[edit] Biography
[edit] Top Model
Stewart competed on the first season of America's Next Top Model. She and fellow contestant Robbyne Manning caused controversy when they refused to pose nude for one of the photoshoots because of their Christian faith. However, this did not hinder Stewart's progression in the competition as she ended up being first runner-up to Adrianne Curry. She was known on the show as the very "commercial and apple-pie girl". She openly voiced her disagreement with gay lifestyles in episode 4, when an openly-gay housemate wanted to invite her girlfriend over.
[edit] Modeling career
Stewart continued to model, and signed with Ford Models in Chicago and Major Model Management.
She has modeled for Nuj Novakhett, ELLEgirl Magazine, Teen Vogue, Sydney Magazine, Six Degrees Magazine and FORD fusion. Shannon has appeared on the cover of Arizona Foothills Magazine, and Sound & Vision Magazine. Her runway shows include: Richard Tyler, Alice and Olivia Fall 2006, Sprite Street Couture 2006, and ELLEgirl presents Dare To Be You: Wal-Mart Meets America's Next Top Models 2005, Fashion Institute of Technology 2006 and Gustavo Arango Fall 2006.
[edit] Pageantry
Following her America's Next Top Model success, Stewart entered the Miss Ohio USA 2004 competition held in late 2003. She placed first runner-up to Lauren Kelsey Hall in that pageant. Stewart later competed again for the Miss Ohio USA 2006 crown in 2005, but she only made the semi-finals. The title was won by Stacy Offenberger.
