Nineteen year old Philadelphia native Caitlin Williams filed a $1.5 million lawsuit against New York Model Management on Thursday because  the firm ripped her off.

“I really honestly thought, ‘Wow, I’m going to be a model,’” Williams said. “And it wasn’t like that at all.”

But in a lawsuit filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, Williams charges the contest was rigged so Stam would win.

The aspiring catwalk maven says she never saw a penny of her promised $75,000 payday.

“‘Guaranteed,’ seems to me, to be what it says – guaranteed,” said her attorney Anthony LoPresti. “Yet she was never paid.”

New York Model Management allegedly sent her on several “pointless and inappropriate castings.”

On one assignment Caitlin was allegedly injured when a glass runway in Brazil collapsed.

“I lost my high school memories and missed a lot of school,” Williams said. “And I never saw anything in return.”
