The week starts with a clear announcement: "One has to move out today".

Just a single short sentence – and immediately panic reigns in the feminist enclaves of the feuilletons.

Luckily, the laptops of the outraged haute volée remain untouched, because just a few seconds later it becomes clear: It's not about naked shootings, but about personal bloodletting.

There are still eleven models in Los Angeles, but next week it will be in the top 10. It is even enough to be able to do math to determine: A candidate will leave the model villa today.

So undress.

The TV industry is tough as nails: a Top 10 show with more than 10 protagonists cannot be foisted on the bright German whiner audience, even mathematically.

In the classic way, there are ten people in the top 10.

Another tradition that I have come to love will also remain, so I reassured myself with referee Klum: "Only one can become Germany's next top model".

A sentence that ranks just a little behind "Just because you're blonde, you don't have to be stupid, you can be both" in the eternal GNTM leaderboard.

Similarly, only one will appear on the cover of the industry trade journal "Harper's Bazaar" and only one will be able to appear on Instagram as the GNTM winner 2022 in the future and convert their newly won beauty popularity into one-night stands with football professionals.

In order not to make the format too predictable, the "only one" rule does not apply to all areas.

True to the motto why coach once when you can coach twice, Nikeata Thompson suddenly appeared again at the beginning of the top 10 recruitment week.

In the internal Nikeata Thompson/Thomas Hayo rating (also known to insiders as the "Confidence vs. Attitude Challenge") it is currently 2:0.

Affect eardrops in my eyes

Mercilessly, Nikeata drives the eager-to-learn cadre of potential supermodels to the intellectual abyss.

Chatterbox Sophie even reveals vocabulary deficits after professional criticism of her walk: "I don't know the word affected".

Affected, by definition, is affected, artificial, or unnatural behavior.

It is understandable that the down-to-earth, reserved TikTok wonder Sophie has no associations with it.

Although that's a bit like Mats Hummels saying he doesn't know the word "single".

Vanessa also has problems of understanding.

Actually, she is considered a perfect example of the popular saying “Better green hair than green family ministers”.

The hair color doesn't help with Nikeata's challenges either.

When asked “Where can you wax?” the 20-year-old industrial clerk from the Metzingen outlet paradise looks a little as if she were thinking: “Where can I wax?

Probably in the bikini zone, right?”

Things are more forgiving with the Gleißenebner-Teskey family.

The now best-known Austrians in Los Angeles since Arnold Schwarzenegger live in a harmonious Walk symbiosis: "My mother helped me a lot, she can walk very well".

Martina and Lou-Anne are like most families: mothers teach daughters to walk.

Trampolean on Me

Perfect timing to give the models a walk tutorial because the next day they have to shoot on a trampoline.

On the eve of the Elimination Walk there will probably be a cooking class.

To reinforce the promise that things would be different this year, this set idea is a 1:1 copy from the 2014 season, when Stefanie Giesinger won the finale ahead of Jolina Fust.

To distract from the recycling of ideas, photographer Yu Tsai returns after Nikeata Thompson.

After his rather involuntarily accidental movement tutorial at the beginning of the season on Mykonos, he now controls the learning curves of any successors to Lena Gercke.

However, the result only seems to inspire him to a limited extent: "I don't see any models today".

First suboptimal for the project to find a top model.

Especially for Anita, whose performance was commented on by motivational artist and character icon Yu Tsai with "I can't look, it's a nightmare".

Heidi Klum's tip "You have to make beautiful feet" is of little help to Anita.

As well as?

If she could make feet more beautiful, customers like Chanel would still not book her.

But customers like Shrek.
