Winning America's Next Top Model

Linkletter appeared on the UPN reality television show

America's Next Top Model, Cycle 5 after auditioning for the show at the Mall of America and was the tenth girl chosen for the top thirteen to compete. Over her stay, Linkletter received one first call-out, was part of a non-elimination bottom two with Jayla Rubinelli and survived her second bottom two appearance over Bre Scullark
. In the final judging, the judges selected Linkletter over the runner-up Nik Pace.

Tyra Banks said of Linkletter, "She's got that 'It' thing."[4] Fellow judges Twiggy and Nigel Barker likened Linkletter's look to that of an "English rose". Twiggy commented, "She has that magical something that you can't quite put your finger on. It's not enough to just be pretty."[4] Although she had some of the best photos of the whole competition, she often did not receive as much recognition as some of the other contestants because of her seemingly "sour" facade and not breaking from pretty to beautiful in her photos.

I was always the girl who, like, never really got that much attention. And now here I am—I'm a CoverGirl and I'm a Ford model... my life is beginning right now—Nicole's life as a CoverGirl!
