Everything started with a boring afternoon in the winter of 1991. Heidi Klum flipped through the pages of a magazine with a friend. A coupon caught the girls' eyes: Who filled out it, to the competition "Model '92". The magazine "Petra" organized it with a New Yorker Model agency, in the RTL Show with moderator Thomas Gottschalk.
Heidi Klum, pressed at that time with school, was 18 years old. A Model competition? No. The reasonable Heidi scrolled. But the friend had visions of Heidi on the television as a Model candidate. She coaxed Heidi. Their resistance melted. The coupon lured. Why not try why the luck? Heidi Klum sent the coupon.
Who is Model of the evening? The TV public decided. Week for week. Heidi had made it in and it was time for the exciting final elimination. Heidi Klum pleased the citizens at the television screen just like the specialists of the model industry. Heidi Klum was promoted to the model the week, model of the month and finally to the most beautiful one of the beautiful ones: The 18 year old won the competition "Model '92".
The title changed her life: a Model contract with the New Yorker Top agency "Metropolitan". It ran over three years and guaranteed minimum earnings/services of $300,000, at that time approximately 500,000 Marks.
