With Camera's rolling in New Orleans, Louisiana, John Malkovich joins the cast of Supercon. The comedic feature follows a group of washed up television stars and comic book artists who make their living attending conventions. Down on their luck, the rag tag team hashes a plot to rob the convention and bring justice to a crooked promoter and an overbearing former TV icon.

With a body of work spanning almost three decades, industry legend John Malkovich is one of the most compelling minds in entertainment. His celebrated performances span every genre, and range from roles in thought-provoking independent films to those in big-budget franchises. In addition to being an accomplished actor, Malkovich is also a director, producer, clothing designer, and artist.

The two time Academy Award nominee joins the cast, which includes Mike Epps, Maggie Grace, Russell Peters, Clancy Brown and CariDee English. Supercon is being produced by Gold Star Films...

Throughout 22 cycles, America's Next Top Model produced some of the most inspiring and loved winners in reality television history. From CariDee English's battle with psoriasis in Cycle 7 to Ann Ward's awkward-to-edgy success story in Cycle 15, the modeling series constantly shattered society's perception of beauty. We asked Antm fans who they would pick as the best America's Next Top Model winner of all time, and the clear front-runners included Ann and CariDee, as well as Cycle 3's Eva Pigford, Cycle 6's Danielle Evans, Cycle 13's Nicole Fox and Cycle 22's Nyle Dimarco. Here's a sample of some of the most passionate responses that we received on Facebook.

Let’s be honest, if Tyra Banks tells you, “Congratulations. You are still in the running to be America’s Next Top Model,” you’re already out of the running to be a real top model. While some contestants have found success -- Analeigh Tipton and Yaya DaCosta, arguably two of the most successful alumni, have established careers in acting -- the show has failed to produce an actual working supermodel.

Meanwhile, a number of contestants have found nothing but heartache when cameras stopped rolling. Here are six ill-fated outcomes, the first three actually tragic, horrible and devastating, the latter four more...unfortunate (so as not to compare apples to oranges).

News: Tyra Banks and other Top Model alumni remember Mirjana Puhar

1. Murder: Cycle 21 contestant Mirjana Puhar, 19, was killed in a “possibly drug related” triple homicide on February 24, along with her boyfriend, Jonathan Alvarado, 23, and his roommate, Jusmar Gonzaga-Garcia, 21. Police have arrested...

Former America's Next Top Model contestant Mirjana Puhar was found dead in a Charlotte, North Carolina, apartment on Tuesday. She was 19.

Puhar was one of three victims, including her boyfriend, Jonathan Alvarado, 23, and Jusmar Gonzaga-Garcia, 21. Gonzaga-Garcia was Alvarado's best friend and roommate, according to TMZ.

A source tells TMZ that a friend of Puhar and her boyfriend heard the gunshots and called the police after entering the home and finding the bodies.

According to papers obtained by People, police have arrested Emmanuel Jesus Rangel, 19, and charged him with three counts of first degree murder, the Charlotte-Mecklenburg police department said in a statement.

People — cruel people — love to joke that winning America’s Next Top Model is essentially like getting a pat on the back and a gold star. Roughly zero contestants on Tyra Banks’s long-running series (we’re on Cycle 21 now) have gone on to become supermodels. Instead, maybe they earn a modest living doing runway shows, ad campaigns, and music videos; sometimes they fall to pieces and end up seeking Dr. Phil. Part of the irony in watching Antm: Knowing that their smizes will soon disintegrate into crying emojis. Some, however, defy the odds and flip their quasi-fame into movie roles (those acting challenges really pay off), non-modeling gigs, and more reality TV.

Hello there, and welcome back to the wet and wild world of America's Next Top Model! This week's installation was weird all-around, from the lazy editing to the equine violence to the self-deprecating confessionals. In fact, the entire mood surrounding the episode was somber -- I kept noticing how completely devastated and strung out all the girls were, despite the looming mixed bag of prizes. In cycles of yore, the contestants would be stressed, yes, as the competition neared its close, but also optimistic and somewhat jubilant -- I don't know what kind of maltreatment has been going down in the Top Model house this time around, but everyone looks severely wounded and desperate to escape.

The episode opens with staged shots of each girl pensively pacing the beach as she considers her Top Model existence. Sepia-tone images of the judges fade across the screen, accompanied by the soft echo of former critiques like,...

