Only five candidates make it to the GNTM final – Lieselotte has to go
It’s a decision that Heidi Klum, 48, certainly didn’t take lightly. From week to week, the competition between the GNTM candidates became stronger, the performance better and the challenges more difficult. But in the end only one can become “Germany’s next top model”. For Lieselotte, 66, this dream has now burst. Together with her daughter Leni Klum, 18, Heidi decided that the best aging woman’s performance was not enough for the final.
Thus, on Thursday, May 26, 2022, five candidates will be in the final. Martina, 50, her daughter Lou-Anne, 19, and Noëlla, 25, Anita, 21, and Luca, 20. For many viewers, throwing Lieselotte out seems to have been exactly the right decision. In the past few weeks, the audience has been demanding that Lieselotte should go. Although she is a likeable woman, her performance cannot be compared to that of the other models. And Heidi Klum also seems to see more potential in the other participants in the semifinals. Nevertheless, fans don’t have to do without the lively pensioner in the final: Lieselotte will be part of the “Top 20” walk.

GNTM candidate Martina shows her wedding dress
At “Germany’s Next Top Model” candidate Martina, 50, can slip into designer robes and haute couture. But none of these dresses will ever be as important as Martina’s own wedding dress. On Instagram, the best-age woman shares some pictures that show her special outfit from back then – and several details are noticeable.
For one thing, it’s the sophisticated dress. For her wedding, Martina opted for a fitted, floor-length dress with an I-line cut that flatters the model’s figure perfectly. The highlights are the arm warmers made of lace and the asymmetrical lace that covers the shoulders. Fans love the look. “You looked so beautiful there,” writes one user:in. But the series of pictures reveals even more: It shows Martina’s daughter Lou-Anne as a small child.
Viewers actually know the 19-year-old model as a self-confident woman. However, in one of the photos, little Lou-Anne smiles at them at the tender age of nine. She slipped into a pink dress and a white bolero for her mother’s wedding. It is these rare insights into the private life of the GNTM candidates that make fans so happy.

Will Lieselotte cancel the photo shoot and risk her place in the final?
Best-Ager-Model Lieselotte, 66, has made it extremely far at GNTM. The pensioner is currently fighting against five other participants for a place in the final. On Thursday, May 19, 2022, fans will finally know who can make it and continue to fight for the title “Germany’s Next Top Model”. The new trailer is already causing speculation among viewers. Is it Lieselotte who misses the finale by a hair’s breadth?
Apparently, the 66-year-old resists the upcoming photo shoot. This takes place at dizzying heights. The models are fixed to a pole that begins to rotate with the slightest movement. Lieselotte doesn’t seem comfortable with the thought alone. “I’ll honestly admit it: I don’t feel comfortable with it,” explains Lieselotte before starting the challenge. A clip on the GNTM Instagram account shows how the best aging woman can no longer hold back her tears. Should Lieselotte actually refuse the photo shoot, it would automatically mean the end for her. Can Heidi Klum’s favorite still get through to it? Fans will see that next Thursday.

GNTM fans have had enough: is the audience boycotting the finale?
Rarely has a “Germany’s Next Top Model” season caused so much attention and criticism. From week to week, the audience is increasingly doubting Heidi Klum’s judgment, 48. There are numerous comments on Instagram in which viewers are angry about the progress or expulsion of some models. Now a large number of users are threatening to boycott the finale and GNTM in general. But how does this happen?
It is candidate Lieselotte, 66, who lures angry TV viewers to the social media platforms. Although many find the pensioner quite likeable, she has no place on the show. The fact that Heidi still lets her continue every week causes incomprehension. In the eyes of the public, more talented models would have to go, while Lieselotte enjoys “puppy protection” from Klum’s sympathy. When the participant Vivien, 22, has to go, the camel’s back seems to have overflowed.
“Slowly it’s getting ridiculous, every week models are thrown out that definitely have potential and didn’t even have a bad week – I’m out of gntm22 [sic]”According to a fan. Another comment reads: “Lieselotte is allowed to mess around episode after episode and then Vivien flies out because she apparently only has one facial expression, but otherwise delivers week after week [sic]? It’s probably just about being able to say later that GNTM is about diversity.” Another fan says: “I just can’t understand Heidi and I’m disappointed with this season!”
