The first episode of Germany's Next Topmodel 2014, starts at Berlin's Tempodrom where out of the thousands who'd had applied and attended casting calls nationwide, 70 of Germany's most gorgeous women fought for the top 25 spots on offer. This year's judging panel along with host Heidi Klum, consists of regular judge Thomas Hayo and new-comer to the top model series, but renowned fashion designer; Wolfgang Joop. After the 25 finalists were chosen, Heidi announced that the girls would be flying to Singapore. Upon arrival to the luxurious Sentosa Island hotel, beds were chosen and friendships forged. The next day, the girls are met down by the pool with Heidi and this week's photographer Christian Anwander for their very first photo-shoot; A bikini shoot. Some girls excel, in particular Aminata, Ivana, Jolina and Nancy while others fall flat. The girls do a runway training afterwards where Nancy and Jolina surprise the judges, but in the end Ivana is deemed best. In the end it was Lisa S. and Luxembourgian contestant Jill who did not impress the judges, and both were eliminated from the competition.