Yesterday, we gave you a preview of a dramatic intervention staged by the "Dr. Phil" staff for Jael Strauss, a former contestant on "America's Next Top Model."Jael's looks and life were destroyed by an addiction to meth, and her family sought out Dr. Phil's help.Watch as the intervention specialists Debbie and Brandon lure the 28-year-old to her parents' home, where Jael went into a "meth psychosis rage." Watch the disturbing footage below:Former "Top Model" winner CariDee English, who competed on a different season than Jael, wished her the best and revealed how difficult life is after the show, even for the winners.To see what happened to the rest of the "Top Model" winners, check out the gallery below!

With her quirky personality and unusual beauty, Jael Strauss is one of the most memorable contestants in "Top Model" history. During Cycle 8, Jael's friend died of a drug overdose and she struggled to stay in the competition, finishing 5th. In the five years since her season aired, her looks -- and life -- have been ravaged by meth addiction. Jael's family have staged an intervention with the help of Dr. Phil. Watch the dramatic footage below:Caridee English, who won a different season of "America's Next Top Model," commented about Jael's plight on Gawker:"They should have evaluated her a lot more before letting her on the show. All they saw was a personality good for television. Well, this hopefully will save at least her life and someone watching. Everything happens for a reason."Caridee went on to describe about life after "Top Model" and how host/creator Tyra Banks...

The America's Next Top Model-loving world was shocked when Dr. Phil revealed cycle 8 contestant Jael Strauss would be featured on an upcoming episode of his show now that she's sunk deep into a meth addiction.

But perhaps even more shocking are statements cycle 7 winner Caridee English left in Gawker's post about the terrifying trailer, featuring Jael's unsettling new look.

She writes, "Tyra [Banks] won't do anything. She provided a wonderful platform for girls to have a chance at their dream, but, after there is no 'Tyra Mail' I had to guide myself, and even though I won a model competition I still had no idea what the modeling Business was like. … I am not complaining, I am simply defending. I love love what I have made for myself since my win, but mentally, it's horrific. And any girl who has been on Antm can back me up. No one wants to take us serious as models. I am sure...

America's Next Top Model alum Jael Strauss will appear on Thursday's Dr.Phil to undergo an  intervention for her meth addiction.

In the preview, the model is barely recognizable after battling the addiction for the past six years. Strauss, who placed sixth in Cycle 8, appeared on the reality show only five years ago.

Cycle 7 winner CariDee English took to Gawker's comment section to share her thoughts on Strauss' illness, and she calls out Top Model for allowing an addict on reality TV in the first place.

The stars were out on Wednesday night to celebrate Belvedere Vodka's Nylon Summer Music Issue Celebration, with host Shirley Manson and special performance by Garbage. Luckily, I (TheInsider.com's very own Meg Swertlow!) also got an invite to the music-tastic soiree -- and I didn't even have to give up a kidney or my first born. Here are some of the VIP party deets!

After getting locked in the stairwell of parking lot – I feared my friend Kate and I would miss seeing my high school icon perform. But after a lot of yelling, a lot of scrambling up and down several flights of stairs in high heels, we got there just in time to see the amazing Shirley Manson take to the stage and prove once again she ain’t no stupid girl. While she the saucy Scottish singer and her band may have not come out with a record for seven years, the electrifying...

Marilyn Manson has nabbed himself another former blonde babe - and this one is even more surprising than his ex, Evan Rachel Wood. Manson is reportedly dating America's Next Top Model cycle 7 winner CariDee English.

English is apparently coming out with a music album, and she sought Manson's advice and guidance. While working on the album together, according to Life & Style magazine, they discovered they really liked each other. "They've been seeing each other ever since," a source told the magazine. "She loves how different he is."

Manson's ex Wood raised eyebrows when she dyed her blonde hair dark brown when she was dating the singer. English now has also gone from blonde to dark hair - and has even covered his song "Coma White."

"Marilyn Manson inspires and supports me in my music," English told Life & Style exclusively. "He has made me feel comfortable and beautiful with who I...

Shock rocker Marilyn Manson appears to have moved on from his romance with Evan Rachel Wood - reports suggest he's dating model CariDee English. Romance blossomed in the studio, where Manson has been helping the "America's Next Top Model" winner record tracks for a debut album, according to Life & Style magazine.

A source tells the publication, "They met when Marilyn helped CariDee on her album. They've been seeing each other ever since." And English was gushing about the odd pairing when she was asked about her relationship with Manson.

