In auditions, Lenox cried to the judges while talking about her deceased father who left her family. She was the seventh model called to the final cast. She won the runner-up call-out for the wet and wild shoot and optical illusion shoot in the next two episodes.
In episode five, she failed to portray sexiness at the teach with Tyra, and even gives up in the middle. She later bombed the Spider Byte commercial, and Tyra was so disappointed in judging that she gave her a score of one. This is the lowest a model has ever got in all the number scoring cycles. She was the original éliminée, but due to Romeo's disqualification, she was saved. However, she was only allowed to take five frames for the next photoshoot.
Despite her nerves getting the better of her at the hair shoot, after a talk with Yu Tsai, she excelled with the limited frames, and won the first call-out. She was also a team captain at the headphone ad challenge, which she won with Kari and Matthew. She had two more first call-outs in a row for the next two episodes. In episode nine, she only booked one show at the go-see challenge, and she couldn't let loose at the Mitch Stone photoshoot. She was in the bottom two again, and saved over Denzel with a 0.1 point difference.
After Chantelle won the Comeback Series, Lenox was one of the most vocal in the house's disdain of her. After the HIV awareness photoshoot, she called Chantelle out for her bad attitude on set. In episode thirteen, Lenox, along with Will and Shei, called her out for lying to Miss Jay at judging about changing her makeup and hair on set.
She was in the bottom two again with Shei in episode fourteen, and became the last girl left in the competition. In the finale, the Guess photoshoot would only be judged by the main judges with no social media score. Lenox, who was adored by the public, was in the bottom two yet again with Keith, and was eliminated. Many fans consider this as deliberate to guarantee a man winning the show.
