Analeigh Tipton became famous after becoming the third runner-up of "America's Next Top Model" and starring in her own TV show, "Manhattan Love Story." She also ventured into movies, starring in "Crazy, Stupid, Love," "Warm Bodies," and last year's "Two Night Stand." The latest gig that Tipton landed will be on the hit CBS comedy show "The Big Bang Theory," where she'll play the new "love interest" of Sheldon Cooper (Jim Parsons).

Meanwhile, Sheldon recruits Raj and Howard to find a woman for him, since they were responsible for getting Amy and him together."
