Allison Harvard from America's Next Top Model

In threads featuring her more zombie-like states, she is referred to as Creepy Chan or Tussin Chan. In threads featuring her softer, innocent side, she’s called Cute Chan.

Allison Harvard (AKA Creepy Chan, Tussin Chan, Cute Chan) was born in New Orleans, Louisiana in 1989. Pictures of this very big-eyed person started popping up on 4Chan in late 2005. The photos there feature a range of looks, usually landing somewhere between Fiona Apple in the video for Criminal, to Genie the wild child. Allison Harvard’s own photos and drawings take on the cliche of heroin chic and add a whole new layer of weirdly interesting macabre beauty.

In March of 2009, Allison Harvard joined the cast of America’s Next Top Model for their 12th season. On the May 6, 2009 episode of America’s Next Top Model, Celia was sent home and Allison had the top photo, making her one of the final three models. In the finale on May 13, 2009, Allison was passed over as America’s Next Top Model, coming in at number two behind Teyona Anderson.

Many ANTM fans have hypothesized that Harvard is faking her fascination with blood in order to gain attention. Her Flickr page would seem to support claims of having a fascination with blood.
