It was such a close call this year! Every one of the Top Ten Finalists put their whole heart into promoting themselves and the results directly reflected it. We were so very impressed that throughout the entire competition it remained a positive experience, with many artists supporting one another.
This year the final round brought in more than three times the amount of votes that last year's competition brought in. It was wonderful to have fans, friends, and more peers start to follow us after seeing their favorite artists promote the contest.
The top three finalists will receive a cash prize. Cover Model of the Year 2026 will receive an exclusive front cover feature with interview along with a free print copy of that issue, a one year free subscription to the Diamond Showcase, a Diamond Facet Magazine swag bag, tiara and sash.
Congratulations to all of the talented models who competed this year!
