BIOGRAPHY Barbara Meier, born on July 25, 1986, in Amberg, Germany, is the winner of the second cycle of Germany's Next Topmodel, a successful German televised modelling contest presented by Heidi Klum. The series was aired from March to May 2007 by the commercial TV channel ProSieben.
Meier didn't originally aspire a career in modeling. Instead, after graduating from school, she enrolled at the Fachhochschule Regensburg in order to study mathematics. While shopping at a local mall, she was invited by a model scout to a casting for GNTM. Out of 16,421 participants in the national casting, she was chosen among the 15 candidates to appear on the TV show. In the course of the show, she had to face a series of challenges in order to outrival her contestants. Even before the end of the show, one of these minor competitions had her win a leading role alongside Heidi Klum in a nationwide TV commercial for McDonald's.
In the last episode, Meier outpaced the other two finalists, brunette Hana and blonde Anni, and was declared winner of the title "Germany's Next Topmodel". The prize included a contract with the modelling agency IMG Models, an appearance on the cover of the German edition of Cosmopolitan in August 2007 and a contract as the face of the next advertising campaign for the clothing company C&A. On June 22, 2007, Meier was a guest on the popular TV show Wetten, dass..?, together with GNTM's 2006 winner Lena Gercke. View GALLERY:
