Tessa Bergmeier unpacks in the jungle camp about her time at “GNTM”.
Tessa Bergmeier (33) made headlines in 2009 by showing Heidi Klum (49) the middle finger on “Germany’s Next Top Model”. In the jungle camp, she is now settling accounts with the model mom, because the gesture was said not to have been intended for her.
During the night watch, Papis Loveday (46) talks to Bergmeier about the program. She tells him that she was approached for the show and didn’t apply herself. Then she unpacks about the middle finger scene. «They fooled me! I found that unfair,” she rants. She didn’t show the middle finger to Klum, but to a cameraman. He wanted to film her while she was crying.
Tessa Bergmeier finds hard words for Heidi Klum
Bergmeier was not even aware of the kind of light they wanted to put her in. ‘You made me look like a bitch. That was so unfair. You made me a monster, I wasn’t. Everyone knew me out there and kind of hated me. At that time it was written that Tessa Bergmeier was stealing the show from Heidi Klum,” the model continued. She also has no kind words for Klum: “She’s cold. She has no empathy.”
Papis Loveday has not had a good experience with Heidi Klum either. When he was at “GNTM”, he was always praised for his extravagant outfits. For Klum, however, his clothes were too conspicuous. “She forced me to change because my outfit was too much color for her,” he says. Bergmeier confirms this assertion: «You must not shine more than them. You mustn’t take the attention.”
“Heidi didn’t have a childhood either, it was also drilled”
On top of that. “She laughs at little girls – you have to imagine that. abuse of power. That’s also very little self-confidence. A person who can torment others without any guilt. How can she sleep at night? How many girls she made cry … », continues Tessa Bergmeier. Heidi’s father Günther Klum (77) also met her. As in a sect, he always gathered all the girls around him. “Heidi didn’t have a childhood either, it was also drilled.” Papis Loveday’s conclusion: “She is not the god of the world.” (bsn)
