Germany's Next Topmodel, Cycle 5 is the fifth season of the show that was aired on the German television network ProSieben. The show started airing on 4 March 2010. In difference to former seasons the show saw a significant change as the audition process was completely open this time whereas every model-wannabe got a chance to audition in front of the jury led by Heidi Klum. The winner was 19-year-old Alisar Ailabouni from Schalchen.

The international destinations for this cycle were set in Cape Town, Los Angeles, New York City and Milan.

Original airdate: 4 March 2010

Starting with 23.248 girls at an open casting the Cycle kicks off with an introduction of the two new judges Kristian Schuller, fashion photographer who has already been a responsible for several shoots on the show and Qualid "Q" Ladraa who impresses the applicants by his young looks. Stunt-Woman Miriam and Miss Russia-winner Anna carry the attention as does the forming relationship between Alisar and Nadine. After reducing the number of girls to 42 on the first day the remaining contestants are forced to sleep in a huge dorm in a hall next to the casting room. On their first individual audition in front of the judges the top 42 have to pose on their very first photo shoot having only four frames to impress the judges. After eliminating eleven more girls Heidi announced that the remaining contestants will be on their way to the very first destination of the Cycle.

Original airdate: 11 March 2010

While the best 31 girls from the casting are on their way to Berlin a catwalk challenge is awaiting on their way in the ICE-train from Cologne to Berlin in which the bottom two girls are eliminated halway through. Arrived in Berlin the girls are taken to a photo shoot at Madame Tussauds where they have to pose with the wax figures of Robbie Williams and Johnny Depp where Svea impresses Heidi the most. At the Berlin Fashion Week the remaining girls are booked for the show of fashion designer Anja Gockel. Alisar closes the show in the obligatory bridal dress resulting in a very impressed reaction by the cheering audience. At the end of the show four more girls are eliminated leaving the top 25 in the competition.
