	+ the first season in which a contestant quit the competition (Chanel)
	+ the first season to introduce a "Looksync for Entry" twist
	+ the first season to have an eliminated contestant return in the same season (Delancey)

Everyone in the top 3 this season had to look sync for their life at least once.

Each contestant in the top three of Season 3 had three total wins. Additionally, each of them had to look sync for their lives once.

Aspen is the lowest scoring winner with a score of 28. She also has the lowest points per episode of any winner. Before herself, Clover was also the lowest scoring winner with the lowest points per episode.
