14-year-old Tayane Leão, born in the northern state of Pará, beat over 5 million girls from 44 different countries yesterday in Montenegro, and became the new Ford Supermodel of the World. She won a US$ 250,000 two-year contract with Ford Models on top of the R$ 150,000 contract she signed when she won Ford Supermodel Brazil back in November.
Tayane is the second Brazilian to ever win Supermodel of the World. The first one was Camila Finn back in 2004.
