Julia Is Crowned True Beauty!

clipped from tvwatch.people.com The former pageant queen reigned supreme! After eight weeks, numerous hidden-camera challenges and the biggest test of all–living under the same roof with nine other self-proclaimed perfect 10s, Julia Anderson emerged the winner of last night’s True Beauty. Calling her victory a “second chance to redeem” herself, the one-time Miss Teen Texas proved to be the only Beauty contestant to pass all of the show’s hidden challenges. In last night’s finale, Anderson, 23, along with the show’s two remaining finalists, Joel Rush, 26, an imagining software salesman from Tampa, Fla., and Billy Jeffrey, 31, a vitamin shop owner and Chippendale’s dancer from Lewiston, Ida., faced what host Vanessa Minnillo called their “last and most important challenge.” Which was, of course, the PEOPLE magazine challenge.
