Germany's Next Topmodel Cycle 3 is the third season of Germany's Next Topmodel (often abbreviated to GNTM) that is currently airing on German television network ProSieben. The show started airing on February 28, 2008 with 120 semi-finalists in the competition. This cycle's tagline as mentioned in the television previews, is "Sie laufen wieder" ("They walk again" – as in to walk the runway). This season is commercially presented by Volkswagen Tiguan.

Within the first two episodes, the number of contestants has been reduced to 19 finalists. The show is hosted by top model Heidi Klum.

Episode 1: Modenschau in Barcelona

Alternate title: Fashion Show in Barcelona
Title translation: The Big Audition in Cologne
Original airdate: February 28, 2008

Out of 18.217 applicants, 120 girls from all over Germany, Austria and Switzerland came to Cologne to convince the judges of their qualities as Germany's next top model.

The young women had to walk the runway either in a favourite outfit or bathing suit. Moreover they undertook small challenges: Some had to sing, dance or scream in wrath, others were told to advertise a shampoo or even expose the preferences of a cleansing agent for toilets. Meanwhile the other contestants had to show three different emotions (anger, dolor and happiness) in a one-minute-photoshoot.

The judges narrowed down the competition to fifty girls, who flew to Barcelona in a surprise trip the next morning. They were booked for the BREAD & BUTTER – tradeshow for selected brands festival on January 16, January 17, and January 18, 2008. The show was presented by Phillipp Plein, a well-known designer, in the same evening. As most of the girls had not been very experienced in doing a runway show, some of them had severe problems on the catwalk which lead to several pitiable sights. In the end thirty girls reached the next round.

Episode 4: Angels & Demons-Shooting

Alternate title: Haare ab
Title translation: Angels & Demons-Shoot
Original airdate: March 20, 2008

Last week's elimination is shown at the very beginning of this episode. Rubina Radwanski is eliminated due to the inability to express her personality in a photo shoot. Heidi Klum tells Aisha that she has a lot of potential but the judges don't think they are able to bring out the best in her, so she is sent home as well. The judges panel also decides to send Sandra Korte home because her underachievements hamper the progressof the show.

The remaining contestants go to a salon for their makeovers. Gina-Lisa Lohfink and Wanda Badwal, however, complain throughout the entire process. Lohfink is upset in large part because she does not want to have her long white weave cut short. Badwal cries hysterically.

Afterwards the contestants are taken to a fashion store where they have to pick outfits that match their new haircut. Once again Lohfink draws everybody's attention by wrapping herself up in ten articles of clothing. – She is certain that she is allowed to keep everything she wears. Gisele Oppermann and Sarah Knappik are chosen as the challenge's winners. They get to chose a complete outfit for free.

The girls then visit the tanzhaus nrw where personal coach Dr. Stefan Fredrich encourages them to talk about themselves in front of the group. Oppermann acts like a drama queen and cries again.

Eight contestants are given the chance to audition for the leading role in a C&A shoes television commercial; Janina Schmidt wins the modelling job.

For the week's photo shoot, the girls have to pose in pairs of two. Each girl is representing the opposite to her partner. Carolin Ruppert and Jennifer Hof are safe from elimination and get a business class ticket for the plane that will move the contestants to their new home in New York City.

At judging, Aline Tausch is called out for not satisfying the judges' expectation concerning her photo, while Tainá Silva is criticized for her lack of potential. Both girls are eliminated.
