- The 15th season of GNTM starts on ProSieben on January 30th .
- The broadcaster has already announced the candidates for the final rounds.
- 28 young women between 16 and 27 years are fighting for the coveted title of " Germany's next Top Model ".
Munich - With "the most beautiful time of the year" ProSieben advertises the casting show "Germany's Next Top Model" and it starts a week earlier this year: The 15th season of Heidi Klum's model search starts with the preliminary decisions on January 30th . In the first episode, 38 girls had the opportunity to convince the British star designer Julien McDonald at a fashion show in Munich for the GNTM jury * and Heidi Klum * and to go on the "big trip" as Heidi Klum calls it ,
However, the broadcaster has already indirectly announced the candidates who are still there after the first opening sequence. For 13 girls, the dream of becoming “Germany's Next Top Model” is already over after the first episode. And that's just the beginning: Girls have to go every week, because we know that only one can become “Germany's Next Top Model”.
GNTM candidate Nadine * (20) made it into the top 25 in the 15th season "Germany's next top model". The 20-year-old from the Fürstenfeldbruck district near Munich has already won a popular model competition. However, after episode one there are three more successors, which causes displeasure in the other 25 girls. But especially Maribel, who has moved up, has to deal with a heavy blow of fate.
Find out here who the 28 young women are, who shot the ProSieben introductory videos and who are supposed to give us the best time of the year. Three Meeeedchen move up in succession two: Jacky, Valeria and Maribel - of course, that is not so well received by the other candidates and causes controversy. That could be too much, especially for Maribel, who had a tragic family history.
GNTM 2020: This year, Heidi relies on diversity among the candidates
"Also in this 15th season of GNTM * I'm looking forward to diversity and many different personalities and characters in the cast," says Heidi Klum about "her" Meeeedchen. The 28 young graces already come from a pre-selection, which will be shown in the first episodes of the new season . Previously, all participants had to apply for “Germany's Next Top Model” at the castings in ten major German cities.
GNTM 2020 candidates: from classic to crazy, from tattoos to tarot
There are girls between 16 and 27 years of age. The chick this year is the Viennese Anastasija , who has another dream besides her modeling career. The oldest is the administrative assistant Cassandra from Gera. There are classic beauties like Pinar and striking types like Malin , conservative looks like Laura or freaky styles like Mareike , who, according to her own statements, has already spent 24,000 euros.
As always, there are many exciting back stories included . Julia F., for example, has circular hair loss , Daria has been stuttering since childhood. Aline grew up as the "only black man within a radius of 20 kilometers" with a foster family in the Bavarian countryside.
Alina's friend is a professional footballer , Charlotte is very spiritual, believes in astrology and tarot card reading and even has a “prophecy” for Heidi and Lucy used to be a boy. Such details can also determine whether you win or lose. Because for Heidi " personality " always counts.
GNTM 2020 candidates: The winner can win a model contract and 100,000 euros
In addition, there are characters like Tamara, who already describes herself as the “ drama queen ” in the introductory video, and make the show what it is: very big cinema. For the participants, it is not always the "best time of the year" when the rags fly in between, they are separated from their friends and parents for a long time and they have to learn to deal with criticism - but even more so for the audience .
A model contract and prize money of EUR 100,000 await for the hardships. After the departure of Thomas Hayo * before the last season, guest judges will again decide on the well-being and woe of the girls this year. Also present: the models Milla Jovovich , Stella Maxwell and Joan Smalls , the fashion designers Julien MacDonald and " The Blonds " as well as the star photographer Rankin .

GNTM 2020: Season 15 candidates at a glance
Viktoria *: The 22-year-old has a lead over the other candidates - her sister was already in the top 10 last year.
Anastasija *: At 16, the Viennese is the chick in the field.
Aline *: The 22-year-old Bavarian grew up with a foster family in Altötting - she mastered the Bavarian dialect brilliantly.
Nina-Sue *: The graphic designer also comes from Bavaria - from the beautiful Ammersee. There she grew up "very sheltered," says the 19-year-old. Will she survive the goat wars at GNTM?
Cassandra *: At 27, the Thuringian is the oldest participant. Although her father is from Mozambique, she speaks the finest Thuringian.
Tamara *: She loves the drama and admits it openly - with the 19-year-old from Vienna there is a potential Zoff candidate on the program.
Sarah *: The native Senegalese describes herself as "loud and present" - "But that's just my voice," says the 23-year-old. She can still get angry: in case of disorder. If that works out?
Daria *: The 22-year-old stutters when excited. The cause is an exploding socket in her childhood. Can she stay calm at GNTM?
Anastasia *: The 20-year-old Berliner is already a small top model - in Japan. Now GNTM wants to gain a foothold in Germany.
Mareike *: The all over tattooed clerk is also a singer in an indie band. In the past, tattoos were taboo in the model business - whether the 24-year-old has a chance today?
Lucy *: The 22-year-old student was born as a boy. In the meantime, however, she lives as a woman: "I've never felt so comfortable." She deals very loosely with this topic: "I am open to any question, however spaced it may be."
Malin *: Like Mareike, she is a musician. The 21-year-old trainee mainly plays rock music with her band "The Knorke".
Nadine *: According to her own statement, the 20-year-old has "gasoline in the blood". She is a passionate motorcyclist. For this reason alone, she is not a "girly girl". She can't stand a bitch war at all.
Saskia *: The 22-year-old was at GNTM three years ago, now she wants to rock. In the meantime, she had her lips sprayed on. Does it help?
Bianca *: The 18-year-old wants to be a top model - but on her own terms: "I would not want to work with a brand that is known for doing animal testing." She is a vegetarian herself and is committed to environmental protection.
Lijana *: The 23-year-old student from Kassel is a passionate dancer: "Where words stop describing the feelings, I take my dancing for that."
Alina *: Under no circumstances does the 23-year-old just want to be seen as a “player woman”. Her boyfriend is a football player, but the media science student also wants to go her own way.
Johanna *: "I am the curvy this season," says the 20-year-old from Stuttgart. She also wants to encourage other girls to stand by their bodies.
Marie *: At school she was always the "panic maker", whether that works? In addition, the 19-year-old student is "addicted to carrots".
Charlotte *: astrology, commuting and tarot - the 25-year-old is very spiritual. However, this alone will not convince the jurors. Your future looks "but according to many card layers very positive".
Julia F * .: When she was ten, the 20-year-old started an autoimmune disease. The Schweinfurt woman's hair fell out all over. Today she has seven wigs. The different styles should definitely not be a problem for her.
Larissa *: The high school graduate polarizes. "I like to express my opinion," said the 19-year-old. She divided opinions at school. Now she wants to show her haters the right way.
Julia P * .: At just 17 years old, she is the second youngest in casting. But it measures an impressive 1.84 meters. She also lost 20 kilograms within a year and is bisexual - a real surprise bag!
Sarah P. *: The second Sarah lives on an organic farm in Vorau, Austria: "I love my home." But her dream had always been "to conquer the world".
Pinar *: has very high demands on herself. For others she is usually the listener, but she has never admitted a relationship herself. Can that go well?
Vivian *: "As a model, my long legs make me out first," says the 21-year-old make-up artist from Munich. With her participation she also wants to close a sad chapter: the death of her father.
Maureen *: "I didn't come here with the attitude of making new friends," says the confident Viennese. She wanted to concentrate on the essentials on the show.
Laura *: The Düsseldorf woman has already got to know the red carpet. In the south of France, she was once thought to be a model - which led to the first shoot. Now the 19-year-old has caught fire.
