The big casting continues at the model show. There is a mother of four, African nobility and men with trauma. Things get a little bad when high heels come into play.
If the excitement causes numb feet, then it’s still casting time for “Germany’s Next Top Model”. In the second episode of the 19th season broadcast by Pro Sieben, Heidi Klum is also looking for suitable faces – and finds lots of people “with poor recognition value,” as one candidate puts it.
Like the young woman who is particularly noticeable because she stumbles painfully slowly on the catwalk in her high heels at the interview. She says she is so excited that she can no longer feel her feet – before Klum asks her to change her shoes. And what do aspiring models say when they have to slip into shoes that Klum has already “sweated” a bit into (original sound)? Yes, of course! No sweat, no gain, obviously it doesn’t even have to be your own.
Marvin from Bielefeld, the king’s son
But self-overcoming alone won’t get you anywhere: the woman who can’t feel her feet is eliminated. Instead, a mother of four and Marvin from Bielefeld, whose father is king of a village in Ghana, make it to the next round. The 22-year-old lives a normal life in Germany, he says, but will one day rule like his father – “mainly via cell phone.”
And if that’s not crazy enough for you, there’s also Livingsten, who you’ll never forget. At least that’s what Livingsten thinks. In fact, people from Saarland in particular are likely to remember him from now on, after all he dissed the state from which he originally comes in front of Klum: “Saarland, let’s not talk about it!”
Of course he does, trauma has to be processed after all. In Saarland he was always looked at strangely, says Livingsten, who likes to dress conspicuously. However, he now lives in Berlin “as free as a bird”. This much can already be said after two episodes of “Germany’s Next Top Model” and there is no shortage of characters this time.
With Jean Paul Gaultier “in the school camp”
Jean Paul Gaultier, who makes a brief appearance in the show at the end, is also happy about the diversity of the models – and the fact that men are there for the first time. The famous designer is sure that this will provide “energy”. Candidate Armin gives an idea of exactly what kind of energy he has: he feels like he’s “in a school camp,” he explains, before continuing to flirt with a woman next to him.
Before too many positive feelings arise, Klum prefers to announce that she now has to throw out some of the models that she had already selected for a fashion show. Viewers will find out who that will be on February 29th at 8:15 p.m. Numb feet are almost certain again.
