'America's Next Top Model: British Invasion' Finale: Medical Emergency Before A Winner Is Chosen (VIDEO)

And The Winner Of 'ANTM: British Invasion' Is ...
|

On the season finale of "America's Next Top Model: British Invasion" (Wed., 9 p.m. ET on The CW) Wednesday night, the models braced themselves to find out who would be crowned the winner.

First, though, Laura and Sophie had their last challenges, a commercial shoot for CoverGirl, a shoot for Vogue Italia and a runway show for Forever 21.

However, it all became too much for one of the two finalists.

Last American standing Laura collapsed at the CoverGirl shoot, sparking off a medical emergency. She was rushed to the hospital where doctors diagnosed her as having a severe panic attack.

Next the girls were taken to Vogue Italia, where again Laura wowed the client, but Brit model Sophie -- who was the runner-up on "Britain's Next Top Model" -- shone as well.

Finally, after the girls walked the runway for Forever 21, Tyra Banks stood to announce the results. The winner was ... Sophie.

Tyra and her new line-up of fashionistas are currently hard at work on "America's Next Top Model" Cycle 19, which will air on Fridays at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
