If you haven’t seen the conclusion of the seventh cycle of America’s Next Top Model you may want to stop reading now.

Last night, Tyra Banks and co. crowned CariDee English the winner in a surprising victory over the solid, but older, Melrose Bickerstaff in the CW show’s finale.

CariDee was set on beating Melrose, especially after third place finalist Eugena Washington was ousted. CariDee didn’t hide her hatred for Melrose as the series went on, often calling her fake and a suck-up.

CariDee takes home a management deal from Elite Model Management, the cover and spread of Seventeen magazine, and a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl cosmetics.

Wait 14 more weeks, though, and claws will come out on the eighth cycle of ANTM beginning Jan. 20, 2007.
