Germany's Next Topmodel (often abbreviated as GNTM) is a German reality television series, based on a concept that was introduced by Tyra Banks with America's Next Top Model. The competition is hosted by Heidi Klum. She also serves as the lead judge and executive producer of the show.

Show format[]

Each yearly search of Germany's Next Topmodel has 10 to 17 episodes and starts with 12–31 contestants. Each episode, one contestant is eliminated, though a double/triple elimination or no elimination was given by consensus of the judging panel.

Makeovers are administered to contestants early in the competition (usually after the first or second elimination in the finals).

Differences between ANTM and GNTM[]

While the American version's usually started with thirty-something semi-finalists who are cut down to a batch of between ten and sixteen contestants, Germany's Next Topmodel season premieres begin with highlights from the auditions of 100 candidates (cycles 1 and 2) and 120 candidates (cycle 3) respectively.

The panel challenge in front of the judges on America's Next Top Model is almost always replaced by a runway walk in front of the judges on the German show.

In the elimination process on America's Next Top Model, host Tyra Banks hands out a photograph to each of the contestants who are safe, in order of merit. The bottom two of each episode are called to stand before Banks and are judged individually.

The call-out order does play a major role in determining who this week's best contestant was – quite in contrast to Germany's Next Topmodel where the call-out order does not say anything about the quality of the contestants' performance, except in the final. Moreover, they are called out one by one while the others are waiting in the backstage lobby. The US contestants are all present. GNTM also starts the finale with 3 or 4 contestants left, it usually takes 2h. In ANTM, the finale starts with 2 or 3 contestants left and takes 1h.

The final five or six contestants travel to an international destination on the American show while Germany's version is noncommittal about the number of journeys abroad; cycle 1 went abroad two times, cycle 2 did so four times and cycle 3 went to six different countries.

On America's Next Top Model, the final two or three contestants compete in a runway, and the winner is chosen in the judging room. On Germany's Next Topmodel, the final three or four contestants compete in a runway and a photo shoot in front of live audience in Cologne, Germany before the winner is revealed. The final show is live on TV. Cycle 4 final show was the first to air live from a concert hall instead of a TV studio.

Due to the pregnancy of Heidi Klum, the start of the fifth season was postponed and kicked off in March. Instead a spin-off called Die Model WG was shown featuring several former contestants from the show and hosted by judge Peyman Amin.

Host and Judges[]

Only Heidi Klum herself has been part of the judging panel on every cycle. All the other permanent judges have always been male. Thomas Hayo remained a permanent judge the longest (six consecutive cycles), followed by Peyman Amin (four consecutive cycles). After leaving the show, Amin eventually hosted the show's spin-off, Die Model WG, and signed cycle 5's winner Alisar Ailabouni despite never meeting her on the show. And although Boris Entrup only was a regular judge on cycle two, he still was part of the show until 2017 as the make up advisor for the girls. In 2017 Wolfgang Joop became the first former judge to return as he was a guest judge for one episode as well as the finale, he came back in 2018 as well.

The judging panel since the 14th season consists of guest judges only with Klum being the only permanent judge.[2]

Criticism and Controversies[]

Since Season 5, the show's ratings decreased.[3] In an attempt to increase the ratings, the format is increasingly focusing on conflicts between contestants.[4]

In 2009, German model Julia Stegner said that Germany's Next Topmodel had "little to do with the reality of modelling."[5]

In 2011, season 5 winner Alisar Ailabouni withdrew from her contract with ONEeins Management (which is managed by Heidi Klum's father Günther), which she received as part of her prize page for winning the competition.[6] This was first time a winner of the show sued her way out of a prize contract. Ailabouni was not invited to Season 6's live finale, while several ProSieben-related magazines referred to Season 4 winner Sara Nuru as "last year's winner", given she was working as a backstage host. Since then, a number of other contestants have withdrawn from their contracts with ONEeins, including Viktoria Lantratova[7] and Miriam Höller (both Season 5),[8] Jana Beller (Season 6 winner),[7] Luise Will (Season 8)[9] and Aminata Sanogo (Season 9).[10]

In 2012, former judge Rolf Scheider criticized the program, saying, "The show has never produced a new Nadja Auermann or Claudia Schiffer", and that girls who "lack modelling talent" are selected purely for ratings.[11] Regardless of this, he appeared on the fifth cycle of Austria's Next Topmodel as a judge.

