Ex-GNTM candidate Jana Heinisch talks about Heidi Klum and chats out of the box: So “the super model mom” is actually about her young models.
- Ex-GNTM candidate Jana Heinisch clarifies a few things.
- Season 15 is currently running on ProSieben.
- It was really like that with Heidi and the girls.
Munich - Jana Heinisch from Bremen took part in the successful ProSieben casting show "Germany's Next Tomodel" (GNTM) as a top model candidate and finished 14th at the time. She does not regret her participation, even if she is somewhat more critical of TV production today than it was then. Jana, who tried her luck as an influencer after being kicked out in season 9, has her very own opinion on model mom Heidi Klum .
Many girls still dream of making the breakthrough to the world-famous supermodel by participating in "Germany's next top model" *. Ex-GNTM candidate Jana Heinisch knows how the shooting really works. In an interview with “Watson”, she looks back positively, but also criticizes. Especially model mom Heidi Klum doesn't get away so well. So she didn't take care of her young models all the time, as is conveyed in every episode.
GNTM 2020: Incredible, Heidi simply lets model flash off
When asked how the contact with Heidi was on site, Jana says: “It was very rare. Back then, I think she had 30 fixed days of shooting for the entire 9th season . They were seen about once or twice a week. It was all about the shoot. ”And adds:“ I remember a situation at our first stop in Singapore . The first or second girl flew out of there and went to Heidi to ask why. But the cameraman was already gone. Heidi just looked up from her cell phone, turned left and right and said ' sorry, no camera ' and looked at her cell phone again. She just left the girl there. "There is no sound if it could not be used in any way later," explains Jana. And she goes on: "Maybe that was the key reason why we girls were such a blatant team. But you have to consider: this is for Heidi Klum just a job . She knows exactly what to say. She is a professional through and through. If I were her, I can't even promise that I wouldn't do it the same way. "
GNTM 2020: what happens after a day of shooting
There was no opportunity for Heidi's protégés to get in touch with her and will probably not be any different for the GNTM candidates of the current season. "No, because it's always a bit like on a stage. When your shoot is over , you will be guided backstage again. And our area had nothing to do with Heidi Klum * , ”says the former flight attendant and continues:“ The only time we had a more private situation was when we were supposed to go shopping. Heidi came with us in the car. But that was only, I think, because her bodyguards were n't there with their car. "
GNTM 2020: is the show the stepping stone to the world's catwalks?
Jana has a very clear answer to this: “First and foremost, it is an entertainment format that has modeling as the main topic. But it's not about discovering or promoting models at GNTM *. If you weren't a model before, then you won't be after participating. “Many ex-participants quickly disappear from the scene after the finale , including last season's winner Simone Kowalski *. Jana Heinisch is now a successful influencer and has never seen Heidi Klum again since the show.