She says, "Marilyn Manson inspires and supports me in my music. He has made me feel comfortable and beautiful with who I am as an artist and as a woman." She has even covered his song "Coma White" on the album.

Marilyn Manson has a new girlfriend, three months after splitting from fiancee Evan Rachel Wood. The shock rocker started dating "America's Next Top Model" winner CariDee English after the pair met at a recording studio where the model was recording vocals for her debut album.

"Marilyn Manson inspires and supports me in my music," CariDee said. "He has made me feel comfortable and beautiful with who I am as an artist and as a woman." A source added to Life and Style magazine, "They've been seeing each other ever since they met. She loves how different he is."

Blond CariDee has dyed her hair dark and reportedly recorded a cover version of her new boyfriend's song "Coma White" after the new couple reportedly bonded over their love of music and fashion. Marilyn was seen partying with a group of mystery in women in August to get over his break-up from Evan.

America's Next Top Model season-seven winner CariDee English debuted a shocking hair transformation, while Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen didn't debut anything at all. What's up with Denise Richards' dye job? And where was Jennifer Lopez hanging with Neil Patrick Harris? Read on for the latest scoop from Fashion Week...  Top Model alum CariDee showed up nearly unrecognizable at the Zac Posen party at Lavo in New York last night with a new Joan Jett-black half-shaved 'do. "I dyed it because inside I have always been a natural black mohawked girl," CariDee told E! News. "People have been shocked by it, but that's my kinda thing." She chatted with Posen,...

She may have risen to the spotlight as a model, but CariDee English has set her heart on being a musician.  The America's Next Top Model Cycle 7 winner has already landed herself a gig hosting the reality series Pretty Wicked on Oxygen, which gives personality makeovers to "bad girls."  Still, it looks as though CariDee is going to undergo some changes herself, career-wise.

On an interview with Zimbio.com, the striking blonde revealed how she's currently busy with her show and getting ready recording her album this November.  What's actually a bit more surprising is that CariDee English might just be headed for the alternative rock genre.

Usually we hear a lot about the winners of America's Next Top Model and what they've been busy with ever since their Cycle ended.  We know how Eva Pigford-Marcille, Whitney Thompson, CariDee English and McKey Sullivan rose to fame outside of the show.  But who's really heard about last season's Teyona Anderson?

Most of us were taken aback by how she beat crowd favorite Allison on Cycle 12, but just how far did she make it afterwards?  Apparently, she's still trying to make it in the world of modeling.  According to Today's Sunbeam, she's busy going from New York to South Africa.  Oh, so that's why we could hardly keep up with her.

Winning America's Next Top Model apparently gives one the right to trash someone else's home, or maybe that's what CariDee English thinks.  Nowadays, she's being called "America's Next Top Slob," but before we jump to that, let's go over the gory details.

According to New York Magazine, CariDee English reportedly subleased a Brooklyn apartment for two weeks through Craigslist.  A deal was struck, but the two parties didn't really meet face-to-face.  When the owner returned home, she found that it was beyond anything she could ever imagine.  She even denied CariDee's deposit back.

The glitterati gathered at the Gibson Amphitheatre to celebrate the past year in cinema at this year's MTV Movie Awards. But, more importantly, they strutted their stuff down the red carpet in chic (or, in some cases, totally chill) outfits.

The sun might have been beating down on the carpet, but that wasn't the only thing that kept celebrities looking hot, hot, hot — it was also their very unique style. Still, however creative the stars got with their looks (hey, Chris Isaac, way to bring back the dog-as-accessory fad with your adorable white puppy!), there were a few standout trends that caught our attention. And no, one of them is not leopard-print leotards, though we do give major props...

U.S. model Caridee English will take time to drink between catwalk assignments after passing out at an event in Connecticut at the weekend.

The America's Next Top Model winner, 22, was hospitalised for dehydration after fainting at a party held at Shrine.

Her spokesperson says, "She is fine and back to work in Los Angeles."

English won last year's seventh season of America's Next Top Model, which is hosted by Tyra Banks.

America's Next Top Model champ CariDee English was hospitalized for dehydration, her rep confirms to People. A source says English was taken by ambulance last weekend from the Mgm Grand at Foxwoods in Connecticut, where she was attending a party at Shrine, a new restaurant/club. "CariDee did go to the hospital in the early hours of Sunday morning to be treated for dehydration," her rep confirms. "She called to be taken to the hospital.
