Martina is on a lucky streak, Noëlla becomes a lone fighter, Lieselotte wants to throw in the towel and everyone has to undress.
In order to make modeling unnecessarily difficult for her protégés, Heidi Klum (48) came up with something particularly mean for the eleventh episode of “Germany’s next top model” (Thursdays, 8:15 p.m., ProSieben): two girls each have to walk the catwalk together chained together by jackets sewn together at the sleeves and hair braided together. “If one of us does it, the other one will be half bald afterwards,” Luca (19) comments on her hairstyle with Amaya.
Martina’s winning streak
This time Maye Musk (73) is an additional juror – supermodel, mother of Elon Musk (50) and great role model for Martina. The 50-year-old can’t believe her luck: “I’m so happy, that’s the best, most fascinating moment of the whole season for me!” She can also do the twin walk in front of Musk with a very special person at her side: her daughter Lou-Anne (18). Even if there is tension in the mother-daughter team when practicing. Lou-Anne: “What parents are like… They always want to give you tips…”
There is a surprise for the two of them in the evaluation: for the first time Lou-Anne is a touch better than her experienced mother. Lou-Anne enjoys her victory: “You can get some tips from me soon!” But Martina doesn’t really need them. In the same episode, she outperforms her younger competitors to land the runway job for Berlin Fashion Week casting Marc Cain. There she also meets Soulin (20) from the previous season, who also comes out as a big fan. Run with her!
Noëlla is being bullied
It’s much harder for Noëlla (24). The tensions with their roommates have increased so much that the three Mean Girls – Vivien (22), Amaya (18) and Anita (20) – demonstratively move out of the room. Noëlla tries to come to terms with her role as an outsider. “I’d rather be alone with myself than being unwanted,” she says after her first lonely night.
During the twin walk, she is then chained to Vivien, who does not hide her displeasure: “I was shocked at first, it’s clear that you would like to have a partner with whom you get along well.” The run in front of Heidi becomes just as uncomfortable as any other interaction between the two. In the evening, Noëlla cries out with Lou-Anne: “You have formed your opinion, I have to learn to accept it. And inner distance so that I don’t break myself.”
Lieselotte wants to throw in the towel
This time there is only gold paint on the skin for the shooting. And a challenging set: The women are supposed to adjust the hands in an oversized watch with their golden bodies. For Lieselotte (66) a limit has been reached: “There is now a point where I say, as much as I love my Heidi, it really doesn’t have to be.” Lieselotte seriously wants to go. Juliana (24) is horrified: “If you’ve come this far, you shouldn’t throw it away now.” Martina, who is otherwise so strong, suddenly bursts into tears: “It shocks me a lot.”
But Heidi Klum obviously cares a lot about her best ager – and doesn’t want to let her go. “That the loose Lieselotte in particular has a problem with nudity…” says the model mom, shaking her head and showing the 66-year-old what options there are for covering yourself despite being nudity. Lieselotte hadn’t expected so much attention and is still persuaded: “She’s like a friend. She found the tone to just get me. I’d like to jump over my shadow now…”
Most women also cut a very good figure at the watch. Martina immediately convinces with her pose at four o’clock: “That’s so good!” Scream Heidi and the photographer. Juliana wins them over by setting both hands and feet to twelve o’clock and hanging like a teardrop in the clock. “She’s my favourite!”, the photographer is happy about the extraordinary pose. Noëlla also convinces with her performance and can announce to the others that she is definitely further. But not all girls find it so easy.
What actually is a ground beef belly
Especially the strength in the arms leaves many after a short time. Anita’s whole body is trembling quickly and she can hardly hold herself up. Neither the photographer nor the model give up at Amaya, but a good picture just doesn’t want to get around. And Sophie (18) also disappointed Heidi with her performance.
All three girls are now becoming wobbly candidates and have to adjust to flying at the end of the day. Sophie explains the tormenting feeling: “You have a mincemeat belly, so butterflies in your stomach just the other way around, just negative.” In any case, she’s the best quibbler of the season. And she can breathe again – in the end Amaya has to go, who couldn’t convince either at the walk or at the shooting.
