Former Next Top Model Contestant Strung Out on Meth


Former America's Next Top Model contestant Jael Strauss makes a shocking appearance on Dr. Phil.

Jael Strauss, a former contestant on America's Next Top Model, has spent six years struggling with a drug addiction which has ravaged her once striking looks, leaving her desperate and homeless.
At 22, Ms Strauss was an aspiring model and a finalist in cycle eight of the Tyra Banks hosted show, But now, the 28-year-old's family says she is close to losing her battle with methamphetamine.
In what they say was a last ditch effort to reach out to their daughter, the family enlisted the help of Dr Phil. However on the episode, which airs on September 13, 'the full blown meth addict' resists all help.
With Ms Strauss living on the streets, Dr. Phil her brother, Brandon, and mother, Debbie, go to her hometown with the hope of finding her. Reluctantly, she agrees to travel to Los Angeles to see Dr. Phil.
However, after she is seen physically resisting being placed on the Dr Phil stage, she then runs away, out onto the Paramount lot.
Dr. Phil follows her, and makes a point of noting: 'This is the first time in ten years I've come out here, [and it's] to talk to you.'

I watched the show and I must admit I wasn't that shocked to hear she was on drugs. She had a friend die from an overdose while she was antm. I thought she acted and sounded drugged up then as well. That photo above truly shows how bad the drugs have affected her. I'm mad at her mother for doing cocaine with her in order as she put it "to spend time with her".

With parents like those you don't need enemies.
Ultimately Jael is the one responsible and I hope rehab works for her.

Tyra put her on antm for entertainment value. Theres no way in hell they didn't know she had serious issues.

May God help her, because she looks at death's door. I missed the episode, hopefully I'll see it in a rerun. Meth like crack doesn't exactly rot your teeth. The effects of the drug cause you to have severe dry mouth...saliva in your mouth is really important folks. meth/crackheads don't take care of themselves and due to lack of lubrication in the mouth, their teeth fall the hell out. No way I would believe this is the same person, with the spreading nose & mouth...but meth turns you into a monster. I guess they'll be adding her to the meth before/after videos in youtube. She was such a pretty girl------DAYUM!

I didn't believe it when I saw this on another site because she looks so different. I always thought she was on drugs. She was always loopy. She does not look 28. She looks her name is Debbie.

SMH@ DR. Phil. So her family couldn't take her to a regular REAL physician who could help her with her real problem, but hook her up with a fake-ass TV personality who's only here for ratings?

@ 11:17 if she successfully recovers and manages to make some decent money she can have the craters in her face fixed they have a procedure for it. So sad that they have so many drugs out there that are taking lives. @2:20 They out her on the show for her to agree to help then they send her to a real person to help her with her problems
