Heidi Klum was raised by her parents, Günther (a cosmetics company executive) and Erna (a hairdresser). In 1991, Heidi enrolled for the national contest 'Model 92', with the chosen winners shown on the Gottschalk Late Night Show, a top German television show with host Thomas Gottschalk, similar to late night shows with David Letterman or Jay Leno in the United States.
