalism at Buffalo State College in 2021. She now works as a Sunday host for NPR’s WBFO in her hometown.
