Samantha Downie (born 21 November 1987, in Melbourne, Victoria) is an Australian model, who participated of the fourth cycle of Australia's Next Top Model. Australia's Next Top Model Downie was a contestant on Australian reality show, Australia's Next Top Model in 2008. Downie was considered the "dark horse" of the series by the judges but Downie performed consistently throughout the series. Towards the end of the series, her photos began to receive universal praise from the judges and Downie also received two first-call outs, which was the highest for Cycle 4 (tied with Caris Eves and Demelza Reveley.) During the competition, Downie was featured in a Seany B video clip for her new song after she was selected by Jamie Lee to join her on the shoot. During a shoot for Peter Alexander pyjamas, Peter asked Downie to go topless and was impressed by her willingness to do something very difficult for some models and stated that he would love to work with her again. During the weekly challenge in episode 9, the models were interviewed by a number of journalists. Downie's down to earth personality won her her first and only challenge win; she won an invite to the Puma party and an interview with Nova's Merrick and Rosso with Kate Ritchie breakfast show. In episode 10, while in New York, Downie was praised for her body and her warm personality but some modelling agencies stated that she might be too commercial. She was featured in a Malan Breton Collection Retrospective in this episode. Downie was eliminated in episode 10 after being deemed too commercial and not as high fashion compared to Alexandra Girdwood and Demelza Reveley. During the finale of Australia's Next Top Model Cycle 4, Downie was voted Australia's Favourite Top Model and won $5,000 Career Samantha was signed to Priscilla's Model Management weeks before the program ended.
