America's Next Top Model Winner Reveals Shocking Finale Secrecy Clause

Former America's Next Top Model winner India Gants has shed light on the intense secrecy surrounding the show's finale, revealing the strict rules contestants faced regarding their victory. In a recent online video, Gants disclosed that Tyra Banks, the show's creator and host, explicitly warned winners that prematurely revealing their success would lead to a complete reshoot of the finale, with the title potentially being awarded to another contestant. Gants shared the challenge of keeping such a significant secret, stating she was initially only able to confide in her then-boyfriend and her father. She deliberately withheld the information from her three siblings, allowing them to experience the live broadcast of the finale and discover her win in real-time. Gants described their reaction as genuinely excited and proud, an emotional moment she captured on video.