In 2013, Klum was criticized by German comedian Cordula Stratmann, who branded Klum "the face and soul of a cold-hearted, disgusting production" and "the trainer in malice and condescension."[12]

In May 2013, during the live finale of Season 8, Klum was attacked by two topless Femen activists, Zana Ramadani and Hellen Langhorst, who flashed her.[13]

In April 2014, Miriam Höller, from Season 5 said in an interview that contestants are poorly treated on the show; for example, they are not given enough food or their mobile phones are taken away. She also said that Klum was "extremely cold", and criticized the cooperation with Günther Klum. She also mentioned that a client who had worked with her before the show wanted to book her but ONEeins said Höller was busy, even though she wasn't busy at that time. The client was offered to book Sara Nuru instead of Höller.[8]

In April 2014, German model Eva Padberg said that the show was just entertainment and not the reality of model business. She also expressed her hopes for participating girls to know this.[14]

In May 2015, psychiatrist Manfred Lütz said according to a study "GNTM" promoted anorexia.[15] Also, in that time, "Germany's Next Topmodel" was checked by the German Commission for the Protection of Minors in the Media (Kommission für Jugendmedienschutz). Since the first Season, the show is subject of repeated checks by the Commission.[16][17][18]

In September 2015, former judge Wolfgang Joop criticized the show as well, stating he didn't want to be part of that anymore since "The viewers expect things that the fashion expert does not. Namely, contestants collapsing, getting homesick, crying and falling on their heels. These are stories that do not interest us in the fashion world."[19][20]

In 2017 in Episode 9 of Season 12 the contestants had a photo shoot on a bed with male models wearing lingerie. The photo shoot took place in the streets of Los Angeles and caused a car accident and Heidi Klum made fun of that accident. The audience and several media criticized Heidi Klum and the show for that.[21][22]

In May 2017 the finale of Season 12 aired and Heidi Klum was heavily criticized by the media and audience for her performance. For example, Süddeutsche Zeitung said, that the only winner of the show after 12 Seasons is just Heidi Klum and not the participants. They critzied that it does not matter who is winning the show, because it is only about promotion, the showmanship of Heidi Klum herself and about showing a pestilent body image.[23][24][25] Among other things, Heidi Klum had sung by means of Playback and was criticized for the quality of this performance by Spiegel Online.[26] In addition to that, the Season 12 finale had very low ratings.[27]

Also in May 2017 the German radio and television broadcaster Philipp Walulis criticized the show and its practices within his YouTube-show "Walulis" as well. His main criticism is that the contestants get gagging contracts and that the show is only concerned about advertising campaigns instead of the contestants. Within this video, former contestants have their say.[28]

Beth Ditto said in June 2017: "I see it very critically that in programs like this girls are stirred up against each other. There are so many other ways to do what you want without such a show that destroys so many dreams."[29]

In May 2018 Season 13 contestant Victoria Pavlas officially said that Pro7 and the Team behind Germany's Next Topmodel portrayed her in a wrong way on television. She said: "I do not want to be portrayed like this by Pro7 only for Fame." In addition to that, like many contestants in the history of the show, she also got out of her contract, and she did not appear on the live finale.[30][31]

In 2019 Season 4 contestant Tessa Bergmeier criticized the show and revealed the practices of the crew behind the camera, stating: "The production people often put words and phrases in the contestants mouths that they would never have said." She also said, that she never applied for the show, she was hired because of her emotional nature.[32]

In 2019 in Season 14 there was a physical fight between contestants Jasmin Cadete and Lena Lischewski shown on Television, leading to the disqualification of Cadete. The lawyer of Lischewski sued ProSieben and the cameramen saying: "It is unacceptable that a television station films how a minor is beaten by another participant during the filming and the present camera crew does not intervene immediately, but continues to film the scene."[33]

