is undoubtedly one of the most watched reality shows, broadcast in nearly 170 countries around the world. One of the most popular versions is the German one, in which the famous modeling star appears as the host.
Another Pole is making a sensation in the German “Top Model”. Heidi Klum was moved by his story
Poles have long been eager to try their hand at foreign programs. An example is Simone Kowalski, who won the German version of “Top Model” in 2019. Now she is being followed by 21-year-old Maximilian, who appeared at the casting for the latest, 19th edition, making a real sensation.
As soon as he appeared on the catwalk, Heidi Klum did not hide her delight, and during the conversation she eagerly complimented his unique beauty and characteristic facial features. The aspiring model confessed that he comes from Poland, but for some time he has been living in the capital of Austria, Vienna, where he moved to live in peace. His story particularly interested the presenter, who began to ask about the reasons for this decision. What she heard left her stunned.
The “Top Model” participant confessed that he was homeless. The reason turned out to be his orientation
Maximilian explained that the main reason for his going abroad was to escape from . He confessed that not only did his environment not accept his orientation, but he also did not have support from his closest family members. – As a homosexual man, it was difficult for me to come out. I come from Poland, or more precisely, my parents are from there. And as is widely known, Poland is a very Christian country – to be honest.
When he decided to tell his parents that he was homosexual, he was 16 years old. Given their views, he expected they wouldn’t be happy about it, but he didn’t expect it would land him on the street. – This is one of the worst countries in which to be gay you can imagine. So when I turned 16, I was kicked out of my home. I was homeless because of my sexuality, he said, not hiding his bitterness.
He was then supported by his friend, who also persuaded him to take part in the program and makes sure that, despite adversity, he does not give up on his dreams. – Fortunately, I could count on my friend’s support. I’ve been able to sleep at her place for years and spend Christmas with her family. I had a goal to appear in “Top Model” and I did not give up this dream – he said, adding that he was grateful to her for everything she had done for him so far.
