Eugena Washington is an American model. She was a contestant from cycle 7 of ANTM in 2006, where she was the second runner-up.

ANTM[]

Eugena made a strong first impression at casting when she stated that she thought that the girls of cycle 6 were boring. She was the 4th girl selected to be in the final 13. She became good friends with Monique despite the fact that she had stolen her bed. After getting long hair as her makeover, she won the make-up challenge in episode three, but landed in the bottom two the following week because of her weak pictures. She was saved as Monique had missed her photoshoot and as such went home. She then won another challenge on extreme posing.

Her photos became better about half way through the cycle but she landed in the bottom two again because Tyra thought she had a condescending attitude. She was praised for her strong improvement in the following weeks, winning a third challenge on flamenco posing, and having a first call-out in episode ten.

She was eliminated on the first half of the finale, her third bottom two appearance, as the judges felt that Melrose was more consistent. On the show she was known for confronting Melrose quite a few times but stated in a post show interview that they were actually friends and it was selective editing.[1]

She was featured as a "Top Model In Action" bumper for cycle 11.[2]
