Biography

When Lisa joined "America's Next Top Model", she was a 24-year-old wardrobe stylist from Los Angeles.

America's Next Top Model

On the show, Lisa was portrayed as the girl with the most outrageous personality. Lisa was a heavy drinker, and performed several odd things, including talking to a shrub she named Cousin It and urinating in an adult diaper used for a photoshoot in front of the other contestants and the Wildboyz.

The "Top Model" judges eliminated D'Amato eighth, as they perceived her spitfire confidence as arrogance, although her pictures and personality had been considered some of the strongest of the contestants.Fact|date=March 2007It is speculated that Lisa was eliminated because her face was "not right for modeling, not even catalog modeling".