Also in Season 14 in 2019 after Vanessa Stanat quit, ProSieben took over her official Instagram account. Shortly after, Stanat did not have access to her personal account either. Many, including Stanat herself, believe that this happened due to ProSieben being angry about her announcing her quit just a few weeks before the finale. Rebecca Mir took to Instagram to discredit Stanat, however she and ProSieben received backlash, because ProSieben shared personal information about Stanat with Mir.[34]

In 2020, Season 14 winner Simone Kowalski said that "it is not right that it is perceived as entertainment, how young people make each other down." She also stated, that she is not able to watch the show.[35]

Contestant Lijana Kaggwa received death threats after participating in Season 15 of Germany's Next Topmodel. She told that she was spat on the street, her car was refilled and people tried to poison her dog which led to police protection. Therefore, she took consequences herself and quit in the live final. Christian Vock from web.de criticized the show for not being completely aware of the death threats. He said that the editing room was mainly used to show unpleasant statements from Lijana on TV and thus exaggerate it.[36][37] Mareike Fangmann from Stern (magazine) wrote: The broadcasting channel ProSieben has also a complicity because the broadcaster knows exactly how to cut scenes together in order to identify a clear bitch. Good for the ratings, good for the show. [...] But ProSieben should have protected Lijana beforehand. Could have omitted scenes to protect her and thus incited less hatred.[38] In December 2020 Lijana Kaggwa also stated: "The broadcast of GNTM 2020 completely ruined me mentally. I've become a different person. Bit by bit it took away my self-confidence and my lust for life."[39]

In December 2020 Nathalie Volk (contestant from Season 9) stated, that she would rather jump out of a window than ever working again with Heidi Klum.[40]

In December 2020 Season 14 winner Simone Kowalski met Günther Klum (the father of Heidi Klum) in court. In the end, the court decided: The employment contract with Günther Klum will be terminated retrospectively and Simone will receive her full salary.[41]

In February 2021 Season 15 winner Jacky Wruck has sued from her employment contract with Heidi Klum GmbH & Co. KG / ONE eins fab Management. This was announced by her lawyer.[42]

In February 2021 in Season 16 the contestants had to walk nude in front of Heidi Klum. That would be heavily criticized by the audience and even by the German Ministry of Family Affairs, Senior Citizens, Women and Youth. The Ministry stated: "Sexism is not something that we can simply tolerate or ignore. Together we need to be very clear about sexism for what it is: namely, a form of violence.". Also Season 10 winner Vanessa Fuchs said, that she wouldn't have done that, saying: "My fashion shows weren't nude shows."[43]

In March 2021 former contestant Jana Heinisch said, that disputes are deliberately provoked with lies from the production company. The crew manipulates the contestants behind the scenes. The edit alone decides whether a girl is likeable or not.[44]

In April 2021 in Season 16 the contestants had to do a photoshoot at a height of 122 meters. Contestant Linda Braunberger had a panic attack during the shoot and because of that, she was eliminated by Heidi Klum. This was heavily criticized by the media and viewers.[45] Braunbeger also stated, like many contestants before, that she was portrayed in a wrong and very negative way, saying: "I've already noticed that I was portrayed in a blatantly negative way. We also had nice moments together, but unfortunately they weren't shown."[46]

Also in April 2021, former contestant Theresia Fischer said, that the contestants were only allowed to go to the toilet if they had signed off. When the show started, it was no longer possible to go to the toilet.[47]

In Season 16 six contestants quit the competition, most of them stating, that during the shooting of the show they were not feeling well, especially mentally.[48][49]

Contestant Ashley Amegan (Season 16) said the production team had bullied her into changing her personality for the show.[50] That's why she left the show even though she made it to the live finale.[51]

As of 2021 three finalists quit the competition before the live finale.[52]

In February 2022 once again the contestants had one of the countless nude photo shoots for the 17th season. This time the girls had to pose fully naked in a public area. Some of the girls were not covered at all and in a result to that paparazzi took pictures of the girls and very explicit pictures ended up on the internet. Once again the production company, Heidi Klum and the broadcasting channel ProSieben were heavily critized for the fact that the naked shooting took place in public and the girls were not protected.[53][54]
